A New Power
Max POV
"Why can't we just-" said Nudge.
"No, Nudge."
"But I'm hungr-"
"No, Nudge."
"Please? There's a McDonalds just down-"
"Dammit,
NO!" I yelled. "We just ate back at the hotel. We've been
flying for barely 2 hours!"
Nudge pouted. She opened her mouth,
and her lips moved, but I heard a high-pitched horrible
screeching noise. Y'know, like when your principal is talking on
the mic, and the speakers start screaming and you cover your ears?
Gee, I sound like Nudge.
"FU – DAMN, NUDGE, CLOSE YOUR MOUTH!" I shouted over the din. She said something again, but I had my hands still over my ears. I took them off, and was once again assaulted with that noise.
Nudge had been screeching for minutes on end, and my head hurt. BADLY. All I could do was flap, keep my hands on my ears, and not fall. If I wasn't flying, I'd probably be rolling around on the ground clutching my head.
Shiz, that girl can scream. I tried to yell again, to get her to stop screaming. "NUDGE!" I screamed, "Shut the f--- up!"
Finally, finally, FINALLY, the screeching ceased.
"Max," Nudge said. "I think -" she paused and smiled. Boy, I love that smile. "I have a new power."
Fang POV
During the screaming, I wanted to fly over there and slap a wing over Nudge's mouth.
Weird thing was, I was so surprised and my ears hurt so much that I couldn't move. What the heck?
Max started screaming at her. Nudge apparently heard something very disturbing, because she finally shut up. I took my hands off my ears. Max did, too.
"Max,"
Nudge said, "I think I have a new powers."
Max's jaw dropped
and her eyes widened. "Whoa."
Nudge nodded. "Yeah," she said. "I think I even saw it coming."
"What?" Max snapped. "When? How did you know?"
"Well, remember that one time Marian Janessen showed us that lady who screamed and none of us could hear her, except Total, 'cause he's a dog?"
"Yeah," Max said.
"I could hear her. It didn't hurt, though," Nudge explained.
"But Janessen told us that it could blow people's eardrums or something," I interjected. "You didn't go deaf."
Nudge shook her head. "No, I didn't. Even at school, when the speakers were making that noise it never really bothered me."
Max, whom I had been watching the whole entire time, suddenly smiled her beautiful, angelic, perfect, -ahem- smile. "I've got it," she said. "A new and improved plan B."
We all huddled around, and Max started explaining. "Here's what we do," she whispered, with a big goofy grin plastered on her face.
A/N: Hahaha! I sort of left you guys hanging there, didn't I?
You know that part where Max thinks, 'Shiz'? Well, I was going to put 'Shit', but someone said that they thought the Flock cussed too much, so…
Max does keep it censored when she's cussing in her head, though. I hope you all like this chapter.
I'm going to keep the Niggy/Eggy poll open for another few days, so go vote! (It's on my profile). Right now, there are 3 votes for Niggy and 1 vote for Eggy.
I'm thinking of changing the name of the story, since the title doesn't really have anything to do with the storyline/plot, but then that might make it too hard for my precious readers and reviewers (*mwah* kisses!) to find the story. Tell me what you think!
I appreciate any constructive criticism, compliments, or ideas for scenes/stories. I am also about to post a new story for the Gallagher Girls (Girl or Girls?) series.
Catch you later,

(BTW, I'm not sure how to spell Janessen. Is it Janssen? TELL ME!!)
