Sorry sorry sorry it took so long to update.

I have been really busy getting made up work and stuff.

So here's the next chapter

Max POV

The announcer came on stage a few minuets with an envelope in his hands.

"Now we have tallied the results and I have the winner in my hand" he said holding up the envelope.

"Now we all know that the winners of The Battle of the Bands get a record deal with Matchbook Records." He said the crowd screamed.

"Now your winner is…" someone did a drum roll while he opened the envelope.

What happened next went so fast but I felt like I was moving in slow motion. I heard the sound first. Then I felt it wiz past my ear. Then I saw the blood.

The announcer dropped to the ground a gapping bullet wound right between the eyes. Then there was chaos. People screamed. Erasers and flyboys swooped in from the sky. I did a check of my flock. Fang and I met eyes and with a small nod we snapped out our wings pushing people out of the way in the process. People gasped, screamed, fainted, and cried all at the same time.

"Show time." I said with a small smirk and shot up into the sky. I started throwing punches and kicks left and right. I was up against about four flyboys. I took them out easily and I did a quick check. Angel was making Erasers shoot Flyboys. Creepy. Nudge was up against two and winning. Iggy and Gazzy were throwing bombs left and right as tiny bits of charred Flyboy fell to the ground. Fang was standing in front of a Flyboy with his back to me. Then Flyboys started crowding around him about twelve.

"FANG! BEHIND YOU!" I screeched. But I was too late, a Flyboy pulled the trigger and a bullet was aimed right for fang right between his wings. I screamed. Then Fang turned and get this, he caught the bullet right in his hands. His eyes were complete black the white part and everything. He slowly opened his hand and the bullet was powder, he crushed it.

Then his face broke out into a grin, not the kind of grin I love, the kind that lights up my world. But a sick, sadistic grin. Fang leapt forward and punched a flyboy clear in the face. The head went flying off and the flyboy dropped like a stone. Fang started moving at inhumane speeds, even for an Avian American. The rest of flyboys and erasers, about fifty, backed of the rest of the flock and went after Fang. I quickly looked down and the beach had cleared out.

Fang shot down out of the crowd of Flyboys and Erasers. He landed on the sand and the Flyboys and Erasers shot after him they surrounded him. I was bout to go fly down and help him but he sprang into action again. He took out all the Flyboys and Erasers in about five seconds. There was one Eraser left Fang stared at him and got the sadistic grin again. Then the Erasers face contoured in pain. Fangs hand where at fist at his sides and the Eraser let out a tortured scream.

"Please, please I surrender! Please stop!" the Eraser pleaded.

"FANG!" I screamed. He just kept staring at the Eraser. What ever he was doing it was torturing the Eraser. I hate Erasers don't get me wrong, but I can't see any living thing mortal enemy or not have such agony in their eyes. The Eraser let out another wail of agony.

"FANG STOP IT! PLEASE!" I landed behind him and ran towards him.

"Fang stop it!" I pleased a sob breaking loose. The Eraser looked at me with agonized pleading eyes. The Eraser let out one last wail and then dropped to the floor blood running out his ears, nose, and eyes. I began to sob uncontrollably. I put my hand on Fangs shoulder. He turned and looked me in the eyes. Then he hit me. Clear in the face, let me tell you, that boy had gotten strong sense I last saw him. I swayed and everything stared getting hazy.

"MAX!" Fang shouted and then I hit the ground and everything went black.
