Chapter 1

Max POV

"No way Dylan! Not happening!"

"Max come on!" he yells as I run down the stairs.

For the past month or so the flock and I have been staying with my mom. Since he left things have been off. So my mom was kind enough to let us stay until we figured out what to do. Apparently Dylan decided that he was going to play leader and came up with a plan I was not okay with.

"No, never gonna happen. First off its boarding school and I don't do regular school let alone boarding school. Second of all there is no way I'm splitting up the Flock. Never again. Even if I'm the only person who gets what that means I'm sticking to it." I snap.

"Max, come on!" he whines following me to the living room.

"No."

"Please Max?" Nudge whined.

"You talked to Nudge!" I scream, whirling on Dylan.

"I needed someone to do the hacking." He shrugs. "And they're not normal schools, they're SPY schools." He practically yelled at me.

"The answer is no. End of story!" I bark. How do I always lose these arguments?

Cammie POV

I felt the limo slow and stop behind the long line of nearly identical chauffeured cars that brought us back to school each semester. I had just come back from my debriefing with the CIA and was ready to go home.

"Tell me everything!" someone cried as soon I opened the door. Sunlight bounced off the snow, blinding me before I could focus on my best friends face. As usual Bex looked like an Egyptian goddess. "Was it awesome?" she stepped aside but didn't pause because Bex doesn't have a pause. She has a play and a fast forward and even a rewind on occasion. But never a pause.

"Did they grill you? Was there torture? I bet it was bloody brilliant!" Most little girls in England dream of marrying a prince, Bex grew up wanting to kick James Bond's butt and assume his double-0 ranking. Yep that's my best friend.

Max POV

"Dylan, get that smirk off your face before I force it off." I bark as my mom drives the four of us to the airport.

"I'd love to see you try." He says slyly.

"Dude don't test her. I've made that mistake before." Iggy warns.

"Oh please, Max doesn't scare me." Dylan huffs. I turn in my seat and face him.

"You're starting to sound like Fang and in about three seconds I'm going to take every ounce of my anger for him out on you." I growl. Dylan pales and looks away.

"Good boy." I say before turning back around.

"Max, behave yourself. Who knows maybe you'll enjoy your time at this school?" mom says smiling.

"I doubt it." I grumble. I didn't want to seam rude to my mother but this seriously pissed me off! Why do I have to do this? I hate Dylan so much right now.

"Max, this isn't just another boarding school." Dylan points out once again.

"I know and I don't care."

"But you get to beat people up for a grade."

"Are any of those people you?" I ask.

"No."

"Then I'm not interested."

"Max! It's SPY school! This is so awesome! It's like meant for us and…" Nudge trailed off.

"You're welcome." Iggy says.

"Okay as of this second Iggy is my favorite." I announce.

What about me? Angel thinks to me.

I meant in the car and excluding you, sweetie. She giggled and that made me smile.

"Yes she's smiling." Dylan cheers.

Cammie POV

"Cam," my mother's voice calls as Bex and I head inside. "I need you to give a tour to our two new students, one of them will be rooming with you and the other is a 7th grader, they'll be here any moment."

"Rooming with me?" I ask.

"Yes, there wasn't any room with other girls and I trust you. Here are their files you and your roommates are the only ones who are to see these. Not even the younger girls roommates, understood?" I nod as she hands me the files and walks away. Bex and I sit on the front steps as we wait for the girls. I hand Bex a file and open the other.

Name: Maximum Ride (Max)

Age: about 15

Eyes: Brown

Hair: Dirty Blonde

Height: 5'8

DOB: unknown

History: Unknown

Notes: found one year ago along with five others like her. Helped create the CSM and has 2% avian DNA. Due to her messed up DNA she has wings, and other bird like vitals. Not much is known but she has some other abilities unknown to the CIA, FBI and any other governmental group.

WHAT! I look at Bex who looks just as dumb struck as I feel.

"Wings!" we whisper to each other. We switched files and I scanned over it.

"Ugh! Nudge shut up!" a voice yells. I look up to see a tall girl with dark blond hair and chocolate brown eyes step out of the limo before me.

"But Max this is so cool. I'm so excited! How are you not excited!" a younger looking girl says following her out of the car. She had mocha skin as flawless as Bex's and caramel curls that framed her face beautifully.

"Monique!" the first girl, Max, yelled. I look at Bex and she nods. These were our girls.

"Maximum and Monique Ride? I'm Camron Morgan and this is Rebecca Baxter we're supposed to give you a tour."
