Hey everyone. I am feeling much better now. I still have no idea what I was sick with, but I'm okay now. I got caught up on all of my makeup work and everything is all good. So, I would like to thank you guys. Your reviews made me feel better while I was feeling lousy. Now, I am trying really hard to start my new Harry Potter fanfiction, 'It Takes Two'. I don't want to start until I get a few chapters written though. Like I said, it is about Fred and George Weasley and a girl named Alyssa Carter. It's set during Prisoner of Azkaban which would be Fred and George's fifth year. If you have any ideas for characters or chapters or pranks or anything, please let me know. I already have a couple friends for Alyssa, but more characters would be great. Descriptions of said characters would be lovely too. Anyway, that's enough of that. Back to business. Read 'Dark Blue' and 'Maximum Ride: Wings vs. Wands' by Madeline Cullen and 'NeoFlock' and 'Deadline' by Talon666. Alright, I hope you enjoy this chapter.
It was Saturday night and Iggy, Max, Elisabeth, Fang, and Angel were sitting cross legged in Elisabeth and Iggy's living room floor. Elisabeth, Fang, and Angel were sitting still with their eyes closed, almost as if they were meditating. However, Max and Iggy were fidgeting around.
Iggy didn't think he could stand it anymore. "Angel, are you sure this is going to work?"
"Iggy, shut up." Angel muttered darkly.
Iggy crossed his arms. He didn't think he should be told, by a girl eight years younger than him, to shut up in his own house. Angel had been searching deep into Elisabeth and Fang's minds for some kind of something for over two hours.
"But don't you think you would've found something by now?" he asked, shifting a little.
Angel sighed, but kept her eyes closed. "I can definitely feel something there Iggy. Some kind of connection. Maybe if you be quiet I can figure out just what it is. Now please, shush." she told him, angrily.
Iggy had been bugging Angel for the past two hours. Angel figured he was the reason it was taking so long. She couldn't concentrate properly due to his constant interruptions.
"Iggy, just be quiet." Max ordered him.
"You can't tell me what to do anymore Max." Iggy told her. "I'm a grown man and I can take care of myself just fine."
"Iggy, shut up!" the twins shouted at once. The lights flickered for a minute and then stopped.
"Interesting." Angel murmured to herself.
"Freaky is more like it." Max stated.
"Oh, so you can talk and I can't?" Iggy asked. "That's real fair Max. This is my house. My rules. I can talk if I want."
"Iggy, shut up!" the twins yelled again. The lights flickered some more.
"Very interesting." Angel murmured again. She opened her eyes and said, "Elisabeth, I need you to think as hard as you can about something."
"About what?" Elisabeth asked curiously. She knew she was finally going to find out if there was a reason for her and Fang being separated.
"Anything." Angel told her. "Just think about it as hard as you possibly can. It's very important."
Elisabeth nodded and began to think.
Iggy's house? Iggy's rules? Does he even realize I'm right here? If he doesn't stop being so whiny, I'm going to pop him right upside the head. I love him but sheesh.
"Angel said to think hard, not shout Elisabeth." Fang said. "And should you really be saying that stuff about Iggy in front of his face?"
"What stuff?" Iggy asked.
"Fang, Elisabeth didn't say anything." Max said, slowly. Needless to say, she was a little freaked out.
"Yes she did." Fang said assuredly. "I heard her. She was talking about Iggy being whiny."
"What?" Iggy asked his wife incredulously.
Elisabeth tinged pink. "Fang, I was only thinking those things." she informed him. "How did you hear?"
"You two have a mind link of sorts." Angel told them. "That's what I've been feeling."
"So, they can read each other's minds?" Max asked curiously. That would be interesting.
Angel shook her head. "Only certain thoughts. They can project a thought to each other. I think it's part of their whole 'stealth' thing. They can convey messages to each other to make for more sneaky fighting and stuff of that nature."
"That makes sense." Elisabeth said. "Doesn't it Iggy?" She decided to include him in the conversation. She felt bad for what she thought.
Iggy, however, said absolutely nothing at all. He pretended like he hadn't heard Elisabeth at all.
"Iggy, I know you're probably upset over what I thought, but that's no reason to be rude." Elisabeth told her husband.
"I've been told not to speak." Iggy said simply.
Elisabeth rolled her eyes. "Fine, you may now speak. Are you happy?"
Iggy nodded smugly. "Very. And to answer your question, yes that does make a lot of sense."
"But what was up with the lights?" Max asked, uncrossing her legs.
Angel sighed heavily. "I have no idea. They might have a power, but it could be dangerous for them to try it out. For all we know it could blow up the whole world."
They all looked around at each other (well, except for Iggy). What Angel said was true. There was obviously a reason behind Fang and Elisabeth's separation; they knew that now. If it was as powerful as the whitecoats feared… well, then it would be very terrible if they tried to unleash whatever it was.
"So you all agree with me then?" Angel asked the older Flock members. "They'll never test their power?"
They all nodded and Elisabeth said, "If it seems to be that powerful, then I think this is the best thing we can do. I mean, this could be life or death."
"Still," Fang began. "I would love to know what it is. Is there anyway you could find that out without us using the power Angel?"
She shook her head. "I tried. All I can tell is that it's very, very powerful."
They all sat in silence for a moment before Max abruptly turned the topic of conversation to something else.
"I wonder what Melody's doing right now." she said, staring out into space.
"Probably sleeping since it's ten o'clock." Fang said, checking his watch. "Well, unless she's like Max and is on first watch."
"Have you been checking on her Angel?" Iggy asked hopefully.
Angel nodded. "Her dreams seem normal. No more cliffs and no more thinking about dying."
"Could you tell us her latest one?" Elisabeth asked curiously.
"It was a very peaceful dream." Angel began. "There was some kind of meadow or something. In the middle of the meadow there was a blanket set out with a picnic basket in the middle. She was sitting with a boy that had white blonde hair and blue eyes. He was laughing with her. They looked happy. Then a girl with short red hair and emerald green eyes come out from behind a tree and she began laughing with them as she sat down. Iggy, you and Elisabeth showed up to. You were both smiling and it seemed like you were talking to her and the boy. I think the boy was Skye and the girl was Jewel."
Angel purposely left out that there was a clap of thunder and a flash of lightning and then Iggy and Elisabeth were lying on the ground. A boy with spiky copper hair came out of nowhere and he was laughing insanely. There was another flash of lightning and then Mel was all alone, screaming.
"She must really miss us." Elisabeth said wistfully. "I wonder where she is right now."
"There's no way to know that." Max told her. "However, it doesn't hurt to think about it and hope that she's okay."
Iggy sighed. "Well, I hope that wherever she is, she's safe and sound. That's all we can ask for."
Fang and Angel nodded in agreement. "I'm sure she's perfectly safe." Fang said confidently.
So, did you guys like that chapter? I really hope so. It might not have been the absolute best, but it was still pretty good. The next chapter will go back to Melody, Skye, and Jewel. They are all in for one major surprise. I won't say anymore about that. You'll just have to wait until next week. So I'll see you guys then.
