Disclaimer: here's chapter 3 of my Figgy story. Enjoy!I don't own the characters in Maximum Ride, but I do, however, have the right to cause them emotional distress. What fun! (p.s…this chapter is in both Fang's and Iggy's prospective)

Fang's Prov

Oh my god, thought Fang to himself, what have I done? He could hear Iggy's muffled sobs emanating from inside his room. Fang was feeling horrible about himself. He had messed around with his best friend's sister, and Iggy had seen him. He knew Iggy liked him, because Fang himself liked Iggy. But he just couldn't muster up the courage to tell Iggy…or anyone else for that matter. What would they think?

Max came up behind Fang, and tapped him on the shoulder so that he turned around and looked her in the eyes.

"Just what do you have to say for yourself, mister?" she was giving him a hard and cold look, and her eyes were boring into his.

"I---" Fang began, but Max immediately cut him off.

"No, don't even start. I don't want to say anything to you anyway. I know how Iggy feels about you, and I'm pretty sure you feel the same way about him. How could you do that to Iggy? You make me sick." She looked him up and down with disgust, and walked away to send Loraine home.

Oh great. Thought Fang as he put a trembling hand over his eyes. Now I've really screwed up. Everyone here hates me!

"Iggy..?" spoke Fang softly, trying desperately to communicate with his hurt friend. The sobbing stopped.

"Look, I'm sorry…I just---"

"I don't want to speak to you anymore, Fang, so get lost and don't come back!" Iggy's words stung like someone had slapped him. Fang was hurt, so and slowly retreated down the stairs and slunk out of the house. When he was finally outside, he had only one thought. Maybe I shouldn't come back.

Iggy's Prov

Good. He thought to himself. Maybe now he won't come back. Iggy's sadness had quickly turned to rage and hate. How dare Fang do this to him!

"What a looser." Iggy said through tears. Someone knocked on his door three times, and Iggy knew it was Angel. He whipped the tears from his eyes, trying to look presentable for Angel and to not scare her.

"Come on in, Angel." The door silently creaked open, and Angel's little pitter patter of feet made its way over to where Iggy was sitting on his bed. She sat next to him, and rested her soft head of golden curls on his shoulder.

"Iggy?" she whispered, as if she was afraid to make a noise.

"Yes?"

"What was all that yelling about…it scared me." Iggy rapped his arm around her thing shoulders and pulled her tighter.

"It was…it was nothing. Fang and I just got into a little fight, that's all. Everything's all right, don't you worry."

Alright," Angel sighed, "if you say so." She got up and left the room. Iggy let out a forlorn sigh. He hated lying to Angel. If only he could have told her the truth, that he and Fang didn't just get into a little fight.

Fang's Prov

He didn't know how long he had been wandering in search of a place to hide from the Flock, but it hadn't amounted to anything because he still hadn't found a good hiding spot. It had to be someplace where no one in the Flock knew about, somewhere secluded and quiet, where Fang could get some thinking done. As his feet crunched in the frozen snow and flakes of it landed on his hair and thin clothing, it dawned on him. He would go to that place where he had been the night before with Iggy. Fang started sprinting towards that clearing, knowing all too well that Iggy knew its location, for that was exactly Fang's cunning plan.

Iggy's Prov

It was getting dark, and it was almost dinner time. He figured that it was time to go down and face the Flock, so he quietly opened thedoor, which thankfully didn't squeak as it usually always did. He slowly made his way down the hallway until he finally made it to the top of the staircase, where he slid down the banister noiselessly. But, instead of the usual happy chatter that occurred during dinner time, all he could hear was four pairs of sobs. Sensing trouble, Iggy made his way into the living room and could hear Gassy, Angel, Nudge, and Max all cry.

"Guys, what's going on?" Iggy asked, slightly alarmed. Max spoke, and her voice was choked with tears.

"Fang's missing. We haven't seen him for hours."
