Chapter 34

Fang's POV

We finished breakfast and were on are way to see how Ashley's holding up. We pulled into the hospital parking lot. Angel, Gazzy and Nudge, literally shot out of the car and ran up to the front door. They all seem to like Ashley. She's bonded with each one of them. Angel and her bond over mind reading. They pull pranks on us saying what we thought. Gazzy and Ashley bond over explosions. I rember one time when we got home, they were cleaning up an explosion. She took the blame for the explosion. Even though we knew it was him. Nudge bonds over the fashion magazine's Ashley sneeks for her. They both read them, and Ashley helps Nudge, Modify her outfits. I got out of the car and went in to the hospital. I've learned to like Ashley, she's a good friend. Plus you know, she's Max's twin. The flock was waiting in the elevator for us. We stepped in a pushed the button. The door's opened on the 5th floor and we stepped out. Down the hall the third door on the left I said in my head. We got to the door and I opened it just enough to peak in the room. Iggy and Ashley were fast asleep. I opened the door and we all walked in. the two of them didn't even move.

"They Look so cute together" Nudge whispered to Angel. She smiled and nodded. Gazzy came and stood by me.

"Girls" I chuckled, cause I knew what he ment. The look of the two of them made me think of Max Her at the school, With Dylan. God I hate that guy. First he takes Max, Then he almost kills Ashley. Me and Iggy both have a bone to pick with him. I wonder what she's doing right now. She's probably off with Dylan. Having a wonderful time.

The thought of that caused me to brake the pencil I was holding.

It'll be OK Fang . Angel told me in my mind.

Yeah I know. But this is just a set back, that Dylan set up.

I know were behind Fang, but it's not like we could have left Ashley for dead.

I know Iggy wouldn't have left her.

Like I said, everything will be OK. The conversation ended when Ashley started to move. She opened her eyes and looked at us.

"Hey guys"

"Hey Ashley" Angel ran over and gave her a hug. " How you feeling?"

"A lot better, my head doeesn't hurt as much as it did yesturday"

"That's good" Dr. M said entering the room. I could see that Iggy was still asleep. He hadn't slept for day or two. He wouldn't leave Ashley's side. When the doctor said she was dead, Iggy punched a hole in the wall.

"Yeah" She looked at Dr.M " When are they letting me out of here, we still have to go get Max."

"They said when every your ready"

"Great" she nudged Iggy, and he opened his eyes.

"Huh?" He said yawning.

"Time to Wake up"

"No its not" He shut his eyes again. This time Ashley elbowed him.

"Up Now, we have places to go people to save" Iggy opened his eyes and sat up. Ashley slid off her bed and stood up. She wobbled a bit, but got her balance. She looks so much like Max, the only difference I've picked up on, is the red streaks in her hair. They even act the same. There Sarcastic tones, the faces they make, the way they act.

"Here Ashley we brought you some clothes" Nudge said handing her a bag. She smiled and took the bag into the bathroom. Iggy stood up and rubbed his eyes.

"Not very comfy are they Ig" I asked. He shook his head.

"No, No at all" Soon Ashley came back out in Skinney jeans and a t-shirt that said. 'Sarcasm its one of my many talents'

"Nudge you picked out something I would actual wear cool" She said Straightening out her shirt.

"Actually, Fang made us pick out that other than the skirt we had" Ashley glanced at me and smiled.

"Thanks Fang, without you I would be in a skirt"

"Yup" I said cassualy. She rolled her eyes and looked back at the flock.

"We ready?" We all stood up and went out the door. We took the elevatpr down to the first floor and went outside. We all piled in the van and headed home. On the ride home Iggy, Gazzy and Ashley got this stupid idea to start singing.

"99 bottle's of beer on the wall 99 bottle's of beer take one down pass it around d-" they sang in perfect harmony.

"SHUT UP" I screamed at them, but when do they listen.

"98 bottle's of beer on the wall 98 bottle's beer take one down pass it around drinkitty drink til it runs out" they sang the whole ride home. When we pulled in the drive way they were at 91.

"91 bottles of beer on the wall, 91 bottle's of beer take one down pass it around drinkitty drink til it runs out" they sang as we went in the door.

"Enough with the dang song already" Nudge complained, of course they just laughed and continued.

"90 bottle's of beer on the wall 90 bottle's of beer take one down pass it around drinkitty drink til it runs out"

"Save the singing for when we get Max back, you can annoy the crap out of her" they finally quit and went upstairs. I sat walked up stairs, peace and quiet. I went into mine and Ig's room and started packing a bag. Just some important stuff. Pocket knife and change of clothes. I went downstair,into the kitchen, and packed up some food. Soon everyone came downstairs, a bag in there hands.

"Let's roll" Gazzy said slinging his bag over his shoulder. We stood in the yard and opened our wings. There were no neibor's, so no one saw us.

"Good luck" said as we took off. We soared thousand's of feet in the air, til we could easily be mistaken for birds.

"Ah Fresh air" Ashley said dive bombing a few hundred feet then flying back up to us.

"Yeah, I love flying" Nudge said agreeably. I nodded. Yeah Fly is pretty cool, its better than driving. Up here there's no traffic lights, traffic, idiotic people driving other cars. There's really nothing up here, but us and a few birds.

- Skipping the long boring flight-

"Any idea where they took her?" I asked Ashley, about 15 hours later. Yeah we had been flying for a while. We had stopped once but it wasn't for very long. She pulled up on my left, are wings barely touching.

"Most likely the school, that's where Dylan lives" she replied.

"They took her back to the school" Angel said from right below me. I nodded.

"So we head there, get Max and kepp her out of contact from Dylan for 12 hours" I said.

"24 hours" Corrected Ashley of course. "Then she'll be the Max we all know and Love"

"Right" We were flying in a V formation, like geese do, I found it cool. Angel was in the front, Gazzy to her left. Nudge to her right. Me and Iggy at the ends, and Ashley flying in the middle of the V for some odd reason.

"Cause I wanna be in the middle" She said reading my thought's. Having two mind reader's can some time's be a pain. Angel and Ashley glared at me, and I admit it. I cracked s smile.

"Hey, I see the school" Gazzy called, grabbing our attention. We all looked, and about a mile away we could see a huge building. The same big building I had seen so many times.

"I saw we land and refuel then storm the place" I suggested. Everyone nodded and we landed in the woods. I slipped my bag off and started pulling out food, while Iggy was starting a fire. I sent Ashley, Gazzy and Angel to go get firewood.

"What can I do Fang?" Nudge asked.

"Clear that brush" I pointed to a huge pile of brush by where Iggy had a fire going. Soon the others came back with arm's load of fire wood. After eating some food, we all settled down for the night.
