Yay!! Glad you guys liked the last chapter!! What do you think? Think it could actually happen? I thought about when Fang and Dylan were talking underneath the house and I was like "I wonder if that's what he told him." It was the only thing that I could think of that would make Fang leave. As for Angel, I really hate to think that she's the evil heartless brat that JP made her in the last book. And don't start me on Iggy. That's a whole other topic. I was so pissed at how he acted in FANG. Anyway, I don't own any of this stuff. But review and let me know what ya think. 'Kay Bye.

I sat down on the couch letting this all sink in.

"You tried to kick me out of the Flock so that I couldn't be around Fang and Dylan, so that the vision wouldn't come true?" I asked Angel. I couldn't believe it. The (then) seven year old was trying to save my life.

"That's why I wanted to take over. I wasn't trying to betray you, Max. I was trying to keep you alive. I knew Fang would go with you. You're both miserable without each other." Angel said sweetly with a smile.

"And you left me so that the vision couldn't happen." I said to Fang.

"I couldn't let you die, Max. I know leaving hurt both of us, but that's nothing to how I would have felt if you died." Fang said simply with resolve.

"And Dylan knew all this time?" I asked, pulling myself off of the couch. Neither Angel nor Fang said anything.

I started to storm off to the kitchen when Fang grabbed my arm.

"Max, I know you're mad. And you have every right to be, but he's scared. He's scared of losing you. He did what he did to protect you, even if it was a bad decision." Angel told me, walking out of the room.

"Max, let us do this. Stay here."

I stared at Fang like an idiot. He may as well have said 'Yes Max, I know you're supposed to save the world, but why don't you take the day off? Work on your tan a little? Maybe take a nap, or download some music. It's just saving the world. You can do it next time.'

"Fang, this doesn't change anything. I have to go. I have to do this." I answered, not wanting to mock him. I wanted to remind him that it was my destiny, but that just sounded so cheesy. I knew he was doing it because he cared, but this was my mission. I was the one with the voice in my head. And despite any vision that Dylan may have had I knew I stood the best chance of surviving what was to come. If not, it was a simple numbers game. One life for the lives of millions was worth it, even if it meant the pain and suffering of my family and friends. Oh yeah, and my death.

But I had to do this. I had to complete my mission and save the world.

"Please." Fang asked quietly, one more time.

I hung my head guiltily, but I refused to change my mind. I looked at him one more time but shook my head. I could tell his was upset, but this is Fang we're talking about so of course he wouldn't say anything.

"Let's go! Time to move out!" I called grabbing my pack and heading for the door.
