Chapter 13
Tory
"Tory," Ella asked, "do you think you could come over to my house after school for a bit today?"
I nodded. "Sure."
"And bring the guys too, if you want."
"Okay." It was a little weird for Ella to say that, but I let it pass.
Hi took the news best. "Ella asked me to visit her?"
"All of us," I said. "I have no idea what for."
Ben shrugged. "Might as well go."
That afternoon, the four of us met up with Ella, who led us to her house. "My dad isn't home," she explained. "He's working in California right now, but my mom's home."
Just then, six silhouettes spiraled closer and closer to us. "What are they?" Hi wondered.
The leader was... a girl with large wings. "It's the flock," I said. "They're here." Then I yelled "Max!"
I'm back! And school's out!
