Boys Will Be Boys

"Fang, we all missed you so much! How've you been? Where's your gang? So much stuff's happened to us, especially in the past week! Has anything exciting happened to you all?" She asks as the rest of us come closer.

"Umm, yea good" Fang said smiling at her "but before we can all catch up, could the flock help me bring everyone up?"

"Yea ok" I say "come on guys." We all fly down- except for Star and Gazzy- and find the rest of Fang's gang waiting. Fang took Ratchet, Dylan took Holden, and I took Kate. Nudge and Iggy took their two bags, and Maya just flew up alone with another bag.

Maya looked different from last time. She had dyed her hair- this time a dark red color. It actually looked pretty and you could instantly tell us apart now, not have to look for that pink stripe in her hair.

Holden was a little bigger than before- had more muscle on him and grew a few inches. But he was still quiet and just stood by Fang while he talked to us about something that I tuned out of. I think he was answering Nudges questions about his day or something.

I'm going to take a guess here and say that Ratchet and Kate and together now. I say that because as soon as we put everyone down, Ratchet headed to where Kate was and they looked at each other in such a way that was cute, yet made me want to hurl.

Kate and Ratchet then went over to talk to Star. As Star told them something, they all looked back at me, which kind of angered me. It was enough that Star had been giving me weird looks, but if every one of Fangs people were going to do it… I was about to go over there and ask what their problem was once and for all; but just as I took a step, Nudge got in front of me "Fang want to show all of us some stuff they found in some lab" she says excitedly as everyone followed Fang to the middle of the cave where all the suitcases and everything else was.

I decided to just let the Star thing go and see what Fang brought.

He showed us a bunch of things like night-vision glasses, some light-weight body molding stuff that was supposed to be bullet-proof, Star's energy pills (which he then threw at her and she caught skillfully), and some other things he said we could all share.

"Ok so the reason that we're here Max-" he finally said, now actually speaking directly to me "-is that we need the flock's help. We think that if we just join forces with each other, just for a little while, that both groups would benefit and get through our missions quicker."

"Um…" I said as I looked around at my flock. They all looked a little surprised since I'd forgotten to tell them why Fang had come. "I think it'd be fine for a little while. Is it ok with you guys?" I ask them.

They all nod cautiously but surely. "I think it would be awesome!" Nudge screams.

"As long as they don't get in the way, it's fine with me" adds Iggy.

Gazzy nods and Dylan stands there awkwardly and says "yea, ok, sure."

"Well I guess it's a yes" I say to Fang.

I looked out the cave seeing it was getting dark, and then felt my pocket- It was empty. I looked around the floor and walked around to the grocery bags. I opened them all and looked in but with no luck. I found nothing. I straighten back up, "damn" I say under my breath.

Dylan comes up beside me and asks "what's wrong Max?"

"I think I dropped my phone, but I don't know where" I tell him while I feel my back pocket, in case I put it there.

"Did you have it before you went to the store?" He asks, looking around too.

"Yea, I'm sure I had it before I left. Maybe I dropped it outside." I walk out to the cave entrance to look down. Nudge had joined us now. It was useless though, it was almost pitch black out and the fire light made it even harder to see out. And plus I knew I wouldn't be able to see a tiny cell phone from this far away. "This is useless, I guess I just need to get a new cell phone…" I look back at where Fang was "hey could we use those night-vision-"

"Found it!" Dylan informs us pointing down. He swoops down and I go over to the edge to watch. He lands a few moments later and bends down to pick something up. Then he jumps up and comes back to us.

When he lands he makes some of the sand on the floor disperse. He pulls his wings in and walks to me holding my phone out. "Thanks Dylan!" I say smiling and grabbing it.

"No problem" he says smiling.

Nudge looks surprised and looks back out, then at Dylan "how- wha- huh?" she asks dumbfounded.

"He has better night-vision than us, like Iggy did" I say as I try to turn my phone on, to see if it survived the impact.

"I think that's actually coming back too!" Iggy said happily.

"Cool!" I say excitedly, smiling up at him.

"Iggy's sight is back?" Fang asks confused.

"Yea- well kind of" Iggy says, "I mean I can tell what color and shape things are, and their outline. But I can't see too much detail."

"But it's getting better!" Nudge adds happily.

"So is your phone alive?" Gazzy asks enthusiastically.

"I actually think it broke from the fall" I say sadly.

