Chapter 11
Nudge POV
I walked into the clearing where three largest houses were at. I could see some of the boys of the flock playing football in the yard. None of them would hear me from this distance except one person.
"Iggy!" I hollered as my legs finally gave up and I collapsed into the dirt. I could see Iggy faintly look up then take off running in my direction. The last thing I remember was being picked up familiar hands then I blacked out.
When I woke up I was in a room that I didn't recognize, but I was surrounded by people I knew. Max and Fang were in the door way obviously arguing by the way there hands were moving. Iggy and Ratchet were sitting on one of the couches there eyes fixed on me.
"Max, She's awake" Max twisted her head towards Iggy with a scowl. She glared at Fang once before walking over kneeling by me. Her eyes were stone cold and furious.
"What are you doing here? How did you find us?" She hissed. I slowly sat up rubbing my hurt arm meeting Max's eyes.
"We came back because we want to be in the flock again. We only left because Ashley needed our help with something; she knows how to cure Fang that's why she left. She sent us with an antidote"
"What do you mean by WE? Who else is with you?"
"Gazzy was….Oh my god! I nearly forgot he's in the clearing about a mile from here! We have to help him!" I hurriedly tried to get up but was gingerly pushed back down by Max's hand.
"You aren't moving. I'll send the boys out after Gazzy." She turned looking at the group "Fang, Iggy, Xavier, Ratchet, and Holden you 5 are going out after him. Kate, Star, and Maya you guys are helping me get the little room ready for Gazzy. If he couldn't crawl back here like Nudge did he's pretty bad."
"What can I do Max?" Angel asked looking from Max to me.
"Search Nudge's mind, find out if she is lying" Angel nodded sitting down on the floor by the couch. I sighed sitting up weakly as everyone fled the room.
"Angel. I'm not lying about what I said. Ashley gave us an antidote for Fang Gazzy has it with him. We know Fang's really sick. He shouldn't have even gone out after Gazzy. He should be resting! This disease could ki-"
"Nudge. Relax. Of course I trust you. You're my best friend; I knew you guys wouldn't betray us at all. I knew you to left for a good reason"
"So you forgive us? For going to the school" She nodded giving me a light hug so not to hurt me. Thank god someone trusted me.
Fang POV
The guys and I hiked threw the woods in the way Nudge had come from two hours ago. I could see a small trail of blood lined threw the grass from where Nudge had been walking. Suddenly the trail of blood got darker and heavier then we were face to face with a moving bloody body. It was Gazzy.
His head was looking down and blood was dripping out of his mouth. He was extremely pale and was limping. Plus he was shaking.
"Gazzy" Iggy said nudging him lightly. He stumbled looking up at us; his eyes were blood shot and looked terrible. I caught his upper arm as he almost fell.
"He's in no condition to walk. Iggy grab one arm Ratchet get the other" I ordered coughing lightly. Iggy grabbed Gazzy under one arm Ratchet getting the other one. I walked behind them Holden and Xavier up front.
While we were walking I started thinking about what Nudge had said, the cure. If it really existed I could finally be cured. I wouldn't have to die.
We came up to the house bringing Gazzy inside up to the small room. Nudge sprang off the couch stumbling upstairs to find him. Holden grabbed her under her arms. He helped her up to the room and to his bedside.
Gazzy looked terrible, he was all bloody and I swear one of his legs were broken. was patching up his leg. He looked terrible. Who could have done something like this?
