Without further delaying, here's "Take it to the MAXimum level"

****carpe diem****

Zack peered around the side of a building, glaring into nothing. He then started running into the road. Running through puddles, sending water splashing everywhere as his heavy foot smacked into them. He ran as fast as he could, his black leather jacket sticking close to his upper body. He could feel water against his legs, as he ran the water splashed on his jeans, but that didn't matter. He then took cover against another building. He looked in every direction before peering around the corner. He saw the building the Crash, the place that Max introduced him too. He then saw Max walking out with a drunk Sketchy who said goodbye and stumbled on down the road. She was walking his way.

He watched her pass him then ran up and grabbed her mouth and her waist. Max shrieked against his hand and tried to break loose but Zack was a lot stronger and just pulled her closer into his chest before dragging her backwards. Soon once Zack thought they were both safe he let a stuggling Max go. Max threw her arm behind her in attempt to punch him. Already knowing she was gonna do that he caught her wrist. Max then spun around expecting Ames to be there. Her eyes softened as she saw her oldest brother standing in front of her.

"Zack." she said breathlessly but happily as she collapsed into his arms.

Zack wrapped his arms around her, rubbing her back, thanking God that she was ok. She let go and looked at him.

"What?" she asked. Zack looked at her confused.

"What?" Zack asked her. Max grinned.

"Zack, you never come back to Seattle unless something was up, now what?" Max asked.

Zack smiled as well and touched her cheek.

"Well I just wanted to see how you are." Zack said.

"Really?" she asked believing him.

Zack's smile faded and he dropped his hand.

"But not this time." he added.

Max dropped her mouth and playfully smacked him in the arm, as Zack was laughing. The two then started walking and Zack put his arm around her neck.

"Ah I'm just playing little sister, but there is something that was been up." Zack replied.

"What?" she asked.

"The past 3 months I have been literally running for my life. I mean we have always been doing that, but this time, every second he's there. Lydecker. And once they took be back." he answered.

Max stopped and looked at him.

"Are you ok?" she asked.

"Yes, but then again no. Max, something bad is going to happen, something REALLY bad." Zack explained.

Max looked at him a little scared.

"What is it?" she asked.

Zack looked staright into her eyes.

"They're coming after us Maxie. After us 12. They are creating this......thing." Zack tried to explian hestitating.

"What thing!?" Max demanded getting very scared.

"This transgenic, but no ordinary one, it has mixed portions of our DNA, the DNA of us 12, in it. I couldn't spy a lot on it or get too much information on it because I was concentrating on getting out of there, but all I do know is that it has my ability of fightening extra well and my strength." Zack began.

Max rolled her eyes, great she knew she was screwed, she could never take Zack down.

"Your ability to see like a cat in the dark and it doesn't need to sleep." Zack added.

Max shivered, that was bad news because this thing wouldn't need to sleep which ment more hours to chase them and unlike her, most needed sleep.

"And he is able to recover fastly like Zan, for example if you shot at him, his wound would recover within 5 minutes tops." Zack ended.

He saw the fear in her eyes.

"Zack, this isn't good." she said quietly.

"No Maxie, it's not at all." he agreed.

"Come on we have to go to Logan's now and tell him." she said grabbing his hand and started running but stopped once she realized he wasn't going anywhere.

"What?" she asked.

Zack got close to her and touched her face.

"Promise me, you won't leave my side, no matter what Maxie, if anything happened to you, if they got you, I would never forgive myself. NEVER, so we never seperate ok baby sister?" he asked sadly.

Max shook her head yes then huged him tightly.

"Let's go." she relplied.

Zack nodded and followed her running in the darkness.
