Iggy POV:
Fang and I walked quietly towards the end of the street. We didn't really feel like talking after our little Doctor Phil session.
As we got closer to the street, I grabbed Fang's arm and immediately stopped walking. I listened as hard as I could; I could've sworn that I had heard something……a scream? I listened again.
"What is it?" Fang asked quietly not daring to move away from my grasp. I heard it once more and I knew what it was immediately.
"Angel…." I whispered. And without another thought Fang and I bolted toward the noise. We ran as fast as we could and I could still hear Angel's cries.
We had been safe for a week but we shouldn't off been so off guard! If we stay in place too long, we at risk of being found. I should have known that this would have been too good to last! I should have gone and watched over the kids while they got the ice-cream instead of talking to Fang! So if anything has happened to them…….it's all my fault.
As we got closer, I heard Nudge and Ella trying to comfort Angel who was crying and I am pretty sure that Total was crying too. But then I realized something, I couldn't hear Gazzy.
"Where's Gazzy," I asked trying to sound as calm as possible, but I could hear the panic in my voice.
"He was taken by the guy in the ice-cream truck," Nudge said sounding really worried. I could practically see the fear on her face.
"We ordered what we wanted, and when the man came back with Gazzy's, he pulled him into the truck and drove off." Ella said. I could tell that she was crying.
"And now he's gone." Angel added sounding distraught. I knelt down and put an arm around her shaking shoulders.
"We'll get him back Ange, I promise." I whispered into her ear. At that moment, without warning, I heard Fang running in the way he did before he took off.
"Fang, What the hell are you doing?" I shouted. "We have no plan and you can't rescue him by yourself!" But, of course, he didn't listen to me. If he got himself killed, where would that leave us? I heard his wings start to beat wildly as he became airborne. God, I hoped that no-one was around when he pulled that stunt. I let go of Angel and turned to Ella.
"Ella, take Angel and total home, now! Nudge and I will go after Fang. When you get in the house lock the doors and only open them for your mom, okay?" Silence.
"Ella?" I frowned.
"I'm nodding Ig," She answered quietly, if I had a dollar for every time that I have heard that…..
"I want to help!" Angel said stubbornly. This was not the best time!
"Angel, I know that you want to come but I don't want to lose anyone else. Please Ange, just listen to me for once." Great, I was begging to a six year old, but at least it worked. In the end, she agreed to go back to the house with Ella. Total didn't even bother to argue, I think that he was still angry about the paint incident.
And together, Nudge and I took off.
*****************************************************************************************************************************************************
"Can you see him?" I asked Nudge as soon as we were airborne.
"Yeah, I think so. What do you want to do?" Right, for now, I was in charge. And I had absolutely no freaking clue what we were going to do when we caught up to Fang.
"We should catch up to him first and then we will see what happens, I guess." I answered sounding quite confident. I hope that Nudge didn't pick up on the fact that I had no clue as to what I was doing.
Eventually, I heard the steady beat of Fangs wings as we came up behind him.
"FANG!" I shouted over the wind. "What are you planning to do?"
He didn't answer. I heard Nudge flap faster; hopefully she could get him to slow down.
"Fang, slow down! We can help you; just tell us what you want us to do!" Nudge yelled, sounding determined.
I listened hard as I could, praying that Fang would slow down. And to my surprise, he did. Nudge and I caught up to him easily and waited to find out what he wanted us to do.
"The van is directly below us," he murmured as we flew at a general pace. "We'll fly down, break open the door, get Gazzy out and then fly off."
This was all sounding so familiar. This is like what had happened to Angel so long ago. And that didn't go well, but this time we had the advantage. As far as I could tell, they didn't have a chopper, so we could easily get in and out without much difficulty. However, if they had guns…….we were screwed.
Fang POV
I didn't listen to Iggy as I did my running take off. I knew that he was right, but just last week, I had lost one of our family and I wasn't about to lose another one!
I jumped into the air and flapped my wings to get airborne. I felt that familiar sensation that I got when flying that I hadn't felt since Max left. But I brushed it aside and put on as much speed as possible.
Using my raptor vision, I found the ice-cream truck in no time and now all I had to do was catch it.
"Fang, what are you planning to do?" I heard Iggy yell from behind me. I stole a quick glance over my shoulder. Nudge and Ig were flying as fast as they could, trying to catch up with me. The key word in that sentence was 'trying.' I might not be as fast as Max, but I was still faster than the others. Before I slowed down, I needed to at least catch up to the van. I was almost there.
"Fang slowdown, we can help you; Just tell us what you want us to do!" Nudge screamed over the wind. I caught up to the van and then slowed down, so that they could catch up.
"What you want us to do?" Iggy asked sounding warn out after the chase.
That was a good question. I hadn't really thought past catching up to the van. It was one of my spare-of-the-moment ideas. I guess you could say that I pulled a 'Max.'
"The van is directly below us," I murmured. "We'll fly down, break open the door, get Gazzy out and then fly off." Nudge and Iggy nodded. Yep, it sounded like an alright plan and I thought that we could easily pull it off.
"On the count of three," I said in a calm voice. "One........two........THREE!" I shouted, as Ig, Nudge and I dove toward the van. When we got close, I saw a few startled faces as people saw us bird kids chasing the ice-cream van.
I directed Ig to one of the handles and I grabbed the other. Nudge flew close to me waiting for the right moment.
"Now!" I shouted. And Iggy and I yanked the doors open without much trouble.
I let go of the door handle and jumped into the still moving van, followed by Nudge and then Iggy. I saw Gazzy bound and gagged in the corner and was about to rush over to him when I noticed that we weren't alone. There was a man guarding Gazzy, and he had a gun. Crap.
The last things that I remember was the sound of a gun going off, Nudge screaming, a stinging pain in my right wing and the feeling of myself falling out of the still moving van.
OMG! Don't worry faithful readers, Fang doesn't die! I repeat, Fang doesn't die. No-one else in this fanfiction will die; I think that the Flock has suffered enough, don't you? I had an idea about what is going to happen to Gazzy last night before I went to bed and I just HAD to put it in. I promise you, that Gaz has been taken for a reason and I am sure that you will like that reason. Also, I am sorry about leaving you with ANOTHER cliffie but I can't help the way that I write! LOL
PLEASE REVIEW!!!!!!!! I would love to hear what you think! I have put a lot of time and effort into dis story!
