Maximum Ride's Big Chase

Part 2

Max's POV:

Beep Beep Beep Beep

"Ugh, shut up" I groaned.
When the annoying thing wouldn't leave me alone I tried slamming my hand on where I thought it was, but I was met with the hard surface of my bedside table.

"Ow.." I mumble into my pillow, while the annoying noise coming from my alarm clock still continued. I lifted my head from my pillow only to be blinded by sunlight, once my eyes adjusted to the light I looked for my alarm clock. Which just so happened to be out of arms reach on my windowsill. How the hell did it get there... oh, yeah that's right, I put it there last night so I would be forced to get up.

Sighing grudgingly I got up and shut my alarm clock off. Now that I'm up, might as well get ready for the day. I threw on a dark green V-neck, and black shorts.

"Wherethehellaremy... oh there they are" my green vans that matched my shirt. I grabbed my phone and started to grab my keys when my phone blew up, not literally, I had 27 messages and 4 miss calls. Crap, I forgot to text mom and Nudge when I got here. I quickly sent them a text saying 'I'm alive. sorry I didn't text you, I got busy.... I'll text you later.' Now that that's over with I need to go to work.

I'm a little jittery as I sit on the subway waiting for it to be my stop. What can I say, I'm nervous.

We're about five minutes away from my stop when some chick, who looks like she's some sort of Barbie with all her makeup on, bumps into this innocent girl, who had been sitting quietly across from me.

"Oh my god! You filthy bitch, watch where you move. Do you know how long it takes to get myself to look this great!" Demands Red head wonder, as I choose to call her because her hair is almost ruby red.

The girl, who had just been starring wide eyed at her through this, looked around her to see if she had mistaken whom red head wonder was talking to, but when she realized there was nobody else near her, she looked even more lost and confused as she did before.

"Me?" She asked her," Yes you, who else would I be talking to, your as dumb as you look" Red head wonder sneered at her.

'Time to take action' I thought to myself," considering the fact that you have so much makeup on you look like a clown, I wouldn't be talking" I piped up from where I was.

She spun around to give me a... is that a glare? Yep it's a glare. I glared back and she flinched. Ha, That's what I thought.

"Well some of us actually like to look good throughout the day, and by looking at you it seems like you don't know what that means." She snarked.

"Oh hunny, I would never want to look like a low class slut," I declare sweetly, which she does, she's wearing a short red dress that almost doesn't cover her butt, and is showing way to much cleavage for my liking, matched with black heels.

By that time we had pulled up to my stop, so I bid her goodbye with," The trash gets picked up tomorrow, be ready" and left her fuming on the subway.

"Nice one, she had it coming" Someone commented, I spun around, startled, only to see Mr. Tall-dark-and-handsome behind me.

"What are you, stalking me or something?" I demanded, "Nope" was his simple reply. "Well it sure does seem like it" I said, then spun around and continued walking to work.

"If you must know, I'm going to work" he answered my question from before and caught up me. My curiosity spiked and I caved into it," Oh, where do you work"

"Who's stalking now?" He teased, while giving me a look I couldn't comprehend. I rolled my eyes and gave him a smirk, " I'm an FBI agent," he stated after a short pause.

"WHAT?" I exploded, he looked at me, confused about my sudden outburst, "You mean, were going to work at the same place!" I continued, he got this weird glint in his eyes that made him look even hotter. Wait, Pretend I didn't think that. "Well it seems like we will be seeing a lot more of each other," he chuckled.

We rounded a corner and came upon the FBI headquarters. "Looks like we're here" dark and mysterious pointed out.

"Thank you captain obvious," I exaggerate "Your welcome lieutenant sarcasm," he replies as we walk in.

"Fang! Oh and who is this?" A tall man with blonde hair and pale blue eyes asked dark and mysterious, who I now know as Fang.

I answered for him," I'm Maximum Ride. Call me Max" He nodded," I'm Iggy, so your the newbie?" I raised my eyebrows and sighed,"Yes, I'm the newbie, don't let me catch you calling me that again, or you'll be six feet under." I threatened, then questioned ," What kind of names are Fang and Iggy?"

Fang chuckled while Iggy shrunk back and answered me," Yeah, his real name is Nick and mine is James, but we go by Fang and Iggy." I just nodded.

I was about to ask them where the office was when I got interrupted. "Who might this be Iggy, Fang" a man who seemed of higher power asked.

"Chief, this is Maximum Ride, The new... girl?" Iggy tapered off and changed what he was going to say after he seen my glare. Hmph, he better be afraid.

"Ah, Maximum. Nice to meet you. I'm Felix, Felix Holden." He joyfully greeted me and held his hand out for me to shake. I obliged," it's nice to me you too, and please, call me Max."

Yes, I can be civil when I want, or need to. Fang and Iggy looked surprised, I just smirked at them before following Felix into his office. It was surprisingly clean, his desk had only a few papers laying on it.

He turned around and we studied each other, he had ash brown hair and medium brown eyes, he let out a chuckle and commented," I like you already, you have this look in your eyes, like your determined to do anything and everything, and also not give up on what your doing."

I grinned and replied," looks like we're going to get along great Felix. When does the action start." He full out laughed this time," You're eager too." He walked around me, opened his office door, and called Fang in.

When Fang joined us, Felix told us," Since y'all both seem aquatinted already. Max, your going to be partners with Fang. He'll show you around, teach you the lingo of things, and you'll go together when there's an assignment."

I looked at Fang in shock. Could this be luck, or karma?
