Phoenix

"Lakayla, your going to be late!" Ugh, first day of school not even a whole year of preparation could prepair me for highschool let alone a week. Hi I'm Lakayla or you might know me as Phoenix. Ok ok let me go back a bit. You guys know Maximum Ride right? Well most of the books were true aside from a few things like anyone knowing about them, and them being famous, and obviously the whole end of the world thing. Anyhow close to the end of the series Max and the gang got captured, only Iggy and Nudge were never found. We all thought they had died, my father Fang was killed during the fight. I was only two when all this happened so I don't remember but Angel told me the story many times. My mom said I looked like my father, Fang. She had said he had olive colored skin, and amazing dark eyes that were so deep and intense it was like you would get lost in them, he was tall for his age but all us Human-Avains are, his hair and wings were raven colored. In other words he was born a Emo. My mom, Max, was very independent and stuborn. She had light brown hair and brown eyes, her wings were tan with brown specks, and her primary feathers were streaked black and white. In short her wings looked like a hawks. See, now I have olive colored skin, raven hair, brown eyes, and my wings are black with white primary feathers and specks. We have been trapped in a government facility this super important guy was sponsering. Its hard to discribe being locked in a cage, I mean I would say it was lonely but it really wasn't, with Angel, Gazzy, and Max. We aren't really religious considering what we've been through. I had never been outside the New School. But after hearing about how Iggy and Nuge could still be alive the adults decided that I would escape so I could search for them or their kids and warn them about the New School. I made a promise that I would free my mom, Angel, and Gazzy. So thats how I got here.

Anyways I immediately get up and ready. I choose a short-sleaved shirt with a red phoenix on the front (Ironic right?), a leather jacket, some biker gloves, and combat boots. Dutch Braid one side of my hair and head downstairs. I dash into the kitchen for breakfast.

"Crap! I'm gonna be late. Gotta go, Miss. Karen!" I grab a few granola bars and run for the door (As you should know us Bird-kids have a high metablizm, like Flash).

"Lakayla, don't forget-"

"I know, I know 'don't let anyone see my wings.'" I say making air quotes with my fingers.

"Hey and don't talk back!" she says it like its a bad thing! Miss. Karen is probably 5' and has short brown hair. Miss. K's cool and all but, she's still a grown up, and Max said to never trust a grown up.

I run into the woods around back of the house, and take off my jacket, spread my wings and with one powerful down-stroke I lift off the ground. As I rise into the sky I scan the ground and air for Erasers, Flyboys, Horseman, or anything else weird. After my conscience is satisfied that there are none of those around, I shoot off like a bullet getting up to 300 miles per hour. I love the feeling of flying, the wind through my hair. I reach at the school in minutes I do a quick circle above the school and swoop down to land behind some busses.

When I walk in there are kids on eitherside of me, I catch myself wondering if any of these kids are mutants. When I see this jock looking guy walking towards me my paranioa spikes. He scratches the back of his neck and looks up, when he meets my eyes and quickly looks away, but proceeds to walk towards me thats when my nerves really shoot through the roof.
