Chapter 1

Max POV

I walk into the kitchen this morning in a bit of a good mood. We hadn't been attacked by the school in months. Everyone was already in the kitchen when I got there. And they were all assembled at the kitchen table... Not suspicious at all.

"What's up?" I ask cautiously.

"You need to leave Max." Iggy says.

"What, why? To go to the store or-"

"No. You need to leave the flock. You're unfit to be our leader, and even less that a good mother or lover figure." Fang says. I rear back as if struck a little. I purse my lips waiting for the others.

"So this is how you all feel?" I snap. They all look nervous but none the less nod. "If this is a joke feel free to end it now." I glare, and they all, even Fang, flinch.

"It's not a joke Max. We've been thinking this over for a long time now. Well, we've been thinking of other things as well- Our point is you need to go. Your tired, and a try hard." Nudge rants. I raise my eyebrows at her. On the outside looking calm and collected. But on the inside feeling as if I was shattering.

"Well. I just go then. I can't even believe this. After all I've done for all of you. After all we've been through. Especially you Fang." I mutter. I turn to walk out of the house but someone grabs my arm.

"Max. You need to believe it because it's happening. As for us. I'm just sorry for leading you on so long. I still can't believe you'd actually think I'd love you." Fang says keeping eye contact the entire time. I clench my jaw. And do the first thing that comes to mind. I reach up and slap him across the face hard. I can actually hear his jaw snap.

"Well I did. But I don't have to anymore. You all want this. Fine. I'm out." I snap.

"Goodbye Max. We won't miss you." Angel's tinkling voice whispers eerily. I glare at her and everyone else before running out the front door and taking off.

I fly until I absolutely can't anymore. I look down and notice I'm near my Mom and Ella. I land in the woods behind their house before stepping out. As I land I can feel myself breaking and can feel a few tears escape my eyes. I walk to the back door and knock. The door slides open by itself and I'm greeted by silence. I walk into the house and walk to the living room. I glare when I enter.

"Let them go. Now." I growl. The erasers holding my Mom and Ella laugh.

"Only if you come with us."

"That it? No double cross, no back threat?" I say eerily.

"They go free, unharmed, if you come with us."

"Let them go first and I'll come." I say, I couldn't risk them getting harmed.

"Hey birdie. Where's your little flock?" An eraser asks.

"Not here. And their not my flock anymore." I say glaring heavily at the eraser as he roughly unties Ella.

"Max don't do this!" she shouts.

"Ella, have faith in me." I say. Both mom and Ella are free.

"Alright now will you come the easy way or the hard way?" The lead eraser asks. I feel more tear prick at my eyes.

"Really not in the mood to put up a fight so let's get this over with, you mutts." I growl.

"Aww. Is the little birdie crying?" I glare at him but don't say anything. I'd never let this happen in front of the flo-. They're not your flock anymore Max. I remind myself. I'm brought back to everything by Ella and Mom's sobbing. I smile brokenly at them, as an eraser ties my wrists and wings.

As I'm dragged outside I mutter under my breath.

"New life begins."
