Here I am flying over Texas trying to arrive at my moms house... haven't ya guessed who I am yet? It's Max! Anyway. I just left Fang, just thinking of him I felt a tear streak down my cheek… his leaving was probably the hardest… he was my right hand man, my shoulder to cry on, my rock, and my sanctuary... blah. If I keep on I'll have enough to write a sappy romance novel. Anyway he was my rock and...The boy...no ...man I loved. But sadly i never mustered up enough courage to tell him and now I'll never see him again...

Flashback

We were standing side by side as I rang the doorbell… Moments later a tall black haired woman in her mid thirties answered. "Hello?" she blinked looked at me and Fang. I looked her over and stared...Fang could almost pass as her twin...moments later an older Fang look a like came out. However his hair was shorter and he had dark blue eyes. his eyes found Fang and they widened" Martha...its nick…" he whispered almost choking on emotion…

"yep this is your son I believe... we call him Fang" I said fake cheerfully and gently pushed a slightly shaking Fang toward gave me a shaky look then looked at them… "Um...hi?" he offered before he was pulled into a huge hug. He was pulled into a hug by the woman who had broke down in tears and sobbed "nick!!!" they were then hugged by the man...who i still haven't got the name of...ugh... ..Anyway as i watched them I felt pain go through me...I was losing him...Fang hugged them back leaving me shocked... yet I envied his parents slightly... and I envied Fang...he finally had a home and a shot at a normal ...well semi normal, thanks to the bas-turds.. At the school who decided to give us wings, life. They soon pulled back and the woman ...Martha… Fangs mother… ushered us in… I followed feeling kind of out of place and sat down as Fang and his parents talked... AsI watched them, a small smile appeared on my face however, my eyes were guarded.. I was losing my Fang...and I couldn't do anything about it...

Soon it was dark and time to go and me and Fang...sorry. Fang and I walked to the door and I looked at him… "so are you going to stay?" he looked at me and his chocolate eyes held happiness yet almost sadness..."yeah" he said and gave me a small smile "good because I'd call you crazy if you wasn't" I offered him a smile before a tear rolled down my cheek..

"I guess this is goodbye?" I murmured softly refusing to meet his eyes knowing I would fully break down. He sighed "yea..."he then surprised me and pulled me into a tight hug… "Promise me you'll take care of yourself Max" he breathed his face in my hair. I leaned into his embrace. "Of course I will Fang. "I murmured and looked up at him and kissed his cheek "be happy." I took a step back and gave him one last glance and offered him a smile "goodbye Fang." my smile never faltered but I was dying on the inside. "bye Max" he said with a tiny sad smile I turned and took off running before my wings flared out and I took off then bolted. Going super speed leaving behind my Secret crush/love. Best friend...and rock...I hope I could keep my promise to him…

My mom's house came into view as the tears stop pouring from my sad brown eyes. I beat my wings faster and soon I stumbled into a landing. I remembered how Fang could land so perfectly...like a hawk... and I had to push the tears back... damn I feel like a baby crying like this over him.. So weak and pathetic... next thing you know I'll be wearing a diaper...

I went over and knocked on the door only to have it creak open and I walked in and glanced around with a frown. "MOM...ELLA!" I yelled and received no answer… I continued my journey and walked into the kitchen and gasped...there on the ground, pinned to the wall, by a bunch of nails and a bullet hole between her eyes, was Mom! and beside her Ella… blood was all around her.. She looked as if someone had raped her...

I yelled out in rage "WHY DOES it HAPPEN TO ME!" I snarled I don't care who heard me I'm tired of all this... first I lose all my flock and now Ella and mom. I broke down punching the floor sobbing my heart out. I don't know when I fell asleep. But I woke up with the sun in my eyes. "Damn sun "I murmured "go annoy someone else" I sat up and looked over at there bodies and a whimper escapes me.

I bowed my head in sadness and I gently picked up Ella's body and walked out to the forest and sat her down then I moved and did the same for mom after that I light them on fire and watched as their ashes scattered in the wind. With one last glimpse at the sun, I felt the rest of my heart float away with the ashes....

MANY YEARS LATER. (Not really. I always wanted to say that) 5 years later...

Well I'm not doing much better since mom died. I flew the coop (no pun intended) and settled down in a small town in Montana. I bought a house at the edge of a town surrounded by lots of forest and land. I work at a bar called "black hawk" how ironic. Anyway… I discovered I had a new power! I could change my appearance and control the elements! Not that I use that power a lot…however the appearance thing is working.

