--------------------Fang's POV:
"Shit" I muttered, trying to avoid Ange and Gaz hearing. Something was definitely up with Max. Guess I read between the lines of her leaping into the air without a word. Must be the bird DNA making me super smart right? I tried to roll Phoeno off of me as gently as possible, which resulted in me stumbling to me feet. Smooth. Shit where's my shirt?! Ugh. I'll never be able to find Max what with her supersonic powers. Crap. I found Total lying on it. Great smells of dog. What better?
"What's up babe?" I heard Phoeno ask Angel, no doubt Angel had been mind reading again, a skill Phoeno had yet to find out about. I'd ask about it later. Right now: Max. I jumped off the ledge manoeuvring my wings to try and find an air current. What the hell was with Max? Phoeno had been settling in fine. No prob. I racked my brains…Oh. Guess that's why. Phoeno's P.O.V"Shit" Fang muttered stumbling up, rolling me off in the process. I blinked, curious. That Max girl was so weird. She clearly got a kick out of bossing people around and being the leader. Frankly, I was glad she was gone; she seemed like a right bitch. Fang was putting his shirt back on. There was no need. I was definitely enjoying the view.
I stood up to find Angel frowning at me "What's up babe?" I asked casually. She shrugged and walked away from me, she was so cute. I turned around just in time to see Fang leap out of the cave. Why on Earth was he following her? That ruined my plans for the night. Hope he's back soon. I really like that guy.
I sighed, and saw the blind one…Ian, no, I struggled for his name…Iggy that's the one; turn his head eerily to look straight at me. I mean his seemed nice-ish, but he was a bit weird. Earlier, I'd seen him brushing his hands all over Max's stomach it looked kind of perverted. Yeah, he was weird; I stiffened feeling uncomfortable with his gaze on me, the freak. Angel's head snapped towards me, for a glimpse I saw a death stare coming from her, then in a second it was gone, she blinked and smiled up at me. I started to feel really claustrophobic and unprotected, yeah she was cute, but that stare was really frightening. She was murmuring quietly to the annoyingly chatty one, who's forehead furrowed. She looked back at me and then said something else to her; Nudge's eyes went wide, as did her mouth in shock. What had she said to her? Nudge stood up abruptly and went to sit close to the blind one, with her arms folded and her face looking sulky. Jeez, what was with these kids? I swear Fang was the only normal one out of the whole "flock" as Max called them. Haha, flock I mean yeah, they had wings but it's a bit stupid to call a bunch of kids a flock don't you think? I'm sure Max had thought of it alone. Nudge was now murmuring softly to the blind dude who was listening raptly, his face looked determined and then softened as he comforted Nudge, sensing she was upset about something. I looked around the cave for some sort of escape from the scene, Gazzy. He was lying on his stomach cuddling the dog they had.
"Hey kiddy" I grinned down at him.
Gazzy's POV:
"Hey kiddy" Phoeno smiled down at me.
I rolled my eyes; I'm eight, hardly a kiddy! Max was the only one who called me kid, but that was kiddo, which was much better than kiddy. "Hi," I said quietly, tired of being treated as a little boy. It's about time I was though of as older. I'd proved I could look after myself when the flock had split up. That guy from the ghosts said so too.
Phoeno's POV:
"Hi," he muttered, subdued. Cheer up dude, I thought. Maybe he wasn't my escape from the rest of the weirdos; he was probably one of them. Fang please come back.
