Gazzy's POV

Well this just sucks! I'm at the School. In Hawaii. Where we were.

Ironic? I think not. I think they're just getting lazy on us.

On the bright side, there are two other avian-hybrids like me in the cages across from mine.

They look about Max and Fang's age. Now that I mention it, they kind of look like Max and Fang. Only… Max's is a boy… and Fang's a… girl?!?!

Woah. The girl woke up and I saw her eyes. They were black. And then they were gold. She started rocking her cage and woke up the boy. He touched her arm and her eyes went back to the black-ish color Fang's are. I decided to speak up.

"Uh… hi. I'm Gazzy. I kinda noticed that you're like me. A… well, a human-avian hybrid. Who are you? How long have you been hybrids? Sorry, my girlfrie-my close friend talks a lot and it must have rubbed off on me."

The girl looked at the boy and nodded and he started speaking. Wow, even more like Fang.

"Well, I always thought that my name was Alex, but apparently it's really Blake. This is Fallon, whose name actually used to be Abby. It's fine for all the talking you just hate the place. I do, too. We never knew it before, but apparently we've had wings all our lives. They wanted to see if reading anything about wings would trigger memories, but nothing did. So they had to put matters into their own hands. Mine are… well, it's hard to explain. One day I'll show ya. Fallon's are gold like her eyes were. Which we're still trying to figure out. She seems to get angry… or-or confused whenever they change. And then I touch her and she goes back to normal. But now you have to tell us about you. I normally wouldn't explain so much to a complete stranger, but considering the circumstances…."

Blake, that was his name, he explained everything. But how much should I tell him? Our lives were always confidential... but i guess I could trust them...

"My name is the Gasman, or Gazzy. Don't ask why, trust me, you don't wanna know. My wings are kind of brown. I'll show you one time. Whenever I can stretch 'em out. I'm nine and I am part of a flock. There's my blood-related sister, Angel, my sister/friend- Nudge, Iggy- my best friend, Fang, well, he's kinda like the dad I never had, but he's your age. And then there's our leader, Max. Maximum Ride. She's like my mom. Her and Fang I think are—" I was cut off by the girl, Fallon.

"Max. Maximum Ride? As in the Maximum Ride, herself?" I looked at her funny and Blake looked genuinely confused. They seemed to be having a secret conversation; one where she was telling how much of an idiot he was for not saying something. Sighing, she spoke up.

"Apparently we weren't supposed to find out, but honestly, they don't give us kids enough credit now a-days. There are books everywhere about you guys. Plus, we found papers with our names and information on them. To be blunt enough, Max is his sis, and Fang's my brother."

Wow, now that she mentions it, the looks and personalities are similar. Only, you can actually tell who wears the pants in their relationship.

"So… are you two like… together?" I asked. How funny would that be if Fallon and Blake were together and so were Fang and Max since they're all related… kind of weird, but still wicked cool.

Blake blushed a deep crimson and Fallon's lips formed a slim line on her face.

"What? Pshh—nooo! What would make you think a silly thing like that?" Laughing, I let it slide. But then I remembered something.

"I heard Ter Borcht…. The woman version, anyway, tell you guys that, well, you know. What are you gonna do?" Sighing, they looked at each other and Blake shook his head.

"Pray for a miracle. And if that doesn't happen… we gotta do what we gotta do. She's the only family I have left."

For the next few hours we were talking about our lives and families and how we could attempt to escape.

I was starting to finally dose off when a crash and blood curdling scream coming from the other side of our door.

I knew that scream.

They were here.

It was them.

Okay, guys, I didn't quit on you! It isn't that great, but I figured you all wanted to know more about Gazzy's situation. Next chapter will be about what happened during this with the flock. I wanted to post something for you guys, but it would've taken me longer to do both sides in one chapter. So I hope you're satisfied. Sorry, again. Oh, and I want at least... 5 reviews. I don't think this is that popular, so I'm not gonna push my luck. L8r g8rss
