Sam's head snapped around, and we both stood up.
"You don't think," she whispered.

I couldn't say. I didn't know.
"Let's warn the others," I whispered.
We took off running for the house.

I kept hearing it. The droning.

Then, I saw why.

Flyboys. And tons of them.

"No!" I shouted.
Sam looked up and saw them. "Come on!"

We ran through the doors.

"Flyboys!" I shouted as loud as I could.

Everyone ran in the living room.

"What?" Ella asked. She grabbed Iggy's arm.
"I'll be fine," he promised.

"No," Mom said softly. "No."
"Max," I said firmly. "Come on."

Iggy kissed Ella quickly. "Trust me."
She started crying, but nodded. "Be safe."
"Mom, Max, Ella, get out of the house! If they come in here and start looking, you don't need to be in here!" I said frantically. "We'll call you!"
They nodded and ran out the back way.

We all burst through the front door, ready to kill.

"What were you two doing out here?" Ally asked quickly.

Sam held up her left hand, and they all smiled.

"I knew it," Iggy said. "I knew it when you two walked out alone."
"Focus!" Seth snapped.

We all took off.

Sam grabbed my hand, and she looked nervous.
"It'll be okay," I promised.

She just nodded.

"Long time no see," I said darkly.
"We've come for her," the leader said in its monotone voice.
"Who?" I asked icily.

"The one beside you," it said.
"Ally?" I asked as I pointed to Ally.

It better not say no.
"No," it said.
"I don't think so," I said through clenched teeth.

The Erasers all circled around us, and Angel screamed.
"No!" I shouted. "Angel, Gazzy, Nudge, go!"
They gaped at me, but when they saw the fierceness in my eyes, they agreed.
"Ally," I said firmly.

"Hell no. I'm nineteen, and older than you. You can't tell me what to do," she said firmly.

"Sam," I pleaded.
"No," she said simply.

I sighed. "I guess we'll just have to take them down then."
Four jumped on Seth, and they stabbed him. He screamed out in pain, and he started falling.
Ally frantically flew after him, and I started thinking.
We'd be better off on land.

"Come on," I whispered to Sam and Iggy. We shot towards the ground and gracefully landed.

The Flyboys…not so gracefully.

Sam frantically looked for everyone else, but it was just me, her, and Iggy.
I backed into Iggy's back, and we hit knuckles.

"Protect Sam," I pleaded.
He nodded. "With my life."
Sam roundhouse kicked one in the spine, and it went down.

"The same weak point," I whispered to Iggy. He nodded, and we started fighting.

It felt like we had fought for hours, but we were still totally outnumbered.

Sam screamed out in pain, and I saw a knife sticking out of her arm. She pulled it out, and before she could heal herself, at least ten grabbed her and pulled her back.

I growled. "Stay away from her!" I shouted.

A bunch of them came behind me, and they pulled me back.

I kicked two that were behind me, and I started flinging some into a wall.

More came and took there place. Then, even more.
They grabbed my legs and arms, and they held me perfectly still. I felt something hard collide with my head, and then it all went black.

"Fang!" I heard someone yell frantically.

Why can't I see?

Oh. My eyes are closed.

I opened them slowly, and I saw seven concerned faces surrounding me.

Seven? Don't we have nine people other than me?

There's Mom, Ella, Gazzy, Nudge, Angel, Max, Seth, and Ally…

"Where's Sam?" I asked as I sat up quickly.

They all jumped back.
"I thought she went inside," Ally said slowly.

"Iggy!" I said quickly.

I saw tears start streaming down Ella's cheeks.

"Damn it!" I shouted. "This can't be…" tears stared pouring down my cheeks.
Max scoffed. "Well, if you two hadn't mated, this wouldn't be so—"

"Shut up!" I screamed. I pinned her against the wall. "Just shut up! I've had enough! This is bad enough! You just have to find a way to make everything worse! Max, just can it! Look, I already get this is my fault!"

"Fang, chill out," Seth said behind me.
I turned and looked at him. "Chill out?" I asked through clenched teeth. "Sam is gone, and you expect me to chill out?"
Tears were still streaming down my cheeks.

"She's my sister, but do you see me freaking out and screaming at everyone?" he asked.

"She's my mate. I can't live without her!" I shouted. "What do you think it's like for me?"
"Which goes back to what Max was trying to say," he said coldly.

I narrowed my eyes at him. "Don't. Start," I hissed.

He shoved me. "Watch me!"

I tackled him, and I pinned him on the ground. I punched him in the nose, and I heard it snap.
We started rolling, and he kneed me in the stomach.

I shoved him off of me, and we both started to stand up.

We just ended up back on the ground.

"Stop!" Ally yelled. "This isn't helping Sam and Iggy!"
I stood up and sighed. "She's right," I whispered.

"We should try to figure out what to do," Ally said firmly. She hugged Ella. "We'll find Iggy. I promise."

Ella nodded. "And Sam."
Ally nodded. "They're probably at the same spot."

She smiled. "Thanks."
I fell to my knees, and I just cried into my hands.

My baby was gone!
