Chapter 37
We were flying over 1,000 feet in the air. I was devastated. My mom's house was in smithereens. How would I explain this to my mom? I don't have enough money to buy my mom a new house! Let alone food for my own flock. My mom's car pulled slowly into what was supposed to be the drive way. Stopped. Then my mom looked up into the sky to see where we were. She spotted us; she had a relieved look on her face. Then she looked at the exploded house and looked back at me with a red face full of anger. Foe the first time I was scared to death of a human. She stared at Gazzy thinking that he made a bomb and blew the joint up. I flew in front of him saying it was not his fault. Saying it was mine. She looked shocked. Then she said…
"Maximum Ride get down here right now!"
I tucked in my wings ever so slightly to fall.
I touched ground. She stared directly into my eyes.
"Max, how did this happen? Did you do this?"
"Mom, Fang was a robot. I pulled a wire out of his back a voice came that wasn't in my head, then 'this Fang robot will self destruct in 10 seconds.' Then BAM! House blew up. So, yeah, I kinda' did do it."
She had an 'I am so lost' face on her.
Fang's P.O.V.
I had been locked up in this cage for about three days. I found a piece of paper and a pencil to write a note to whoever was beside me to remember when I broke out of this joint. Her name was Morissa. She is one third human two thirds fox, and she has some bird in her, too. She has the hair color of a fox, but a face of an angle and she has wings like me. We talked all the time. And when the white coats come in, we try to stick our feet out and trip them. I still missed the flock though. I miss Max the most. Her beautiful eyes and the way she could read me like a book took my breathe away. I always wonder what she is doing when I'm bored. I always hope she is okay. And the rest of the flock, too. If y'all hadn't picked up the hint, I'm in the school. The bone heads who run this hell whole are going to perform some surgery on me to make my wings stronger. The last time they tried to do something like that Iggy went blind. I'm not going to lose my wings. So when all of them are gone I'm going to bust Morissa and I out of here.
