A/N: Here's chapter 20!

Max's POV:

Fang and I were with the whitecoat doctor again. I was in my seventh month, and the doctor was seeing what the gender of my baby was going to be.

"Do you want to know now?" she asked. The doctor we had had before was on sick-leave, so we had a new, woman doctor.

"Yes," Fang said, irritated.

"You're going to have a baby girl!" said the whitecoat. "Of course, you'll be able to keep her with you for a while, but we'll need to do the experiment before she's a year old."

"You're going to steal my baby from me before she's even a year?" I asked sadly.

"Well, if we did it any later she's surely die. You're not going to be able to name her, though. The School will pick a nice name for her," said the whitecoat.

"Do you have a heart at all?!?" I screamed. "Haven't you ever had a child?!?"

"Max, calm down," Fang said, grabbing my arm. I ignored him and advanced towards the whitecoat who was cowering against the wall.

"No!" I yelled at him, turning back towards the whitecoat. "I'm going to have a baby so you won't go after my first children, but at least let me name her!" I was crying now, and I had started to throw punches at the whitecoat. Her eyes rolled slightly as I hit her, and I felt blood start to flow beneath my fingers.

"Max!" I heard Fang yell behind me, pulling me off the heartless whitecoat. "Max, be careful!" he yelled at me, one of his arm wrapped carefully around my large stomach. I then realized that my fighting might hurt my un-born baby girl. My fighting might kill her. She'd be better off, I thought. My baby would probably be better off dead before she was born, then born into a world where she would probably die before her first year.

I turned into Fang's arms and started crying. He held me and picked me up, carrying me back to our room.

Liyla's POV:

"May I please see my brother, Cody?" Angel asked the military general.

"Your names?" asked the general, looking from Angel, to Jack, to Fnick, to Trixie, to me, and back again.

"I'm Angel, and this is my son, Jack, his girlfriend, Liyla, her brother, Nick, and his girlfriend, Trixie," said Angel, pointing to each of us as she said our names.

"Ages?" asked the general after he wrote down our names.

"I'm 24, my son is 14, and Liyla, Nick, and Trixie are all 13," said Angel.

"You're son in 14 and you're 24?" asked the general, confused.

"He's adopted," Angel told him, and the general nodded.

"Agent Cody is in his normal room, Miss. You and your son and his friends can go see him."

Angel led us to one of the back rooms. It was very secluded, and I saw warnings on the door in front of us.

"Gasser, are you in there?" Angel asked, knocking on the door softly.

"Angel? Is that you?" asked a male voice from inside. "Come in!"

Angel opened the door and I saw a blond-haired boy who could have been her twin.

"Hey Jack, hi Angel. Who're these?" asked Gasser.

"This is Liyla, her brother, Fnick-" Jack started to introduce us, but Gazzy cut in.

"Fnick?" he asked, his eyes going wide. He looked at Angel, who nodded.

"He and Liyla are twins. And this is Trixie, Fnick's girlfriend," Jack finished.

"Liyla and Fnick are twins, and their parents are none other then our old friends, Max and Fang. Trixie is Nudge and Iggy's daughter," Angel told her brother.

"Trixie, when you get back to your parents, ask your father how to make a bomb for me, 'kay?" Gazzy asked.

"Um, okay," Trixie agreed, confused.

"If he asks why, just say his old partner is in the buiz," Gazzy said with a sly smile. "So, where are they? Are they alright?"

"Gasser, the School's taken them back. They're with the School again," Angel said softly.

"WHAT?!?" the Gasman exploded. "I thought we had destroyed them!"

"Uncle Gazzy, chill," Jack said. "That's why we're here. We need help to get them back," Angel told him.

"Then let's go!" he yelled. "I can get a sick-leave and they'll let me go. They can't fire me, I'm their best bomber and bomb-builder," Gazzy said.

"Okay, just tell them you're leaving and we can go," Angel said, leading us back out of the room. "And, just so you know, leader of this flock is Liyla," said Angel with a smile.

This flock, I wondered. I was the leader of a flock? Heck, I was a leader at all? That was so awesome. I saw Jack throw a sideways smile at me which I returned warmly. Or, at least, I was going to smile back before I saw Fnick glaring at me from behind Jack's head. Evidently Jack saw something in my expression and turned to look the other way at my brother, whose dark wings had sunlight glinting off of them and Jack's russet wings looked like they were the color of flames in the setting sun.

'Liyla,' said Jeb.

Wow, I haven't heard from you in a while.

'Liyla, sorry about what you're about to feel, but you need to be in...that state so I can show you something.'

What state? I was thinking when I felt it. I felt as though my head was about to explode, fireworks played behind my eyes.

"Jack!" I heard myself scream from far-off. I felt his strong arms wrap around me just as my wings closed on their own before I blacked out.

A/N: Yup, I just did that. Liyla just had a brain-attack. And now you know why I want suggestions for a girl's name. Please review!
