Hey all,
Sorry I haven't posted in a while. Every time i had tried, the Document Manager was down. Stupid thing.
Any way, just to let you know, i cried when i reread the 4th chapter of the sequal. It is soooooo romantic, all i could think was, "Man i wish that was me". Of course i won't tell you what it was about. That would completely spoil everything.
I was also terribly disapointed with no coments on the new story summery. Not one. If you don't want me to write another story, just say it.
Any way a few questions.
Q: I know you said Fang and the girls wouldnt be reunited for awhile but do mean awhile as in one chapter? two chapters?
A: Ok, ok. They meet agian on chapter 25... but they don't officaly reunite until chapter 27. Something for you to pounder over. No more questions on that subject.
Q: How many chapters are left?
A: Chapter 27 is the last chapter but there is also a epoligue.
Q: I don't know if you did this on purpose but you totally messed up their descriptions. Iggy has really light blue eyes (most blind people do) and strawberry blond hair. And Gazzy has blond hair blue eyes because he was related to Angel. I not sure if you wanted that to change because of the differences you made, but I just wanted to point that out for you.
A: Umm... yeh thanks for pointing that out FuzzyLogic. I actually only have the third Maximum ride book and it has been a while since i had read the first book. I knew Gazzy had Blond hair, but i guessed that Iggy had brown hair (I don't really know why, it's just that's what i picture). I wanted to make Iggy and Gazzy similar, so i made them with brown hair. Umm also does any one know what color Fang's hair is?
Q: Hey are you going to make gazzy and angel brother and sister? If you aren't what kind of relationship? Like brotherly\sisterly,close friendship,or a romantic relationship?
A: Great question. Gazzy and Angel are not brothers and sisters. Gazzy's brother is Iggy. At the moment, Gazzy and Angel are like brother and sister, but that might change as they grow older.
Also, those who were confused about why Fang didn't reconize where he was is becuase seeing things from Max's point of veiw is far different from seeing the real thing. It's just like if you see a movie about Rome, then you go to Rome, you get this whole different veiw.
Any way. Please Review and Enjoy

Angel Love
Chapter 21: The World
Fang POV
Changes have happened to me so fast that I couldn't even blink.
I think I have forgotten how to speak English. I have started to practice again, talking to the wall about me life. Gazzy and Iggy first thought I was mad, but when I told them I needed to practice, they now took no notice.
I was still feeling the waves of pain pass through my body every second. Sometimes I wouldn't feel it for a minute or two and I would think that it was gone. But it would come back twice as hard.
Gazzy and Iggy were constantly finding ways to amuse themselves. They gambled a lot, mostly with feathers. I had to admit that they were very good at guessing. Gazzy was even swapping feathers for scales with there next door neighbor. They each had a pile of collected items at each corner. Mostly feathers, but some scales and snake or lizard skins.
Occasionally guards would come and take Gazzy or Iggy away. They would come back unconscious. They haven't come for me yet, which I was glad. It hasn't quite sunk into me that what ever I was becoming I wasn't going to become human again.
I wasn't getting any sleep. Firstly because of all the pain and secondly because I was grieving to much over Max, Angel and Nudge. Every time I did go to sleep, I would dream of them. Mainly Max. it was like my brain was trying convince myself that I should be thinking of all the good things in my life, but I would always wake up crying and wishing that I could never sleep.
I was still trying to convince myself that Max, Angel and Nudge were alive, safe and happy, but as days slowed without them, hope was beginning to fade. I began to stop eating, until Gazzy noticed. Now he and Iggy force me to eat. Most days I would sit in the corner and hug my knees. Sometimes Iggy and Gazzy would sit with me and listen to my stories. Gazzy's knew wish is to try Chocolate, one memory I had shared with him and I think Gazzy is already addicted. Gazzy was the one who asked questions and Iggy would just listen and observe. Sometimes he would ask a question Gazzy had missed out on.
What's the world? Iggy had asked me one day or night when Gazzy was asleep. You have to rely on the aisle lights for night and day and even then you can never be sure.
The world is what we live on. I said a little strained as a wave of pain rolled over me.
What do you mean?
I couldn't say anything for a bit. This wave of pain was stronger and I knew if I opened my mouth I would scream. Iggy waited patiently, until I could answer.
Well… this building is on the surface of the world.
Is this… building… the world? Iggy asked.
No, no, no… the building where in is only a very small fraction of the world. Very small.
I sent him an image off Google earth of the world from outer space. I zoomed in on a large factory I had done a project on, showing how large the earth is compared to the factory.
The factory is probably the size of this building. I said looking at Iggy. I ignored another wave of pain.
Iggy raised his eyebrows of his unseen eyes. Wow… that is heaps of space.
I gave Iggy an image of what I thought the world would be like compared to this cramped cage. Iggy gave a sad smile.
It's heaps of room to fly. Iggy whispered sadly his eyes dropping.
I looked at the poor blind boy. It suddenly came to me what it must be like growing up in a world in a cage. How sad and cramped you must be. How you wish for a change. I don't know what it's like. Iggy and Gazzy have been through this all there lives. Max has too.
I began to realize what it must have been like for Max to escape. What it would have been like to fly for the first time. To breath fresh air. To smell flowers. To see the sky. To see something other than grey walls and black iron bars. To feel grass. See the Sun rise. Watch the stars fall. Hear birds sing. And even to be able to spread your wings. To be able to stand.
These were things Humans took for granted. Space. Freedom.
You're going to see it one day Iggy, I said to him smoothly.
Iggy's eyes snapped to mine see straight through me. What?
Some day, I'm going to get you out of here. When I become what ever I become I promise to show you the world. And Gazzy too. Even if it is the last thing I do.
It was the absolute truth. Gazzy and Iggy should have there own memories of freedom. Not just my second hand ones.
Iggy looked at me. You mean it?
Of course I mean it. I whispered to him.
Iggy hugged me tightly. Almost too tightly. If he hugged me any tighter I think I would have broken a rib.
But the thought counted. After I was healed I would escape from here. Find Max, Angel and Nudge, take Iggy and Gazzy with me and find some place where we would all be happy and safe.
Fang wake up.
I could feel I was on the edge on consciousness. I was debating whether or not I should go back to sleep. I was deathly tired, yet I didn't want to be dreaming of Max and wake up in tears.
FANG!
I was awake. My eyes shot open. I was lying on my stomach. I spun into a small crouch. Whoa, that was fast. How did I do that so fast?
Iggy and Gazzy were staring at me. Well Gazzy was staring at me like I had suddenly grown another head. Iggy was emotionless. But I felt images of what Gazzy had just seen pass into Iggy's mind. Iggy's jaw dropped.
What? I asked.
Both Gazzy and Iggy didn't say anything. Gazzy was the first to speak out of the two of them.
We know what you are becoming, Gazzy whispered quietly.
My eyes widened. What… how… what am I becoming?
Touch you back. I barely heard Iggy speak.
I was slightly scared. Terrified would be the appropriate word. I slowly drifted my hands behind my back.
It was soft and light and I just about vomited in shock when I realize what they were.
Feathers.
I'm… a bird?
My eyes rolled to the back of my head as I fainted.
