So. Were did I leave off? Oh yeah, flying in the sun. Right.
" I'm hungry," Grettah complained. "When can we make camp?" The others looked at me, the same question reflection in their eyes.
"Uhm, how about over there. There is a nice forest. We can make a fire too." I replied, starting to bank toward the left. The flock followed.
When we landed, Mason and Theris went to work building a fire. I opened my bag, the one that is brown, and sort of falling apart. I grabbed a bag of Lotz 'o Butter Popped Corn and a little pan. Ange, my little helper, grabbed a bag of grapes.
Things like grapes, oranges, and any other type of fruit really were a rarity. We didn't really get to drop into a supermarket every week. No, even that was too dangerous. The RARs are always watching. That is the gang slang for Really Annoying Robots. They are really called the Friends. As if. The Government decided that, since we got away (more on escape later.) they would make something to destroy/capture/all of the above.
But anyway, we got dinner ready, and the boys set up camp. So here is deal with the flock/group.
…
My name (as you now know) is Justeen. I have the wings of a golden eagle. Yes, you read right. I said WINGS. The scientists thought it was a genetic break through, but I think it was evil. Who breeds kids with wings? I'm not the only one either. All eight kids have wings of some sort. I can also breathe underwater and speak to all forms of marine life. I also have some kind of feline bred into me, 'cuz I can run up to 90 mph. I have goldish-brown hair, and dark green eyes. Think, Christmas Tree (without the lights and stuff) green.
My best friend, and second in command is Mason Vern. He and Theris are always playing pranks and building things. Mase is an amazing person. If I was the mother (which I am not, thank god), he would be the dad. He is very smart, and can think on his feet. Mase has some sort of barn owl's wings. The are about 14- 15 ft. across. They are gray on the primary feathers, and mostly brown on the secondary feathers. He has dark brown hair that hangs by his ears, and large hazel eyes.
My other best friend is Francine. She got some panther DNA, so, as you can imagine, she can see and run very well. Francine is from Jamaican Dissent, so she has coffee colored skin and very thick black/brown hair. Her eyes are so dark, they are almost black. Fran has the wings of a falcon; they are almost the same color of her skin, only a bit lighter. Fran is very aloof, and very quiet.
Ah, Grettah. What a sweetie. She, if any of us did, hit the jackpot on the whole 'genetic-mutant-freak' thing. Grettah can actually morph her figure. I'm talkin' she can be anything from a sparrow to an echidna, whatever that is. And get this: she is only four years old. She really is a cutie, though. She has short strawberry blonde hair and light, light brown eyes. She is very pale, and she looks like a little porcelain doll. She is very creative and very fun. She has another name, the name on her birth certificate is really Hannah Grace. (but she hates it, so don't tell her I told you.)
Next, we move to Dessi. If anyone is the most adventurous, it is Miss Dessi Spear. Dessi is our little huntress. She has a bow and arrow made out of maple and bone, a present for her 11th birthday. Dessi is twelve. She is strong, smart, and very stealthy. She seems to melt into the trees if you don't watch her carefully. She probably came from some island in the Pacific, most likely the Philippines or Hawaii. She has straight black hair and tan shin. Her facial features seemed almost flat, except for her high cheekbones. Her wings are black and dark as night. Her favorite color is purple, and, despite her attitude, is a total fashion diva.
Next, we have our twins, the dynamic duo, Ange and Gabe Cellar. They look almost identical (well, except for the fact that Gabe is a guy…). Identical black hair, identical eyes, even identical skin tones. Ange is a sweet little girl, but she is very bossy. They both have short, curly black hair ( I mean truly black. Their hair shines purple.) and deep blue eyes. They have naturally tan skin. Gabe is a master of engineering and problem solving. The boy could be locked in a padded cell with nothing but a few grapes and a hair band, and still get out.
Lastly, we come to Theris. Theris Floers can communicate with animals of all kinds. Fish, Mammals, Birds, Reptiles; he can do it all. He also influence people's thoughts (which is kinda creepy, because you don't know when he is doing it). He is nine, and he is sort of ditsy. He has curly dark red hair and large blue eyes. His wings are the most special, if you ask me. He has the wings of a dragon like creature, called a Gretamack. They resemble a bat's wings; vein covered and thin. But, unlike the Gretamack, his wings have thin, wispy feathers. His wings are dark mahogany, almost the color of his hair. So there you go. The descriptions of my guys.
