Yo guys. How is everyone? Ready for another update? Well, I hope so. Before I begin though, I have several things to say. On my last update, I noticed I had three hundred hits but only three reviews. This kinda made me upset. I mean, if you read and don't review how is that supposed to make me feel? I feel like you don't like my story. So, I really hope this chapter gets a lot more reviews than the last one. This is sort of a filler, so nothing much exciting happens. I will be making this story a lot more action packed in the next few chapters. Trust me, I have big things planned for this story. I'm telling you, you won't believe what I'm going to do. Just hold on okay. Alright, read 'Dark Blue' and 'Maximum Ride: Wings vs. Wands' by Madeline Cullen (a huge supporter, awesome author, and great reviewer) and 'NeoFlock' and 'Deadline' by Talon666 (another huge supporter, awesome author, and great reviewer). These are amazing stories. If they weren't I wouldn't be taking the time to mention them. Okay, read my Twilight story 'Solar Flare'. Trust me, if you love Twilight and this story you will love 'Solar Flare'. Okay, I've probably been talking a little too much. I seem to do that a lot. Well, I hope you enjoy this chapter. Remember, it's a filler so nothing much happens, but it is still really important. You'll see why later. Okay, here's Chapter 19 for all of you lovely people. Enjoy!

I woke up with a start. Where in the h-e-double hockey sticks was I? Nothing was familiar. My eyes flashed to the floor next to me. Fang's laptop was sitting on the ground. That's right. I was at Jeb's. Everything came rushing back to me. I took a deep breath, relief washing over me.

I pulled the laptop on my lap and logged into the blog. Hmm. I got hundreds of hits and only a couple of comments saying that I was lying and stuff like that. What part of 'this is not a hoax' did people not seem to get? I mean, really.

I was just about to get off when I saw that I had a new comment. I clicked on it and read.

Dancerbabe678: If you really are Fang's niece then what happened to the Flock?

Okay, so they wanted to know what happened to the Flock. I'd let them know. I typed up a new blog explaining what happened to everyone and what they were doing, trying not to give away any crucial details. Anyone could be reading this. And I mean anyone.

Soon, I was finished and decided to go get some breakfast. I was hungry. I looked over at Jewel and decided I'd make her something too. And Skye while I was at it. Annoying and mean as he was, I may need his help and that meant I couldn't let him starve.

I silently crawled out of bed and left the room. I walked down the hall, past the bathroom, and ended up in the living room.

Skye was asleep on the couch. He looked like a little kid when he was asleep. He looked sweet. I had to wrench myself away. If he woke up and saw me looking at him, he'd torment me forever.

I walked into the kitchen and was surprised to see Jeb at the table eating bacon and scrambled eggs. He didn't look too surprised to see me though. He pulled up a chair and motioned for me to sit down.

"Morning Melody." he said, pleasantly. "I thought you'd be hungry so I went ahead and made breakfast." He looked towards the doorway to the living room. "You can tell your friend Skye that you cooked it." He had a twinkle in his eye that I couldn't place.

"Uh…thanks." I said, uncomfortably. I didn't like the look Jeb was giving me. I pulled one of the other plates of food on the table towards me and began eating silently.

"So, uh… did you work on the blog yet?" Jeb asked, curiously. He had stopped giving me that look so I relaxed.

"Yeah." I said, swallowing a forkful of eggs. "Last night and this morning. I don't think anybody believes me though."

Jeb nodded. "After such a long silence it might be difficult for some people to believe it was all real. They probably dismissed it as some movie stunt that crashed and burned." He looked thoughtfully at his eggs and said, "They might eventually believe you."

He sounded ominous and I wondered if he knew something that he wasn't telling me. I didn't have long to ponder that though, because Jewel walked into the kitchen, tousle haired and rubbing her eyes.

"Morning Jewel." I said, pulling up a chair for her.

"Mmm." she mumbled sleepily. I pushed the plate of breakfast in front of her face and she took the fork in her hand, instinctively shoving food in her face, but probably unaware that she was doing it.

A minute or so later, I heard Skye pad into the kitchen quietly. He was stretching, his arms over his head, and I had to stifle a laugh at his bed head. He let out a loud yawn and plopped down in the chair next to Jewel. He looked suspiciously at the eggs on the plate in front of him.

I sighed. "They're safe. Don't worry." He prodded them with his fork and I shoved a bite in my mouth. "See I'm eating it and nothing's happening. Jewel and Jeb are fine too. Stop being paranoid."

He shot me a dirty look, but ate his breakfast anyway. I rolled my eyes and finished my own breakfast.

