Chapter 8
Fang POV
Hey people! It's me again, bringing you the latest edition of A Fudge Story. A lot of you wanted me to continue the story. I knew I couldn't stop until they had a date, so I will continue this story through this chapter.
As to what I mean by "being back in school", When I began writing this story, I was on Thanksgiving Break. Now, break has ended and I have about 2 weeks before the semester ends and Christmas break comes. That also means I have finals. I have to study, and I have lots of homework, so I won't be able to type all day and post as often.
Thank you, once again, for your support and reviews! .....Skipp20 says hi! ....so does wolf boy.
ENJOY!

(Fangs Blog)- O.K. First of all, I guess I should catch you guys up on events. Last night, I left you hanging, saying we were going shopping. (Sarcastic Woo). Long story short. I bought stuff. Max and I fought. And yelled. She confessed her undying love for me. We are going out. AND we have a date set up for this after noon. OH....MY.....GOD. Help me. I can kick about 100 Eraser butts, and not get tired. But I think my brain might explode, if I try and think of what to do on this date tonight anymore.....help me.
Also, we are leaving New York. We're heading for Colorado to shred a mountain. Gazzy got this big idea in his head of us skiing and snow boarding down the slopes of Colorado. And to make sure the guys had an equal say in what and where we go, Max, unfortunately, said yes. So now, we were heading towards Winter Park, Colorado. At least, that's what Gazzy found using my laptop.
Any suggestions for my date would be appreciated. Any hot spots in Winter Park would also be welcome. Thanks for all the help! -Fang
I guess that would have to do. Max was out buying plane tickets, so we could ship our suit cases up to Colorado. I was in charge while she was gone, and that meant keeping Gasman and Iggy from blowing up the hotel, and making sure the girls didn't bug the guys. What a job.
Nudge was trying to fit all her clothes into the two suit cases she had. She looked like she was having trouble, so I went over to help her.
"Gazzy, I told you....Oh, it's you," she snapped, pushing the top of the suit case down on top of her numerous clothes.
"Need a little help?" I offered. She stepped aside and the top sprang back on to the bed. I grabbed the top, shoved it down on the clothes and reached for the zipper. It leapt from my hand and flopped back on the bed. I scowled down at it and snatched the top back again. I jumped on top of it and motioned for Nudge to zip it. She maneuvered around my legs and once it was shut totally, I jumped off.
"Thanks!" she said. I nodded, and turned to leave. Just then, Max burst through the door.
"Grab your stuff and lets go! We have about 15 minutes to get to that airport and load our stuff on it! Hurry up!" she yelled at us. I ran to our room and seized the two suitcases. Nudge, Angel, and Iggy were waiting outside in the hallway. I looked for Max and Gazzy.
"Where are they?" I quickly asked them. They all pointed simultaneously at Gazzy room. I ran in and saw Max sprinting around the room. Gazzy sat on the bed and stared strangely at her.
"What's up?" I asked as Max came to a halt in front of me.
She looked at me, panic on her face. "We can't find Gazzy's coat! If we're going to Colorado, he needs that!" She continued her frantic searching.
My eyes roamed the room. The closet, bed, bathroom, and kitchen had already been torn apart by Max. She was looking under the bed now. I noticed that the safe was sticking out from under the table. It shouldn't be that way. I crossed the room and turned the combination. It swung open, revealing one squashed looking coat. I pulled it out and shook it out. Max raised up, looked at the coat and panic turned to amazement before my eyes. She looked at me, then at Gazzy, then back at me. I walked over to Gazzy's suitcase and folded the coat into it.
"Uh, we have about 12 minutes now..." I said. Max seemed to wake up then, and she ushered Gazzy out of the room. I followed her with the bag.
We got to the airport with 10 minutes to spare. The flight had a delay, so we had more time than we thought. Good thing, too, or we would have been flying a bit more than we thought.
Once our luggage had been loaded onto the plane, and Nudge had gotten nacho's from one of the food courts in the airport, we launched ourselves high into the sky. Max and I flew as close together a possible, without getting our wings entangled.
It was about mid-afternoon when we started flying over Colorado. The cold wind hit us like a brick wall. We tried to fly low, to avoid the dark gray clouds that now loomed above. Cause, trust me, clouds aren't the fluffy little beds you think they are. There cold. And wet. And most importantly....EVIL!!!!
I looked around at the flock. Angel and Nudge were shivering, Gazzy was trying not to, Iggy was being Iggy, and Max.....she was staring at me. Her limbs occasionally twitched with suppressed shivers.
"I should have kept the winter coats!" Max shouted over the wind.
"Next time, we will remember that!" I shouted back. Max turned her head away from me and I saw her mouth drop open. Angel suddenly swooped down beside me. She tugged at my sleeve frantically and pointed at the horizon. I looked.
A massive gray wall was coming towards us. It stretched across the land, so there was no way to avoid it. It looked as though we were about to get wet.
"Fang!" Max cried. "Should we land?"
I looked at the ground far below us. Then I looked at the on coming storm. We were to far up to land fast enough.
"...Fang..." "Angel whimpered. Ever since we had flown through the hurricane, she had been terrified of flying through any sort of precipitation.
"I think we should prepare to get wet!" I yelled at Max, who was on the border of panic. She nodded and started yelling at the flock to grab her hands. I flew over to her and slightly in front of her to avoid her wings, then grabbed her outstretched hand. Angel grabbed her other hand. Nudge took my hand, and Iggy took Angel's, then Gazzy completed the little oblong circle we had formed.
We hit the rain in a matter of seconds, and then, oh, about 2 seconds later, was soaked through.
"Oh, this is SO much fun, Gazzy, SO much fun!" I yelled at him. I heard his laugh even over the wind.
We flew for about 10 more minutes, before the storm turned into a blizzard. Max was shaking so hard, I could hardly keep hold of her, and I couldn't feel my hands. Or face. Or any other part of my body, for that matter. The wind whipped across our bodies, forcing higher and higher.
I felt Max's grip on my hand loosen. I looked back. She was shaking her head and struggling to keep hold of me. Nudge only had a hold of my fingers. I could see that the rest of the flock was about to give in too. Oh....crap.... This was bad.
"Hang on guys!" I yelled, only to have the words flung into the wind, and they went unheard. A abrupt blast of wind forced me higher than the rest of the circle. My hand was ripped from Nudge's and Max's and I was flung helplessly into the wind. I heard Max scream my name, then saw her body give out and her figure fall from the sky. Angel fell with her. The last thing I could see before the ever falling snow enclosed me was Nudge, Iggy, and Gazzy falling last.
I struggled to fly, but the wind was too powerful, when it was doubled by the snow and sleet. My wings seemed to stop moving, and I dropped like a stone. My last thought was, "Oh man, this is it. Goodbye Max!", before I passed out.
