I throttled the engine to catch up with Jade, blaring a song we both like "Static Age" by Green Day, and when I did I played air guitar while riding my motorcycle kind of like a surfboard. Continuing down the road I passed Alex and for a second it looked like she was worried about me, I caught up to Jack and jumped onto the top of his truck, playing my real guitar along to the song, and from inside the truck, I heard Jack singing along. After a bit of doing that the song was over and I changed it to another song and plugged in my headphones, I wanted to have more fun, so I willed my bike over and jumped onto it, and started riding towards a mountain that was coming up on our right that made the road kind of like a canyon. Riding to the top of it I stopped at the peak of the mountain and took out a pair of binoculars, I saw Alex looking kind of worried and talking to someone over the radio, and I knew it was time. I jumped off the cliff and fell for a solid minute before I was twenty or so yards from the ground when I shifted, growing my wings to full size, and pretty much slingshotted forward, I chased after them and when I caught up to Alexandria I waved and mockingly blew a kiss at her before flapping my wings and continuing forward after Jack. I kept doing this kind of thing the rest of the day until we got to the hotel we arranged to rendezvous at with Dylan and Mark, and sure enough, they were waiting for us in the parking lot. I landed on top of the tank as Miguel pulled into the parking lot, and when we parked the tank on top, crushing it, of a mini cooper, they looked at us like we were idiots.

"What?? Never seen a tank crush a clown car?" I said smirking at the cooper, Miguel and JJ got out of the truck, and it was only now that I saw that Jay had two marks on his neck, like a vampire bite but not painful, and permanent, and I would've asked him if it was what I thought it was had a tiny something not interrupted me.

"Is that-" I said before getting punched in the gut then face, and when I stopped groaning I looked up to see Alex smirking at me, "What the fuck was that for?!"

"Fer scaring the shit outta me and making me worry you fuckwad."

"So, you were worried? Does that mean that you admit that you care about this shit fer brains?" Dylan asked and Alexandria gave him a look, and if looks could kill that one did.

"No! Of course not, I was worried he would make me crash the fucking truck," She said and I looked over at Jack, and he looked hurt, but I knew we both had the same thought run through our heads 'Ouch, that stings'.

"Whatever," I said and signaled for Jack to follow me, telling Jade on our way out of the parking lot to get everyone into the hotel room, and to not let Alex out of her sight. We walked down the street towards a bar that we had passed on our way over to the hotel, it was about a half mile away, and we decided to go to after we had parked in the parking lot. When we got to the bar we headed straight for the back and sat down in the booth, we never liked the seats at the bar, and the booths were always comfortable. The waiter swung by and took our drink orders, before leaving us to decide on food, when I heard the familiar tune of the ringtone I had for Jade's number on my phone. I didn't know whether I wanted to answer it or not so I gave the phone to Jack, who answered it in the most 'Jack' way possible.

"What the fuck fucking exploded, Jade?" He said, making me laugh and apparently the waiter as he brought us our drinks and asked me if I was going to wait for Jack to finish his call before ordering, I loudly hummed in Jack's general direction, and he punched me in the shoulder.

"If you order without me ordering, I'll punch your balls so hard you turn into a hermaphrodite," He said before going back onto the phone, making me laugh so hard I almost spit out my drink, the waiter said he'd come back in ten minutes or so and Jack handed me the phones saying that Jade needed to tell me something.

"Hey, Jade, what's goin' on?"

"Have you seen Alexandria anywhere?"

"No, you said you'd keep an eye on her though."
