Anyway.
Chapter 10
Random
Sasha felt the wind in her face as she dove down. In miliseconds, she lashed out her fist, just in time to make contact with the Eraser's forhead.
Sasha recoiled with a yelp and swooped up a little higher. She started cradling her hand just when she heard a thud.
The Eraser was on the floor, his head propped up against the wall, his limbs splayed out. He was knocked out, and maybe for a long time.
Apparantly, that was the last Eraser.
There was a silence as everybody's eyes skimmed to the flying Sasha.
"Hey! Iggy, let me at least chew his ankles off!"
Total's voice came from the end of the hall, where a small Eraser stood looking extremely tired and defeated.
"No, because that would be gross. The flesh and blood and peeled skin and all that. And what's your thing with ankles?"
"You didn't sound so faint of heart when you blew up those Flyboys!"
"They were robots!"
"Look, can...can you two just knock me -"
Thud.
That was the last Eraser.
"There. Eat up his ankles while we escape."
Iggy got up and walked away, toward the group.
"Iggy," Total complained. "I like 'em alive and feisty!"
But he suscummed and followed Iggy, his head low.
Everybody let out a groan.
Max cleared her throat moments later.
"So...what was that?"
Max's POV
A thirteen year old kid just randomly flew up and knocked out a tired Eraser without any flying experience at all.
Just after saying she couldn't fly.
Sasha cleared her throat, holding her injured hand, and hovered down. She crumpled her wings in embarassment.
"Well - I, um...you see...I-I saw that girl -"
As she explained, I took a glance at Ruby. She was watching Sasha intently, looking bewildered.
Hardly a scratch on her, I though sullenly to myself.
When she finished, she sulked over to Ruby, who patted her head, smiling.
"So, if she can fly just from watching me, then could everyone else?" Nudge yapped, casting her wide brown eyes in Ruby's direction.
Ruby scoffed at her, still ruffling Sasha's hair.
"Well, if a thirteen year old can do it," she made sure that was italic, "I guess nothing's impossible."
I scowled a warning at her.
For some reason, that set Nudge in the mood to sing.
"My problem isn't that I miss you, cause I don't...!"
The boys sighed.
Nudge Randomness, I guess.
"So..." Fang mumbled as he limped over. "Your job here is done, so can we get moving?"
Nudge was about to scream the chorus when Iggy told her to shut up.
And I sighed, then walked over to the lonely door at the end of the hall. The others followed silently, tired and dirty.
Ruby's flock even came behind without hesitation.
It was quiet, with only our footsteps clicking on the floor.
We would need to rest, of course. But what would happen after that? Were we just going to hang around like before? New York was sweet, but we got some photos taken there...
I wonder how long it takes to get to Illinois from here...
As I was mauling over these thoughts, Nudge suddenly started bobbing her head to the tune blasting inside it. Uh-oh.
"Yeah, you can't go back, it's all in the past, guess you gotta laugh it in!" she screamed into the tunnel, which caused her voice to bounce off everywhere.
Everyone snapped their heads in her direction, stopped, and stared.
"Sorry," Nudge giggled.
I know it's freaking short, but it will break it into the next chapter, okay? Really, really sorry! I promise the next will better.
At least you got some info out of me!
Review even though you hate me!
