Chapter 7:

MAX POV:

Holy crap. Crap. Crap. Crap.

"Max! Come on! We don't have time!"

My eyes were still widened in shock as I turned to lift off into the air.

I flapped my wings harder, and soon I had reached enough altitude to start flying horizontally.

Fang came up from above me, his body radiating anger.

"good job, Max. You released a monster." I looked up at Fang, giving him a real mean look, but on the inside, I was hurt. For some reason, that stung.

Then Fang flew off, and I figured it was just to bug me, but then realized what it was really for.

"Max? What is wrong?"

I looked at Sam, still too shocked to spit out my words. "You're, you're a…"

"An Eraser?"

"Ye-, yeah." I shook my head as if it would help me clear some thoughts.

"Max, can you hear me out? Listen to me. Don't worry, I'm not going to hurt you."

'If you tried to hurt me, I would rip your throat out, that's why you wouldn't hurt me" I reminded him, icicles were now dripping from my words.

He looked slightly taken aback. This was not the Max he had gone out with.

"Look, they…they sent me to Virginia. Took look watch after you. I was still young, and they wanted to test me out."

That was when I realized the difference between Sam and other Erasers. His wing had formed, without him forming into an Eraser.

He noticed me staring and answered the question floating in my head, the one I was not giving him the satisfaction to ask.

"It makes it easier to fly. Then, we can transform whenever we want."

I was so utterly disgusted I might of just puked right then and there. We can transform whenever we want.

"And when would that be? When you come across six avian hybrids?" I spat.

"Max! listen! I wasn't going to hurt you! Even if they wanted me too. I was all for it at first, but when I saw you…I couldn't of done it anyway."

Ew. The corny stuff. I might just actually puke now.

"Whose the girl?" I asked, glancing over at the petite girl who I hadn't realized was still with us until now.

"That's Ariana. She is an avian hybrid like you. You saved us just in the nick of time, Itex was going to exterminate her."

"Why were they going to exterminate her?"

Fang interrupted us then, well, more me than Sam. He ignored him.

"Max, the kids are tired. What do you say we rest for the night?" he shot a quick, death glare at Sam, and he ignored it.

"Yeah, ok, sure." I felt stupid not realizing this before Fang. I mean, I was the leader!

"Guys! Lets land in that huge tree over there and rest for the night! That good?"

The flock nodded enthusiastically.

We landed in the tree and Sam insisted on taking first watch.

"No, I will" I demanded.

"Max, really…" He was obviously trying to gain a place in the flock.

"Sam…shut up! I am the leader here, and I decide what goes on…and what doesn't. I still don't even know if I can trust you. I mean, you're a freaking Eraser, for petes sake!"

He was taken aback, but listened. He took Ariana and they crawled over to another branch. But before he did so, he leaned in and whispered in my ear. I could feel Fang tense beside me. Whatever I was going to hear in the next few seconds, Fang would too.

"She was made incase you were defeated trying to destroy Itex. She can save the world."

I gasped. Ok then, just when you think you've got the whole "saving the world" thing down, this comes along!
