Sorry it took me so long to update!!! Please forgive me!

Mallory sat at the bar, ignoring the loud music playing behind her. She had been sitting there for almost three hours, and was about to kill something. She had been drinking since she saw Nosedive. Why was she afraid to see them? Or for them to see her? 'Because your ashamed of yourself' , her mind replied. She sighed and took another gulp of her drink. Why was she the way she was? Was this the path that she really wanted to take?

"To many questions for one glass of beer", she mumbled to herself. She turned to look around. Mallory didn't see any of the ducks. 'Well.....maybe they left' , she thought. Then Canard sat three stools down from her. 'Damn it!' , her mind screamed. Canard ordered a few drinks then cast his eyes to the young human girl.

'Not bad for a human' , Canard thought to himself. This girl had shoulder length raven black hair and she was well built. She seemed depressed, never letting her eyes drift from her drink. His drinks came and he walked away from the bar. He looked back one last time at the depressed beauty. He shrugged his shoulders and went to his table. Wing was sitting there acting just like the girl on the bar, depressed.

"Wing man cheer up! There is nothing you can do to make her come back!", Canard said in his slightly drunk state. Wing gave him a death glare and sighed.

"What makes you think that?", Wing asked sadly.

"Well she is a hybrid...maybe she doesn't want to be apart of the team anymore. Maybe she wants to be with her own kind.", Canard shrugged, drinking his beer. Wing growled under his breath and walked away. Canard watched his friend go and yelled," Was it something I said!".

Wing made his to the bar and spotted the same girl that Canard had. He walked up beside her.

"Is this seat taken?", he asked softly.

"No, help yourself", she replied just as soft.

Mallory knew that Wildwing had just sat down next to her, but what could she do? She couldn't convince him that it was her, so what was the point. She remembered when she saw him back at the Pond. The look in his eyes made her want to hold him. But she couldn't. 'Oh yes! Hey Wing I'm being trained to become a hybrid warrior! I even have powers! Ha! yeah right! He'll really go for that!' her mind said. He would never except her now. She was the one thing that he hated. How could he love her?

Wildwing looked over at the girl next to him. Oddly enough, she reminded him of Mallory. He missed her so much. He wanted to understand her better. He didn't care what she was. He noticed a ring on the girls right hand. A silver band with an odd writing inscripted on it. 'Hey Mallory had a ring just like that!' he thought. Then it hit him! He turned his head sharply. The girl did somewhat look like Mallory. 'Damn! The one night that I don't have my mask!' his mind screamed. He sighed. How could he talk to her? Will she talk back to him as Mallory? He had to try.

"So did Chameleon bring you here or did you come alone Mallory?" Wing said turning his head slightly to look at her.

Mallory looked up sharply. She then sighed. "Is this costume too simple for you Wildwing?" She asked, laughing lightly to herself.

"Your ring Mal. You've never taken it off......Mal?", he asked.

"Yes Wing?"

"Why don't you come home?", he asked, almost a whisper.

"Its complicated I'm afraid, but to tell you the truth, I want to know more about me. Wing, I've never known who I really was or what my purpose was. I think that they can help me. I need to learn to control my powers. That is the hardest part of my training.", Mallory explained.

"Will you ever come back home?", Wing asked moving over closer to her.

"Wing I would never hurt you or the others...its just....I don't think that they would want me around because I am....", she studdered slightly.

"Hybrid", Wing finished for her. She nodded. "I don't care Mallory. I've never loved anybody like I've love you. Why can't you just come home!", Wing whispered harshly.

"You don't understand. Wing, I've never had a real family. I raised myself. I've done things that I can't explain.Things to do with my power. Now I have the chance to find the answers. Wing try and understand that I love you and I will be back as soon as I can gain control." she sighed. Wing shook his head sadly and wraped an arm around her shoulders. Mallory laid her head on his shoulder.

"Do you really think that the saurians will let you go", Wing said.

"They can't stop me", Mal replied.

"But what if they can", Wing said looking at her.

"Then I will die trying", she said, shrugging off his worry.

"I love you", whispered Wing.

"Lets go outside so I can change to my true form", she smiled slightly, getting up from her stool. Wing followed her out of the club and they both sat down on the curb. Mallory formed a orb in her hand. She lifted it closer to her face to study it more.

"To think such a small thing can hold so much power", she said, almost proudly. The orb faded out and Mallory was herself again. Wing smiled and kissed her. She smiled for once and leaned against him. They would have stayed there all night but fate didn't like that idea. Nosedive came out and found the couple.

"Hey Mallory!!! Your ok!!" he smiled, as he sat down on the other side of Mallory.

"I miss you too Dive!", Mallory said sarcasticly.

"Dive can't you be somewhere else...like getting Canard out of the club and taking him home", Wing suggested. Dive was about to get up but a tall young man aproached them.

"Ummmm...... we have to go", Chameleon said,slowly.

Mallory nodded and stood up. She nelt down and kissed Wildwing.

"I love you. You'll see me in your dreams. I can be with you.", Mallory smiled. She kissed him one last time, then stood back. She became transparent, then was completly gone.
