Chapter 16
Night POV
I knew Fire wasn't going to let me come with him. But how he was gonna leave me was the question. What Storm said was absolutely awful, but he was half right. Fire has been gone for 14 years, and the flock has been growing up, but if what Jeb said was true, we will live for about 300 more years because we grow and develop slowly.
Man, we are gonna be old, but at least we won't slow down our fighting until we are like 234 years old.
"Storm, do you really hate Fire that much?"
Mom asked. I realized that I was just staring into space, not doing anything. So I walked towards Hope, who was crying her eyes out. But then I stepped on something.
A note? Oh yeah, he placed this last night.
"Guys, I found this."
I decided not to tell them what happened, or where Fire was going. I knew that it was not going to end well. I glanced at Angel, and immediately blocked my mind. I opened the note up and started reading.
"I'm sorry it had to be this way, but and I planned this. I always knew that Fang and Max were my parents, and that Iggy was Hopes only parent left. Hope, I love you, and I always have, and it is the hardest thing I have ever had to do to leave you. You must stay with the flock, where I know you will be safe. Storm, I did not leave because of you, I left because the flock will be in danger if I don't. Mom, calm down and forgive Dad, I know what he did was unforgivable, but think about us, we don't want our parents to split up. Iggy, if you don't take good care of Hope I will kill you. Dad, don't do something that stupid again, I still love you though. The rest of you, take care, and we will definitely meet again."
We what I read, I didn't read the part that was to me. I don't know why, it just felt like I shouldn't tell. He wrote:
Night, you want to come after me, but you need to stay. I think you already know I'm going to New York, and that I left you again. But there is something I must do. I will keep leaving you notes in places where you can find them. Convince the flock to go to New York, and there will be another note where I know you will find it.
Fire.
He left me again, but I know I will find him. I acted mad and crumpled up the note, tore it, and left the pieces on the ground. But inside I was grinning. I missed him very much, I always have. Storm always took all his anger out on me. Ember had broken his heart, she left the flock because she wanted to be with a guy in another country, and he was HUMAN. He didn't have wings. I never fell in love, so my heart was never broken. But Storm would get mad, hit me sometimes. I didn't do anything about it, he was hurting inside, and screaming and hitting others was how he got rid of it. Usually all that was at me.
"Guys, why don't we head to New York?"
I suggested.
"Yes! A big city, with cars, and malls!"
Nudge, Rain, and Angel squealed.
"Sound like fun."
Iggy and Ash said, Ash's tail flicking.
"Sure, I heard they have a bomb museum."
Gazzy said.
Everyone else agreed, and we took off, I was listening to music on my cellphone, using my 'borrowed' headphones. I loved Ke$ha, and her music was cool. I loved Nightcore remixes even more. I know, 'night' core. It's ironic. I just drowned everything else out, and fly-danced to the music. I knew I looked really cute with my headphones that matched my hair, and eyes, and wings.
I can really pull off this emo look.
I knew that I could have boys staring at me, but I didn't want to fall in love, after what happened to Storm.
Poor Storm, his heart was severely broken. I hate Ember for what she did.
We all flew silently, I was grooving while flying when something splashed all over me. I looked up to see Ash, Iggy, and Gasman high 5 ing and laughing. My cloths and hair were soaked and my headphones were thankfully water proof. I pushed them down around my neck.
"Hey!"
I yelled, chasing after them. They scattered, and I caught Gazzy eventually. I turned invisible and snatched all his water balloons, they automatically disappeared with me, I flew behind Iggy and Ash, who were trying to find me and tree the water balloons on them.
"Ack!"
Ash screamed, jumping back. Iggy looked stunned. I laughed at them.
"That's what you get!"
I yelled flying away as fast as I could. I didn't look where I was going and I ran into Fang.
"Sorry."
I muttered looking at my toes. That's when I spotted him, he was standing under a tree, and had a rifle pointed at me. I shrieked and dove, twirling around bullets whizzed past me, but when I got close I saw a bomb in his hand.
Shoot!
I swooped back up, and saw the flock was looking at me strangely.
"What?"
Then I felt unbearable pain in my shoulder and right wing. I fell, and I knew I was losing blood fast. I saw the flock dive towards me, but they weren't fast enough, and I knew it too. My head was pounding, and my shoulder burned. I hit the ground, hard. I felt multiple of my bones break. The whole flock landed beside me.
"Fire..in….New York.. He.. Find… You.." Was all I managed to choke out. The world went black.
I felt my self in a cave. I looked around. There were torches hung on the walls. I yelled for the flock, but nobody came. I felt tears drip out of my eyes in the never ending tunnel. Finally, I came to an opening. I looked around. There were two forests, one that was dark, and had thorns in it, and one that had rose bushes, and pretty flowers all around it. I started towards the light forest, it felt like it was pulling me, I couldn't do anything, just walk in amazement. Suddenly a familiar figure stepped out of the light forest.
Pink?
