Blaike had sat, mostly silent the whole night. Watching. It was actually a fun thing to do, no matter how boring it sounded. But, with all this new information, the new flock, Max constantly flashing looks at them, her head just couldn't take it. Especially with the lack of sleep. She wanted to as Max if she'd ever dealt with anything like what her and Kit were dealing with, but with the tension waves that was coming off of her, it didn't sound like a great idea. And tonight would for sure be another night without sleep, because there was no way that she was going to have a nightmare in the middle of the night, and be laughed at. She watched out the smallest of Max's flock usually hung around Max. She was a pretty little thing, that was for sure. And Max, the way the others looked at her, and she looked at them. It was beautiful to say the least. She realized how jealous she was of Max. How perfect her life must be. She had people to look up to her. And what did Blaike have? A group of people, who really didn't know anything about her. Except Kit. He was the only one. She knew it was partly because they've been together since the dawn of time, but he understood her which was huge. But Max here, she had everyone counting on her. Blaike could only hope to be as great as her someday. 'Don't worry. They do understand you, they're simply frightened. Trust is built and earned, not given or taken easily.' A small voice came in her head. Blaike looked around to see if it was someone talking to her. A little girl perhaps? But the only little girl around was Angel, and she was still looking up at Max. The small girl looked up at Blaike with a knowing look in her eyes that was way beyond her years. Blaike stood quickly and walked over to the fire where Kit and Fang were awkwardly sitting. She sat down next to Kit to breathe. Her headache was acting up again. The pain was nearly unbearable. She squinted her eyes at the fire. Praying and hoping it would die down soon. This was not how she imagined meeting Max at all.
Ooc: I might be on a few times during the hiatus...
Ic: Scott sat and watched everyone talk to Max and her Flock, uninterested. He sighed deeply as night came, and he lay down, waiting for sleep to come. He thought of Max, how amazing it was to see her in person, but he didn't care right now. Maybe he would try to talk to them in the morning. He didn't know where they'd go, or what they were seeking now that they'd found Max.

ooc: I've been in a tree with a hole huge enough for me before!XD Sorry bout that though.^.^' I keep thinking Saturn likes sleeping in trees.Thankies!
ic:Saturn went over and sat next to Scott who was next to a tree with a hole in it. She automaticaly went in the hole that was just above him like it was an instinct. She sat up there staring at the others. Iggy was off to the side near the tree, so she talked to him."Hi. Your Iggy right?Nice to make your aquantance."Saturn said with a smile. Even if this kid couldn't see,she would still smile."Say,Scott, have you met Iggy?"Saturn asked Scott. She was just above both bird kids in the hole n the tree. Feeling lonley, she shrank back in the hole. It was nice to meet Max and her flock,but they seemed cold hearted with suspicion. Iggy had just now looked up into the tree. He could still hear her.

"Alright, that's it. I understand me and Fang being all grumpy-like, but the whole flock can't do it!" Theo grumbled, before boldly marching across the space that the two flocks had left, on one side Max stood, on the other, Theo's group had sat. Be careful. Don't spite her, or she'll leap at you like a snarling cat. Do I care? She needs a little bit of talking to. A leader can't act like a spoiled brat. Whatever you say. Hey, do you bear any semblance to the 'voice' that Max was talking to? Er? The one that told her strange prophetic things. Doubt it. I can't see the future. I only chat with you because I'm your other half. Well, whatever. She should be interested. "Max?" he asked, striding up. "I'm Theo." Holding his hand out to shake, he put it back down when she refused it. Eyes narrowing, and lip twitching, he said, "Look, we've been looking forward to meeting you since those little ones were born. And now that we come here, all you do is glare daggers at us and speak not a word, being outright rude. They all thought they'd find family and acceptance here and all you do is give them the cold shoulder. Kit and Blaike have piercing headaches, but they're afraid to talk to you because they think you'll further alienate us. I've got a random voice in my head, but I could care less what you think about it. I'm the only one in my group, the only one, who's got guts enough to speak out against you, because I don't give a crap about what you think." Theo was almost ranting. Max looked at him strangely, more strangely than before, as if having her eyes opened when she was merely listening to see something. "You're a strange one," she said quietly. "It comes of being betrayed," he spat. "I should know about that." "Really? Then why aren't you like Mr. Gloomy over there?"

