Max POV:

After three tries I had successfully started a fire, and sat back to think. I had missed Fang so much and now he's back, but is he going to stay? I can remember the day he came back so clearly as if it was yesterday. Actually it was two weeks ago, and I don't think it was on purpose either, which is saddening.

*Flashback*

I was soaring through the air heading to the cliffs, with the occasional tear leaking out. I missed Fang so much, if he thought he was protecting me he was wrong, he was hurting me beyond belief. Once I neared the cliff I landed and sat on the ledge near the mouth of the cave. By this point the tears had completely stopped and I was starring numbly out at the sunset. It had been exactly 2 months since he left, and I came here exactly a month ago too. My heart had frozen over, it felt like, even though I put on a brave face around the younger kids. I closed my eyes and screamed a pain filled scream, letting all my feelings out, some more tears had leaked out. When I reopened my eyes, after brushing the tears away, I saw a figure's outline, backlit by the sun to my left standing near the edge of the cliff. I didn't recognize who it was and quickly stood up and charged at him. Once I was close enough I executed a perfect round-house kick to his chest. He fell back over the cliffs with an oof, that seemed kinda familiar. I ignored it and turned around and walked back to the mouth of the cave and sat back down. I heard a loud flapping noise and thought it was the hawks returning after hunting or something, because I hadn't seen any yet.

All of a sudden Dylan was in my face and he yelled at me, "What did you do that for? You know I'm not the greatest flyer yet!"

I was shocked by him and my instincts automatically kicked in. Out of instinct I swung my left fist at him and hit his jaw. Sadly that madew his instincts kick in too, and he started throwing punches, kicking and blocking my attacks. I spun around to avoid one of his punches to my jaw, but was too slow and he lashed out a kick that hit me right between the wings. I let out a murderous pain filled scream, before falling on my face. I tilted my face up in time to see another figure come flying in. I spit out some blood as the figure came closer, but I couldn't make out details because they were backlit by the sun. The person skidded to a stop and saw Dylan bending over me a look of shock on his face.

"M-m-m-max I-I-I-I'm s-s-s-s-so sorry" Dylan stuttered out shocked at what he did.

I simply groaned, but the figure growled out, "Not yet, you are Dylan."

"Fang!" Dylan and I said shocked at the same time, me it came out as a muffled groan though.

"Ya, it's me, and there is no way in hell you're getting away with what you did to Max," Fang growled out in a way that I was shocked he could be so terrifying.

"Look who's talking, you're the one who emotionally tore Max to shreds," Dylan spat.

"Is that true Max?" he looked sad that he could of hurt me.

"Ya," I said quietly. Fang cursed under his breath.

"At least I didn't try to kill you like Dylan, which speaking of I have to now kill you for. The flock would agree, I'd even bet Iggy would help. So would Gazzy. Nudge definitely would too. So you're a tad out numbered. I'll give you some fairness though and kill you single handedly." Fang said ferociously. Fang ran toward Dylan and fighting broke out. After I saw that I promptly passed out.

I woke up flying in someone's arms, but I didn't open my eyes I just could feel the air whooshing by and strong arms wrapped around me. It was Fang. He was whispering softly to me, "Max you have to survive. I'm so sorry for leaving you, I never should of done it. I'm so stupid."

After hearing that I opened my eyes and whispered with a smile on my face, "Ya, you are stupid."

He looked shocked "How long have you been awake?"

"Long enough to hear you talking to me, and I agree with you, you are stupid," I said smiling.

"I am soooo sorry Max" Fang said with a look of remorse.

"Ya I heard that, I think you said it at least a hundred times," I joked.

"At least you didn't lose your sense of humor while I was gone," Fang said before hugging me closer to his chest, which hurt really bad. A moan escaped my lips. He quickly loosened his grip, just enough to make the pain go away, but still tight enough to hold on without dropping me. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to hurt you…again" He said remorsefully and whispered the last word under his breath.

"I'm still alive," I said simply.

