(Max's POV)

So summer is rapidly drawing to an end. Ella's getting ready for school, and were getting for Europe…at least some of us are. Nudge, Gazzy and Angel are staying back to get a good shot at school, and try to live semi normal lives. Fang, Iggy and I are still going to Europe. I never thought I'd leave my flock behind again…

I would have been staying behind if it weren't for Iggy's complaints, and Fang urging me to 'go on the vacation I'll never have again.' I have to admit, it does sound nice,

So here I am, in the room I share with Ella, packing…more like shoving anything I might need into a small drawstring backpack. Two changes of clothes; check. Hairbrush; check (like I'll use it). Money; lots of it, check. I looked around the room; it didn't look that empty with me gone. Sighing I look around one more time to see if I've left anything behind. My eyes lock onto a picture. The flock, Ella and my mom all together, smiling.

Taking that picture was hell, but looking at it again I couldn't leave it behind. I take it out of its frame and place it into my backpack.

I walk out of the room I stayed in for months and felt unsettled. On the move again. Always on the move… I shock the thought from my mind and walked down the stairs and out the front door where everyone was waiting for me.

I smiled and walked over to my mom and gave her a hug, he tears damping the back of my shirt.

"Keep in touch ok? Don't do anything reckless, and stay out of trouble!"

"Ok mom. Keep them safe." I moved over to Ella who was crying too hard to actually say anything but, a garbled 'miss you'. Nudge was the same, but it took almost five minutes to pry her off of me. I walked over to Gazzy, my strong little man.

"Stay safe Max…" After a second of silence, he hugged me and I whispered in his ear,

"You're the new man of the house. It's your responsibility to take care of everyone." He nodded and I walked over to Angel. My baby, the one that I basically raised, her eyes were red and her eyes were pouring out tears by the dozen. I hugged her tight and said goodbye.

I looked over at Iggy and Fang, and signaled the up and away sign. The nodded and we took off. I looked over my shoulder and the last thing I saw was Angels face grinning. Not a sweet grin, but one of those that you should be afraid of. As unnerving as that was I kept flying eagerly awaiting for my vacation.