"Yes!" he exclaims happily.

"Why are you so happy about my phone's death?" I ask suspiciously putting one hand on my waist while the other holds my phone.

"Oh well I'm sorry that you don't have a phone anymore, but I can use the parts that didn't get destroyed!" he says smiling up at me holding his hands out.

I sigh, "fine, here" I say putting my cracked phone in his waiting hands.

He cheers and goes off to where his bag was, grabbing Iggy's sleeve on the way there.

"What time is it" I asked, remembering why I'd wanted to get my phone in the first place.

Fang takes his phone out along with Dylan and they both say "twelve thirty" at the same time, then give each other dirty looks.

"Ok, thanks guys…" I say walking over to our bags. "Come on Nudge I think we should all turn in now." She followed me quickly and grabbed her bag as I say "we can use the bags as pillows" she nodded and went to the back left corner or the cave. I walk over to Gazzy and Iggy who were taking my phone apart. "You all too, go to bed, you can work on that some other time."

"Ok Max" Gazzy says surprising me. I would usually have to drag him to bed against his will. "Come on Iggy" he says yawning.

He gets up, grabs his bag, and walks over to where Nudge was. Iggy followed behind after grabbing his own bag. However, he hadn't seen that the ceiling was slightly lower there. "Iggy-" I say trying to stop him but he just looked over at me without stopping and hit his head "ough" he grumbles clutching his head quickly.

"Iggy are you ok?" I ask walking over to him.

"Yea I'm fine" he saying rubbing his head. "My hand's red…" he informs me "is it bleeding?" he asks as he puts his hand down to look at it.

"Kneel down for me Igg, you're too tall" I say as I try to look at his head. He does and I move his hair out of the way as I examine his scalp. "Oh yea, it's bleeding. Kinda bad too" I add as I look up at the pointy rocks above our heads. "Hey does anyone have some cloth or something?" I ask as I grab Iggy's arm and take him with me to the middle of the cave, where all the grocery bags were.

"You can use one of my socks!" Nudge calls loudly from the corner.

"Eww" Iggy says, holding his head.

"Thanks Nudge" I say as she hands me a pair of sock and then sits by us to see if she could do anything.

I grab a bottle of water from one of the bags and put some on a sock "turn around" I tell Iggy. He was sitting cross-legged on the floor and I was on my knees as I dabbed his head. But the blood just kept coming.

"Head wounds bleed a lot" he informs me.

"Great" I say "hey Dylan could you try your spit thing on Iggy's head?" I ask.

"Eww!" Iggy says, louder this time.

"Sure?" Dylan says a little unsure "but I told you already Max, it only works on me" he says as he sits by Iggy and takes the other- non-bloody- sock.

"But it worked on me at the hospital, maybe it'll work on Iggy."

"What? When did you go to the hospital? What happened?" Fang asks worriedly as he comes over to us with Holden.

"She went to the hospital when she got shot three times. One in her wing, one in her leg, and one in her stomach. Ohemgee! We were all so scared and sad when we found out she was pregnant and lost the bab-!" Nudge says quickly as I stare and then clasp my hand on her mouth.

"You were what!" Fang asks shocked and a little angered.

Dylan chuckles to himself as he takes him thumb off of Iggy's head, which was still bleeding, and frowns looking at his cut.

I don't know if it was just me but just then I could have sworn I saw some fog or smoke on the ground. It was very faint though so I wasn't sure.

"When did you- how did- who- You!" Fang says giving Dylan a look that made the whole cave got colder.

Dylan gets up and wipes his thumb on his jeans "yea it was mine" he says smiling.

Oh shit… I think as I grab the sock that was least bloody and tell Iggy to hold it there for a while.

Fang shoves Dylan back some as he says "how could you do that dude! You know how I feel about her!"

"Whatever, you had your chance! And what'd you do? You left her! Twice!" he yells as he shoves Fang back.

Fang's people had come over now and were just looking on, not knowing what to do. Gazzy had sat up and looked scared. Iggy was holding his head and stood up, walking back over to where Gazzy was. Nudge had gotten up with me and was standing behind me, she too looking scared.

"You just left her like she's nothing! Do you even care how sad she was, and is; because of you! We've already gone through this; I'm way better for her than you!" He says walking towards Fang slowly which was taking them both closer to the edge of the cliff. Fang stepped back a little, not noticing how close he was to the edge, and lost his footing a little; which sent some loose rocks tumbling down.

