What we normally do . . .

You’re not saying anything or asking about us so I thought how bout I show you what we bird kids get up to every day, more or less.

6h00: My shift ends, I violently wake Mark and then the rest after a well deserved night’s sleep, or being look out (we take shifts to be on lookout)
7h00: personal hygiene, aka Glaice hogs stream and attacks anyone who comes close (she knows it when you sneak up on her, mind reader remember)
8h00: rest of us gets chance at stream.
8h10: Lily, Glaice and Em’s turn for Breakfast (we love their turn, they can actually cook) I always start the fire (that’s the only way I get out of breakfast duty, that and the others took a vote on me being cook and decided it’d be better if I just start the fire, what I didn’t know eggs weren’t’ supposed to be green, in one of doctor susses rimes he talks about green eggs and ham! and don’t even ask how I got the eggs green).
8h40: we eat and clear everything.
9h00: we discuss everything we are going to do the day.
9h59: Erasers attack, you can almost set a watch to them falling in
10h10: wash up after attack, see what damage the Erasers did.
10h20: pick up the pieces of our broken lives and move on.
10h30: move away from stinking Erasers and make a new plan for the day.
11h00: fly on to new destination.
11h15: fly with hawks and it is just as awesome as Max described it in the book (that book I actually found a while back after we escaped, the white coats didn’t want us to get any ideas from Max so the book was banned in the school)
13h00: buy food with the money I nabbed from Joe (To Joe, it your reading this you wanted to keep the little detail ‘bout you being a white coat a secret)
13h25: eat food
13h40: we look for an internet café and update the blog, I go on facebook and work on future blog posts while the others usually play games, surf the web or make the internet café guy angry with us.
15h15: move on to a new place, bird kids gotta keep on the move.
17h00: set up ‘camp’ outside new town in a wilderness place, everyone talks about whatnot, we work on whatever our heart’s desire.
20h00: we start to make a fire and catch up on everything we’ve been up to and roast stuff we found on sticks (not going into detail with that)
21h35: everyone drifts of into sleep and the first person goes on guard duty.

Here’s a little inside info on what we keep ourselves busy with till we hit the sack at night.
Zander: well he trains a lot so he’s usually of in the woods somewhere lifting rocks or whatever, no one ever goes with him when he trains, he’s like a drill sergeant, and I actually discovered this the hard way don’t ask.
Me (Lex): I usually just lounge around with Glaice talking about stuff and keeping an eye on the others, or I write things in a little book, stuff I want to add to the blog and things like that.
Jay: Jay’s usually found next to the stream swimming with T.K and Mark and working on his power over water.
Glaice: she’s usually with me talking and sometimes she’s writing things in her own little book, she’s very protective over the book so I don’t know what it’s about.
Markus: he’s of swimming with T.K and Jay or when he’s not swimming I can swear he’s looking at himself in the reflection of the water, sometimes he helps Lily with fighting techniques.
T.K: well he’s usually swimming or doing stuff with Jay (they are getting along swimmingly, hehe, they’re like long lost brothers or something) when he’s not doing that he likes to show everyone all the things he collected, shells, bottle caps, rocks, lots more, he carries everything with him in a bag, Zander thinks it’s a stupid thing to weighs himself down with all the stuff but he likes it, even though he can’t see the stuff, he’s really proud of his little collection.
Lily: She’s usually sketching away in her sketch book or she just walks around with Em, exploring everything, from bugs to flowers. Or she trains with Mark.
Em: she’s usually tagging along with Zander or one of the other older kids, or she’s exploring everything with Lily.

Jay's post . . .

Hey, well this isn’t Lex posting this, it’s me Jay.

