Me: Okay I need to do another Ella x Iggy story!!

Iggy: Yo, Iggy here. Razzle got another crazy Idea in her head!

Me: Mitochondrial Deoxyribonucleic Acid.

Iggy: Bless you.

Me: Silly, Mitochondrial Deoxyribonucleic Acid is DNA that is passed from mother to child. There for Ella has the same mitochondrial DNA as Max. Hint hint.

Iggy: Oh I get it! You are evilly smart!

Me: ON WITH THE STORY!

Ella's POV

"Iggy," I called.

Iggy and I had decided to look for some early blackberries in the hills. So Iggy flew me all the way out here, in the beautiful green mountains we were hours from home. I loved it. It was midsummer and the flock had been living with us for awhile. I had developed a huge crush that nobody knew about but Angel, Max, and Nudge. All of whom assured me I wasn't treading on any toes.

"Yeah," he said.

I looked over to where he was kneeling next to a blackberry bush. I went over and sat next to him. His hands were moving feather light over the bush picking off the ripe berries. I rested my hand on his knee. He turned his head and smiled at me without seeing me. I could feel my heart speed up, so I was sure he could hear it. I leaned forward careful to take my time so he could not hear what I was doing. I pressed my lips to his. He flinched in surprise, but after a moment he started kissing me back. I put away and I took a deep breath.

"Ella I-" Iggy started to say, but he was stopped.

I felt a sharp pain in my neck. I moved my hand up and felt a dart of some kind.

Then everything went black.
