A/N: OK! So mini cutesy chapter to meet the flock so enjoy!

I stood up brushing the dust off of my hospital clothes, after a few hours of flying the flock and I had finally landed next to a charming little lake surrounded by a small forest of trees. The blonde boy who had been carrying me made a rather clumsy landing. I was not particularly annoyed for I was staring at the beautiful scenery around me. I had never really seen trees or felt grass before. I had only caught glimpses of it in the distance as I flew. I was gawking at everything, then bent to feel the grass, so soft!

"Are you enjoying yourself?"

I glanced up to see Fang looking at me with kind brown eyes. I blushed realizing I must look ridiculous crawling around on my hands and knees. I stood and nodded.

"It's my first time seeing trees and grass. I'm just amazed right now."

He chuckled and took a bag off his back. When he opened it he produced granola bars and handed one to me. I took it, never having eaten one before I was shocked by its taste. Practically swallowing it whole I finished off the bar and thanked Fang with a smile.

"Someone sounded hungry."

I spun to face the blond boy who had spoken. He was standing not too far from me except he was facing the other direction. He was rotating his right shoulder, stretching out a large cream coloured wing.

"Um…We'll it's just that it's better than the food I normally eat."

"I won't argue there."

He turned and gave me a bright smile although he wasn't exactly looking at me. I felt a tug on my arm pulling my attention to the girl, Nudge, who then handed me a bundle of clothes. I stared at them not entirely sure what to do.

"You can go change over there. These are my extra's but you're not that much taller than me so they should fit."

She motioned towards a large tree. I nodded slowly but before I went behind the tree I trudged over to Max and felt so incredibly embarrassed as I whispered.

"Um…Could you…would you mind helping me with these?"

She looked down at my bundle then nodded. She strode confidently to the tree as I shuffled shyly behind her. If there had been a hole nearby I would have crawled in it and probably not come out for an incredibly long time.

"You never wore clothes like this?"

"No only the ones the school gave me and normally I was be either passed out or too hurt to be able to do it myself."

I saw a look of pity cross her face and I blushed. I had always felt vulnerable then, like I did now. Only this time I had nothing to fear. Max showed me how to put on the clothes, which consisted of undergarments (courtesy of Max for we were luckily the same size even though she was much taller) a purple tank top with space for wings, cute denim shorts, blue shoes with socks and a feather light white sweater. When I finally emerged from behind the tree I felt a lot more free than in my other clothes and…happier. I thanked Nudge for the clothes. The others had already prepared a mini bonfire going even though it was not quite dark yet. I sat on the grass in between Fang and Angel.

"So…uh, who are you? Your new and I know you helped my sister but what's your name?"

I turned to see a boy with seriously blond hair, clear blue eyes and cream coloured wings. I was at first extremely confused because he had said 'sister.' I stammered.

"I…uh…um…subject 04 of project aviaries 2.0. 14 years of age. Um…Who are you?"

"Gassman, but you can call me Gazzy. I'm Angel's older brother."

I stared shocked. The boy looked more like Nudge's age, eleven, not eight. I quickly snapped out of it staring down at my hands.

"Don't you have a name?"

I looked up to meet the blond boys questioning look. I then shook my head curling my legs up to my chest and hugging them tight. Fang put a hand on my arm which stopped me from rocking back and forth.

"My name is Iggy. I'm 14 also. Don't you have a name? Like any at all, that someone might have called you?"

Recognition sparked in my memory. Angel had told me back at the school that one of her friends was blind. This boy, who had carried me all this way and didn't even know where he was going! How did he…? Just wow.

"Um, actually I don't have a name like that,"

"We'll you should pick one."

I turned my head to stare at Fang. The rest of the flock chorused agreement. I tried to think of a name that fit me. Everyone at the school had called me 4 or subject 04 except…there had been a cleaning lady who had sometimes smuggled me extra food. She would always talk to me so kindly and treat me well. She had once called me miki which meant small in Inupiaq. I chuckled, I was small for my age, barely taller than Nudge who was three years younger.

"Miki. I want my name to be Miki."

"Miki…That's so cute! What does it mean?" (Nudge)

"It means small. A kind care taker called me it often and I believe it fits me well."

"it really does fit you."

I turned to Fang who ruffled my hair. I gave him a stern look and fixed my hair then smiled at the group. I had a name. I was no longer a number but a real person with a name, Miki.

The flock sat around and talked until the sun began to set. Everyone seemed so happy, even Fang who did not say much. Iggy always seemed to have a sarcastic comment that would make me laugh along with Nudge always so bubbly and Gazzy was pretty funny. It felt like I had a family and as I lay down to sleep I felt content and as though a large weight had been lifted off my back.

A/N: So I found the name off some naming website so I don't actually know anything bout being Inupiaq or speaking it. I just thought it was cute. So anyway! I hope you enjoyed and if anyone was OOC please tell me so R&R!
