I woke up in the morning completely alone in my room. The silence was
both calming and overwhelming. My heart raced as there knock on the
door. I walked over to the door, and slowly opened it. I peeked out.
Standing outside the door was Harry and Fang.
"Open the door Rose. We need to sit and talk about your wings." Fang said.
My wings? What in the world was he talking about. I didn't have wings
like them. My hand shot to my back, and resting against my back I
could feel feathers. How did I have wings all of the sudden? Then the
memories from last night rushed back.
I opened the door quickly, and sat down on my bed. Harry sat beside
me concerned about me. Quietly, I rested my head on his shoulder. Fang
pulled a chair up across from us after Slash walked in and closed the
door. From the corner of my eye I could see Harry giving Slash a look
of deep disgust.
"The wings are going to make your life ten times harder, because now
you not only have death eaters after you, but those half wolf things
too." Harry told me.
"We call the Erasers because they try to erase the other science
experiments from the face of the Earth." Slash stated.
"Anyway, Harry and I have talked and we figured out two options for
you. You can either leave all of this behind and come with the flock
and I. Or you can go to the school you usually go to, and the flock
and I will come with you. Harry is fixed on the belief it is safe."
Fang said.
"It is safe. Dumbeldore and Hagrid are there. My father's old friend
Remus Luppin will also be there. Then Snape may not like Harry, but he
knows who I really am and would do anything to protect me." I stayed.
"So I assume you choose going back to school." Fang said.
I nodded quietly. A couple hours later I sat down and pulled up my
computer. I had decided to stay in my room cut off from people for the
day. let everything about what happened yesterday sink in along with
the fact I have wings now.

Every rose has its thorn: Hey Allay are you on?

Special in my mind: Of course I'm on. How'd it go with the bird kids?

Every rose has its thorn: Decent. I ended up taking a walk after
talking to them and Slash followed me. I'm glad he did though because
one of those dog things showed up.

Special in my mind: OH MY GOD! Are you okay?

Every rose has its thorn: Yeah, I'm fine. I now have wings though.
Please don't tell your mom yet. I want to be the one to tell her. I
still haven't completely taken in the fact I have wings yet.

Special in my mind: You have my word that I won't tell yet. If you
need someone to talk to out there I'm sure the twins will be glad to
listen.

Every rose has its thorn: Well, I've actually considered going and
talking to Slash about it. For some reason I feel comfortable talking
to him. I even told him about my parents last night.

Special in my mind: Holy shit Rose. You wouldn't even tell me about
them until last summer.

Every rose has its thorn: There's just something there that I'm able to talk to.

Special in my mind: Then why are you holding back and talking to me
Rose. Go talk to Mr. Slash. Get your deepest, darkest thoughts out.

Every rose has its thorn: I'm afraid to right now though. Harry is
keeping a close watch on me, and I can tell he doesn't like Slash very
much.

Special in my mind: Of course Harry doesn't like Slash. You are
Harry's baby sister basically. The only family he has left is you.
Then this new guy comes into your life and shows interest in you he's
going to get all defensive.

Every rose has its thorn: You can't be certain about that.

Special in my mind: Yes Rose, yes I can. No go talk to Slash. If Harry
wants to fuss about it tell him to contact me.

Every rose has its thorn: You are a piece of work Allay. a major
piece of work. I'll go though.

Special in my mind: Good girl.

Every rose has its thorn: Whatever.

Special in my mind has logged off.

Every rose has its thorn has logged off.

I closed the computer and got up. I walked over to the door and
opened it. Slash was there getting ready to knock on the door. He had
food with him so I smiled. I let him walk in, and then I closed the
door.
"I was actually just getting ready to come talk to you." I told him.
"Ha, I knew you couldn't resist me." He laughed.
"I can too resist you. You are just an easy person to talk to about
things. Then again I don't know you very well, so what's the use of
talking to you about anything. Thanks for bringing me food. Bye." I
said.
"Come on, it was just a joke. Sorry if I offended you." He said
before I could get him out of the room.
I rolled my eyes and went back to my bed where my laptop was. I
opened my laptop and pulled up the photo book I was creating about my
adventures. I used the laptop to take a picture of Slash to put in the
section labeled "People I've Met". I put the picture in that section
then logged out.
