Chapter 2 - Angel's Mother?

~Dream~

I held my arms out as I was given a baby. She had blonde hair, and she had ocean blue eyes. I smiled as she slept peacefully. Looking up, I didn't see the people who had given her to me. Instead, a smiling scientist stood there. "Hello, little ones." He said. I looked at myself and saw my eight year old self. The scientist began reaching out to take the baby from me.Holding her closer to my chest, I turned around and ran off. Running, I tried to spread my wings, but they wouldn't come out. Then I realized something.

I got my wings when I was ten!

Groaning, I heard the baby crying. Looking down, I tried shushing her. "We'll be okay... Angel." I said, smiling. I didn't know her real name, and she's as innocent as an Angel, so I decided on it. "Hand us the child, Subject 15!"

Confused, I looked down to see a little girl, about 3 years old, hugging me for dear life. And if she was 3, I was 10. "Don't worry, Angel. M-Mommy's here, okay?" I said, stuttering. Now I'm her mother. But, I don't mind. "Give her to us!" I heard a new voice yell. Looking up, I was faced with a girl with blonde curly locks. She reached her hands out, and that's when I noticed the light streaming in behind her.

Looking back, I realized she wouldn't be safe with me. Crying a bit, I nodded and carefully gave Angel to the girl. "Her name is Angel, okay?!" I yelled. The girl nodded. "We'll take good care of her." "But, we can't do it alone! Come with us!" A new voice yelled, outstretching his hand for me to grab. Just as I was about to grab it, the scientist grabbed me.

Screaming, I struggled to get out of his grasp. But, I was ten, and he was 21. "Mommy!" Angel screamed, reaching her little arms out for me to join her. Shaking my head, I saw some tears form in her eyes. "I'll be fine! Mommy will be just fine, Angel! Go with them, okay?" I asked. They had given her wings when she was a baby, but they had done it when I was asleep. That was cruel, and I would make sure they didn't treat her how they treated me ever since I was captured.

"Mommy!" "Let's go, Max!" I heard a man say. 'Max' looked at me sadly, but nodded before spreading her wings and flying off with others. A scientist, that appeared to be helping them, was following from a helicopter.

"Your in better hands now, Angel." I whispered as I was put to sleep.

~End of Dream~

I bolt up, but immediately felt pain rise in my back. Groaning, I looked around me. I was in a bed, and there were so many stuffed animals. It was very adorable. Smiling, I remembered my dream. "Angel... I wonder if your okay..." I whispered, hugging my knees. I suddenly heard a crash downstairs, and steps hurriedly making their way over here. I panicked and backed into the wall. The door slammed open and in stormed a boy with blonde hair. He was really tall, and his eyes were shut. "Iggy, she's still knocked out!" I heard someone yell as they ran up the stairs. I was suddenly tackled to the bed. I looked up, confused as to why the blonde boy was on top of me.

"Get off me!" I yelled, struggling. The pain suddenly returned and I yelped, grasping the blankets under me. "You were holding her! Why didn't you do anything to stop them!?" He yelled. Even though his eyes were closed, I could tell he was glaring at me. "I was knocked out, idiot! I would've-- Wait, stop them from what?" I asked, struggling to sit up. "They took Angel from us!" Iggy yelled. By now, all of them were in the room, trying to get him off me. I froze all over, the same sentence repeting in my mind. Tears brimmed in my eys as I pushed him off me and ran off. I didn't want anyone to see me crying.

Locking myself in the bathroom, I sat in the corner and cried. "Angel? M-My daughter?" I asked myself, more and more hot tears rolling down my cheeks the more I thought about it. "Open the door!" I heard someone yell, pounding on the door harshly. "G-Go away!" I yelled, hugging my knees as I sobbed more. "You don't understand! How would you feel if your daughter was taken away from you while you were knocked out!?" I screamed, ignoring their questions.

"What do you mean by your daughter?"

I screamed as I looked back. Sitting on the windowsill was a girl with blonde curly locks. "She's my daughter! I took care of her until she was 3, which was when some people escaped the 'School' with her!" I said, wiping my tears. Her eyes widened. "You were that little 10 year old that gave her to us..." She said. Confused, I stood up, looking at her. "Your Max?" I asked. She nodded. I gasped as I hugged her, crying more. "I'm sorry." I said as she hugged back. "It's not your fault." Max replied, stroking my tangled hair until it was it's wavy self.

"Can you open the door?" Someone asked from the hall. Looking at Max, she smiled as she nodded. Hesitantly, I unlocked the door and opened it. I was immediately hugged by a little boy with similar blue eyes as Angel. "Are you really Angel's mom?" He asked. Smiling,
I nodded. "Are you her brother?" I asked, kneeling down to be his height. Nodding, he smiled warmly. "Well then, I guess I have two adorable children." I said, giggling as he hugged me. Picking up, I stood to my feet and looked at everyone around me. Max, Iggy, the boy with black hair pulled into a ponytail, and a girl with black and white hair. "I'm Ohana. It nice to meet you all." I'm Nudge!" "Fang." "Gazzy!" The boy in my arms yelled, laughing. I giggled, putting him down.

"Okay, what happened to Angel?" I asked, worried. Everyone but Iggy looked down. Suddenly grabbing my hand, Fang mumbled something to them before taking me to the bed I woke up in.

"First, is your back okay?" He asked, turning around. That's when I realized that I was wearing a shirt and shorts. Sighing, I shrugged. "I don't know...?" I said, but it was more a question then a statement. Fang looked worried and gestured for me to turn around. I obeyed him, turning around and looking at the stuffed animal. I felt that my shrit was being lifted and I blushed.

"Wh-what are you doing?" I asked, blushing darker as his hand softly pressed against my back. I groaned as his followed a line. "It's not bleeding, but you should probably lay down." Fang said, putting my shirt back down. Nodding, I layed down."Now tell me what happened with Angel." I said, looking up at him.Sighing, he sat down next to me. "Do you really want to know?" He asked, looking down at me, sorrow in his eyes. I hesitated before nodding.

"The Erasers... They kidnapped her, and they brought her back to the 'School'."

My eyes widened, more tears brimming in my eyes. Damn it! I must've looked so weak to them! "Don't cry, Ohana. We're going to get her back." Fang whispered, squeezing my hand to reassure me. Smiling weakly, I blushed as I nodded.

"I know you will."
