Chapter 2: Knowing
MPOV
I tightened the cloth around my elbow, slowing the flow of blood to the cuts on my arm. I rinsed it off in he stream rushing beneath my feet, turned to look at the motionless Eraser bodies against the trees, then leapt into the air.
It was a foggy day, but the heat of the sun shown through the clouds. I looked up ahead and saw a dark shadow in the clouds above me. Fang.
I broke through the layer and met up with him. "Hey"
"Hey. What happened to your arm?"
"Oh. Bit by a dog. What about you?"
"I wasn't followed"
"Really that's weird…"
The clouds broke apart and we could see a small neighborhood, below. Fang and I swooped down to get a better look. We flew for about another hour before we saw what we wanted. Next to one of the houses was a girl and her mom, waving up at us.
As soon as I landed, I was swarmed by the two warm bodies. "Max! Im so glad to see you!" Ella was practically jumping up and down.
I looked over at my mom who stood there with a large smile on her face. "We heard on the radio, 'six unidentified objects were spotted in the sky heading towards central Arizonza.' We kind of figured…" So much for a Surprise!
I looked over at Fang, then up behind him where two more figures were heading our way. Angel and Nudge.
"FANG! ANGEL! NUDGE!!!!"
"ELLA!!!!!"
I turned around and saw Ella and Nudge bouncing up and down in each others arms. I looked over at Fang, "So that's where she gets it from…" I saw his eyes rolling behind his hair.
"Hey Max, can I talk to you for a second?" I saw Angel looking u at me.
"Sure honey, whats wrong?"
"Well, my way over here I saw Gazzy and Iggy and I was heading over to meet them when I saw Iggy fall from the sky! I went over to help but saw Gazzy being attacked by Erasers and Iggy was lying on the ground…"
Oh My God!! "Do you know where they were headed?"
"Yeah… it was like some place in the desert. Somewhere in Arizona but im not sure where."
________________________________________________________________________
We were all packed and ready to head out. Laptop in hand, bag on his back, Fang hovered in the air outside of the house.
Angel looked at me and I gave her a reassuring smile. Don't worry Max, Iggy and Gazzy will be ok. She turned and ran out the door.
"Um… Max? Can we talk?" I tuned around and saw Nudge, tears in her eyes. "Max I'm worried about Iggy. I really care about him and love him and I won't be able to survive without him because he's just so perfect for me and he's a really great guy an---" she started turning blue.
"NUDGE BREATH!!!"
"*cough cough* I'm fine. But like I was saying."
"Nudge I know how you feel. But im not sure if he's ok either. God I hope he is… I mean if those Erasers did anything to him…" I looked at her face and realized it wasn't helping. "Nudge, im sorry. Im sure he's ok."
Boy was I wrong…
