"Iggy, why are you so lazy? You never do anything! I know that I'm the designated leader, but that doesn't mean that you get to chill on the sidelines doing absolutely nothing!" Max snapped.

Oh great, this again. Iggy thought to himself. Ever since Fang had left, Max had been a total wreck. The occasional times she did manage to pull herself out of her river of tears, she turned into a raging wildebeest of torment and torture. Unfortunately for Iggy, Max's wrath sprung out once again from her coils of fury.

"Don't just sit there! I know you can hear me! You're only blind, not deaf!" Max belts out into Iggy's earlobes, unaware of the feelings Iggy had built up inside him.

This is he final straw, Iggy decided. I can't take it anymore!

"Max that's it! I can't deal with you any longer! Fang left, and I realize that this is upsetting you, it struck all of us, hard. But that doesn't make it alright for you to go around yelling at us just to make up for your lack of squabbling with Fang!" Iggy snapped.

"But Fang wasn't the only one that left me; Dylan left too! And-"

Not wanting to hear her response, Iggy stormed out of the room, slamming the door so hard his genetically enhanced strength nearly tore the door off of it's hinges. With that final blow, Iggy jumped out the living room window, and took off up into the gray, clouded sky.
