Erasers surrounded us at every angle. The six of us were back to back, trying to plan our 다음 move, trying to calculate their movements. Total huddled up close to 앤젤 in her arms. There were erasers in front of us, behind us, above us, any spot 당신 could think of. Flying was out of the question. If we attacked we would fail, there were too many. All of a sudden, I heard a scream. Not like a scream of fear, 더 많이 like a battle cry.
"KYAAAAA!!!!"
A girl burst through the erasers, kicking them left and right. She wore a white oversized tee shirt, with nothing on her feet. And I noticed, she had WINGS. She pulled me out of the pile of groaning erasers 의해 my wrist. We battled the remaining erasers together, side 의해 side.
Once they decided to retreat, we celebrated. I suddenly realized -
"Hey, thanks for saving our butts. We never caught your name," Iggy said.
"You 스톨, 훔친 the words right out of my mouth," I smirked.
"Name?" The girl said it like it was a question. "I don't... I don't have one."
"Wait, I remember you! You're the girl from the institute." Realization punched me in the face. Those calm eyes, sleek hair... I knew exactly who she was now!
"Yeah," she said, "I saw 당신 guys in trouble, and remembered 당신 saving me. Decided to return the favor."
"Now, about that name..." Nudge said, "Why don't we make one for you?"
"I... I kind of like that idea."
"How bout Wingy?" Fang joked. "I mean, 당신 have wings, so it fits perfectly!" He smirked.
"I..." She hesitated.
"Why don't we let her have a suggestion, Wingy," I said.
"I... I like... I like Evelyn...." She whispered.
"Why are 당신 whispering? That sounds like a great name!" 앤젤 was excited.
"I... My 프렌즈 have always just called me 저기요 you... Having a name will be so different."
"You'll be fine. Having a name is better than being 저기요 you. Why don't we get 당신 some clothes?" I pulled out Anne's credit card.
"I would 사랑 that," she said, noticably not stuttering this time.
We flew to the nearest clothing store. There were all different clothing items, although some were 더 많이 modest than others.
"I like these," Evelyn pulled out a pair of sneakers. They were black, with a neon green logo.
"Try them on, see if they fit!" Gazzy exclaimed. "I think those are really cool."
"Um, how do I tie them?" She looked at the laces with a puzzled expression on her face.
"Like this," Iggy bent down and tied both shoes in a perfect bow.
"But...aren't 당신 blind?" Again, she looked puzzled.
"He likes to be a show-off," I said, giggling.
"No, I just don't like being the kid who can't do anything but be blind," he pouted. "Why are 당신 so mean..."
"Geez, Ig, I was kidding," we both laughed. "You're such a Debbie downer."
"Look, they fit!" Evelyn stood up and did a little twirl. "I 사랑 them!"
"Alright, put them in the basket. Let's go look at some clothes," I said.
We left the store with three bags full of gym shorts, sneakers and t shirts. "Happy?"
"Yes! Oh my goodness, thank 당신 so much!"
"Happy to help," said Angel. "I'm hungry. Can we get food?"
"Yeah, sure. What kind of 음식 do 당신 like, Evelyn?"
"I'm not sure," She looked at the 거리 and kicked a stone. "Anything but 다람쥐 dogs."
Nudge had a disgusted look on her face. "Does this mean..."
"I was only kidding, Nudge," Fang said.
...
"I think."
"Ewwwwwwwww," Nudge stuck her tongue out.
"Ok guys, let's all get some GOOD food. There's a MacDoonalds across the 거리 from here."
"YAYYYYYY!!!" The flock cheered, including Evelyn. She started skipping across the street.
I sent the flock a look that meant, "I know she looks innocent, but remember, never let your guard down." They nodded the smallest, unnoticeable nod.
"Okay, let's go."
About an 시간 later, we came out with our stomachs full. Actually full. I didn't know that was possible!
"Ahhhh," Evelyn sighed. "That was the best thing I ever ate. Thank 당신 so much."
"Anytime," I said.
"Well, I should probably be on my way now. I wish I could stay with you, but people are depending on me."
"I totally understand," I answered. "Have a 안전한, 안전 flight."
"Aw, you're leaving?" The three younger flock members said in unison. Kinda creepy.
"I'm sorry, but I'll definitely visit," Evelyn said.
"Safe travels," Fang said.
"If we meet again, be sure to stay awhile." Iggy smiled.
"Thanks again. Byeeee!!!!"
I watched her fly into the bright blue void. Most people would've thought, "she was nice." But since I'm not most people, I thought, "I hope we didn't just help a traitor."
"I got mixed messages from her," 앤젤 said. "They were pretty hard to read."
"Well, she seemed like a trustworthy person," Gazzy looked at where she flew off to. He had a sad expression.
"You can never be so sure," I said. "C'mon. Let's go rest somewhere."
Epilogue
Evelyn flew until the flock was no longer in sight. She pulled a transmitter out of her pocket.
"I have their coordinates," she said. "I can tell 당신 where they'll be sleeping tonight."
"Thanks," Ari said. "Step one is complete. Now all I have to do is capture Max and kill the rest of the flock."
"KYAAAAA!!!!"

I know 당신 wanted Max and Fang to be together, and 당신 guys totally HATE Dylan (Don't worry, I do too), but maybe Fang was right and leaving the flock really did help. Max does 사랑 Fang, and Dylan is just too... Personal. He's like a complete opposite of Fang, but is being different a bad thing? And Maya and Fang don't like each other! (If you're still on Fang, oops! Spoiler moment!) Is it that hard to believe that there can be 프렌즈 in the world too?! ... Sorry, just expressing my inner thoughts here... :)
