I have no excuse for why I haven't updated in a while... I'm sorry. BUT I'm in such a good mood today that I randomly put together a short chapter for y'all awesome readers because i'm feeling awesome.

Why is it that everyone decides to disappear and leave me alone? Seriously, the entire group just up and left one day (I think it was day anyways) and left me to entertain myself in the boring sewers.

I didn't have anything to do since well…. There honestly aren't that many interesting things to be done in the sewers in case you didn't realize that. I went up top to mill around outside and stretch my wings a bit. Even though the world had ended, it was still nice to fly around every now and then.

I was standing in between two houses looking at the road in front of me that led to a park a few blocks away. I shook my shoulders some and loosened my wings, feeling my body instantly relax from having them out. I stretched my arms and shook my legs a little since it'd been a while and took a running start, kicking off the ground right before I ran into the park.

I know people dream about flying and think about how amazing it would be, and sure you have planes and stuff. But that's honestly a horrible comparison to actually feeling the wind rush of your feathers rustling them like leaves in the fall, or running through your hair wiping it around like when you're driving with the windows down.

Feeling the sun on my face I flipped so I was coasting, putting my hands behind my head and crossing my feet at my ankles like swimmers who just float. It's weird flying like this but you eventually get used to it. I stayed like that for a while until I heard laughing from up above.

I hovered for a minute and waited as a cloud parted enough for me to make out the gasman chasing Iggy around, seeing them dart back and forth. I rushed up there to join in and nearly froze when going through the cloud. I'm not sure why people want to land on a cloud. 1 they aren't fluffy. 2 they cannot support your body mass because it's made of water…. It's cold and wet and you will instantly fall through it before you even realize that you were near a cloud to begin with. It's not fun.

I got closer to Gazzy as he backed away slowly from where Ig had been a minute ago. I slowly got closer, angling our wings so they didn't whack into each other, and reached out to tickle him. Laughing when he fell a couple feet and screamed from the sudden action.

"Max that isn't funny!" he flew up to my spot again and glared at me, putting his fists on his hips and sticking his face out some in an adorable attempt to be angry.

"I thought it was pretty damn hilarious." I say as I ruffle his hair some. "Where's everyone else?"

"They went for supplies, Angel and I got bored so we asked Ig to take us flying for a while. We didn't want to wake you up considering…" He fiddled with his hands and looked down, not wanting to mention Fang's death. Either out of respect, or because he couldn't bring himself to say it.

"We all lost him Gaz. Not just me, but it's okay because I'm still here and I'm still going to do everything in my power to protect you guys forever okay?" I put my hands on his shoulders and force his chin up so he's looking at me, giving me a silent nod he reaches out and folds his wings in, attempting to hug me in mid-air.

"I miss him Max…" I hug him tightly wanting to protect him from everything and stroke his hair some before responding. "I miss him to Gaz… More than anything. Let's get back and find something to eat alright?" I feel him nod and start dropping altitude, still hugging Gazzy close, when we touch the ground again I let him go but still keep an arm around his shoulder. Walking back to case de sewers to find some grub and regroup with the rest of my dismembered family.

It's not to long like I said, it's just a short filler type chapter to let y'all know i'm still here. Anyways, I have a couple ideas that i'm going to be putting into play soon that will hopefully make this a little better to read. I'm working on another story also... I'm going to post it when I finish it though. So I don't have to worry about the updating crap. R&R please?