Okay so am, I don’t know how Lex does this but anyway she’s caught some weird bug and now she’s sick as a dog, no offence Zan.
Like I said she’s sick so she asked me to just post something to say she’s not going to be posting for a while. After we got back from the mission she’s been telling about she just got sick, and it’s bad. At first it’s only been sneezing and then some coughing, now she can’t even walk. Okay the walking bit can maybe also be caused by the Eraser who nearly made sushi out of her.
Okay so here’s the story. Like always the Erasers attacked and we’ve known Lex wasn’t feeling good so Zan asked her if she’ll be able to fight, as stubbornly stupid as Lex is she said she’ll be up for the fight. She took out one Eraser but then one snuck up on her and knocked her out, we all were busy with our own fights so we couldn’t go and help her, Zan still blames himself for what happened and Glaice thinks she should have seen it but she didn’t. Anyway so the Eraser took out all his anger on Lex’s unconscious body, and when we finally got to her and dragged the Eraser of off her she was badly injured. Her arms broken, wing dislocated, few broken ribs, badly gashed leg, her lip was split, and her one eye swollen shut, she looked bad. On top of her injuries she was still sick and had a fever. She got too again and said there’s no way we’re taking her to a hospital, so were hiding out in a cave we found outside a town, not telling you where. I still say we have to take Lex to a hospital but she says it’s too risky, Zan won’t take her to the hospital ‘cause she threatened him if he takes her, even when she’s badly injured and sick she’s still causing pain on people, anyway T.K has been doing his best on healing her but she doesn’t want him coming near her with his ‘magic spit’ as she calls it (and yes, T.K and Dylan do have that in common, weird I know, but doctor God aka Dr Hans Gunter-Hagen had a finger in the pie at the place T.K was made, before he was put in the school Alex was in), so her leg’s still pretty open and disgusting looking, at least her wing is back in its place and her arms are both in slings, it’s really funny to see, she’s really mad about it and threatens to escape and attack the nearest Eraser, or just settling on Zander.
Anyway along with the Lex being hurt and sick part we also found out about Zander and Em being ultimate Erasers, he finally told us one night, he said he couldn’t live with the secret so he just came clean, but we don’t care what he is, he’s our flock leader and that’s how it’s going to stay, so now his new nick name (given to him by Lex) is wolf boy or something like that.
And just for the record, Lex says I’m emo, I am not emo, I can just control the emotions of others and I like to wear tight jeans, and I don’t talk that much, but I repeat I AM NOT EMO!
So in short our lives are a little messed up at the moment, Lex sick, we’re hiding out, and Zander’s an Eraser.
By Jay?
PS I know she didn't finish our story but she gave me orders to post the last piece, yea she's bossy, so here is the last post on that mission, and yea well something els I found on her precious memory stick named Edward (I don't get it either, who names a memory stick Edward?) So just read it or whatever and expect a little less action on the blog.
PSS know what, I can't find the post she said was on Edward so I'm just going to go put on the other thing she wanted to put up, the stroy will be added as soon as I can find it.

hey guys, wow ya I'm adding post after post today, but anyway here's an awesome pic of me one of our fans from South-Africa drew of me, the girls name is Annelien Lourens thanks girl I love it!

~Lex~
Okay guys I’m really sorry, I made a blooper ‘bout our ages, I’m still 13 years old, and weird enough Mark was the one who discovered my little blooper, being a Narcissist doesn’t mean you can’t do math apparently. Anyway here’s our real ages, Glaice and Zan are both 14 years old, T.K, me, Jay and Markus are all 13 years old, later this year (check our B-Days) me, Jay and Mark will turn 14, Lily is 11, and Em is still 5 but end of the month she’ll be 6 (reminds me please help me think of a gift for the little girl, I’m not an expert on gift giving, so comment below please!)
Again don’t blame my math, I’m just a girl who never went to school who made a little mistake, so forgive me, or I’ll fly over and kick your butt!
~Lex, the 13 year old bird kid and not the 14 year old bird kid~

Finally the final part, part 3

You should count yourselves lucky, I’m sick as a dog and I’m still posting stuff for ya here, anyway up until now we didn’t know bird kids could like get a cold or even get sick from normal human stuff, and no I don’t think I have the bird flu, we already discussed this on Facebook. But ya anyway I’m sick, I keep coughing like crazy, my nose is working overtime with the mucus evacuations, my whole body’s aching, and I look like crap.
So here is part 3 on our mission the final post on it, enjoy.

