Chapter 10

Gazzy's POV

I ran to my room, which was at the first floor. This has turn up good at the end, I think. At least Max now hated Dylan.

I began to pack everything I could and needed. Cloth, personal stuff, and explosive stuff were being thrown into my backpack. Don't tell Max the last one.

For the first time in moths, I felt normal. As normal, as an Avian- human hybrid can feel. We were on the run again, Max was the leader, and I was planning a great new bomb. What else could I ask for, besides finding Fang?

That still was bothering me. As mature as I may be right now, still there were moments when I felt insecure. The question what if clouded my mind every now and then. What if I hadn't intervened with my new power? What if Fang had stayed? What if we don't find him? What if we do?

My powers have been growing by the minute. Controlling something without having eye contact with it is hard. Still I've managed. I know it means that I saw a little bit of that. Yeah, I'm still not that mature to say the S word. But hey, I didn't watch everything, just the first part. Remember I learned everything I know on television and there can't be anything worse than what they show at night, and as fast as I took full control I didn't have to watch it. Oh God I'm rambling like Nudge now.

Everyone must be wondering why I did what I did. Well first, I saw how Dylan was wining Max over and how that was breaking the Flock and Fang. So I decided to fix it. In every movie, you already now were I learned everything, making… that brings people together. I didn't know Fang would leave right after that, even though they don't remember what they did. Well even though they don't remember what they did, that should have made a special bond. Don't blame me; blame Nudge's chick flicks.

I was packing the last stuff when something began to bother me. I tried to shake it off but the feeling was getting stronger. I may not see the future like Angel, but still I can feel when something bad is going to happen. The last time I had this feeling Fang left. I remember it began like two days before Total's wedding, which by the way is staying with Valencia Martinez.

I remember that when that feeling hit me for the first time I ignored it, but it got stronger. That's why I did what I did. I knew that if something bad was going to happen it was because of Dylan. So I did what I could to prevent Dylan from winning. How could I have known the feeling wasn't because of Dylan?

I've been learning how to control my powers and now the feelings were closer to the event. Like when Max told us she was going to be with Dylan, I had this exact same feeling a day before she told us. So if I'm feeling it know, what's causing it must not be a day away.

I continue packing but the feeling didn't go away. On the contrary, it got stronger. I finished and ran towards the living room to wait for the others. The feeling was getting stronger by the minute and I was beginning to feel dizzy because of it. Something really bad is going to happen; it has never been this strong before.

I just sometimes wish I could be more useful.

Max's POV

I finished packing not paying attention to what I put in the backpack, because there were other things in my mind right now. Things were happening too fast. What have really been months felt like years now.

The conversation I had with the Flock had plagued me with questions. The insinuation Angel did about Dylan was eating me alive. I wanted to ask Angel what have Dylan done while I wasn't myself.

I closed my backpack and went to Angel's room. I opened the door slowly because I didn't want to startle her. She was packing. That wasn't what I pay attention to. What really caught my eyes was the little tear that was lingering on her cheek.

"Angel?" I whispered.

She turned around slowly not meeting my eyes.

She had grown up so much in the past few months. The thing I didn't like was that her eyes were colder and the sweet innocence that I use to love so much had disappeared. In her place was a calculating and broken girl.

I wanted to cry and ask what happened, but I decided to ask something different.

"How are you?" I really didn't want to know, I'm a coward. I ask her this because I didn't want to hear the truth. Most of the time people ask you how you are just to fill up a conversation, not because they really want to know.

"What do you really want to ask me?" I forgot that even if I was blocking her mind reading abilities, she still was a very perceptive girl.

"What Dylan did to you." I answered.

Her face paled and she diverted her eyes. I wanted to scream.

Whatever Dylan did to her or to the flock was my fault. I was supposed to protect them. At the end, how could I save the world if I can't even protect the people I love?

"Did he do the same to the others?"

She was silent for a moment, when I was sure she wasn't going to say anything else she answered.

"No, he did other things. For every one of us he did what he thought would hurt the most." Angel whispered. Her voice cracked at the end.

"What did he do to you and the rest of the flock?" I wanted to know what I let happen.

"What does it matter? What is done is done. There's nothing that you can do now to stop it." She was pleading for me to stop, but I couldn't. I needed to now what happen. I wanted to take responsibility for my actions.

"Angel, I know I haven't been myself for a long time but I want to be here for you now. I can see how much you and the Flock are suffering. I need to know what happened, so we can fix it together," She finally meet my eyes.

For the first time I saw hope in her little eyes. She was about to give in; she opened her mouth as if she was bout to talk when something changed again. She closed her mouth and decided against what ever she was about to say.

She walked toward her backpack, she pick it up, and directed herself toward the door.

"The others are waiting for us down stairs." With that said, she left.

I was stunned. What changed her mind so fast? By every minute that passed my mind imagined the worst. What could be so bad that she was still refusing to tell me?

I followed her downstairs. Everyone was already there waiting for me. I was worried for everyone on my Flock, but the one I was most worried about was Angel. I wanted to know, no I needed to know what happened to Angel, but right now that conversation was over.

"Are we ready to go?" I asked to everyone.

"Yes!" The Flock answered all at the same time. This was the first time that I really looked at them in months.

Iggy's easy going face was replaced by an angry and older one. Nudge had grown up a lot but was sad all the time now. Gazzy wasn't childish anymore. When I looked at angel my heart crushed. She was hard, calculating, and distant. None of us was a child anymore. Not that we got the chance before, but now the whole innocence was gone.

I wanted to scream and cry. I wanted to erase every instant of my life that happen since the moment I meet Dyaln.

"Let's go." I said harshly. I didn't intent to say it like that but I was so angry with my self right now.

In that moment the front door burst open revealing a very angry Dylan.

"You aren't going anywhere."


REVIEW? EVEN IF I KNOW I DON'T DESERVE IT FOR MAKING YOU WAIT SO MUCH FOR THIS
