Chapter 7
All she did was point to an all to familiar Eraser. When did she ever meet him?
;:;:;:;:;:;:;
"What are you doing here Ari?" I asked, "and how did you know Ari?" I asked Ella.
Ella answered first. "Remember the first time we meet you? Well, after you left, Jeb and Ari came and told us to not tell anyone or we will be in big trouble. Mom and I agreed because he had a lot of Erasers with him. He then introduced us to Ari, who will be tracking us down if we told."
Then Ari, "I was told by Jeb to come get you. He made me take the new batch of Erasers. They know absolutely nothing expect the School, people at the School, self-defense, your flock, their names, and that you have wings. That's why they weren't attacking you at first, no one said your name and you didn't show your wings. And they only fight when they are attacked first."
I guess that kind of made sense. "Where's Jeb?" I asked. He just shrugged. "Then how did you guys find us?"
"You have more than one chip in your body. We were also going to at 11, but you guys were at school and we only need you. Possibly Ella too. Depending on what they are going to do." Ari responded. I stood frozen. I have another chip in my body? And they track me with it? That's kind of scary.
Ari brought me out of my daze when he then said, "I really don't want to do this. So if you can pretend this never happened, you can leave and we can too." Ella and I nodded. The Erasers then left.
:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:
When we came home, Angel came up to us and hugged us.
I was scared that Ari and the Erasers we going to take you and Ella to the School. don't worry, I didn't tell anyone about it. Angel told me in my mind.
About….. I asked her. the singing thing or the Erasers?
Both. She answered. Good, we didn't need everyone asking me about the singing and what the Erasers wanted.
"Max, can we see if I really have a new power or I am just good at taking multiple choice questions?" Nudge said. Wow, that was short for Nudge. I nodded and told Ella to do a question on her social studies homework.
When she finished she read the question to us, "What branch of the Federal government is the president part of? A) Executive. B) Legislative. Or C) Judicial."
"A," Nudge answered as soon as Ella finished the question.
"Well, that was kind of easy if you think about it because she probably remembered our field trip to the White House while we were in school at Anne's. Give her another one, but isn't multiple choice," Gazzy said.
Ella nodded, finished another question, and read it to us again. "What was the Monroe Doctrine and what year was it made?"
"The Monroe Doctrine was an American diplomatic decision which greatly influenced the world and the way it has developed to present day. It was a policy initiated by President James Monroe in 1823 which aimed to limit European expansion into the Western Hemisphere," Nudge answered. We all stared at her, even my mom who walked by because she knows Ella just learned it the day we came. Nudge smiled and said, "I knew it, I knew I had a new power."
Iggy then said, "I can spell anyone someone tells me."
"Lets try it!" Gazzy said and Angel got the dictionary. "Spell….this word," She gave it to my mom to read.
"Heteronymous," Mom said.
"H-E-T-E-R-O-N-Y-M-O-U-S," Iggy said. Everyone was surprised, besides Fang and myself because we were the first to help him discover it. Even Total, who just wondered what the word was and asked, "What does that mean?"
"It means… I don't know. What kind of dictionary do we have? It doesn't even tell you the definition." My mom said. We all shrugged and went to do our homework.
For Fang, Iggy and mine science homework, we had to write a paragraph about what we know about birds. I mean really, BIRDS! We are 2% bird. I don't think it's fair.
"Hey Mom!" I called,
"Yea?" She answered.
"Why do we have homework about birds?" Then I could hear the while flock, Ella and my mom laughing.
"I…don't know…sweetie." She replied in between laughs.
Fang, Iggy and I then started laughing because we just realized how funny it actually was. In mean, we are 2% bird, learning about birds.

? POV
I can't believe the 3 oldest flock members are learning about birds. I think that is funny. I started laughing. Then my 'boss' asked my why I was laughing. I told him that the flock was learning about birds. He then joined me. I can't wait to go to their school. I also know the perfect time to come into their lives. I just need the 'teacher' to help me. Even though I know he will help. He is, after all, my 'boss' in disguise. So that will help. I wonder how they will react to seeing me again.
Review please. Also, sorry it took so long. Try to guess who the ? Person is
