Chapter Two:

The first thing Nosedive was aware of was the sound of a woman's voice. Whoever it was she was singing and reminded him of his mother, although it was a little higher pitched. He opened his eyes and squinted at the artificial light. For a moment he thought he was dead but then he felt the stinging of his lash wounds and guessed otherwise. Pushing himself up onto his elbows he looked around the room he found himself in. The bed was comfortable and the room was relatively well furnished so he definitely wasn't in the camp any more. Nosedive swung his legs over the side of the bed and stood up unsteadily and after a few moments of the room spinning he began to follow the voice. He went out of the room, turned left and two doors down he found the voice. A girl about his age was sitting with her back to her door, which was ajar. She wasn't all that big but she wasn't a stick insect like the girls he'd remembered from school. Her feathers were a dark brown along with her hair but the ends were black and she had tiny streaks of various colors running through it. He pushed the door open a bit more and watched her as she sang whilst doing something on her lap, as he neared he realized she was drawing. And that was when he felt dizzy and fell heavily to his knees, she yelped in shock and turned around to see who it was.

"Aren't you Silver's son?" She asked making Nosedive stare at her in disbelief, "Cause you know she'll kill me if she finds out you're out of bed."

"My mom's here?" he asked all the while thinking he must be having a dream.

"Sure she's been looking for you and your brother since all this started and she found you three days ago," the girl said still sitting on her bed watching him as he carefully stood up so as not to make himself dizzy again, "your wounds got infected so you were out for a while." She paused and looked him over, "you know somehow I pictured her kids to be bigger."

"That would be my brother." Nosedive said looking around her room at all the sketches of people, animals and places. A few were of other things that he assumed she'd made up, "Can I see my mom?"

"Sure so long as you go back to bed I'll go get her for you." She stood up and grabbed his wrist then put his arm around her shoulders, "Let's get one thing straight I am only helping you because you're cute not because you a helpless blond in distress. Got it."

"Thanks, I think." He replied sarcastically looking at her out of the corner of his eye as she helped him back to his room. She settled him into bed then went off to find Silver for him and found himself drifting off to sleep again.

"Morning sunshine." Silver said gently as he opened his eyes, "Sorry I wasn't here the first time, I was a little busy dealing with . . . well anyway it doesn't matter now. How are you feeling?" Silver had her famous worry line on her forehead and placed a hand on his, "your fever certainly went down quickly."

"I missed you mom." Nosedive said as he tried to hold back his tears, he was a big boy now and they didn't cry no matter how bad it got.

"Oh honey," She wrapped her arms around him and gave him a reassuring squeeze, "You're safe now and if those saurians want you back then I'll have something to say about it." She pulled away and cupped his face with her left hand, "Remember what I told you?"

"We're family and we'll always find a way to each other." Nosedive recited and smiled at the old saying then frowned, "Wildwing, I think he's . . ."

"Dead?" Silver said with a slight quiver in her voice, "So far I haven't heard anything to say he is or isn't, but we'll keep searching. Someone will be able to tell us, eventually. But in the mean time we keep a positive outlook and keep searching." Silver smiled and brushed a tangled strand of hair out of his face. "So I hear you've met Rebecca?"

"The girl with brown hair?" Silver nodded at him, "Is she always weird or what?"

"A majority of the time," Silver chuckled, "according to another girl here, Sapphira or Blue as we call her, she's been like that all her life. Blue thinks it's because she's nervous and over compensates or something. But she's a sweet girl, dangerous though."

"Her? Dangerous?" Nosedive scoffed.

"She has a thing for blowing things up, I don't think she does it on purpose but whenever I send her and blue out on a mission something gets blown to hell." Silver shrugged, "They haven't injured any of the good buys yet and it seems to work so I let them get on with it. That and it's a blast seeing the saurians afraid of two little girls."

"So this blue can fight too?"

"That's right," she adjusted how she was sitting to get more comfortable then carried on, "Blue's the smart one of the pair though. She can fix just about anything and understands all the science stuff which, to be honest is way beyond my understanding. But the girl can fight when forced to and she's a crack shot."

"Wait a minute, did you say earlier that you send them on missions?"

"Yes, why didn't think you're old rock star mother could handle leading a rebellion?" Silver raised an eye brow and nearly burst out laughing at her son's look.

"You're the leader of the resistance?" He yelled then grabbed his head and decided on no yelling for a while.

"Oh good god no! The resistance is army and special forces. Those guys are great if you want to be solely focused on wasting every saurian on the planet. No we are the rebels, we are the ones who raid camps and try to free as many of our people as we can. Whilst kicking some saurian tail in the mean while of course but trust me we are not army and most of us wouldn't even be considered eligible to fight with those cake eaters!"

"They didn't want you huh?" Nosedive said.

"No, those creeps told me an ex-rock star wouldn't be able to cope with what they had to do, I mean honestly! I can fight just as well as the rest of them. So after I got turned down and decked some general I went off on my own and came across people like me who'd basically been rejected by the army. I mean they don't even give these people a place to stay unless you're usefully. I found a guy named Carlos, then there was Jack and his little boy Joey. And then I found Rebecca and Blue. Blue's father had been the CEO of Firestorm industries and she knew of an underground testing facility that was the size of a small city." Silver grinned, "that's where we are now, although I've gathered a few more fighters since then and we've been a right royal pain in those scale heads' asses ever since."

"Cool, so how do I join up?" Nosedive said eagerly.

"First you get fit and healthy young man," she said sternly, "then we'll see about what you can do to help. There's always something for everyone to do!"
