Nudge shrugged. "I already know someone named Angel,"
The boy frowned. "Well, Angel isn't actually my real name. I just use it as an alias."
"Well, I use Nudge as an alias, too. My real name's Monique. What's your real name?"
"...Warren,"
She shrugged again. "Eh, it's an okay name, but I can see why you'd wanna use an alias,"
"...My full name is Warren Worthington III,"
She gasped. "You don't mean that you're related to that rich guy who bought everything in New York,"
"...He's my father," he sighed, and sat down on a nearby rock. "He hated the idea of me having wings. He even tried to take away my wings, but I rebelled.*" He put his head in his hands.
She sat down next to him. "That sounds terrible. I never knew my parents. I mean, I saw my mother once, but that could have been anyone. However, Iggy met his parents, but they just wanted to make money off of him,"
Warren looked up. "What did you say?"
"I never-"
"I heard that part. Who's Iggy?"
"One of the f- I mean, one of my friends,"
"Is he... like us?"
Nudge nodded. "Well, he's blind, but he had wings and can fly, yeah,"
"...Do you have other friends like us?"
She nodded again. "Four others,"
Warren's eyes widened.
Nudge smiled at him. To him, this was probably like his birthday and Christmas rolled into one, at Disney World. He was discovering not only one person with wings like him, but six! This was enough to make any alone winged person sure that there was hope in the world.

* (He even tried to take away my wings, but I rebelled.") I decided to add that into the story. I know that's from the third movie, not the Evolution TV series, but I wanted to add that, to expand more on Warren.
