Sorry I took so long, I've been away from civilization for some time now so there was no way I could have updated. Another short chapter but, hey, I'll put up another chapter tommorow. And yes we are almost at the first kissing scean, and I've read it and re-read it over again, so it should be okay. Well then without futher a do, chapter 11.....

Chapter 11
This was a scary week. I have seen Max at her best and at her worst. But that was nothing compared to the mood she was in this week. We all stayed as far away as possible from her.
We were also moved to a new safe house. The air was much better here, but not amazing. We all just flew around all day and did the tricks the hawks taught us. Total failed to keep up. Weird little flying mutt.
One day we came in for a break and maybe some lunch. Flying burnt off calories like nothing. But what we found when we got there very nearly gave me a heart attack.
Max was holding a wooden spoon in the kitchen while something boiled away on the stove. My breath immediately stopped in my lungs afraid of what I would smell.
"No she's cooking." I heard Max's mom answer the Gasman's question. She obviously found our fear of Max's cooking funny, but she hasn't had to eat what Max had whipped up for the flock.
I murmured to Iggy that he should order pizza. He nodded in agreement.
"Cooking…food?" Nudge asked. She was as scared as I was. I was just better at hiding it.
With Max being cranky and all, she snapped at us.
"Yes, I'm cooking food, and it's great, and you're going to eat it, you twerps!"
And we did eat it. And much to my amazement, it was good.
Max was cooking three days more, then Iggy broke the news to her.
"We took a vote," Iggy said. "We all want to try out the school."
She was shaking with anger, she was so mad. But she held it in. She looked at us each in the eye, and shrugged. She was so burnt up about our mutiny, but she was letting us go anyway.
See how amazing she is?
Alright, come back tomorrow for another chapter. Thank you for all your support. :D