Finally the final part, part 3

On the plane we ate like pigs, again. The stewardess’ (that’s what they call the woman in high heels waiter people) handed out toys and stuff and were creepy as heck with those constant smiles. Em was enjoying it a lot seeing as she was flying without someone carrying her, I also saw she, Alex and Lily were getting along, I was relaxing, there’s no worries of Erasers flying by and kicking us out of the air, I enjoyed the whole flying without flying part, only part I didn’t like was all the other people in the plane and the fact that it was an enclosed space and I didn’t feel the familiar rush of wind on my face.
“Glad to see you’re enjoying new things Lex.” Joe said as she came to sit next to me on the open isle seat. I glared at her and continued looking out of the window, as if she never came and interrupted me.
“You should be open to new things, you remind me a lot of someone I know.” She continued, she’s probably talking about herself, usually when grownups talked about people reminding them of people, it’s themselves, I thought to myself sarcastically.
“You remind me about this girl who narrates a book, she’s also strong willed and doesn’t back off, she also has a sweat tooth, mad about choc chip cookies, I think you know who I’m talking about.” She smiled at me as I turned around to look at her, she got me interested.
“Yah, Maximum Ride, how do you know her?” I looked at her, she had a poker face on. (Man I hate that song, it always gets stuck in my head, aw man it got stuck!)
“I met her once, only briefly, she’s really stubborn and follows her own head, but she’s a great leader nether the less, but she too had her weaknesses, know yours.” She said and got up and moved back to her own seat, Glaice came back from the bathroom place and went to sit next to me.
“You and Joe talking more?” She asked.
“Jip, sort of, not that it means anything.” I said and stared back outside the window, my brain buzzing.
The flight was way shorter than if we would have flown with our own wings. But it was still a long flight, think cross country, not fun, there’s only so much you can do in a plane. We landed at the place I’m still not telling you about and Joe hired a car.
This car thankfully was built for a huge family so we all fitted in without it being illegal. The sky was nice and blue, just like the ocean, but it was starting to become night quickly so Joe booked us all in at some hotel overlooking the ocean, and a beautiful sunset.
The others were on the bed, watching TV or something, while Zander was standing outside looking out at the ocean, I went to stand next to him.
“What are you looking at?” I asked as I took my place next to him the sun was still a few inches away from the horizon.
“The ocean, you know I love it, ever since I was a kid, one of my first memories was of my dad and me walking on the beach. We had a house next to the ocean, a part where no other people went ‘cause the water was to cold there.” He smiled and stared out at the ocean, a few people walked along the shore.
“Wow, anyway you want to go and take a walk?” I finally managed to ask him awkwardly, he agreed and in a few moments we were on the beach, walking barefoot in the sand.
“So how old were you when you were taken, you talked about a memory, I don’t even have any of before the school.” I said fiddling with my hands in my hoody’s pockets.
“About 5 I guess, that’s probably why I’m bigger, being older when they started with the experiments and all.” He said and kicked at a rock on the sand, it didn’t hurt him like it would have hurt anyone ells.
He stopped and picked up a shell, a pretty little swirly one, what I’m a girl, girls are entitled to a little girly thoughts.
“Lex, can I ask you something?” I looked at his eyes, he looked serious and deep, I thought not to ruin this moment with a stupid reply so I nodded.
He took my hand and placed the shell in my hand.
“If something happens, and I’m not able to be leader of this flock . . . I want you to take over.” He said, his voice cracking under the pressure of his words.
“Su-“ I began to say before he placed his finger in front of my mouth, for once I didn’t care that much.