First thing I did was turn my tan spotted white wings black in memory of Fang. Next I made myself taller and my brown eyes a bright sapphire blue and my long blonde hair a reddish brown. I changed my name. I'm known as Phoenix now… I really don't know why but I like it… Hehe sucky thing is…I'm immortal...damn...I stopped aging on my last birthday when I turned 21.

I'm a singer at the bar... now that I mention it… the bar i'm flying toward right now. I never thought I could really sing. But hell the people in the bar must think I can… not that I'm complaining. I make at least 500 a song. And singing 10 songs a night for a week is pretty damn good along with being a bartender… yeah. I'm getting by.

I landed in a alley and slip into my blue jean jacket that covers my wings and brush my fiery bangs back and practice a fake smile then walk into the bar. The first person I meet is my friend Tina. She's a dark blonde who works as a stripper here to make money for her son. Her parents abandoned her when they found out She was pregnant. She had only been 17 when she fled to here and now she works here and is a really good friend, however; not as good as Fang used to be..

She waves at me from the stage and I wave back with a smile. Not to long after that she's finished and I go to the back to decide what song I was going to sing. Most of the ones I decide on are already written .I hear the announcer as he prepares my stage

"Yall know who's up now...our own. Phoenix!" I smirk. I feel so appreciated and loved as I hear the crowd. I never thought I'd be that good. Hmm maybe someday I'll be as famous as Faith Hill and marry a Tim McGraw… Na...I'm not into marrying anymore. Not since I left I'm sure he's moved on. Probably got a bunch of little Fangys running around.

I'd kill me if he ever heard me say that. so I pick up my dark black acoustic guitar and walk out closing my eyes against the bright light as I look at my band members and nod to them and I feel the beat slowly start and I let myself give into it and soon the words come from me as I sing about Fang

I don't think of you every day and night
I got things to do, yeah I'm doing alright
So, I can't explain why in times like these
I nearly go insane when you're not here with me
Oh I know it's really over and you're never coming back
And there's no way that I can make it right
Still I wonder, oh I wonder, oh baby I can't but wonder
Who's kissing you tonight?

As I look around I spot a head of dark black hair and I almost shaggy black hair...the olive colored skin...

I see this "Fang "dancing with redhead that I recognize...Lisa...I bite back a growl as I inhale there scent and almost stop singing… it is Fang...

"oh nick" I heard her breath against his chest "I love you"

Oh I know it's really over and you're never coming back
And there's no way that I can make it right
Still I wonder, oh I wonder, oh baby I can't but wonder
Who's kissing you..Who's kissing tonight?
Who's holding you tight? Aw, Who's kissing you tonight?

As I finish that last song I hear him whisper back to her "I love you too Lisa" just to hear those words it breaks my heart all over again. "As long as he's happy. " I mumble beneath my breath before I push it to the back of my mind. "Whose ready for a fast one?" I yell with a grin as I start one of my favorite songs.

"So who's ready for a fast song?" I yell before I strum my guitar and begin

(Watch ya got)

Quit my job flipped off the boss took my name off the payroll.
(screw you man)
Picked up my cell rang my baby's bell said I'm three miles from home.
I said sugar why don't you put on that sundress I like so much,
Wait out by the road I'm comin' to pick you up.

(whoa)
Throw your suitcase in the back,
(whoa)
Done gassed up the Pontiac,
(whoa)
Blastin' out to Johnny Cash, headin' for the highway,
Baby we ain't ever comin' back.

It's four hundred and sixty seven miles to the outskirts of Las Vegas.
What do you say we go get married by a preacher man that looks like Elvis.
(yeah momma)
Sugar don't you worry bout tellin' your momma goodbye,
We'll send her a souvenir postcard from the wild side.

(whoa)
Throw your suitcase in the back,
(whoa)
Done gassed up the Pontiac,
(whoa)
Blastin' out to Johnny Cash, headin' for the highway,
Baby we ain't ever comin' back.

(whoa)
Throw your suitcase in the back,
(whoa)
Done gassed up the Pontiac,
(whoa)
Blastin' out to Johnny Cash, headin' for the highway,
Baby we ain't ever comin' back.

(suey!)

(woah)

After I'm finished with that song I decided to take one of my breaks and go work at the bar. While I'm sipping on my Bloody Mary. The redheaded bitch…I mean Lisa. Approaches with Fang…I mean NICK! I sighed in my head and I plaster a fake smile on my face. "Hello, what would the lovely couple like to drink?" I drawl out and almost wink as fang looks at me for a moment.. Aw hell. What will it hurt? I wink at him and he blinks at me in shock. I laugh. "just play doll." thank god for shape shifting…

" a Pina Colada for the lady and Corona with Salt and Lime for me." I nodded and as I turn to get the lime and salt I shut my eyes. His voice has changed so much. Its now deep and husky…god…So sexy…whoops..Gotta make drinks Max ol Girl!