"That was not comforting either!"
"It is the way of the Creed. Usually our deaths are violent but quick."
Saturn walked over to Max's gang. Fang , Max and the others...... were all taller than her, but Iggy was about... still taller than her. "Max.... how have you and your flock been doing? I'm the youngest but.... how do you guys feel, being so close?"Saturn asked. She was happy to talk to somone. She smiled at them, even Iggy who was blind.
Kit tossed a sideways glance at Blaike, a silent message passed between them, 'Boy this is a dream come true isnt it?' The sarcastic look on Kit's face continued to stare at Blaike for a moment longer before he turned back to the fire. Fang's eyes were upon them, that was however until Theo managed to make his way to Max and chew her out. Kit didnt exactly see the guy as a friend, however he did have to respect his ability to say what was on his mind exactly the moment it was on his mind. Max looked a bit confused but not as hostile at Max. Kit could understand that Max wouldnt trust them right away, but that didnt mean that they had to practically give the new flock the cold shoulder. "I think its time we head to bed," Kit yawned. However as he said that something felt like it exploded in his head. He whirled around to try and find the source of the feeling but the pain only doubled. Blaike beside him flinched back from her own pain in her head. Suddenly thousands of red gleeming eyes appeared all around the twelve kids. Kit couldnt believe it! The sound of machines moved dangously close. Without another moments notice Max and her Gang were in the air. Kit was shocked at how sudden each of them took off without a word. Yet in the sky even more Flyboys were waiting. Max and her gang were trapped. A scientist stepped out from the surrounding trees and grinned up at Max. "Vell, vell , vell," he said with a heavy accent, "Vat do ve 'ave here. Looks like ve managed to finally capture you Max." The man said with evil delight. Kit grasped Blaike shoulder and pulled her up with him. The pain in his head was worse than ever. It made his vision hazy and his body unresponsive. "Looks like our leetle tracking devices worked vonderfally." The man stepped closer to Kit and Blaike. Kit pushed Blaike behind him, ready to defend first but the man didnt launch an attack. "It no vonder that you don't attack. You can hardly see me, ya?" He grinned again. "Those nano machines are excellent but the do cause nasty headaches, nightmares and pain. I suppose thats why we only put it in you to. Zey track you no matter vhere you are. The are hooked to your brains so that is the source of those nasty little headaches of yours. So sorry." Kit stepped back for a moment but the pulsation in his head only doubled each time the man spoke.
Theo whirled, pulling out two knives, holding one in each hand. "I think you should cure them now, Mr. I-can't-speak-English-without-sounding-like-an-idiot, before I kill you on the spot." "Ahahaha, you theenk you can keel me? That is very funny!" he waved a hand, and the flyboys around swarmed, approaching, but not actually attacking. It was a warning gesture. "I'm not afraid of you!" Theo yelled, taking a balanced stance.

Blaike brought her hands immediately to her head. It was pounding viscously, and the pain seemed to spread. Every time that guy spoke her head increased in pain. As if something was inside it trying to break out with every force possible. Her breathing quickened, and her fists clenched against her head. She forced her eyes opened and looked around but all the saw was the gleaming red eyes. Every time her own eyes connected with one of them, her headache seemed to erupt into even more painful spasms. She saw the tenseness of Kit and knew he was dealing with the same pain. They had been lead into a trap. The scientists knew they would try to find Max, they knew! No way Max would forgive them for this. Ever.
Scott raced to Kit and Blaike, and the scientist glared at him. "Okay, these people might be a little, or leetle in your language, strange dare I say to me, but that doesn't mean I'm not going to protect my flock at any costs," he snarled, widening his stance for a fight. He grabbed Kit's shoulder, a wary eye on the freak scientist, and shoved him away, doing the same with Kit. But it was like the scientist followed them. Scott broke out a sweat, and panted hard. It was like those eyes had an affect on his life.

Saturn saw the scientist and the weird robots. They creeped her out. She saw Max's gang...they were in trouble too! She flew up next to them."Bud, don't even think about going near them. And Dude...cut the stupid acc...."Saturn said as a robot appeared behind her. It tried to snap her neck, and another one had Angel. Saturn immediatly broke away."You wanna peice of this, you piece of crud?!"Saturn hollord. She Immediatly threw the thing that had her at the scientist and went for the one that had Angel. She was so angry...She ripped its head off and smashed it on the ground. She was NOT gonna be a weak pipsqueek now. "LET GO OF ANGEL!"Saturn roared as another one cought her. She immediatly punched it in the chest plate and sent its cicuts all over. She grabbed Angel while the others were fighting. "Max, take your flock and go!"Saturn cried as she gave angel to Max and plunged towards the scientist.
