Hey. Just wanted to remind you that James Patterson is cool :)

Fang and I sat in front of the fire for a while. I put the Voice's little comment in the back of my mind. I didn't feel like getting all worked up right now. I just wanted to sit here forever.
"So do you want me to take first watch?" Fang asked me.
"No, I probably won't be able to sleep. You go."
"You sure you're okay?" He asked, looking slightly concerned.
"Yeah."
Fang then stood up and brushed himself off.
"And Fang?" I said, right before he was about to go lay down.
He looked at me and raised his eyebrows.
"Thanks." I smiled.
He flashed a quick smile back and patted my head. I watching him walk away and lie down next to Nudge and Gazzy. I couldn't help but smile. I was here with my flock, and nothing was better.
'Don't loose focus Max.'
'Why? What's there to focus on? They're all dead.'
'Are you dead?'
'No, but…they were…' My thoughts trailed off.
I wasn't dead. So was everyone else dead? I was getting really paranoid now. Who was alive? Jeb? Ari? Then it hit me.
'Cool new feature.'
I sat up and looked around quickly. Ari was indestructible, along with at least half of the other Erasers. I knew we needed to get away, now. I got up and quietly went over to where everyone was sleeping. I decided to wake Fang up first. I needed to talk to him before the others.
"Fang." I whispered quietly as I lightly shook his shoulder.
He slowly opened his eyes and sat up.
"Sorry."
"It's fine. I can't sleep anyways."
"Fang," I sat down next to him. "We need to leave. They're not dead."
"What?" He looked at me confused.
"No one could've have died in that explosion. Ari is indestructible, and I think a lot of the other Erasers are too."
"How do you know?"
"The Voice gave me a little hint."
Fang nodded and looked around.
"What?" I asked.
"Nothing, I just thought I heard something."
Iggy suddenly sat up.
"Iggy?" I asked nervously.
"I hear someone coming."
"Okay, you two wake everyone up. I'll put the fire out. If you hear anything else, run."
They nodded. I walked over to the bucket of water and quickly poured it on what was left of the fire. I was shaking now, partly from fear, and partly because I was freezing.
"Max!" Iggy yelled.
I spun around, only to find myself starring into a pair of familiar black eyes.
