The next day, Sakka and I decided to take an early morning fly. I honestly didn't care about anything else. Honestly, even though I had no idea what she looked like, Sakka....well, I sorta, kinda....liked her. Even though I've only known her for a couple hours, she was really sweet, and I liked her. More than a friend....if you get my drift here.

"The breeze is nice. Good wing breezes." Sakka said. I nodded. It was. "Lets land and take in the breeze from the ground." I flew down, and tucked my wings back into the slits. Sakka helped me sit down and she sat beside me, hugging my waist.

"You know, if I could see, this would probably be a perfect sight." I told her. She laughed. The butterflies fluttered around in my stomach and my heart beat twice as fast. I could feel my face turning red.

"It is. I'll tell you that much." she said. I bit my lower lip and stared into the darkness. My shoulder began to fuzz, but I ignored it. If I moved, Sakka would think I didn't like her where she was, when I really did.

"Sakka...." I began.

"Yeah?"

"I know I've only known you for maybe, not even a day, but I think your really great. You seem sweet and I think your the one I want to-" I was cut off by Sakka's lips trapping mine. I couldn't believe the sensation of it all, just so sudden, and so.......relaxing. She broke off from me and giggled. I blushed.

"I have the same feeling...." she said softly. I smiled at her. I slung my arm around her shoulders and pulled her close to me. I kissed the top of her head, she rested her head on my not injured shoulder and hugged my waist. I ran my fingers through her hair, finding out that she had long hair.

"Iggy, I think we should be getting home."

"Alright, we can go."

"No, I mean....home. Where you live." I was kinda suprised.

"Heh, I don't think that's a real good idea, Sakka....."

"Iggy, I know we're gonna marry eachother......" she said suddenly.

"H-h-how?!" I asked.

"My mom can, um, see the future...." she said. Oh wow!! That was kinda cool!!

"Seriously!?" I asked her.

"Yup..." she sounded kinda depressed.

"What's wrong?" I asked her. I heard her suck in a sob.

"I just don't think its safe." she said. I looked at her with a sad confused look. "Its not that I don't like being with you, Iggy, its just that with the Erasers around, I don't want them to get you."

"They're after me and the others all the time."

"Yes, but they're after me more importantly."

"Why's that?"

"Because they want the key." I was shocked. After 14 years of School and Jeb and Max, I haven't ever heard about any stupid key.

"What key?"

"The key to the Ride. It's a key that can, go back in time, and forward time, and it has powers to revive or kill or, do whatever. Erasers can't get their hands on it. They can duplicate it and this whole place can outburst in a huge war."

"How do they know you have the key?" I couldn't see her face, but it took her the looooongest time to reply back to my question.

"Because it's implanted under my skin." she said. Another shocking moment! Need to record these. I know Max had a microchip implanted in her arm, but her mom-Dr. Martinez-removed it. A menacing laugh echoed across the hills. Eraser. I was glomped from the side into the dirt and rocks.

"Sorry Iggy. He was heading straight for you." Sakka's voice apologized. Why hadn't I felt him coming. Were the Erasers FLYING now!?!

"Man down, Sakka?" the voice laughed. I hadn't heard it before. Newcomer?

"Shut up, Frair!" she yelled. Frair....Nope, doesn't ring a bell. Haha. Inside joke. Sakka has a bell around her neck. (Found that out earlier this morning when she got up) Doesn't ring a bell.

A furious scream came from my direction, and slams and yelps and kicks were being pillared.

"Iggy! Get out of here!" I was almost tempted to, but I didn't. And I wasn't. Not without Sakka. I darted forward into the presumed direction of the Eraser, and jumped up, smashing in his head. I wasn't done there. I came back kicking him in the back, and shoving his face in the dirt.

Sakka grabbed my hand and pulled me off. I felt light, so she must've been flying.

"I'll get you next time Sakka Kurai!" the Eraser shouted. No you weren't. Not while I'm alive.
