AN: 'Tis my first FF! Please, only constructive criticism. I hate it when writers add a bunch of new characters to Maximum Ride, but I just had to ;)
Sorry for all the POV changes!
Disclaimer: Sadly, I do not own Maximum Ride and stuff.
Claimer: Un-Sadly I own Kyla and this plot line ;)
Hi. I'm Kyla. 14.
Now what.
Well I guess I should tell you. I'm not... normal. Sure, I'm human. I have think, long, brown hair, bright blue eyes... but I also have something else. I have wings. That's right. Pure white things on the back of me, that flap and give me the ability to fly. Yeah.
See, ever since I can remember, I lived at this place. "The School." They did a lot of experiments and stuff on kids like me. I know there are... maybe were... other experiments like me. With, like wings. No one told me, but I read the white-coats' minds. Did I mention I have powers? I can read minds, become invisible, and stop time. When I stop time, I can unfreeze people so there are only certain people unfrozen. Pretty cool, eh? But It uses up a lot of energy, so I don't do it much.
I still have way more to find out about The School, how I became Avian American, and, well, life.
Back to the other bird kids topic. I mainly heard of a chick named Maximum. Maximum Ride. She sounded pretty special, everyone seemed to treat her nicer than everyone else. Well, she had a "flock" who, kind of, was her family. Fang, Iggy, Nudge, the Gasman, and the baby Angel. I never actually met them, sadly, but I know all about them, and what they look like from visions. I guess you could consider it another power. I kinda see miny movies, as dreams, but 3D, and real. I know Max and Fang both like each other, a lot, and are kinda together. Max has super speed and plays Mommy. Fang is kind of emo looking, but kinda hott. I know Angel has a bunch of powers that she kind of misuses, Nugde talks a whole lot, Gazzy is super cute, and does bomb stuff with Iggy, who's blind, has super sences other than sight, cooks really well, and he's hott too.
I would like to meet them someday, though. They left the school like I did. In the visions I was able to tell where they are, and I should be there early tomorrow, since I've just stopped for food now, and I'm not planning on sleeping. Luckily they're hiding in a cave, so I won't be seen by anyone by them.

Iggy's POV
I had been on watch for hours when I finally heard a noise in the bushes. I focused really hard. I could tell it was a person. Now what, I thought. I decided to go wake up Max.
"Max," I whispered, and shook her a bit, "Max, there's someone coming."
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Max POV
I sprung up just as the mystery person came into view. She was about as tall as us and had very long brown hair. I was just about to yell, asking who she was, when suddenly pure white wings unfurled from her back. So, I just stood there, shocked. Iggy eventually got restless and asked what happened. By the time I whispered about how she had wings, the girl was within 10 feet of camp. She came up to me, looking exhausted.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Iggy's POV
"Hi. Um... I'm Kyla. I'm 14. I know who you are. Max, and Iggy," she said, quickly. I immediately fell in love with the sound of her voice, "Yes, I have wings like you guys. I came from the school. I can read minds, become invisible, stop time and I've been getting visions of you guys for a while now."
Wow. I could tell Max was speechless. She had covered all the basics. And she had wings. This was crazy.
"Um... hi," Max replied.
"I'd love to tell you guys my story and stuff, but I'm really tired, I haven't slept in at least a day. I've been focused on getting to you guys. I promise I'm not an Eraser," wow, she knew about those too, "Do you mind if I..."
She must have made some sort of movement about going to sleep because Max answered: "Sure. Iggy, it's my watch now."
"Kay," I replied, and lay down for some rest.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Kyla's POV
I woke up bright and early along with everyone else. Someone must've told the rest of the flock about how I came last night, since nobody asked any questions. While we were all eating the breakfast Iggy had cooked, I decided to tell my story: "I'm sure you guys are wondering about me and stuff. So I might as well tell you my story now, and get it over with."
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Max's POV
"I'm sure you guys are wondering about me and stuff. So I might as well tell you my story now, and get it over with." Kyla began, "Ever since I can remember I lived at the school. I was treated poorly, but didn't really mind. I didn't know there was a nicer way to live. When I was about 6, I met another kid with wings. Brad," she had tears in her eyes, something terrible must've happened, I thought, she swallowed, "Brad was like a brother to me. But more. We grew up in the zoo together, literally. We were in a glass box with a bunch of white coats watching our every move.
"Occasionly an Eraser was thrown in and we had to kill it. For practice. That's what they said at least. We killed them though. Brad had super strength and super speed though, which helped a lot.
"A few months ago, they just took Brad away." Kyla shut her eyes for a while, then opened them, sighing, "They killed him. I could tell from visons and mind reading, and I could feel that he was dead. I'm pretty sure they only let me meet Brad because they wanted us to breed. They wanted to see if two avian americans could have avian kids. Well duh, we' were 14. So maybe we did love each other. Maybe we kissed and stuff but that doesn't mean..."
Kyla trailed away, crying softly. Obviously, she really did love this guy, "So then, I knew it was time for me to leave. So I did. I had visions of you guys, and decided to come here."
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Iggy's POV
Wow. What a story... taken away from someone she loved... No wait, that meant she was taken... Frig... she seems so nice, even already...
"Well guys," Max said, "I think we're going to have a visitor for a while."
Well I could go along with that, I thought.
I could practically hear the smiles on Angel's and Nudge's faces, that's how big they were. I could tell the adored Kyla too.
Everything seemed good, for once.
Until the Erasers showed up.