"Barely, after what Dylan did," his voice now hinted with anger.

"Speaking of Dylan, what happened?" I asked curious.

"He's dead now," Fang said bluntly.

"Oh," I whispered.

"Did you…" He said trailing off, even though I knew he was asking if I fell in love with Dylan.

"No," I said and the conversation ended.

When we landed He carried me into the house and the first person we ran into was Iggy. He stopped when he realized it was Fang and I.

"Is that you Fang?" he asked warily.

"The one and only," Fang replied.

"You do know that I think you're an ass for what you did, right?" Iggy asked.

"Ya but I think I made up for it, by saving Max's life," Fang said his voce flat and emotionless.

"How? By leaving?" Iggy asked, his voice tinged with venom. Fang flinched at that.

"No, I saved her from Dylan, I'll explain later, but I think she needs to be taken care of first," he replied cooly.

"Nudge! Come here and help Max, please just do it don't ask why. And yes I know Fang is here, I have to talk with him, then the flock can talk with him" Iggy said before Nudge could started babbling, thank god for that. Iggy had also said under his breath 'if he's still in one piece' after the rest of what he said.

Fang walked into our living room, where the rest of the flock was, with Nudge following us. When everyone saw him they gasped. He laid me down on the couch, before following Iggy off into his room. I couldn't hear what happened after that, because Nudge started up her babbling.

"Ohmygodmaxwhathappened?areyouokay?whodidthis?…" Nudge left off because Gazzy put his hand over her mouth.

"Thank you Gazzy, and no it wasn't Fang. I'll explain if you go get the first aid box Nudge," I said resting my head on the armrest of the couch, lying on my back.

Nudge ran and grabbed the first aid box. Then while Nudge bandaged a gash on my cheek from my fall she asked, "So what happened?"

Everyone stared at me waiting for my answer, so I whispered, "It was Dylan, and Fang did save me." Everyone gasped when they heard that. I sat up and said "Nudge can we go to the bathroom, I need bandages around my torso." She helped me up and we hobbled over to the bathroom. There I took my t-shirt off and lifted my tank top up high enough so she could bandage where it was needed. She gasped when she saw the large bruise that I could feel covered my back.

"I'm going to kill him, for that" she said softly but ferociously.

"Too late, Fang already did," I stated. Again she gasped.

Once she finished, I yanked my tank top back down, and pulled my t-shirt back on. We walked out of the bathroom, somewhat more steady than when we first did. Fang and Iggy were sitting on the other couch, next to the one I was on before I went to the bathroom. After I sat down, I looked over at Fang and Iggy.

Iggy somehow must of felt my gaze on him and said "Fang explained, and we're cool now. Even though I still think he was an ass for leaving."

I rolled my eyes at them, and then gently lied down on the couch. Fang saw how I was and decided to explain. Everyone paid rapt attention to what he said. Everyone's, except Fang's, Iggy's and my face, was that of pure shock.

I asked a question that was nagging at me, "Fang what did you do with the body?"

"Even though he didn't deserve it, I kinda gave him a proper burial, I piled stones over his body, in a ceremonial fashion," Fang stated.

"Oh," I said softly, before my eyelids slowly began to drift close.

"You need to sleep," Angel said. Both Fang and Iggy got up at the same time to help me to my room.

Iggy must of heard Fang get up, and shot him a look that told Fang no matter what he was getting me, then Iggy said, "I'm getting her, it's my job to take care of those who hurt her, because I'm an older brother to her."

I tried to protest, and say I could take care of myself but Iggy decided then to scoop me up into his arms. Also I didn't have enough energy too.

Fang tried to take me, while saying, "Well I need to fix my mistakes."

It felt like they started a tug-of-war over me. Iggy would pull, then Fang would. Iggy. Fang. Iggy. Fang. Iggy.

I mustered up enough energy to shout, "Guys! Stop it! I am not a piece of rope you play tug of war with! Iggy just take me to my room, and Fang you can open the door, because I don't think Iggy will be able to while carrying me."

