Hi. My name is Maximum (Max) Ride. Welcome to MY nightmare. The flock, (Me, Angel, Fang, Nudge, Gazzy, Violet, and Mya), are at the seriously HATED lab, which we call School. This is our story.
We have a plan. Angel came up with it. ''Max, Josh is coming with other white coats and a few wolfites.'' P.S. ''Josh is the person to go to for any.........'enchantments' as he says. He's helped us live through our 17 years here at the school. Wolfites are half wolf, half human. They LOVE to kill experiments, like us.'' ''What!'' I said. ''Hey, look who's still in the cage? Max, the invincible, in a cage. Never thought I'd see you like this, Max.'' ''Ari. I'm surprised; they let you out of the cage? To see us, bust this joint? They're getting soft, like you.'' Ari showed his most evil smile before he pushed my cage so hard, I thought he was trying to knock me over. ''HEY!! LEAVE MAX ALONE, YOU BIG, FAT, HAIRY ANIMAL!!'' Fang. (Sigh), he's so hot when he's protecting me. I love him. Scratch that last part.
''ARI! Leave them alone! What have I told you about hurting the Subject Eleven's? I apologize, Max, if Ari hurt you at all.''''Hi, Josh.'' ''Dr. Edwards! Are the failures ready for survival tag? We have to get rid of them before... just get rid of them'' ''Max, take this. It'll help you in the maze.'' ''What is it? What does it do? Why are you giving it to me?'' I asked, full of curiosity. ''Dr.Edwards! Take the dark one out, NOW!!'' Once Fang was out of his cage, he opened 1,000,000,000 cans of whop butt action on those 25 white coats.
Then, Fang looked at me. Guess what? He smirked. AT ME!! But right as he opened my cage for me to get out and help the others, Ari let out such a muffled scream, almost none of us herd it. Almost no one. When we all looked over to where Ari was standing, he was falling on his side, like he was about to die. And that's when to whole place went up in fireworks.
''Report?'' I managed, trying not to hack up a lung. ''Alive.'' That answer came so slowly from my gang; I thought they were... never mind. ''Let's get out of here, .K.'' Nothing. Zip. No answer. Did I really say it? Or did I think it? I looked around at everybody else. I screamed. Every single body was laded over a piece of concrete, dead. Yes, you heard me right......Dead. If you don't get it, reread it.
''MAX! WAKE UP!'' My eyes flashed open as I sat up to get air. ''Geese, I thought you were going to sleep all day,'' Mya smiled warmly at me. ''Same dream again?'' she asked. ''Heck yeah, but even longer than last time.'' I said, adrenalin still having its icy grip on my heart, again. ''Come on, let's go get some chow.'' As I walked down stairs behind Mya, Fang looked up and gave me the' What the HELL, I'm going to kill you for sleeping in, again!' look. 'Dream, again.' I mouthed to him. ''MAX! You're up!'' ''Oh, no! DON'T YOU DA-'' ''What have you been eating? Boulders?'' ''Cake, brownies, cookies, donuts, ice cream...'' ''Anything HEALTHY? Like, oh, I don't know... hamburgers'?'' ''That to, and salads.'' That's my Gazzy, (a.k.a., Gasman, DON'T ASK WHY.) 'Can I go wake up Angel and Violet? PLEASE??'' Gazzy asked, giving us his best puppy dog eyes+ Bambi lip, again, don't ask. ''NO!!'' Fang, Mya, and I said in unison. ''Here, I'll go wake them up for ya'll.'' Mya said, not offering, unlike last time. ''O.K., just don't forget how to wake Violet, she can kick your butt if you wake her wrong,'' I warned her, hoping she would remember her training about waking violet up.
''YO, VILOET. Breakfast's ready. If you want any you better get down stairs now!'' ''Angel, sweetie, time for chow. Angel? WHERE ARE YOU?'' ''TAKE THIS, YOU INTRUDER!!'' ''Angel, NO!! Don't!'' Meanwhile, downstairs, ''Did you hear that screaming?'' ''Mya!!''
Fang and I said together. When we reached the door to the girl's room, Fang, of course, being heroic, kicked the door open, to reveal the most terrifying scene we had seen that month. Mya, knocked-out, was on the floor, with one wing showing. ''Mya! NO, NO, NO, NO, NO! Angel! What did you hit her with?'' ''Well... the lamp. I thought she was ... one of ... them. I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to!'' Angel yelled, just at the point of crying. ''Angel! She was just trying to wake you up for breakfast! (Sigh), just go get dressed, while Fang and I fix up Mya.'' Fang picked up Mya like she was a sack of feathers. Feathers. Crap! ''Yo, Fang, would you mind if I went to stretch me wings for a minute? I'll be fast.'' I asked Fang, once we were down the hall. ''Max. Come on. We have to take care of Mya first,'' Fang said, giving me that 'Don't even think about it' look. ''Unless, you want her out of the flock? Don't you?'' ''Fang! How could you say that? (Sigh) You know what? You can be flock leader. I'm out. Good-Bye, Fang.''
''I can't believe Fang! Saying that I wanted Mya out of the group! Unbelievable! I'm never going back. Ever!'' I thought to myself. ''Max! Wait up!'' I swerved to see, (who?), flying after me? Go ahead. Guess. I dare you. Angel. Not Fang ''Angel! Go home, I'll be back soon!''
"No you won't!! I heard you! You thought ' I am never coming back, Ever!!" I stopped flying. Well, I was "flying", but I was just moving around in small circles. I hung my head like a beaten animal. Pun intended. Not!! " Angel, I'm just mad right now. Please leave me alone." As I turned to leave, Angel flashed an image in my head. P.S." Angel can do stuff with people's minds. It's kinda creepy sometimes." The image, Fang. Tearing up the entire house like a mad man. 'Why?' You might ask? Because I left him, and the flock. Angel broke the silence at last. "He's been looking for you since you left home ,Max. You have to come back home. " These things, the torn up house, Angel starting to cry, the crazy Fang, they all tore at my stone cold heart, turning it soft like cotton candy. I sighed. "Alright. I'll come home."
