Hi! Sorry, I couldn't get this out of my head. You'll see why this is under Max Ride. I will get 'So Far Away' up today-which is the sequel to Christmas Wishes.

Disclaimer: I don't own the Max Ride references. Such as Kai being on the run and the wings.


Finding You

Own Character Story

Preface: Traitor

There I sat, on the cliff, the sun rising, my feet dangling of the edge. The smooth, cool metal of my daggers caressed my skin, gently poking it. This is what I love about my job. Whenever I'm done with the current objective, I can spend as much time as I want, doing anything I want. The fresh morning breeze lingered on me, giving me chills.

My onyx ring buzzed, interrupting my peace. I knew in an instant that Ananda was getting impatient. I sighed, and spread out my midnight black wings, which had dark red feathers, nearly eighteen feet long. I dived, and caught the air current. Flying-it was the most exhilarating experience that anyone would want. Truly breathtaking. I loved it more than anything.

I made it to the gates of the kingdom in no time. The sprawling place where I lived was a maze. If you weren't a native-or if you didn't have wings-then, you'd get lost, eventually starving to death. Ananda was the general of Queen Kariana's kingdom. You did NOT want to get on her bad side. Trust me. I walked in, gliding effortlessly above the maze, stopping directly in front of the castle doors. I walked in, running through the corridors, making the tapestries move with the breeze.

"Kai," she announced, a murderous look in her black eyes.

"Ananda-I'm so sorry! I lost track-"

She cut me off. "Kai, Kai, Kai. I sometimes wonder why I ever let you live. Are you even worth it?" she mused. "Should I let her go? My best assassin? Or a very foolish girl who NEVER abides by my time constraint."

"I have no place to go! Ananda-you have to let me stay here!" I pleaded.

"Just because your entire kingdom was destroyed, doesn't mean that I should let you live. In fact, I should kill you right now."

"But-"

"Foolish Kai. You know what I can do."

I gulped.

"I can declare you a traitor, just like I did to your mother. She was as useful as a dummy. Just. Like. You."

My eyes glinted with anger. "You bitch," I whispered, mad.

She advanced toward me, livid. A stinging sensation went through my cheek. She had slapped me. Hard. I glared at her, not even fazed.

"I'll give you until midmorning to get out of here, before I declare you a traitor. I'm being generous. Go before I change my mind."

I ran out of the palace, stealing my arrows, bow, quiver, daggers, and my trusty sword. I unfurled my wings and flew-an amazing sight to any person who hasn't seen a person with wings.

I swerved, avoiding another arrow. It wasn't even midmorning when Ananda came looking for me. I knew that she would never abide by her own rules. I had been declared a traitor-and that was that. I had to be homeless again.

Making a split decision, I turned invisible. It would zap my energy quickly, but it was the only resource I had until I make it to the forest. I turned on my super speed also, for I had spotted the forest, three hundred miles ahead.

I tumbled through the treetops, earning several scratches and bruises, exhausted. I crash landed on the leafy floor, slipping into a deep slumber.

I have wings-ones that everyone craves. I've lost my family and friends. I've been declared a traitor by my new home. My name is Kai-and I have the power to destroy the world.


I hope you liked it! I would like five reviews. Please? I know you can do it!
