Chapter Two: Discovery
I woke up in greater pain than I have ever been in and tied to a tree. My eyes opened slowly to see six pairs of eyes staring at me, three pairs widened, two narrowed into slits, and one staring in my general direction, sightless. "Yeah, this is her alright," I heard one say.
"I guess Jeb was right after all. There's a first time for everything," another said with a large amount of sarcasm.
"Did she have anything on her?"
"Nothing but the clothes on her back and this." I heard a thud as my book fell to the floor, crunching several leaves in the process.
"Fang, you know she's awake right?" I heard a sweet voice ask. I knew that voice even though it was the first time I had truly heard it.
"Angel?" I managed to mumble. I felt drugged but I knew six avian-hybrids didn't have access to drugs.
"That would explain the book with my name on it," Max said. "Ok, listen kid, since I'm a good person, I'm gonna untie you. If you run away, I'll have Fang here come after you. Understand?" I nodded. Max untied me rather quickly and I stood up. I saw everyone, Iggy, Fang, Max, Nudge, Angel, Gasman, that I had spent less than a year reading about and had already learned to love them. I stared wide-eyed in wonder and enjoyment. "Take a picture. It'll last longer," Fang mumbled. I smiled weakly and turned to face Max. She looked at me for a moment and smiled. "That's her. Ig, you're in charge of carrying her when we fly."
"What do you mean?"
"Look," Max said putting a hand on my shoulder. "This is a lot to comprehend in a single day. We're taking you back to Colorado and we'll explain everything there. By the way, you got a name?"
"It's Katie."
"Welcome to the Flock, Katie."
I know the ending's kind of corny. I don't care really. Just read and review..please. :)
