I was curled into a tight ball. My head on Felix's chest, my knees brought up to my chest. I tightened as I heard another scream and whimpered slightly. '' She'll be ok.'' Ally reashured me. But I wasn't reasured. What if it goes wrong? What if she's hurt?
I tried to take my mind off of the screaming Flick and watched the people around me. Ally and Nudge were playing a game with Gazzy and Angel on the floor, obviously letting them win. Fang, Iggy, and Max were on the other plain mocha couch. Jay and Flint were upstairs, where I should be. I can't help Flick from down here.
I shifted, making a move to get up, but Felix held me tight against his chest. ''You can't help her Shut.'' He said. I moaned.
'' Here, let's read-'' I stopped him. My eyes widend in a no. I hoped no one else had heard. '' SHUT GET IN HERE!'' Jay shouted. I bolted from my seat, taking the stepps four at a time.
My heart was pounding throught my entire body as I entered Flicks room. She laid on the bed, blood around her thighs and stomach. Her breaths were sharp, uneaven. She held a small lump of pink blanket in her arms. All four of them looked exsauhsted. Even Mrs. M. ''Hey.'' Flick murmered softly as I walked over to Jay's side of the bed. His brow was blanketed in sweat a small ghost of a smile on his lips. Flint was still clutching his sisters hand, keeping it from tremballing.
'' Shut, meet your god daughter. This is Trudence. Trudence this is auntie Shut.'' Flick rasped as Jay made room for me. I smiled into Flick's eyes. '' What is she?'' I asked. '' Shark. Like her father.'' She replied with a grin. Jay grinned proudly, but his was killed by Flint's glare.
I saw the gills on Trudence's neck and smilled bigger. Trudence was beautiful. She had light brown hair, with for what I could see for there wasn't much hair, natural streaks of blonde glistening through her hair. Her eyes were open, staring at me. Both were a light shade of violet, but the left eye had a long, plump strike of blue. A long line cutting strait through her violet, through her pupil, and to the other side4 of her eye. She was beautiful.
'' She's perfect.'' I gasped. Flint and Jay's smile widened. ''Here.'' She handed the babay to me. I held the small body in my arms, cradeling her against my chest. ''Maybe I do want kids.''
''NO!'' All four shouted at once. '' Not now.'' I added. They relaxed, but Mrs.M just barley.
'' I love you.'' Jay murmered to Flick. ''Love... You...'' She started gasping, clutching her chest. ''Oh no! Shut get the baby out of here. Send up Iggy!'' Mrs. M gasped. I was at war with myself. Flick looked at me, pale and thin as a ghost. I saw the doubt flickering in her eyes. I screeched and ran down the steps, holding the babay tight so she wouldnt get hurt.
''IGGY!'' I screeched. Iggy and Max bolted in. ''Max take thwe baby! They nweed nwyou upstairs!'' The words stumbled out of my mouth. I was barley able to understand myself. ''Whats wrong?'' Nudge asked as Max and I walked in. I shook my head.
Flick think's shes going to die.
I froze. ''What Angel?'' I asked. She nodded. My eyes widened in terror. I raced back upthe stairs, my feet only hitting ground three times. I burst through the door.
'' Whats wrong?'' I asked. ''She lost alot of blood.'' Iggy barley managed to croak. Jay and Flint's faces were ghostly white, but Flick looked worst of all. Her usually tanned skin was snow white, whiter then snow. Her eyes shut, her chest barley rising and falling.
'' We need blood. Sh- she's O negative. Is anyone in the flock O negative? Can we even give her bird blood?'' Mrs. M asked. Iggy shook his head no. Flint and Jay's heads shot up. I'm O negative.
'' I am Mrs. M! Give her my blood.''
I was sat down. Everything happened in a quick blur. My blood was taken, and I was pushed out the room. I staggered back, my eyes dropping and my head throbbing. I scooted on my butt down to the floor my pulse vibrating against the wall, barley.
'' She could die!''
'' So could Flick!''
'' I don't care as much about your sister as my own!''
''I'm killing you if she's hurt. ''
''Shut we need more blood.'' Iggy said softly. He drew more.
My entire body seemed to become frail, and glass. I felt like one, by one, by one, my insides were falling, crashing and burning. illing me. A dull burn flowered in my head. My head rolled my body went limp. ''SHUT!'' He called to me. But I was already in vodo land.
