Chapter 19

Everything that Fang loved was gone; Iggy, the Gasman, Nudge, and Total.

Max.

Max.

Max.

The only thing on that went through his mind was Max.

Marian was all lovey dovey with Fang. She kissed him and the only two people he had kissed before was Lissa and Max. Well, Marian was nice and helping him, but he took too long and they died. He blamed himself for everything that had occurred. Angel lied about him being the first to die and so did that Dr. G-H.

"Fang I am sorry about what just happened," Marian said in pain. Pain from lying to someone she was actually sent out to destroy.

He never responded he just want to tear everyone that tried to attack the flocks head off. The only thing he wanted was to watch everyone die, and he wanted everyone to be in misery, like he was. But he didn't want to become an evil person; he just wanted to beat the crap out of evil people.

"I don't care if you're coming or not to the School, but I am, to make Max proud of me…wherever she is," he started sobbing at the end.

Marian nodded and went back over to everyone else. They were sitting on the curb of the road, watching what just happened.

"So are we going yet?" James questioned.

"Yes, but we are not going to follow Angel's plan, instead we are going to help him kill Dr. Gunther-Hagen and everyone else that is in on this plan," she paused then looked at their expressions. "But you guys have to help me persuade him to go far away from Dr. Gunther-Hagen. I know we were created to kill, but we can be our own flock."

Everyone's mouths dropped open. Virginia opened her mouth and was about to say something, but closed it again. James looked at Marian with sadness and anger. The twins just acted as if they had heard nothing. They sat there talking to each other.

"We were created to have certain jobs. Our destiny is to destroy the opposing Flock and be the new leaders of the world, but instead you make kissy faces at that Fang kid and make up dumb solutions," James jumped up and grabbed her by the shoulders, nearly yelling at her.

"Everything that was supposed to happen never did. I overheard that Fang was supposed to be the first to die, but he didn't!" Marian exclaimed.

"You are wrong, he did die, but he was saved by Max. He had died but he was saved before it was officially too late. Do you get it now?" James's face was an inch away from hers. She looked into his eyes and saw that he had tears running down his dark skin.

"Are you okay," Marian asked softly whipping his tear away with her shirt sleeve.

"No, and I never will be," he pushed her away with such force that she fell flat on her back.

He sat back with everyone else and glared at Marian for minutes, but those minutes felt like hours. Fang was in the forest crying again and yelling. His voice made an echo from the woods. Marian searched for him and she found him on his knees. She felt horrible every minute of her short life. She hated that she was designed to kill and destroy, not love and help.

"So Fang," she sat down next to him and put her arm around his shoulders, "Are you still going to kill everyone that murdered the Flock and," Marian hated saying that girls name, "Max?"

He looked back at her then at the tree. "Yes. I know you're probably going to say that Angel was a part of everything too, but I don't care. I'll rip her pretty little face off her limbs if I have to," he snarled then started flying.

Marian followed him and then the rest of the flock joined. It was silent. Fang just wanted to fly and calm down, and Marian was just flying to make sure Fang didn't go to the School. If he went there he'd be screwed because they would capture him and make him watch Max's death.

"Fang," Marian said gently, "where are you expecting to go?"

"The School. I already told you I am going there. No matter what," Fang said in a soft whisper

Marian rolled her eyes. She had to think of a new lie when they reach the School so he wouldn't think she was a liar, who wanted to kill him. The worst thing is that when he sees Max again he might not be interested in her. He'll want to be all lovey dovey to Max and want to hug her and kiss her. Marian started to think about killing off Max before he got there. Perfect.

"Fang can I fly ahead of you to find a place to stop," she pleaded.

"Sure," he nodded and Marian smiled.

That night they were all sitting at the campfire Fang started. Marian was holding Fang's hand and he had his arm around her. He thought that Marian was cute and totally not an evil person. Her red hair made her stand out and the best part was that she was like him, 98% human and 2% avian.

"Okay guys time for bed. Since I am the oldest of you guys, and the most experienced, I will be the leader, for now at least. You will go by my rules and rule number one is you go to bed when I say you go to bed," Fang stood up and directed with Marian attached to his side. He wasn't very experienced at being a leader, unless you count the one time his old Flock split up. "Well anyways go to sleep as long as you stay in seeing distance. I'll be on the first night watch shift, then Marian will go after, and then James."

James's snickered then walked to one of the trees. He jumped up on one of the branches and fell asleep. The twins hid in the bushes, hiding from everyone so they could do only God knows what. Florida went next to James and they talked. About what? Well, Marian had no clue, probably about her. But everyone could be mad at her, she didn't care! Fang was something better than them. He was mysterious, demanding, and the most gorgeous human being.

Marian sat next to Fang again. He had his hands in fists. His hair covered his face, but by the looks of it he was crying. She could see tears dripping on the terrain floor he was sitting on. Being the bad guy sucks in these situations. Right now her choice was save Fang and feel the wrath of Angel or kill Fang and mourn his death everyday of her life to come…if there was any future at all.