"coming right up." I turn back setting the Corona on the bar while placing a sliced up lime inside of it and drizzling a little salt along the edge and then quickly whiping up a Pina Colada. Lisa gets a good look at me and I hide my scowl as she squeals. "Your Phoenix aren't you?" she asked excited as I raise my eyebrow. "well, that is what my name tags says isn't it?" I couldn't contain it. Stupid Redheads…My mouth will get me in trouble someday. Well it already has…hehe. she blinks taken back before she asks me a question.

"why did you start out with that song." she asked curiously. "about...5 years ago I left someone I loved. who didn't even know I cared about him and so that song reminds me of him why?" I quickly answer watching her and feeling Nicks heated gaze. a small growl escapes me "will you kindly avert your eyes. "I said nicely glancing at him. as my blue eyes darken. damn emotions. when I experience then suddenly my eyes start turning back brown.

he blinked" sorry...you just remind me of someone I use to know" he said quickly and glanced down at Lisa as she gasped "oh yeah…your sister Max...I wonder how she is..."she looks up at Fang and he stiffens..."I hope she's doing fine and has a bunch of little Maxies running around" he says as he leads her away from the bar and I snort. "little Maxies"I murmur shaking my head.

as I serve my third round of drinks I'm suddenly announced back on I start walking back up there and wonder about the song i'm gonna sing now.. I feel Fangs gaze on my every step and I growl but soon I'm standing at the stage and finally decided on a song.

I took a walk around the world
To ease my troubled mind
I left my body laying somewhere
In the sands of time
But I watched the world float
To the dark side of the moon

I feel there is nothing I can do, yeah

I watched the world float
To the dark side of the moon
After all I knew it had to be
Something to do with you
I really don't mind what happens now and then
As long as you'll be my friend at the end

I can't contain my smirk as I slip off my jacket and the lights dimmer around me as I change the tips of my wings to a Crimson red as I prepare to do what I always do…

If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be
There a-holding my hand
I'll keep you by my side
With my superhuman might
Kryptonite

I unfurl my large black and red wings and watch briefly as they glow red . I hear the awe and shocked gasps of those who haven't seen me perform this song and the whoops and yells of those getting a repeat. I'm glad someone actually likes my wings…anywho…wait…one of those gasps were Fang..I mean Nick..

You called me strong, you called me weak,
But still your secrets I will keep
You took for granted all the times
I never let you down
You stumbled in and bumped your head,
If not for me then you'd be dead
I picked you up and put you back
On solid ground

If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I'm alive and well,
Will you be there a-holding my hand
I'll keep you by my side
With my superhuman might
Kryptonite

If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I'm alive and well, will you be there
Holding my hand
I'll keep you by my side
With my superhuman might
Kryptonite
Yeah!!

If I go crazy then will you still
Call me Superman
If I'm alive and well,
Will you be there a-holding my hand
I'll keep you by my side
With my superhuman might
Kryptonite
Yeah!!

After I finish my song I make my wings translucent and invisible and pull them back in with a small grin. I pull some feathers out of my pocket and throw them to the crowd a handful of white…black…red…and tan feathers. some were my original colors the others were what I changed it into.

then I begin my final song...

A hundred days have made me older
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face
A thousand lies have made me colder

I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight it's only you and me

The miles just keep rollin'
As the people leave their way to say hello
I've heard this life is overrated
But I hope that it gets better as we go

I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl its only you and me

Everything I know, and anywhere I go
It gets hard but it wont take away my love
And when the last one falls
When it's all said and done
It gets hard but it wont take away my love

I look out into the crowd and met Fang..er..Nicks…aw hell. Eyes with my sorrowful Browns and I feel something…something that scares me…

I 'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl its only you and me

I finish and the last tear slides down my face as a smile appears "that's the last you'll hear of me for a while. phoenix is blowing this joint for a few!"then smoke and fire surrounds me and I slip out the secret door ending up in the alley way and I lean against the wall trembling.

soon enough I'm airborne… you guys are probably thinking why i've been so quiet. well you try losing your whole family then your last bit of real family and finding out the guy you love is now dating the red headed devil. so as I'm flying my black wings start fading back to white and tan and i sigh. then I see a black shape… "shit" I murmured and then poured on the speed...

that's it for now until i decide what to do now… the songs are "who's kissing you tonight" by Jason aldean "Johnny cash" Jason aldean. "kryptonite"and"here without you" by 3 doors down. I've redone this first chapter and hope that its better than the first try!
