Project Jupiter- Chapter One

***Jupiter's POV***

About an hour later I was dropped in the woods, about two miles away from the targets. The Erasers that had brought me here left as quickly as they came, leaving me to find the Flock. "Great," I mumbled to myself. "Better get started..."

***at the Flock's home***

"Morning Max." Gazzy said as he entered the kitchen.

"Morning Gazzy." Max frowned seeing the almost-empty fridge. 'Wish the food fairies had come' she thought, pulling out a few cans to see what she could do with them. "What's for breakfast?" "It's...er...a surprise!" Seeing as se had absolutely no idea, it was the best answer. Just then, a disheveled-looking Iggy stumbled into the room.

"Morning Ig."

"Bite me." He said sleepily, flopping onto the couch with perfect aim.

Max rolled her eyes and turned back to making breakfast. But she turned around quickly when he sensed it. Fang was standing in the corner, looking as casual as he ever could.

"Fang! Will you QUIT that?!" She said in frustration. "Quit what? Breathing?" He replied, feigning innocence. "Make some noise when you move! You startled me!" Max said, getting a smirk from Fang. Iggy got back up from his place on the couch, not hitting anything (he's blind, guys! This is seriously impressive) on his way up. "I'll make eggs," he said, still sounding tired. "I don't want Max to burn our last frying pan."

Max groaned and glared at him...before remembering he couldn't see her. Sighing, she said "I'm going to go wake up Nudge and Angel."

Max threw open the door to the girl's room. "Hey sweetie, up and at 'em!" Nudge groaned and rolled over, covering her head with a pillow. "Another day. Get up and face it," Max said, shaking her shoulder. After making sure Nudge wasn't going back to sleep, she pulled back the section of curtains revealing a small bed made in the corner. "Hey, you've already got dressed!" "Yep!" Angel replied in her sweet little-girl voice. Sweet little Angel was only six, with pale blonde hair and big, bright blue eyes. Gazzy and Angel were the only biological siblings in the Flock. Max smiled. "Alright then. Come on." Angel followed Max into the kitchen, where Iggy had made eggs and set them out for everyone (Like I said, he's BLIND!). Maybe it should bother Max that a blind guy four months younger than her could cook better than she could, but it really didn't. Guess the scientist hadn't programmed enough girlyness into her genes for that. "I want to go pick strawberries today! They're ripe now!" Angel said excitedly. "Okay, we'll all go," Max announced. "How's that?"