"I had my reasons for doing that and you know it! I didn't mean to hurt her. I felt horrible being away from her too but it was the only way" he says looking down at the floor, but then up again. He started to walk forward towards Dylan and tried to look taller. "But it doesn't mean I don't care about her! In fact I love her!" that made my breath catch in my throat and I gulped. "I would do anything for her and it killed me to have to leave. It killed me to have to leave her and my family with you! But I had to do it, for her. And plus she doesn't love you; even if she almost had your kid! She was probably forced to do that! She'll never love you!"

Third person point of view

This really angered Dylan; his cheeks flushed with anger and his eyes filled with rage. He charged forward and rammed Fang off the edge of the cliff. Dylan took his wings out, diving down after him.

Everyone else gasped and moved closer to the edge. They saw Fang coming back up, his black wings would be almost invisible if it weren't for the moon and stars shining above.

Dylan shot to him, hitting his shoulder against Fang's. This made Fang spin to the side, and fall a few feet. This, though quite painful, didn't cause much damage to Fang and only managed to piss him off. Fang hadn't wanted to fight, but now it was on!

Fang now completed the turn he was rammed into, and charged to Dylan. He took his fist out in front of him and aimed it right for Dylan's face.

It was too late for Dylan to dodge it now. But he managed to move his face up so it wouldn't hit him in the eye.

Fang's punch hit Dylan's jaw so hard that the others heard a loud 'pop', as Dylan's jaw came out of socket.

Dylan's face showed some pain but he didn't care about his jaw right now; he grabbed Fangs arm and twisted it behind his head.

The others heard another nasty, but slightly less audible, 'pop' as Fangs shoulder came out of socket.

Fang's face contorted with pain for a second and then he kicked himself powerfully away from Dylan.

They looked at each other furiously for a while and then charged again.

This time however, Max screamed "STOP!" and used her super speed to get between them right as they were about to slam into each other.

Max held her arms out to stop them, knowing all too well it was a useless gesture and that she was surely going to get her arms broken. But she had to do something! She closed her eyes and waited for the pain…

Dylan

'No Max!' I thought as I shot to Fang. His eyes were the widest I'd ever seen them, like he was about to get a leg cut off or something, as he saw Max.

We all knew it was too late to stop or to change directions. But I had to try something. I put my arms out as fast as I could and managed to grab Fangs shoulders. I noticed that Fang had put his legs out too. My elbows bent some from the impact and we crushed Max slightly but she'd live. Thank God.

Fang

'Shit!' I think as I extend my legs and separate them so they'd go around Max and hit Dylan's knees, and lessen the blow.

Hitting him gave me a jolt but at least we didn't crush Max too bad. He had put his arms out, his hands on my shoulders, to try to save Max like me and now we both noticed we had smashed Max's wings.

Her arms were bent a little at the elbow, her left hand on my chest, and I guess her right on Dylan's. Her head was down and it looked like she might be crying. Some of her feathers had fallen and her wings were squished between my right leg and Dylan's left arm "please, stop" she whispered.

Dylan backed up slowly and I grabbed Max around the waist with one arm as she fell a little. Her wings moved uselessly which only made her tense up in pain. Her hair was in her eyes and Dylan said "give her to me." I knew I couldn't carry her with one arm so I quickly gave her over, forgetting that we had just been fighting a few seconds ago.

He sped over to the bright cave that blinded me when I saw it. I hadn't realized we had been fighting in nearly pitch black. And I raced a few meters behind Dylan.

I saw that everyone was watching quietly. Star didn't look as surprised as the others. Ratchet was wide eyed and holding Kate's shoulders, who had her hands covering her mouth in horror and was wide eyed also. Holden stood close to the edge and looked surprised. Maya looked like she couldn't believe what had happened but then ran over to Iggy screaming something at him. Iggy looked confused and scrambled around, throwing his bloody sock on the ground. Nudge was crying violently. And Gazzy looked terrified but was quickly telling Iggy what had happened.

When Dylan landed he put Max down but helped her stay sitting up so her wings didn't get hurt again.

I kneeled on her other side mentally kicking myself in the ass for this.

Everyone gathered around as Iggy finally started screaming orders for things.

A.N: Ok Idk what happened to my beta but I think I might need a new one, so sorry for any mistakes. Please review for a fast update like this one!
