A/N: I'm bored again...I think I'll UPDATE! ENJOY! ;D P.S. I forgot to mention that in the last chapter, Max and Fang were each given a special belt with spots to hold weapons (places for 3 seraph blades, a dagger, and their stele) and a dagger. Thx! ;D

All of a sudden, I felt really exposed, and self-conscious, because I was afraid they would notice the Marks. Fang seemed to read my mind and looked over at Ella.
"Don't worry," she whispered, reassuringly, "all your Marks are fully glamoured, none of the Flock will be able to see them."
I gave her a look that said, thank you. She nodded back.
"Hey guys!" I said, "How was your walk?"
"It was awesome!" Nudge started, "We went around in circles, and went really fast! We got to see a whole bunch of things and we went out for ice cream! What's your favorite flavor of ice cream? Mine is Chocolate! Oooh! With sprinkles! And a cherry, with butterscotch syrup! I just LOVE butterscotch, I mean, anyone who doesn't like butterscotch is crazy! Wait...do you all like butterscotch, because I didn't mean to hurt anyone's feelings. Hey! Why did you guys stay behind? What was so impor-"
"Thanks Iggy!" I said, man, Nudge really could talk.
"What was that?" Jace asked, stunned.
Cue hysterical laughter from all but Clary and Jace.
Gazzy decided to answer in between fits of laughter "That," choking laughter, "was," more choking laughter, "what we call," hysterical choking laughter, "Nudge!"
It took a good twenty minutes for us to calm down, Nudge with a cute, crooked smile, plastered on her face.
"No, seriously, though," Iggy said, "why did Ella, Jace, and Clary want you to stay behind?"
We all looked at each other. Angel, I realized. She probably knows exactly what's going on.
Yes, I do! Angel thought to me, I don't understand some things, but I get it as a whole.
Explain what you know, I wanted to know exactly what she knows.
I know about Shadowhunters and runes, but I don't understand what they are.
Thanks, sweetie, I was kind of relieved that she didn't know a lot about it.
"Um...well," I was trying really hard to come up with a lie that most of them would believe.
"I wanted to talk to them about school," mom improvised brilliantly, "I wondered if, maybe you guys would like to get enrolled in school, but Max and Fang, being Max and Fang, refused."
"Aw!" Nudge muttered, "I loved going to school."
Mom glanced at her watch and did a double-take, "Sorry guys, I gotta run. The office wanted me at two-thirty and it's already two-twenty-five. Be good, love you all! Bye!" and she ran out the front door.
