I'll try to continue getting a short chapter out every day, and I already have a plan for a third one if you guys like this. Please keep reviewing. Both positive and negative feedback is welcome, cuz I need to be told what I'm doing wrong if you want me to fix it. Ok, thanks for reading. I'll get on with the chappie now.

Total's POV

That insufferable lot. They are sooo unappreciative of my genius. I can't believe they didn't like my idea of having Angel broadcast their thoughts into other people's heads. It was Fun! And now they're mad at me! Do they care that Angel did it, not me? No! They think it's all my fault. And they're mad at each other now too. In fact the only ones not fighting with each other are the couples (no, I'm not clueless enough to not pick up on those) Max and Fang, and Iggy and Mel. Let's see, Max is mad at Angel for all those bombs that she didn't know about that angel knew Iggy had, Iggy is mad at Fang because he found out where his bomb building supplies went (down the toilet after he found out about them, and wanted to suck up to max by getting rid of them), Fang is mad at Gazzy for borrowing his favorite CD and dropping it (he had thought that he was still borrowing it) Gazzy is mad at Mel because he heard her thoughts about his partner in crime Iggy. And Mel is mad at Nudge for what she is thinking about Iggy. And finally Nudge is mad at Iggy for what he was thinking about Mel. And they're all mad at me. But a little miffed at Angel, who knew everything already, and didn't tell anyone. They even made me eat Dog food. Ugh.

Max's POV

That darn dog. I'm so mad at him. He deserves that dog food. Did you realize that no one is mad at me? is that luck or what, but then again, I was thinking about fang and no one would be particularly upset about that any way, but I feel bad for Mel, Nudge, and Iggy. They are all pretty messed up. What I think happened is that Gazzy is mad at Mel for distracting Iggy from bombs, Mel is mad at Nudge for liking Iggy, but doesn't want to admit it. Nudge is mad at Iggy for thinking about Mel (she's jealous). Iggy is mad at Nudge for liking him and being mean to Mel. So the only people who are happy here are Fang and I. And we're still pretty miffed about the thought swapping prank. Oh, well. I think we had better get going before we loose the morning. "Come on guys! Daylight's burning, and we're all arguing. That won't exactly get us anywhere." Grumbling, everyone put on their pack, and we all took off. Once in the air, all our moods lifted, Flying can to that to you, even Fang had a slight smile playing across his lips. Soon, we were all (with the exception of Fang, and Mel) laughing and joking around and the younger ones were doing flips and rolls, diving and soaring, seeing who could do the fanciest tricks. All of a sudden, no, not erasers, Mel flew up and joined the younger ones, showing them that trick of hers where she flies with her wings pulled in close to her body, and has much more maneuverability. She flew in loops so tight that I wouldn't have believed it possible if I hadn't seen it. They were all amazed (naturally) having never seen her fly before. Iggy kept pestering her to tell him what she had done. It had even impressed Nudge enough to leave her speechless, which is not something just anyone can do. "Whoa." She whispered. "Thanks" said Mel. "I can show you how to some time, if you like." Nudge opened her mouth, then shut it, and nodded. "Hey Max, where are we going?" asked Angel. "I think it would be a good idea to go into the Mountains, because the school's gone, and we can take off there without anyone noticing." "Ok, that sounds fun, but what about Dr.Martinez, and Ella? Are we going to invite them to come see us?" what was she thinking? They could be killed, even though the school and Itex had been destroyed, I wasn't exactly sure that there was no one out there that wanted us dead. "We'll see," "I bet that means no." said Gazzy, flying up beside his sister. "No, it means that I'm still thinking about it." I lied. There was no way in hell that my mom and sister could be put in that kind of danger, I wasn't going to stand for it. Gazzy rolled his eyes, and swooped down to fly beside Nudge. Angel followed. I flew upwards to fly next to Fang. His wings brushing mine on the down strokes. I looked over at him and smiled. He smiled back which was enough of a rarity in it's self, but then he said "So Max, what's up?" "Finally, he speaks!" I exclaimed in mock surprise. He rolled his eyes and smiled again he was on a role.

Mel's POV (later that evening)

As we sat around the campfire, all stuffed full of Iggy's wonderful cooking, Iggy and I were babysitting, as Max and Fang had gone off into the woods for a "chat". I had a bet with Iggy that they were making out. He said they were just talking. Pish, they were so making out, how could he be so clueless. Oh well, we weren't exactly doing the whole couple thing yet, either though. Maybe they were, maybe they weren't I couldn't be positive either way, but I would be when they got back. (insert evil laugh here)

Anyway, Iggy's head was in my lap, and I was smoothing his hair back from his face. He seemed to be happy leaving us at friends with benefits, rather than the whole couple thing, and even if I wanted something more, I wasn't about to risk ruining our friendship over it. sigh Just then, Max and Fang came back into the clearing we were spending the night in. Some of Max's lip gloss was smeared on Fang's face, and was that a hikey on her neck? "Ha! I told you! You so owe me five bucks, Pyro." I laughed triumphantly. "Max, were you kissing?" asked Angel "Um… I guess you could say that…" She trailed off guiltily. "Darn it." Said Iggy. Fang grinned. "Iggy, I'm grinning" he said. Iggy groaned in defeat, and handed over the cash. I pocketed it, and Max glared accusingly at me I shrugged and offered to take first watch. Iggy took second. Max third, and Fang fourth. This was going to be a long night…
