{Idea from Maximum Ride, but I've changed a whole bunch of stuff, and the storyline works differently} The world is ending, and 99% of the Earth’s population may die! There’s only one person that can stop it. Jannice is 16 and just a normal girl. 98% normal. The other 2% is avian. She's grown up as a hostage at a lab in Colorado where geneticists have experimented on her and her 6 friends. But now that they've escaped, there's one easy task. Just one. Then they're free. Jannice just has to save the world. Her righthand man Liam was created to support her, and Lily was created to be her guide. And Harry, Niall, Louis, and Zayn? They were created to help. But everything's going wrong. They keep getting followed, everyone seems to be an Extenguisher, the flock splits, and Lily has predicted Liam's death! And Niall's blindness isn't helping either. Even with newfound powers, how can 7 fugitives save the planet? And are two romances blooming? Will the flock save the world, stop the 99% plan, and be free forever; or will they be retired? ========== I've been doing everything I can to keep the flock safe-how could I be on THEIR side?! A soft knock cam on the door. "Jannice, you OK?" came Liam's voice. Tear ran down my face and I didn't answer. "I'm coming in" I heard the door open. "NO!" I cried, but he ignored it and sat on the bed. "What's up?" he asked, staring at me as I lay at his feet. I knew I could tell him, if anyone. "I saw me in the mirror...as an Extenguisher, but when I felt my skin, it was just skin. Liam?" "HM?" he stroked my wet hair soothingly. "If...if I ever went bad, promise me youll protect he flock...from me" His eyes grew. "I-I promise..." "Thank you" my voice cracked. "And you'll be the leader?" "Sure" his face looked concerned. "I just can't see it" I took a deep breath. "Me neither, but whatever happens" he arose and knelt down beside me. "We'll be fine" he pecked my forehead and walked out.
