Hey I'm so sorry about the wait, but I've been so busy with my high school application that needs to be in by the 15th of December. I'm taking the SSAT tomorrow, so wish me luck! I have kept you waiting long enough soooooo…

On with the story!11

Angel POV

The 'new teacher' was weird. He not only drank from a funky flask thing, but I had a hard time reading his mind. It was all foggy with bursts of images every ten seconds. I've never read the mind of a clinically insane person before so maybe that's it. Oh desserts!

Fang POV

He was stuffed as he followed Harry, Ron, and Hermione up to Gryffindor Tower. It was late and Fang was ready to hit the hay. Max was walking beside him trying not to yawn with Angel in her arms and Gazzy was snoring on her back with his legs and arms wrapped tightly around her. Nudge and her friends were talking sleepily and yawning. Iggy had his hand on Fang's robes and his eyes were closed. People were giving them odd looks, but Max gave them one of her famous glares.

Max handed Gazzy to Fang and followed Nudge and her friends to the first year dorm room to put Angel to bed. She came back down and gave him a goodnight kiss on the cheek before racing up to her room to meet her roommates and pass out.

Fang hauled Gazzy up the opposite staircase and dropped him on the floor with a thud in front of his room when he didn't wake up. Gazzy jumped up and got into a fighting stance, but Fang just socked his arm gently.

"Get some sleep in a bed Gasser, not on me."

Gaz was disconcerted and had to blink a few times before he got up and went into his room. Iggy chuckled when he heard the sound of a body falling onto a bed. Fang grinned slightly and pulled Iggy up to their room.

Fang smiled at Harry and went over to the bed beside his that had his stuff on it.

He was out like a light.

When he woke up in the morning the first thing he said was, "Where's Max?"

Harry chuckled and through a pillow. Fang easily caught it.

*What was that for?*

*You just made yourself sound like a lovesick puppy Fang. Wake up before you embarrass yourself further.*

Fang felt a hard pinch in his head and flinched.

"I'm up you gits! Now let's eat breakfast."

He slugged Harry's shoulder when the boy burst into laughter. Fang pulled on fresh robes from his trunk and loaded his bag with books. *Here goes nothing.* Fang thought to himself as he strode down the stairs and right into Max's arms.

"Hey Fang, it took you long enough! Gazzy's been whining for a good ten minutes. Let's get out of here."

Harry, Ron, and Hermione came down the staircases and rushed to join them on the way to the Great Hall. The large group wove through the school with little shortcut hints from Harry and Fang. They were in sight of the doors when Angel nudged his shoulder. Draco Malfoy and his minions are following us. Fang nodded and squeezed Max's arm. She looked at him curiously and he made a slight gesture to Angel. He knew that Angel had told Max because of the fact that her eyes became hard. Fang slipped his arm around her waist to calm her down. Angel's message passed to everyone.

"Hello Draco, do you need help with something?" Angel queried without turning around.

"Yes, we need to know what you and your friends are now. We don't want you to get hurt now do we?" he smirked.

Fang shook his head. Draco had messed up again. If he kept it up he would join the long list of people killed by Max. The idiot didn't realize what he'd done though.

"We are… Americans. Now leave us alone." Angel enunciated slowly.

"Or else I'll rip your head off and burn it." Max added ferociously.

They scowled, but walked past Fang and the others. HE shook his head at the same time that Harry did.

"Barmy git will end up dead at the rate he's going!" They cried together.

"You're starting to sound like Fred and George now boys." Ginny said as she passed.

All of the Flock's stomachs growled at the same time. Everyone in the hallway stared at the group with shock.

"What? We need a lot of food or else our stomachs growl." Max hissed, still angry after the encounter with Malfoy.

Fang guided her quickly toward the doors and they opened the doors together. He dropped her hand and launched himself toward the Gryffindor table. A minute later he was on his second helping of pancakes, Max was fighting over the strawberries with Angel, Gazzy was just grabbing food with his hands and shoving it down his gullet, Iggy was asking where the waffles were, and Harry, Ron, and Hermione were eating just like they usually did.

Professor McGonagall walked up and looked at Gazzy with distaste because he was making a big mess of things.

"Mr. Gasman, you need to eat properly." She decreed.

Gazzy just shoveled more food down his throat unperturbed until he was finished.

"Professor, I can't help it. I'm sure Dumbledore has enlightened you about our situation and calorie intake. If you want me to eat properly you need to tell Malfoy and his cronies not to stop us on the way to breakfast." Gazzy said taking a large swig of pumpkin juice.

"Wow that is the smartest thing you've ever said Gasser!" Iggy exclaimed in awe.

Gaz just beamed and puffed out his chest proudly. McGonagall just shook her head and them their schedules.

"Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasley, Miss Granger, the other Mr. Potter, and Miss Angel will help you to catch up in your classes for those of your who may need it." She said curtly and returned to the Head Table.

Fang looked down at his schedule. It changed daily, so none of his homework was due the next day. That was good. He had Defense Against the Dark Arts, Potions, a free period, and Divination that day. The next day he would have History of Magic, Muggle Studies, two free periods, and then Care of Magical Creatures.

"Come on guys let's get to class." Harry said after he gave Nudge and her friends, Angel, and Gazzy all of the possible routes to and from their classes.

"Let's go see what Moody is like." Harry suggested.

Fang nodded, tugging Max to her feet. She nodded and held his hand out of the hall.
