On the way there, I talked with Nudge. It was mostly her, because she never shut up, but I really liked her. She was two years younger than me, and yet, we became very close. She liked fashion, which I couldn't care less about, but besides that, we rarely disagreed.

"Hey Snow, Nudge." Max nodded at us to join up with her and Fang. "Okay so on the off-chance that we get separated, we'll meet at Lake Mead, okay? And Snow can help us track down each other." She smiled at me.

I quickly nodded. "Yeah okay."

Nudge looked thoughtful. "How would we get separated? Like if we went through a cloud, or something? I've never flown through a cloud. Is it fun? It might be wet, and-"

I shoved my hand over her mouth. "How do I mute the Nudge Channel?" I moaned. Max laughed. "You can't."

I groaned loudly. Nudge smacked my arm off her mouth. "C'mon! I don't talk that much."

"Yes, you do," Max, Fang, and I said at the same time.

We all laughed, even Nudge and flew on, in relative silence. Suddenly, I gasped and felt myself falling. The world blacked out as I had a vision or something:

Angel was in the school. She was in a cage and she looked scared. In the cage next to her were failed experiments. Two little boys, messed up beyond the imagination. It was painful to look at. Angel tried to talk with them, but they didn't look like they could speak. Then two scientists came in, looking at Angel as though she was a dog at a dog show. She backed away in fear as they opened her cage and grabbed her, taking her to test her brain and get samples.

I felt myself being carried. I groaned and sat up a bit. Max carried me, and she looked both angry, and worried.

"Snow, I almost had a heart attack! What happened?!"

"Sorry Max, I felt a lot of pain, which made me fold up my wings, and as I fell I had a vision."

That made her curious. "About what?"

"Actually, I think I just saw the present. I saw Angel. At the School." I explained what happened in my vision to everyone.

Max breathed heavily. "She's okay. She's okay."

"She is okay, Max," piped in Nudge.

Fang nodded. She briefly smiled. "Yeah, for now at least. Who's hungry?"

"I am!" Nudge shouted immediately.

"Yeah, let's get something to eat," I agreed, and Max nodded. I jumped out of her arms and spread my wings.

"So, where to?" Fang asked Max quietly.

"Shut it, I'm thinking." She replied. We were in the middle of a ski place, a bunch of cabins everywhere. No restaurants or anything. People probably had to bring their own food…. Now there's a thought.

"Max, there's probably food in the cabins," I said.

Her face lit up. "You're right, Snow. Let's go check." So we landed quickly, folding in our warm wings against our cold backs. Max quietly slit open a window's lining with a pocketknife. Fang then jiggled the lock until it clicked open. Nudge and I then pulled the window up, and we were in. We went immediately to the kitchen, where the fridge was empty. Luckily, the cabinets were full of food.

"Yes!" Nudge exclaimed and opened a can of cold ravioli. I had not eaten enough times to be picky, so I grabbed something random and shoved it down my throat. The taste was unfamiliar…. Apples?

"Hey guys, what's this?" I asked, holding up my can for inspection.

"Applesauce," said Max. Nudge gave me a weird look. "You've never had applesauce before?" she asked in surprise.

I felt self-conscious. "No."

So after that, everyone just shut up and ate food. We were full after a few minutes. I wanted to save Angel but…. My stomach hurt. I had eaten too much.

"Let's take a short nap first," I suggested. Max and Fang nodded. Nudge was already conked out on the couch.

"...Snow...oh Snow I miss you...so much...come back to me Snow..."
