Ok everyone, I want to make this very clear. I am currently pissed because some people think that I write chapters that are too short and I don't update enough. Well, the chapters are about half a page on Word!! Anyway, I would like to point out that I am NORMAL so I make mistakes like grammer errors(Word doesn't pick up everything you know) and not knowing the blind people do blink. As for not updating enough, I try to update after every couple of reviews but I do have a life! I'm not like some computer nerd (no offense to anyone) who stays in her room all day typing!! I'm not the smartest person ever because I currently am working on the sequal to this (the faster you review the faster you get the story) and I have writer's block! So anyway, I would prefer that ALL reviews are postive and understand that I am normal so I do make mistakes. Thanks a bunch for reading this!

P.S. Does anyone know what condone means??

P.S.S. The next chapter is one of the longest.

P.S.S.S. I don't own Maximum Ride, JP does.


Chapter Eleven: Decoded

I blinked and my eyes widened. My mouth was open, no sound coming out. No one said anything for a long time. The only sound that could be heard was the now burnt toast popping up out of the toaster.

"They shall allow the blind to see," Max mumbled, quoting the prophecy. "I never thought…" I lifted my hand up, holding up all five of my fingers. It was the ultimate test to see if I wasn't going crazy.

"How many fingers am I holding up?" I asked, everyone holding their breath for an answer.

"Four fingers and a thumb," Iggy answered without hesitation. Yet again, an awkward silence filled the room. I blinked a couple times, staring at Iggy.

"Someone pinch me, I'm dreaming," I muttered. "OW!! I didn't mean it literally!" I shouted as Angel pinched me.

"You said to," she said smiling in her angelic way. I rolled my eyes and then I noticed Fang wasn't there. Probably sleeping in. I heard angry mutters and then I saw Fang drag himself into the kitchen.

"Hey guys. Why are we all staring at Iggy?" he muttered like a drunkard.

"Hello Fang, your hair is sticking up on one side," Iggy said walking over to stand next to me.

"I know that…! Wait a second! How'd you know that?!" Fang asked suddenly awake. Iggy only blinked. Fang looked as if someone had just slapped him across the face. "How…?" Fang stuttered, looking at Max.

"Don't look at me," Max said, holding up her hands in an 'I'm innocent' way. Fang immediately looked at Angel.

"Nope. Ask Kate. She might have an answer," Angel said pointing in my direction. Fang turned to look at me. He wasn't glaring at me with hatred like Gazzy, but looking at me with a questioning look.

"I think it was me. I just don't know how I did it," I said. "It might have been when I kissed Iggy…"

"What?!" Max shouted, disbelief written across her face. Fang still looked like someone had slapped him across the face, Gazzy still glared at me with the same intensity, and Nudge and Angel didn't look that surprised. I rolled my eyes as I guessed that Angel told Nudge everything she found in everyone else's' heads. Fang broke the forth awkward silence of the day.

"If you did do this, you most likely have healing powers, not the power to see into the future like we thought, and to heal something, you probably have to come in close contact with whatever you're healing. If you just kissed him on the lips, that would have had no effect," Fang said. Wow, that was the most I had ever heard him say.

"I didn't just kiss him on the lips," I said. "I kissed him on the temple just before I fell asleep. How I remember that I don't really know."

"That would answer it," Max muttered. "I can't believe that this is happening."

"What about the rest of it mean?" I asked, referring to the prophecy that laid out my destiny.

"I think I know," I heard from behind me. The next thing I knew, Fang was shoving me and Iggy against a wall. I felt my right wing forcefully being unfolded and I looked over to see Iggy's left wing being held down by Fang like mine.

"I get it now," I heard Max mumble from behind me.

"What the hell are you talking about?!" Iggy shouted, trying to look over his shoulder.

"This!" Fang shouted, turning us both around quickly and holding onto my right wing and Iggy's left. I saw Iggy's blond feathers against my black and red ones, opposite colors. We, Iggy and I, had fallen in love with each other. It all made perfect sense. Iggy looked at me, and I could tell that he had figured it out too. Now all we had to do was save the world.
