I do not own MR.

*Max POV*

So Fang and I went out for pizza after Freakazoid's well, um, freak out, and when we got back the house was surprisingly quiet. There was a note from my mom and Jeb saying that they took Nudge, Gazzy, and Angel out for some shopping and fun. I called throughout the house for Iggy but got no answer. I had expected him to be back from comforting her by now.

"Did Iggy tell you he was going to do anything today?" Fang just looked at me and shook his head. You are so interesting. I mused sarcastically in my head. Iggy knows that he needs to tell me when he goes somewhere. If he isn't back in 5 minutes I'm going to start freaking out.

*Five minutes later*

"Oh my god. What if he got taken? What if Ciel took him? Holy fried shit on a stick Ciel that bitch killed Iggy!" I was freaking out. I had no idea where he was and when my mom got back she informed me that he was still gone when she left. He just had to go chasing after Ciel. Either crazy chicks cry for horrendous periods of time or she killed Iggy. He is probably back at the School waiting to get exterminated….

"You guys, we are going to the School to get Iggy and we are going now." Everyone jumped from their places around the living room at my sudden outburst. I was determined. No one was going to stop me.

"Oh my god! Iggy is at the School?! Jeb you have to do something I mean what if they kill him or torture him or put him in a cage surrounded by pokey electrical sticks that he can't see and he—" This time my mom stopped Nudge.

"Now, we aren't going to freak out. Iggy is probably fine and Nudge, I don't want you going around with those crazy ideas in your head. You are going to make chaos erupt and that isn't what we need to do right now." Always the level-headed one. But she did forget something.

"So what do you suggest we do? Sit around while our best friend/brother/fellow winged human can possibly be getting tortured or worse, killed?"

"Yes, Max. I want everyone to stay here. Iggy and Ciel will probably be back tomorrow at the latest. Now if they aren't by the day after tomorrow then you can send out a search party. Agreed?" I looked around at the faces of the Flock. Fang looked... like Fang. Nudge looked ridiculously worried and on the verge of tears. Gazzy looked just a little bit fidgety. And Angel was smiling. Well, no one was jumping from their skins to go find them so…

"Ok, fine. We will wait. But if they don't come back and we find out that they are dead, I'm blaming you."

"I'm perfectly alright with that since I know they will be fine. Now, who wants dinner?" Everyone's faces lighted up at the aspect of food. While we all crowded around the table to eat our pork chops I couldn't help but have a very unsettled feeling. Fang gave me a questioning gaze across the bowl of dinner rolls and I just averted my eyes to my plate in response. What if they are both in grave danger? Oh help me sweet Mary, I just thought-cared about the freak. Shoot me now.

*Jeb POV*

I didn't say anything while Valencia and Max argued about whether they should go or not. I knew that the School had probably hunted down Ciel and found Iggy with her. I have faith in Ciel to be able to get out on her own but I can't help and be worried. I know that they had been working on some new fighters to replace the Erasers. These new and improved models would be able to annihilate Ciel. I just hope she knows more than we think she does.
