Chapter 9
A/N: Everyone, thank you so much for reviewing! Well, I have nothing else to say, so, here's chapter 9!
We had been flying for about an hour now. Thankfully, Iggy had been able to fly. If he hadn't been able to fly, we would have had to fly and carry a six foot mutant all the way to Ella's house, which probably would have been really hard.
Well, we got to Ella's house around three. The flock hid behind some bushes while I walked up to the door. I rang the doorbell and Dr. Martinez answered.
"Oh my goodness, Max!" She hugged me. "How have you been, sweetie?"
"Ok, I guess." Then I remembered Iggy. "Oh, hey. One of my fl- friends is hurt. Do you think you can help him?"
"I'll see what I can do." Dr. Martinez smiled at me. I motioned for the others to come. Angel ran up to me and hugged me tightly. Nudge and the Gasman timidly walked up to the door. I waited for Fang and Iggy, who were slowly making their way towards the door. Iggy was leaning on Fang for support. When they finally got to the door, we all went inside.
It looked the same as last time. Cute, cozy, just how a home should look.
"Max, would you like to introduce me to your friends?" Dr. Martinez asked me.
"Oh. Yeah." I pointed to Fang. "This is Ni-...Fang."I couldn't get myself to lie to her, so I just used their real names. Fang glanced at Dr. Martinez warily. "Iggy," I said, putting my arm on his shoulder. He extended his hand and Dr. Martinez shook it.
"I'm Nudge!" Nudge said, knowing that she was next.
"Hello, Nudge." Dr. Martinez said happily.
"The Gasman," I said, pointing to him.
"Gasman?"
"You don't want to know."
"Ok," Dr. Martinez laughed.
"And this is Angel." I said.
"Don't forget Total!" Angel said happily. Total popped his head out of Angel's jacket.
"Woof," He said, chuckling.
"So, which one of your friends is hurt?" Dr. Martinez asked me. Back to business.
"Iggy," I said. She looked at everyone, trying to remember which one Iggy was.
"He's the blind one." Iggy said. Dr. Martinez turned to him.
"Oh..." She said, looking at his eyes. "Well, what seems to be the problem?"
"Uh, my leg." He said, sounding kind of nervous.
"Ok, so we'll need to get an x-ray, and see where that takes us." Dr. Martinez said. I squeezed Iggy's hand.
"You'll be fine." I whispered to him.
"X-ray?" He whispered back.
"No big deal."
"Hope so."
Iggy had gotten his little x-ray thing, and it turned out that his leg was broken. Or was it fractured? Something like that.
"Great," I muttered under my breath.
"He'll need a cast," Dr. Martinez stated. "For about 4 weeks." Fang looked at me with raised eyebrows. I looked at Iggy, who looked pretty ticked off.
"Ok..." I said uneasily.
We stayed with Dr. Martinez that night. Demon and all the younger kids fell asleep right away. Fang and I were wide awake, staring at Iggy's glow in the dark cast. I was really starting to creep me out.
"Will you quit it!" Iggy yelled at us, making me jump.
"Sorry," I muttered, looking away. Fang did the same.
"She said 4 weeks," Fang said. "So maybe 6 days?"
"Guess so," Iggy replied. "It's still a pretty long time."
"Yeah," Fang agreed. I suddenly thought of Ella, wondering where she was.
"What's up?" Fang asked me, noticing that I was thinking about something.
"A girl lives here, just wondering where she was."
"Oh," Fang said, uninterested.
"Night, guys." I said, lying down
"Night," Fang said
"G'night," Iggy mumbled.
A/N: Ok, so there's chapter 9! I won't take forever to update now, sorry about how long it took for chapter 7. Oh, hey. Why don't people write Fang Nudge fics? I mean, Fang's the same age as Iggy, pretty much. But they are really different, though, huh? Well, if people wrote those, it could be, like, Fudge. That would be funny. Well, please R&R. Thanx so much for all you people who reviewed! People are actually reading my story! Wow. Thanks again peoples!
