First Maximum Ride fanfiction! just a warning, this might contain mature content(we are not talking about smex O.o) and anything beyond book 4 will not be referenced so no Dylan, csm, or apocalypse since this is set between book 2 and 3

Max had always said Fang would be the flock's leader if she died. He had never expected it to be so soon. After Max had beat her clone a.k.a Max II the six birdkids and Total had flown to colorado and hunkered down in a nearby canyon for the night Max had gone missing the next morning. There was no signs of struggle on the canyon's dirt or anything that indicated that she had been taken by force.

It's as if she had just taken off.

"Yo, time to move'' Fang ordered the flock as he snapped out of his thoughts. They where currently in a rundown motel room that included a couch and just one bed which meant Gazzy and Angel had slept in the bed, Nudge on the couch and Iggy and Fang on the floor. Just like that time Fang himself had been in the hospital, the smaller kids in the beds and the older one on the floor. Just as Max would of done so.

Without a word, unusual for them, they took off from the hotel and into the blue sky.

Short chapter but bear with me. idk if i'm continuing this since I just NEEDED to get it out of my system. See ye
