Hey.

Chapter 12!

I'm so excited.

Thanks for all the reviews, they make me so happy.

Okay. So we now have Emi and FJ (Thanks Rico for FJ)

Yaay!

Disclaimer. I'm not Jp. Surprised? ;)

On with the story :)

I looked round frantically, finding some way, any way, to free this girl.

Just then, there was a muffled boom from the other side of the building. Zack and Luke, I guessed.

They were noting like uncle Gazzy and uncle Iggy, but they were still interested in making things blow up. (I winced as I remembered the head coming off my very first barbie with wings.)(Okay, I was four)

Time for a little mind conversation.

Zack? What the hell is going on?

What do you mean, what the hell is going on?

Uh, the explosion. Duh?

Oh, that. We thought you were having a little trouble getting out so we caused a diversion.

Oh, God. You didn't harm anyone, did you? Meaning our parents.

Nah, it was just enough to panic them.

Great, i'm trying to find a way to get this girl out of a cage because- Hey! She has wings like us!

Up until then, I honestly hadn't realised. It was just her expression before, right now there was no way I was leaving here alone.

Hollie, you what? You have to get out now! And by the way, Fang's fine. The girls managed to get him out.

Good, but about this girl, do you have any ideas?

Yeah. Up and Away.

Not funny, Z.

I ended the mind conversation there.

I mean, Zack was clearly going to be no help.

I was almost crying, concentrating on the cage ike my life depended on it, and then, suddenly, the cage started to move.

I had no idea what the hell was happening, when I looked upwards and the cage followed my gaze, I realised it was me. Me, telekenetic? And pretty strong, too, because I was moving this cage, which probably weighed 90 kilos even without the girl.

The girl's eyes were wide and hopeful.

Me? I was still reeling over the whole telekenetic thing.

Honestly, it makes all those suckish years of having gills and not the (more) incredible powers of everyone else.

And it was a pretty useful gift.

Scratch that. Very useful. Was it wrong I was already planning pranks on the guys? Probably.

By this time, I was up in the sky with everyone staring at me. I gestured frantically that I had to land, and soon everyone was gathered around the cage.

Ellie's voice was gentle and soothing.

'What's you're name?'

'E-emi,' She stuttered. I got the impression she wasn't usually the type to stutter.

That was when I noticed Fang. 'Uncle Fang!' I screeched. Until I noticed his mouth in a grim line. What is this, lets throw Hollie under a bus day?

Right on cue, Luke rounded on me. 'Hollie, what were you thinking? And how come you've never told any one about you're...levitating before?'

I sighed. 'First, you're saying you wanted me to leave Emi? And second, don't you think I would've? I mean, its impossible I could have got them right this second, right?'

He backtracked. 'No, that's not what I meant. I just meant that when we got our powers, they mostly came weak and got stronger. How did you manage to lift a cage, not to mention another birdkid?'

'I've no idea. Speaking off witch, how do we plan to get said bird-kid out of said cage?'

He just looked at me helplessly, when another male voice came floating over. 'I think I know.'

He sounded cheeky and confident, and, get this, he had wings, again. Jeez, you'd think this was some kind of bird-kid convention. He was dangling a key in front of him.

'And she's telling the truth, you know', he added, winking at me. 'I saw her'.

My eyes widened. 'Elaborate?', I asked.

'That explosion ripped off the front bars of my cage. It was all messed up recently, since the origional place got flooded- that was you too, wasn't it?' I nodded. 'Anyway, so I flew out looking for an opening. I saw you'-He indicated me and Emi, 'And I saw the keys in the control room next door. I was about to give them to you, but then her cage just started- levitating. I thought you might still need the keys, still, so I brought them up.'

He grinned cockily. 'By the way, my name's FJ.'

I introduced eveyone else, while Zack freed Emi. They were talking now, seeming happy. I couldn't see Emi leaving him, at least.

And FJ wouldn't stop talking to me, but I wasn't listening to them. I was thinking. Now we'd got uncle Fang out, the security would be higher than ever, especially with Emi and FJ gone.

What the hell could we do next?

So, what d'you think?

Please R&R and tell me!

Oh, yeah, I almost forgot.
