Hey guys,

A new chapter is here, I have some awesome pictures of not only Ally and Jake but of the whole flock for later on in the story so I can't wait till then so I can post them and show all of you! I'm really excited about where this story is going, I have basically all of it planned out so now all I have to do is write it out which may take a while cause of how many chapters there will most likely be but I will try and post more often!

'Mr Chu's Family Restaurant', stated the sign outside where we stood. We had flown to a small town in search of Gamma, the company I had grown up at. In the window of the restaurant was a notice of some sort but it didn't really matter what it said but in fact the logo printed upon it. There was the logo that had haunted me for years,

"That's it guys." I pointed at the logo and they gathered round to examine it.

"Are you sure?" Max asked me.

"Yeah, I'm positive."

The library wasn't far from Mr Chu's place so we walked swiftly up the street watching every person that went past us to make sure they were not a threat. It was a small grey stone building with many books and two computers that this town called a library but to me it seemed like a basement so my claustrophobia kicked in. Nudge sat down at the first computer and set out to find where the closest 'Gamma' corporation so we could get some info on where Jake was.

"He's…he's in San Francisco at the moment." Nudge said as she typed away at the computer, concentrating as hard as she could on the screen in front of her.

"I'm sorry but I can't find anymore at the moment, this computer is too old."

Nudge looked up at me sadly and my heart melted for the kid.

"You've done great Nudge! You've found him." I beamed at her and she smiled back glad to help. Well I guess we were off to San Francisco.

"Ow!" Nudge squealed as I once again flew into her. We were nearly in San Francisco and I was no where near used to flying in formation hence Nudge squealing whenever I bumped into her.

"Sorry Nudge." My voice was like a record player being mercilessly played over and over again whenever I flew a little too high. At first the flock thought it was funny but now they are just sick of it and so am I. Carefully tipping the feathers in my wings I flew down below the flock and a bit to the side so I wouldn't bump any of them anymore.

The lights of San Francisco shone brightly below us as we entered the city. Gamma was the biggest skyscraper in the city and one of the only. (AN: Sorry, I hate these too but I have never been to America let alone San Francisco so I'm sorry about the lack of knowledge of the city.)

A deserted park welcomed us in as we flew to the ground dead tired and collapsed in the nearest tree. It was an older styled playground surrounded by trees that we all were sleeping in. One tree each so snoring wasn't a problem though I won't name names…COUGHIGGYCOUGH

The park looked like it hadn't been used in months so it was one of the safest places, though no places were safe for us avian Americans with those bird catchers and giant cats around the place, not. I snuggled into the rough tree bark and fell into a fitful slumber filled with dreams of dread and disaster.

A large warm hand shook my shoulder forcefully but gently and a deep voice called to me through the dark.

"Ally, wake up. It's time to go." The voice told me.

"No Jakey, not yet. Me still seepy." I slurred as I drifted in and out of consciousness. The voice left me alone and left giving me peace. I hadn't realised what I had said till I heard two familiar voices talking quietly, one belonging to the voice that had tried to pull me from my sleep.

"She thought I was Jake, she sounded innocent like Ange so I left her to sleep." A sigh was heard from the other person before footsteps sounded coming closer to where I was.

"Come on Ally, its Max, time to get up. We will get Jake back, don't worry." Max's voice was gentle but firm which pulled me from my sleeping state, I stared at her before whispering a thanks and hopping out of my tree to go get breakfast from Iggy. I had called Fang Jake accidentally while I was disoriented, way to make things more awkward Ally, I scolded myself.

"Morning Iggy." I smiled as he handed me a few breakfast bars.

"Morning Ally, are we going to save your boyfriend today?" I chocked on the bite of bar I was eating before blushing and shaking my head frantically. In the background I could hear Max and Fang holding in laughter but not succeeding.

"Omg, Jake is your boyfriend? That is sooo sweet. Why didn't you tell us? What was your first date like? Is he a good kisser? I wish I had a boyfriend but-" I cut Nudge of right then and there completely astounded and shocked.

"Jake is NOT my boyfriend. We haven't kissed Nudge and Iggy I might just kill you." I basically yelled.

"Sure sure." Iggy muttered under his breath as I glared at him which was wasted on him. Nudge looked upset at this new information.

"Well I guess it's time to get going, U and A flock." Max announced. Our wings all whipped out as we jumped into the sweet spring morning air. In and out, up and down, one beat two beats. To help me concentrate I counted my breaths, wings beats and heart beats. The tallest building was the Gamma Corporation and that was where we were headed.

Landing silently a block away in the darkness of the alley we reviewed the plan of action. There was a balcony on the 3rd story that faced an alley, we would go in from there and find a computer in which we would find the room Jake was in then get him, kick some butt and miraculously escape. Pretty simple, right? Wrong.

We walked the distance always on our toes and ready to run if needed until we were standing below the balcony. I checked the building and found that no thoughts were coming from the room attached to the balcony so we used our wings to push us up and over the fence around the balcony.

Iggy worked his magic with the lock and we were in. It was silent other than a slight humming noise coming from the air conditioning which gave the whole place a chilly affect causing goose bumps to form on my arms. I flittered around the room and found that no computers were here so we continued out into the silent hallway in search of an empty room with a computer.

Looking through some of the windows in the different doors we could see cages, labs and scientists but so far we have not seen anyone and have made no noise. Finally we found an empty room with a computer. We entered waiting for an alarm but none came so we got Nudge to get on the computer. She closed her eyes touching the screen for about five seconds than typed in a password and was searching within a minute.

"Oh no." I ran over staring at the screen for about a millisecond before dropping my head and became overcome with the want to punch something.

"What's wrong?" Gazzy asked from a corner where he sat tracing the lines in the tiled floor.

My voice cracked, "Jake was shipped to another Gamma location about two hours ago." Everyone looked sympathetic but I was just angry, we were so close and it was useless.

"Let's go." I said sadly walking out of the room into the hallway. The flock followed silently until footsteps were heard coming down the hallway and were only just around the corner from where we were standing. I panicked before realising what we could do even though it would show the flock more than I wanted them to know.

Random Guard's POV

Walking the rounds was always so boring and the things that happened in this building were repulsive but I was paid not to notice and I needed the money for my family. I heard a door open and close just around the corner from the hallway I was in and decided I should check it out. Whoever it was sounded startled.

Turning around the corner I saw something I was not expecting…a young woman in her late twenties with long blonde hair stood with her back to me. A man about thirty stood next to the young woman and he had blonde hair just like the woman. She appeared to be telling off the five blonde haired children around her, all of the children were younger than ten and looked down guiltily at the ground as she reprimanded them.

"I told you to stay with me but you have to go running off into a building and up two flights of stairs. We don't know what building this is and we could get sued for trespassing. Never run away from me ever again. You are all grounded!"

"But Muuuuuum!" The children whined looking up from the ground.

"No buts, you are all grounded end of story. You need to listen to your mother." The man told the children as he grabbed his partner's hand.

I walked up behind them making them notice my presence.

"I'm sorry miss but you all aren't allowed up here. It's a restricted area." She looked tiredly at me.

"I am so sorry sir; my children went running off into the building. We will leave straight away." She shot a furtive glance at her children leading them to the door leading to the stairs and from there the exit.

"Make sure you keep them under control." My voice was gruff as I watched them leave before I started whistling and continued on my merry way.

So, did you like it? Was it worth the wait? I hope so. I will be focusing on this story and my twilight fan fiction so I should be able to update more frequently. This story will have a sequel and a threequel but the threequel will be nothing of what you expect. =) REVIEW!
