I don't own Maximum Ride. I actually haven't read the books in a couple of years, but I found this in the deepest darkest part of my note book and figured I would continue it... Enjoy.
She glared at the people she had once called her family. She had raised those ungrateful little kids and blind bird-boy. Jeb crossed his arms over his chest and huffed. The noise just irritated Max even more. Finally, all of her bubbling anger poured out.
"Fine, you don't want me?" She spat. "Then I am gone." Angel smiled at Max, receiving razor sharp glares in return. "Adios." She unfurled her creamy wings and did a nose dive, disappearing from the sight of the Flock, her family. The dark and slender shadow in the corner huffed, pinching the bridge of his nose.
"I am going with her." The shadow stated. All eyes turned to him, wide with shock. The devil with angel eyes shot him a pleading look.
"No, Fang, stay." Fang swayed for a minute and then looked out the door. The woman he loved was nothing but a speck in the distance. His heart tugged, pulling towards her. He glared at the small child as she attempted to 'persuade' him to stay.
"That isn't gonna work on me." He glared at his Flock one last time. "Think long and hard about what you have just done." With that, the shadow of a man jumped off the side of the house, following Max.
It was a minute before anyone said anything. Everyone stared at one another, having no idea what they are going to do now.
"Oh my gosh, what have we done?" Nudge blurted out. Everyone only stared at one another, wondering the same question. Angel smiled, triumphantly at getting rid of their leader and co-leader.
"Well, we need a plan." Angel said, imitating Max the best she could. It was Iggy that looked at her first, his head turned slowly to face her.
"You did this. You wanted Max and Fang gone, that way you could lead." He hissed at her. He shot up from his seat and began to yell. "You are a selfish little bitch, Angel. You might only be 7 but that doesn't change the evil that rots in the very core of you. You only care about your own personal benefit! Have you ever thought once how this would affect the rest of us? You knew Fang would follow Max. All of us knew that, yet we let him go! What are we going to do for protection, our best fighters just flew off!" Iggy screamed at her, shaking a little. "You are selfish, Ange." He finally slumped down in a chair, head resting in his hand.
"Angel…" Nudge looked at her, lost for words. Gazzy just looked at her and shook his head. Iggy stood up and grabbed his backpack off the floor.
"I am leaving too. It is about time we all just went our own ways." With that the blind bird boy disappeared into the distance heading towards the west coast. Nudge nodded, and followed suit, but flying in the other direction, towards New York.
"Looks like it is just us." Jeb said, left with the explosive expert, a demonic child, and Max's perfect other half (The one she didn't want.)
10 years later.
Max, now 25 years old, chased after the naked child. She smiled a little, grabbing at the squealing 4 year old. The little girl huffed, shooting her mother her bambi eyes. She sighed and pulled up the underwear on the small child.
"But… I don't want 'lothes." The child pouted, folding her little arms over her chest.
"Blaze, are you causing problems for Mommy?" A deep voice asked from the doorway.
"DADDY!" The girl, Blaze, toddled over to her father with out stretched arms. The young man with long dark hair picked up his child and raised an eyebrow at her.
"Where are the rest of your clothes?" The man, Fang, asked his daughter. The small kid shrugged her shoulders.
"I know know." He words ran together slightly. Fang nodded, and set his daughter down. He smiled slightly at his wife as she struggled more with the child than he ever did. She huffed as she got her pants on. She chucked her shirt at her father and growled "You dress her." With that she left the room and sat down at the dining room table, going through bill after bill. Finally she stumbled across a handwritten letter addressed to her and Fang. She frowned and opened the letter.
Hi Max, Hi Fang,
It is Nudge, well Monica Morgansten, but I guess you know me as Nudge. Do you remember me? I still remember you! Well I am flying from Paris to Arizona to see the other members of the flock. You remember Angel, Gazzy and Iggy, right? Well I haven't seen them in 10 years. I heard you guys were in California, which isn't that far from Arizona. I hope you guys can make it! I am bringing my fiance, Richard. He knows about the wings, so you don't have to hid them. Please, please come!
Nudge.
Max's eye filled with tears thinking about the flock she had left so many years ago. She smiled when she heard giggling in the other room. Fang approached her, Blaze resting on his shoulders. She strained a smile at him, explaining what was going on.
"Do you want to go?" He asked her, looking at her with love in his dark eyes. She bit her bottom lip slightly and nodded. "Then we are going. I wouldn't mind a trip." He shot her a sideways smile.
"I'll pack up, we leave tomorrow morning." She kissed his cheek.
"Sir, yes, Sir." Blaze called from her father's shoulders, saluting her mother.
Review please.