They were shocked at my out burst, but both muttered apologies. Iggy did as he was told. Once we got to my room Fang opened my purple door. Inside the carpet was a plush fluffy white. My bed was still messed up from this morning. You could see my black sheets and my deep purple blankets. I would miss this house but we had to leave soon, because it was too well known, and easily accessible. Both of which were very bad things for us. Iggy lied me down on my bed, then both he and Fang left. They must of stayed outside my door, because I could hear them arguing.

"You left, so it was my job to protect everyone. I had to step up and become the big brother for Max, to protect her from Dylan," Iggy hissed

"Ya well now I'm back, and Dylan's gone," Fang hissed back.

"I have to thank you for that, that guy was an ass, just like you are for leaving." Iggy.

"I'm back now!" Fang.

"So, the damage you did can't be undone just by coming back, you are going to have to fix everything you did to everyone, one by one. You fixed the damage with me by killing Dylan, but not everyone will be so easy. To get on Gazzy's good side, I'd try giving him a book on bombs," at that Fang rolled his eyes, but Iggy continued on, "Nudge, hmmm, I'd try either some fashion magazines, or take her to the mall, because neither Max or I will take her. Angel, well a hug would probably work, but then again that would be hard for you the emotionless Fang. And finally Max well, you'll have to come up on that one on your own."

"I'm not emotionless!" Fang shouted.

"Whatever." Iggy.

Either Fang and Iggy walked off then or I dozed off, because that's all of the argument I remember.

I slept a dreamless sleep before waking up to Nudge bouncing up and down on my bed. I let out a groan, annoyed at being woken up. "What time is it?" I mumbled.

"It's eight." Nudge replied still jumping up and down on my bed. I had slept for 6 hours! She continued on before I could open my mouth, "Oh Max, Fang took me shopping. Even though I'm mad he left, its ok now. He apologized like a million times, while I shopped. I could tell he was making a sacrifice for me because I could see the pain on his face from shopping, but I'm glad he did because he made it up for leaving us, at least he did for me. The way he and Iggy are acting around each other it looks like they made up too even though there's some tension. Oh! While we were shopping he ran into a bookstore and got a book of bombs for Gazzy, which Gazzy loved, so he's cool with Fang too. Angel was simple all Fang had to do was give her a big bear hug, which Angel was so happy about I think she's still beaming over it and that happened like 5 hours ago." Nudge rambled.

I wanted to change the subject, so I accidentally made the mistake of asking "So what did you get?"

Nudge's face lit up with a smile and she held up like 20 bags, before saying "I got you some clothes, and everyone else in the flock some clothes too. Since I had Fang with I made him try on the clothes for him and Iggy, because they are about the same size and Angel and Gazzy I already knew what sizes to get them. And you I already knew your sizes too since I always pick out your clothes. Speaking of which you are going to try on your clothes but don't take off the tags until I decide if we want to keep them."

I groaned and tried to pull the blankets over my head to avoid the numerous pieces clothes I would be forced to try on. But I was too slow for Nudge and she dragged me out of bed. I was forced to try on at least twenty different outfits. After each outfit Nudge would squeal with delight at how I looked in it, I just simply groaned or kept my mouth shut. After about the fifth outfit, and fifth squeal, Angel barged into my room and gasped when she saw me.

"Max, you look beautiful!" Angel exclaimed. I was wearing a white strapless dress. It was belted with this deep blue belt and on the belt was this swirling silver design. I wore white wedges with it, because Nudge knows I'd die if I tried to walk in heels.

"What's all the shouting about?" Gazzy asked before walking into my room followed by Iggy and Fang. Fang and Gazzy's jaws dropped to the floor I swear.

It was completely silent so Iggy yelled "Angel send me a mental image of what's going on!" You could tell when he got it because he let out a whistle before his jaw dropped to the floor too.

"Okay out I'm going to change back into my sweats and t-shirt," I shouted.

