A Maximum Ride Story

Escape

*chapter 2*
( Henry's POV)

we get to the door and i look at 7, man i hate to call her that. she looks worn out but she has a determined look on her face. she'll get out of here, i'll make sure of that. she's been here since, well, her entire life. i've been looking for the other children like her. to me they're known as subjects 5,6,8,9,10, and 11. (i'm just guessing that that's what they were called when they were in the school.)

we open the door and i peak out. it's all clear so i grab her hand and we start to run. but she stumbles a little. i look down at her.

"are you ok? do you want me carry you?" i ask her.

"no, i'm...i'm ok." she says back.

"get on." i say, bending down so she can climb on my back.

"i can walk." she says.'

"come on, get on." i say.

she must not of had the strength to fight with me because she climbed on. i expected more weight but she was really really light. i pick her up and start running. we come to the doors that leave the lab and it was trouble from there. there were guards. damn, i should've thought that part through.

they see us and start to come towards us. but then they flew backward and hit the wall and were knocked unconcious. and then 7 sighs.

"go, ill keep them away from us, as long as i can." she says.

so i keep going. oh, yea that little trick that she did. well that was teleconesis. she has that power. we go out yet another set of doors. but thank goodness, nobody was there. we were in a room. sort of like a lab.

but it was pitch black in here, so i had to look for the door out.

"what's that sound?" she asks.

"what sound? i dont hear anything." i say.

"let me down for a minute." she says.

i let her down and she walks over to a curtain. but she pulls it away and she reveals a cage. a cage with something in it. i walk over to it and see that it was supposed to be a kid. but it didn't look normal. the kid was laying on it's side. i look at 7 and see a tear run down her cheek. in all the time i've known her she has never once shed a tear until now.

"he's dying, henry. he's only a little kid and he's dying." 7 says.

i didn't know what to say. it was a sad sight to see. i lean down and see that he's crying.

"i'm sorry. i trully am sorry that i couldn't save you." i say while looking at him.

"he's says that it's ok. and that he just wants to have a name before he dies." 7 says.

"do you want me to name you?" i ask while looking at him.

" he says yes." 7 says.

"ok", i say, unlocking the cage,"i'll give you a name, as soon as we leave this place. you have to hold on for that long."

then i carefully pick him up. then i lean down and 7 climbs back up. they're both very light. i start to run again and go out yet another door. shit. there's more people. but before they can even see us, they're on the floor unconcious. we go out that door and we're outside. but the trip isn't over yet.

i run to where i parked my car and let 7 climb in, then i carefully slide the little boy in. i go around the car and climb in. just as i'm starting the car, we get surrounded by whitecoats. but i turn on the car and floor it anyway, i hit a few of them in the process. i keep going and i don't plan on stopping. we get out of the courtyard and onto the path.

then we get onto the road, and there are some whitecoats chasing us. shit.

"i got them, keep going." 7 says and while shes saying it two cars blow up.

and after about 5 minutes all the cars were gone and now we were on the open road.

"there's no more, we're ok." 7 says.

"good, how's the kid?" i ask.

"he's ok, for right now." she says.

"ok. i will name you." i say.

and continue driving.

(7's POV)

Henry stops the car and comes and gets the little boy out. then i climb out after. we're at a garden-type place.

"this is my own little garden. my parents are buried here. and well..." he says not wanting to continue, but i got it. he's going to bury the little boy here too.

we stop at a rock and he sits the boy down. then he knees down to the boy's eye level.

Henry looked at the boy and he looked like he was gonna cry. i heard him think the name. it was sweet.

he looked at the boy,

"Liam. i'll name you Liam." he said.

"th...thank you." the boy said.

"Liam, was going to be my little brothers name. he was killed when my parents were. i'm glad i was able to give the name to someone. and i'm glad it was you." Henry says.

Liam was smiling and then he just faded away. like that he was gone.

"you were a good kid you shouldn't have had the life you had. i'm sorry you were tortured like that. Good bye, Liam." I say.

" um, i should um, start digging." henry says and walks away, obviously crying.

about an hour later, we're back in the car.

"so where were the other bird kids?" i ask.

" Somewhere in california. trust me, I know where they are. just try to get some rest. we'll be there before you know it." Henry says.

so i close my eyes and before i knew it, i was sleeping.
