Mixed Emotions
Hiya people, let me introduce myself. My name's Maximum Ride, but most people call me Max, I'm a 14 year old Avian-American and I'm currently on the run with my family, who are not technically related to me by blood but they're still definitely my family.
"Avian-American?" I hear you ask. Yes, you see, the reason I'm on the run is because I'm not exactly human. In fact I'm only actually 98 human and the other 2? Bird genes. The same goes for my family, Fang (14), Iggy (14), Nudge (11), Gazzy (8) and Angel (6). The six of us make up what we call our 'flock'. You might think that bird genes come with advantages and it does. All of us have totally amazing wings and yep, you guessed it we can fly but the thing is, that doesn't change the fact that the downsides of bird genes are worse than you could ever imagine.
You see, the evil mad scientist that made us this way (the white coats) are the most horrible people you could ever imagine. All six of us grew up in cages having cruel, inhumane tests inflicted on us, day in, day out. That is until one day one of the whitecoats, who turned out to be my Dad, helped us escape. He, Jeb that is, looked after us and taught us how to defend ourselves but two years after we escaped he disappeared. We were pretty sure he was dead but since then we found out that he actually went back to the school (the place where we were kept in the cages) and betrayed us, but anyway, a lots happened since then and I'll never forgive him for what he did but lets just say I'm on my way to trusting him again. Maybe. So, after Jeb had gone we spent another two years on our own until one of the flock, Angel, got captured by erasers (half wolf-half human, and deadly creatures created, like us, by the school) and taken to the school. We got her out again but since then we've been on the run. It's not easy but it's better than cages. A lot of stuff has happened to us while we've been on the run, but if you want to know that then maybe you should have tried reading the first four books in our series.

A/N Okay so this is my first fanfiction so feel free to tell me how bad it is. But please, if your going to criticise me please make it constructive. This is just the prologue but the story will only have about two chapters after the prologue and maybe an epilogue. It's gonna be about the relationship between Max and Fang and the confusion they both have over each others feelings. So, if your interested in reading it the press the little purpley button down there. Go on, you know you want to!
