I'm really glad im getting good reviews for this story! Thanks to those who R&R!
I Do Not Own Maximum Ride! James Patterson Does…
But Hush Puppy Is Mine
Angel and I collapsed onto our backs into the cool mud. Now blending into the wet earth I didn't think I had to worry about someone spotting us.
The mud war ended with a draw…
Angel was breathing hard while I was…
Don't laugh...
Panting…
I looked over to Angel and smiled. She did the same. Her pearly white teeth contrasted greatly against her mud colored face. It was kind of funny.
"That was fun" Angel said smiling.
'Yes it was hehe, I think we should get back now…' I said as I pulled her up and placed her onto my back.
"Okay" she said getting as tight a grip as she could get being covered with mud.
I dashed as I did before, first on two legs for a while, and then shifted to four legs.
Note to self: Try to shorten shifting time from two legs to four. It might prove to be useful in the future.
I stopped for a moment to pick up the baskets of berries that we had left on the ground earlier.
"Oh" Angel said with a bit of surprise "we almost forgot them."
'No' I corrected her "you almost forgot them, I didn't forget hehe' she sort of laughed as she hoped off to grab the other baskets.
As we walked back to the house, I began to think to myself of how my things are going.
"Today was a fun day… You know it's been hard adjusting to this new lifestyle, but I was starting to like it… But I have enjoying everyday like it was my last. Because you never know what may happen."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Angel and I walked into the house tracking muddy footprints.
Compared to Angel's foot prints; mine were huge. What was I, a size nine? Maybe…But I couldn't tell you; I was wearing make shift sneakers.
They had cut up some old pairs of shoes that didn't fit them anymore and stitched the toes of one shoe to the body of another.
I called them my "Franken boots", but at least it beats walking around barefoot.
But when I run I have a need for speed, it requires me to run on my hands. I usually end up with splinters or rocks stuck in them. It sucked most the time. And they don't make shoes for your hands… Or so I thought.
I got some nice tough leather gloves with a bit of grip on the palm and fingers from an old pair of sneakers; courtesy of the flock.
It was Max's idea.
She saw me running around and when I would come back, I had to painfully pick out objects from the palms of my hand.
I was grateful I had such a nice group of kids to depend on.
Actually most of my clothes were make shift cause of my ears and tail; they had to cut holes in any hat or bottoms so I could be comfortable.
Oh... sorry, I got sidetracked…
Maybe being around Nudge for so long has made me ramble about random nonsense as well.
So anyway back to where we were…
As we walked into the kitchen I turned on the lights, Suddenly everyone except fang yelled "SURPRIZE!"
I was startled by this and fell back dropping my baskets, making assorted berries roll all over the kitchen floor.
Some went flying, pelting the others, making red splotches onto their clothing. Not only that, but the other food that had been laid on the table was thrown into the mix when the berries landed on the plates and bowls causing food to splash and splat up everywhere.
And if you think that's all that happened…Your wrong.
A bit more hilarity will insue before the big surprise is revealed...what do you think it could be?
