Maximum Ride: Unforgettable

Chapter 5

Angels POV

I shove my way through the crowd of of people. I need to find Gazzy. Almost everyone is taller than me.

Then I spot Iggy, wich is pretty easy since he's 6"3' and has strawberry blonde hair. "Do you know where Gazzy is?I need to find him now." I say quickley.

"Angel, I have no clue." He says. A guilty look is on his face. I can't help but smile. They've gotten in trouble 22 times and we've only been here a month.

I start bouncing up and down when I see Gazzy walking towards us. "Max needs our help! We need to go now!" I say.

Gazzy's face twists. "Are you sure? Because Dr. Martinez said that she went on some mission and thought it was too dangerous for us to come."

"But I saw her! I read her mind!" I said a little to dramatically.

"I'll take any reason to get out of this place." Iggy says.

"We just need a little distraction." I say. Gazzy nods and and pulls the fire alarm without a second thought.

Then we walk outside with all the chaos. Finally it won't be Max saving me, this time its the other way around.

"So you have a plan?" Iggy asks. "No! I thought something would just hit me and I would be a hero!"

I look over at Gazzy. He is laughing crazily. I stomp on his foot. I hate how he can mimmick me perfectly. "Ouchh!" I stick my tounge out at him.

"Actually, I thought we should try to find something at the library." I say.

We walk down allys as it starts to get dark.

"Maybe we should rest somewhere?" Gazzy says yawning. "Just a little while longer, I think we're almost there." I hope we're almost there. I sigh. Good thing they can't read minds.

Then eight big guys surround us. "Can I help you?" I ask nervously. What would Max do?I look over at Gazzy and see him start to pannick.

Then they start transforming. Erasers. I should've guessed. Go away! Go away! I think hard.

It doesn't seem to effect them.

I let out a shriek as one of them pulls my hair before I can run away. I look over at Gazzy, two erasers are holding his arms while another one punches him in the stomache. Iggy is thrown against a building, head first. He falls to the ground hard, and doesn't get up.

I wriggle free from the eraser that held me and hit my fists agaisnt the side of his face, breaking his eardrums. Another eraser punches me in the nose. Blood runs down my face, everywhere. I fall to my knees.

I leap up and try to fly, but I'm not fast enough. Two erasers grab my wings and I know exactly what they are going to do next.

I let out an earpiercing sceam and close my eyes tight.
