I opened my eyes and an amazing smell flowed through my nose. COOKIES!!

I jumped up and ran to the kitchen and saw the flock, Ella, Mom and Jeb all looking at me.

"I told you that would wake her up " mom said with a grin making everyone laugh as I took a cookie from the tray that mom had just pulled out of the oven. I sat down next to

Fang and he looked at me and chuckled shaking his head.

I ignored them all and bit into my cookie. Everyone walked out of the room and went off to do their own thing, Mom and Jeb had to go to work and Ella had to go to school, most of the flock went to watch TV in the living room and Fang and I stayed in the kitchen.

"Morning sleepy head" Fang said smirking at me

"I didn't sleep in that late… just later than everyone else."

"Yeah" Fang said, then it was silent for a moment. I was thinking about the kiss that he gave me last night did it mean anything? Did he mean it? Did I like it? All of these questions were swirling through my mind when Fang broke through the silence.

"You have a plan yet?"

"There is always a plan" I said smirking at him.

"Like waiting here until you have a real one?" He said raising his eyebrows at me.

"We need to figure out who 'they' are and where they are coming from. We took down Itex already but obviously there are still people looking for us." Fang nodded and then we fell silent until Nudge, Angel, and Iggy came running out of the living room gasping for air.

"Gazzy!" Nudge yelled, "That is so gross!" Gazzy walked out of the room a big smirk on his face.

"It is a power do we discourage you from using your powers?"

"Gazzy" I started "I refuse to call that a power and her powers don't knock people out every time that they are used!"

"That could be considered a good thing," Gazzy said smiling

"Yeah! Don't we want our enemies to pass out from toxic fumes?" Iggy said

"But we don't want the flock to!" Nudge screamed.

"Look" I said, "Gazzy don't use your… ability against the flock and only if you have to against others, I don't think that ability would work to much against flyboys or anything not alive. Are we clear?"

"Yeah I guess" Gazzy said

"Good now lets all go out side and get some fresh air." I said taking charge.

"Max?" Angel said looking up to me.

"Yeah sweetie?" I said looking into her sweet innocent eyes.

"What are we going to do today?"

"Well anyone have any ideas on what we could do today?" I said to the flock and was instantly bombarded by answers.

"Chucky cheeses!"

"Disney world!"

"Paris!"

"Lets go shopping! We could get clothes and shoes and we could get a few skirts because I have always wanted to get a skirt. They are sooo pretty! I think you would look really good in a skirt Max! But you would probably never agree to wear it yo-" Nudge was cut off by Iggy's hand over her mouth.

"Lets go to the beach" Iggy suggested and everyone cheered and started talking about what they could do at the beach.

"Okay okay!" I yelled "We can go to the beach but it has to be a beach that other people don't go to, and Angel no staying under water for over five minutes at a time." I was answered with a chorus of cheers.

"Alright then lets go!" I said and Iggy took off first followed by Gazzy, then by Nudge and Angel with Total (he still has trouble taking off), leaving Fang and me

"Ladies first" He said gesturing for me to take off next.

"And since when have I been a lady?"

"Just go" and with that I took off.

I just love the feeling of flying, the wind blowing through my hair, the power through each stroke of my strong wings holding me up in the air, the world below me. It feels like I belong in this crazy mixed up world somehow like there is a place where I can just be myself and not worry about other people. It's just me and my flock.

"How about that one" A soft voice

Whispered in my left ear. I looked down and saw the beach that he was talking about. It was perfect! It looked safe there weren't any people because of the rocks around it making it hard to get to on foot. I smiled at him.

"Alright guys we are going to land now!" I yelled to the rest of the flock and we all started going down landing on the hot sand one by one.

"Okay guys you know the rules." I yelled out and watched as they all went their separate ways into the ocean.

"Think of anything yet?" Fang said next to me his dark eyes sparkling at me

"I'm still not sure but if they, who ever they are, are after us then we probably shouldn't stay here at mom's for long." I said trailing off and then sat down on the sand underneath a tree making the air and sand quite cooler. Fang sat next to me and we sat in silence looking out at the ocean and the flock until we heard a piercing noise over the rocks on the other beach. It almost sounded like… no it couldn't be... could it?