When everyone was finished, I turned to Jeb and said, "Well, I guess we'd better hit the skies then. Thanks for everything." I hopped up, but Jeb put his hand up, stopping me.

"You aren't going anywhere without a plan young lady." he told me. "You can't just run forever. You at least have to have some idea of where you're going."

What? "But… b… you… can't… you ca-" I stuttered before Jeb interrupted me.

"I can tell you what to do Melody and I am."

I knew what he was doing. "Oh no. You are not getting me to save the world. That was Max's job. Not me. I'm just trying to survive. No way." I clenched my hands into fists. Jewel and Skye looked from me to Jeb. Jewel looked worried, but Skye looked amused.

He shook his head. "Melody, I don't want you to save the world. I just want you to be safe."

That threw me for a loop. "What?" I asked, incredulously. "You don't want me to save the world?" This was a new one.

He shook his head again. "No I don't. What I want you to do is visit an… acquaintance of mine. You should be able to rest and get some good food. He lives in a small town in Tennessee. Martin, Tennessee. You'll reach it by tomorrow."

"What do you mean tomorrow?" I asked. If this guy lived in Tennessee then we'd be there long before nightfall.

"Melody, it's twelve o'clock." Jeb informed me.

"Twelve! We slept that long!" I shouted in amazement.

Jewel spoke up then. "Mel, maybe it's a good thing that we slept so long. We all feel a lot better. It'll give us more energy in case we run into Tanner."

Jeb nodded. "Yes. From what you tell me about Tanner, it is best that you all have a lot of energy to fight him. Willow and Flint too. The Director wouldn't have picked them if they weren't dangerous."

Skye tightened his grip on his fork, his knuckles turning white. I thought I heard a low growl coming from his throat.

"I suppose." I said, trying not to show that I was really worried about Skye. I didn't want him to do anything stupid, something he'd regret.

"Well," Jeb said, standing up. "I suppose you all better get going. But, before you do I have one more thing for you that should make your trip easier."

I raised an eyebrow, curious. Jeb left the room and returned moments later with a black backpack.

"I thought you could carry the laptop and other things in it." he said, tossing it to me.

I caught it and nodded. "Skye and I will take turns carrying it. That way neither of us has to carry it for very long." Skye glared at me, so I tossed it to him. "Thanks for volunteering to carry it first Skye. What a gentleman."

He rolled his eyes, but slung it over his shoulder anyway.

I walked to the spare room Jewel and I had slept in. I grabbed the laptop and the comb I had used to untangle my hair after my shower. You never knew what you might need. I also made sure I still had a bobby pin in my pocket. I did.

"'Kay." I said, walking into the living room. Skye and Jewel were waiting at the door for me. I shoved the comb and laptop into the backpack and zipped it up. "Let's get going."

"Wait Mel!" Jeb called from the kitchen. He rushed into the living room, waving a piece of paper. "This is the address of the person I want you to see. Keep that close."

I nodded and started to turn towards the door when Jeb flung his arms around me in a hug. I was taken aback, and not much of a hugger, so I awkwardly patted Jeb on the back.

I pulled back and stood up straight, straightening his glasses. "Sorry. You're family. Be safe."

"I will." I promised and pulled the door open. I walked out into the hall, followed by Skye and Jewel. Jewel shut the door behind her and we walked down the stairs, out of the apartment, and onto the crowded street in silence.

My life had certainly gotten a lot more complicated in the past month. I remember Max wondering what kinds of adventures I'd have. I just scoffed. I didn't think my life would be very exciting. Just grow up in that small town, get a job, and pray that some guy out there would love me even with wings.

I never thought I'd be running for my life with two other kids depending on me. I always thought that was more Max and my mother, not me. I always thought I was more of the normal type of person. Whatever normal meant anymore.

I felt Jewel tug on my arm and was brought back to Earth. Man, I'd been spacing out a lot lately.

"Oh man. I think I'm still a little sleepy." I said, faking a yawn. "Sorry Jewel." I looked at where we were and turned a corner. Perfect, an abandoned alleyway.

I led them into it and we took off, still completely silent. I guess we all had things to think about. A lot of things to think about. I looked at Skye and sighed to myself. Scratch that. A whole hell of a lot of things to think about.

Well, that's all for now. I'll try and update sometime next week. Uh, remember to leave me a nice, long, lovely review. Also, read my Twilight story 'Solar Flare'. It's pretty amazing. Well, I still want pictures of my characters, so draw me up some pictures and send them to me. Okay then, well I gotta go. Keep reading and reviewing. Check out Melody's blog. The link's on my profile. Bye!
