Iggy took a breath and made his choice. He listened very carefully, waiting for the opportunity to strike. He swung and his knuckles made contact with metal. He winced in pain, but swung again. Suddenly he could see. A very worn out looking Remy was projecting to him. He avoided hitting the flyboy's hostage and human shield. The rest of the flock ran forward and worked on getting Remy to safety. She looked… weak and pale. Max gave a final yank on her body, and audible gasp of pain belted from Remy as Max tugged her wings. That was it though, and she was free of the flyboy's capture.
"EVERYONE, GET BACK"! Iggy shouted and pulled a bomb from his pocket. He heard the flock running and trying to transport Remy away from the soon to be bomb sight. He did a quick up and away and dropped the package onto the flyboy's head. Momentarily, a loud BOOM rang out through the nightly woods.
Remy- I watched as every flock member stares at me in disgust and or pity. "You betrayed us"! Gazzy cried. I turn away from him. The Gasman was the little brother I had always wanted but would never have. I swallowed heavily. I knew it would take one to two weeks for my wings to heal and I don't have that time at all. Fang looks at me darkly. "Her expiration dates right around the corner, let's leave her". The rest of the flock nods and does an up and away. All for except Iggy…
He stepped in my path. His eyes were leveled with mine, and his hands trembled. "You traitor"! I don't say anything as he leans down to my level. His wings are out and arched in a particular frightening way. "You said you loved me, but you betrayed us all. You tried to get us killed. For that, none of us will forgive you". I hang my head and smile crazily. I really am damned to hell aren't I, Ig? I ask while hot tears slide down my face. He reaches out and cups my chin. His delicate fingers search my face and touch the tear path. "You're crying"… Then the guy who I thought hates my guts, put his own lips to mine.
After a heart pounding moment, he yanks away. He leaves me breathless and my head spinning. "At least I got to kiss you… Before you died" He says and then with a dramatic swoosh of his wings, he leaps up and then… He's gone. The pain then flows through my body in rapid pulses. I tilt my head as grey spots dance really nastily in front of me. Well… I think I should sleep now! Then I shut my eyes and I am out cold…
When I wake up, all I see is WHITE. God, am I… dead? I ask aloud. A voice chuckles and goose bumps go down my arms. "No my dear Remy, you're back home"… That freaky horror music plays mentally as I turn around. A woman with dark hair pulled back in a bun with brown eyes and a white lab coat walks in. She's all around beautiful, all around the woman I most trusted, all around… my mother…
Well, Lorelei isn't really my mom. She's the one who scientifically engineered me. Yes our appearances are very similar; we are pretty much exact opposites. Except for our fondness in betrayal… Oh that was a particularly nice stab of ice in my gut! Just thinking about the pain I caused my almost friends make my flesh crawl…
Lorelei Emmons walked up to me in her cool, self-assured way. She leaned over and gave me a glass kiss on the cheek. Then pulls back fast, after she realizes how dirty I am. I sigh and look at her. "You're probably wondering how we found you". Lorelei begins. I sigh obnoxiously. Well, I'm guessing that you most likely have some stupid chip thing inserted in me, you tracked it, I was unconscious with broken wings and you kidnapped me? I say dully as I do this, I interest myself in a hangnail on my finger.
"Do not interrupt"! My snow queen mom says and slaps me across the face. I shoot her a death glare. Umm ow! I snap. She regains composure. "Alright Remy, let's get you cleaned up. You look absolutely revolting". She pulls me up by the shoulder and leads me from my containment room.
That's the end of chapter 2! There's only going to be like 1 or 2 more chapters so I hope you enjoy it while it lasts!
