Fang

Angel ran from my room and I groaned. My secret is about to get out to the WHOLE flock.

Unless...

Maybe I could bribe her to give it back if I bought her a dress or something. 9 year olds are pretty easy to bargain with.

"Iggy?" I called.

"Yeah?" He yelled back.

"Can you make dinner?" I heard him walk to the kitchen. After dinner I would bribe Angel. I finished my homework quickly and ran downstairs for dinner. Everyone came in and sat around the table.

But two seats were empty.

Nudge and Angel weren't there.

"Where's Angel?" Lightning asked.

I shrugged and got up from the table. Swish shouted, "Angel?"

But I already had a clue.

I zoomed upstairs to her bedroom and looked out the window. In the distance, two dots were getting farther and farther away. "Everybody! Now! Out of the house! Follow me!"

I jumped out the window and snapped out my dark wings. I started flying quickly in order to keep them in sight. Soon after, Iggy pulled up on my right. A little after that, we were all in the sky. But still behind Nudge and Angel.

With all my might, I urged myself to go faster. I put on a burst of speed. Within five minutes, I put on my invisibility and caught up to Nudge and Angel, who were chattering about Max and her baby. I silently pulled up behind Angel, payback time. I grabbed her shoulders and flung her to the side. She let out a loud screech and then started laughing hysterically. I turned off my invisibility and gave her a noogie. "You are in such big trouble." I muttered in her ear. We slowed down as everyone caught up. I made an announcement, "Ok. Let's land, but only for an hour."

We all landed in a pretty deserted area. I took deep breaths, knowing what I had to do.

Angel's voice popped in my head. It's ok, Fang. No one will be mad or unfair about this.

My voice was shaky as I said, "Well, when Max left, she also left me a seperate note. And it told me that.." I took a quick breath, "she was having a baby. My baby. And she left because she was embarassed."

Everyones mouthes drooped open and Angel squeezed my hand assuringly. They are not mad or dissapointed, just surprised. Her little voice said.

Swish spoke first. "COOL! Oh my that is so exciting! But why did she leave then? Now we will never get to see her or her baby again!"

I was about to say, "You're right. We lost our chance" when Nudge interrupted.

"Have we told you where we are heading?" SHe asked. Nice way to change the subject.

"No," Gazzy said.

Angel spoke now, "We are going to Colorado!"

I crinkled my brow in thought, already half knowing what was happening, "Why?"

Nudge and Angel both started talkign at once. "Max is there! At our old house! So we are going to go get her back!"

I was confused, but really happy. "Wha-"

Nudge kept talking, "I used my touch power thingy to find out how Max was feeling when she wrote it. But then I found out that it not only tells me the emotion, but what she was thinking when she wrote it! And I found out she was going to COlorado!"

I smiled brightly, not caring about my change in character. "Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go!"