“Wait before you agree, there’s a condition . . . you have to be willing to do anything for the safety of the flock, no matter what.” I looked up into his face, he didn’t let anything go.
“You know I’ll do anything.” I said staring into his dark eyes, the sun was almost completely gone.
“Anything, no matter what?” He asked taking both my hand into his rough hands, the shell was still snugly in my right hand. I nodded, and didn’t realize we were so close until Mark’s voice snapped us back to reality.
“Lex! Zan! Where are you guys, Joe bout pizza!” We quickly let go of each other’s hands and ran back to the hotel place’s deck, the shell safely in my pocket.
That night we didn’t talk about the me being flock leader thing, we just ate pizza and enjoyed the starry night outside on the deck, Joe had the decency not to worm herself into our flock moment, she sat inside in front of the TV eating her vegan pizza while watching American Idols.
After the pizza we all were sleepy and went to sleep, our clothes and shoes on, just in case.
The next morning hit us all like a nightmare.
I opened my eyes but still couldn’t see anything, there was a bag over my head, I tried moving my body but I was tied up and probably lying on the ground.
“Zander, Jay? Where are you guys, you okay?” I said calmly, as I didn’t sense anyone in the room other than bird kids, I heard someone struggling.
“Define okay?!” I heard Zander say sarcastically, he sounded tired, has probably been struggling against the ropes for a while now.
“I’m okay under the circumstances. Lex, Joe probably drugged us last night with the pizza.” Jay said calmly and someone nudged my leg, I knew it was Jay.
“I’m okay too thank you very much for asking, and yes this is my first time being tied up in my sleep with a bag over my head!” Glaice yelled out, clearly this was her first time.
“Was getting to you, BFF.” I said to reassure her.
“Report!” Zander ordered like a true leader, how did he even think I was going to become as good a leader as he is.
“I’m okay.” I heard Lily squeak from somewhere above my head.
“Me to Sarge!” Mark said.
“Present!” Glaice confirmed she was here.
“You already know I’m here!” Jay said calmly.
“Same here!” I said out loud.
“I’m here, ah-ah-tjoooooee!” Alex confirmed with a sneeze, and continued “Zan can you please move your head away from my face, remember I’m allergic to you dude.”
“I’m here!” T.K said and after him it was quiet, we didn’t hear Em, or the traitor ‘mom’ Joe.
“Em, EM! Where are you, EM!” Zander yelled out, I hoped she was save somewhere hiding in a closet or something.
“Stop yelling freak!” We all instantly knew that voice could only come from an Eraser, the situation can’t get any worse.
“Thank you for coming, I found these kids here, I was on vacation and just saw them flying in when everyone was asleep!” I heard her voice but it was hard to swallow, Joe had abandoned us for the second time in our lives. “Remember don’t damage them, the institute can still use them, I suggest you take them to the Gulf plant, it is secure isn’t it?” She went on, turning the jagged knife in my back. I was stupid to have trusted her.
“Yes doctor, it is secure, we’ll be taking them there strait away. We’re sorry this ruined your vacation doctor Parker.” The Eraser apologized.
“She’s no doctor, she’s a back stabbing excuse for a human being!” I yelled out in frustration and got a boot in my stomach, the wind whooshed out of me instantly, I was beside myself with anger but could do nothing, I even tried burning threw the bonds with my fire but it didn’t work, high-tech stuff.
“Leave her alone! She’s speaking the truth mutt, that is a-“ I heard Jay yell out but he too got a kick.
Zander too tried but even before he could say something I heard him being kicked.
“Rides here, knock ‘em out!” I heard another Eraser yell from another room, suddenly I heard them grabbing each one of the flock and doing who knows what, then I felt a big hand grab onto me, then another hand and I felt a needle going into my arm, my body went numb and I drifted off into la-la land.

Guess I lied too, there is another post after this one on our mission, this isn’t the final one, so read on, and don’t trust people, they tend to stab you in the back when you least expect them to. And Joe if you’re reading this I’m talking to you.
