it only gets weirder from here

Max POV

I shivered and sat up. I saw nothing but white around me. I yearned for Fangs warmth back. I looked down and saw I was wearing a paper thin, hospital gown. My wings were clearing visible is you looked at me from behind.

All of a sudden I heard an explosion.

In the distance I saw a tall, strawberry blonde, haired kid. His back was turned to me and he too had on a hospital gown. I could clearly see his white wings poking out of the gown. I smiled and called to him.

"Iggy!" I shouted.

I watched as Iggy turned toward me.

He was holding a bunch of wires and and couple sticks of dynamite. He had black ash smeared on his face and the front of his gown.

"Max!" He started to run up to me with a huge smile on his face but then stopped.

All of a sudden he collapsed to the ground and clutched his head. I darted toward him but then I crashed into an invisible wall. Separating my brother and I was a wall that was see through and it wasn't sound proof. I could hear Iggy's antagonizing screams as he held his head.

I watched hopelessly as Iggy curled up into a ball on the other side of the wall.

All of a sudden I saw a red spot blossom from his head. Right above his ear, blood starts to flow out. It landed on the pure, white floor and his clothes. It stained his strawberry blonde hair turning parts of it crimson red.

"Iggy!" I shrieked.

He turned toward me as the side of his head and his eyes started leaking blood. He choked out the word "Max..." and then he passed out as the blood continues to seep out. After a moment him and all around him is covered in his blood.

"No Iggy!" I shrieked. "Iggy don't leave me! Iggy! No no no!" I pounded my fist against the the wall as the tears streamed down my face.

I sunk to the ground and cried. "I love you Iggy." I whispered.

"Max?" I heard someone say. "Max wake up."

I woke with a jolt. I looked around and saw three concerned faces looking at me.

"Max? Are you okay?" Mom asked.

"Uh yeah. Sorry just a bad dream. I'll tell you later." I told them.

I heard Gazzy groan and I smiled. Gazzy has always hated my dreams. In the seventh grade, I'd have a dream almost every night and tell it the next day. Gazzy thought it was annoying and decided to make the "10 words to tell your dream" rule. That basically meant I only had ten words to tell my dream.

"Okay. We have to go to the surgery hallway. Do you want to come?" Mom asked.

"What for?" I asked.

"Iggy is going to get surgery. I've decided that it is going to be best for him if the doctors just take out all the cancer. Removing it all would be the safest route to take."

"What do you mean?" I asked, clearly confused.

"Iggy's eyes are going to be removed."

"Iggy's going to be blind?" I whispered.

"Yes." My mother said weakly.

Before I could stop them, I felt the warm treats stream down my face.

No Max. Stop. Crying is for the weak. You've already cried enough today. I said to myself in my head.

I sniffed and looked up to Mom.

"Let's go." I said.

I got up off the sofa and followed Mom, Gazzy, and Fang down the quiet hallways.

I hate hospitals. I don't know what I hate about them. It could be the smell. Or the quietness. How cold it is everywhere in the building. Or it's because I got stolen here and experimented on.

Just then I saw a hospital bed getting wheeled down the hallway. I moved out of the way and tried to get a good look of who was in the bed. When I saw who it was I gasped.

It was Iggy. He looked so peaceful in sleep. I reached out to touch him but then the doctors pushed him towards a set of double doors.

Those double doors. Everything was about to change behind those double doors. Our lives would never be the same. I would have to drive Iggy to school everyday from now on. He would need help up and down the stairs. How is he going to cook and build bombs with Gazzy?!

I looked away and felt Mom's arm wrap around my shoulders. I buried my head head into her shirt and silently cried.