The guys grumbled and walked out of my room followed by Angel. Before the guys left I yelled "Perves!" Angel laughed while she walked out the door. I turned around and saw Nudge bent over laughing. I rolled my eyes at her and then changed back into my comfy clothes. After that I shuffled to the kitchen to get some food because I was starving. The rest of the flock, except Iggy, wanted to watch movies together so we did that until it was time to go to bed.

*end of flash back*

I reopened my eyes to see Fang and Andrew staring at me. "What?" I snapped.

They both looked taken aback and stuttered "N-n-n-n-nothing."

I rolled my eyes and looked over and saw Nudge and Angel talking, Gazzy poking at the fire with a stick. I knew I should of stopped him, but whatever. My gaze then drifted to the stranger, Andrew. I looked him over and decided should need be I could easily take him out. I turned my attention to what little of the sun was still protruding over the horizon. If only we could build a house here, it would be perfect, it's isolated and in the middle of nowhere. All of a sudden I heard a scream.

Iggy's Pov:

"Where are we going?" I decided to ask after a while. We were holding hands so she could lead me in the right direction. Her hand was soft and warm. Her body lurched forward, and she must of fell to the ground and screamed. I had let go of her hand, so I had to blindly look for her body. I found it and picked her up. I could still hear her heartbeat, so I turned around and started to walk toward the flock's voices. I could hear Fang's voice getting closer so I assumed he was walking toward me. Then I heard his footsteps pounding toward me.

"What happened?" he asked. I hear another set of footsteps approaching, I didn't recognize them so I guessed it was Andrew. Andrew then asked the same question Fang did.

"She must of tripped, otherwise I don't know, because we were walking and all of a sudden she lurched forward and well screamed. I found her and started carrying her toward your voices." We continued walking back to the lake, there I set her down by the fire. As soon as I set her down she woke up, but Max wouldn't let her get up.

"No lie down, you've gone unconscious three times now," Max said sternly.

"No let me sit up," Belinda replied.

Belinda Pov:

Might as well blow their secrets now. "I have to say something," I said as I sat up.

Everyone stared at me curiously and after a while Andrew went ahead and asked, "What?"

I took a deep breath in and said, "I know all of you guys' secrets."

All of their eyes, except Angel's, looked like they were about to pop out of their head. Everyone, except Angel, shouted "What?"

Max noticed Angel and glared at her while growling, "You knew about this and didn't tell us?"

"Duh, I read her mind for a split second before she closed me off like you guys do, how was I supposed to tell you without clueing her into know how much I'd seen." she retorted.

I laughed and said "Andrew would you like to know their secret? It's quite interesting. I mean I bet you've never heard of them despite your secret."

"Shut up!" he shouted startling me, and everyone else.

"Take your choice, a) tell each other your secrets and I'll tell you mine, or b) I tell everyone all of our secrets." I hear several a)s and like two b)s. "Fine, then Max you tell your group's secret if you lie, I'll tell Andrew the truth." I said.

Max stood up and rolled her shoulders back, her two wings unfurled and they were beautiful. They were light brown streaked with white. She pulled them back in and sat back down. "You can call us the flock, and I'm the leader." Max simply said.

Andrew looked shocked but said, "Big deal my secret is bigger." He smiled a wide smile and made his fangs appear the flock all gasped.

"Angel, mental feed now!" Iggy said feeling left out, but gasped when he saw the fangs.

I smiled and said, "I feel like we're at the circus, we've got the bird kids, and the vampire. But my secret will blow all of your guys' secrets out of the water." I decided to shape shift again into a flying squirrel. I got a satisfying scream out of Max, but Fang, his mouth gaped open like everyone else's. I laughed and said "What, you've never seen a flying squirrel before?"

"It was you!" Max said dumbfounded.

"You're a shape shifter?" Andrew asked incredulous.

"Pfffft god no, shape shifters wish they were me," I said before changing into a human. I muttered under my breath and a ball of fire appeared in my hand. "I'm a witch," I said with a big dopey smile.
