A/N: today, i read a story about someone exploding a grape in their microwave. I actually know how to do this, cut a grape in quarters, take two of them, pat them dry, and put them next to each other on a folded paper towel. Then put the paper towel in the microwave and PUT A GLASS JAR OVER IT (this thing makes FIREBALLS) and microwave it for one minute; it will spark, and fireballs will hover at the top for a few seconds. :D if nothing happens, the grape was a dud. Try again. MLIA
^_^ I know what I'm doing today!
Chapter Twelve
Max's POV
I don't know for 100% what Sam and Iggy were talking about during lunch at McDonald's but I pretty sure knowing Iggy, it probably had something to do with bombs. Then again since Sam is totally trigger happy she probably is planning to teach Iggy, THE BLIND KID how to shoot. Not a good idea.
Angel, sweetie, can you please tell me what Sam and Iggy are planning?
Don't worry about it. Angel said happily. You could practically hear her happiness.
Yeah. Just by you saying that is making me freak out more.
Don't worry, be happy! Oh great Angel has started singing. Joy.
I looked up and realized that Angel was singing out loud and everybody else was just staring at her.
"Hahaha. Wow Angel." Sam was smiling and trying not to laugh.
Angel stopped talking and focused on Sam. When I say focused I mean tracking, like her flight speed and flight pattern.
Angel, what are you planning?
She didn't say anything but I could still tell what she was planning. Just like I thought, Angel flew up and quickly and tapped Sam's feather with her own. Then Angel quickly banked to the left away from Sam and spiraled down, counter clockwise.
Then you could see Sam grin and then she spiraled clockwise downward following Angel.
I looked up and saw Fang with one of his rare smiles. It was one of those smiles that made you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I felt myself blush deep crimson.
To try and cool down plus get Angel and Sam back I angled downward and tucked in my wings & arms. I started to barrel roll to the left. When I did stop I was about to fall on Sam.
"Crap!" I yelled. Sam looked up. Seeing me about to collide with her, Sam quickly yelled and started to dive again too. I rapidly pulled out of my dive and a few seconds later Sam did the same.
By this time Angel was already back up with the guys and, of course, they were all laughing their heads off when we both got back to their altitude.
"Angel, don't ever pull a stunt like that again." Sam said annoyed. Apparently she doesn't like brushes with death as much as we do. And apparently she wanted to take my line and also my little lecture. But at least I don't have to act like the bad guy.
"Okay I might stop." She replied, still laughing.
"You might or you will, Angel?" I said cutting into this since I was the leader of this flock and, like the vice principal of a school, it was my job to deliver the punishment.
Angel could tell I was serious especially since she then replied with a, "Yes ma'am." and a salute.
There. Problem solved. I hoped. But knowing my life was never that simple nor would it ever be the problem would probably never be solved.
"Let's just keep moving." Sam said and re-angled herself back into course.
And so we kept moving. We flew for the rest of the day because we all had way too much energy. It's like we were all on a sugar high or something. Maybe it was something in the food they gave us. Although why would some random dudes at McDonald's put some random crap in our food? I have no idea. At least we all are having enough energy so we don't have to take any extra breaks.
By nightfall we were about to cross the state line into New York. That was good news because Nudge was super excited to go shopping at a New York store because apparently everything in New York is 6 months ahead of the rest of the country. It's also the same as movies which is why Angel and Gazzy want to go to the movies. Fang and Sam were pretty indifferent and Iggy didn't really care because, as he pointed out bitterly and many times, he couldn't see anything.
Yet, he would always say so softly afterwards. I don't know if I should be worried about Iggy going to some lab coats to try and find a new pair of eyes but I don't think he was that desperate because it was the lab coats that made him blind in the first place. Still I was really worried about the flock.
The voice told us it was too dangerous to go to New York from some unseen danger that the voice wouldn't actually tell me. Now a few weeks later all of a sudden New York is safe and we can go.
What happened? The all important question was swimming around my head while we landed and made camp for the night in a small wooded area.
That be all. Sorry it's been awhile since I posted but I got really busy with band camp and practice. Plus I had a little bit of writer's block. Read and Review plz! ^.^
