A/N. I know that I have not updated my other stories in forever but I have the worst case of writers block so I started a new story but if you read my others, I probably will be updating soon. I will probably update each story (including this one every week)
Disclaimer: I do not own maximum ride or fang would still be with the flock angel would never have turned evil and Dylan would never exist.
"You're the closest to heaven that I will ever be and I don't want to go home right now. When everything's meant to be broken I just want you to know who I am when everything feels like the movies I bleed just to know that I'm alive." The song finished and I continued to walk home hitting replay on my iPod. Out of the entire goo goo dolls songs iris was my favorite. For those of you who did not know I am max. Maximum Ride I was once a loner. Now I am a mute. It happened in the dark.
Dark.
Bad things happen in the dark, very bad things.
It was two years ago I was 14 and walking home like now. I saw a car but thought nothing unusual of it; I just shrugged and kept on walking minding my own business. Then it slowed down and an obviously drunk guy walked out. "Hey pretty thang why don't we go back to my place there is a wild party going on. I'm sure we could find something fun to do." He winked getting closer.
"No."
"Sorry I did not introduce myself I am Dylan now come on get in the car."
"No."
"Little b****." He took me by the shoulders I kicked and screamed but no one heard. Least I thought no one did. "Hey unhand that girl right know." I managed to look over and saw a police officer. Dylan cursed and made a run for it. The officer made a move to follow but stopped when he saw me. Moreover, the tears streaming down my face. Maybe it was the sobbing he had heard.
"I'm Dave Venom." He said slowly as if he was afraid I could not understand him.
"I'm max." I replied.
"I'll take you home and you can get cleaned up but then we'll need a statement from you soon." He made a move of opening the door for me but I was already backing away. I did not like cars just as I did not like the dark because bad things happen. You might call me paranoid but it is Dylan's fault.
"I will never get in one of those contraptions again." I told Dave. He just laughed as if I said a joke. He offered to walk me to his house because it was closer. I agreed as long as I did not have to be trapped in those boxes that move. While walking it was quiet but when I looked at him I noticed he was wearing all black had black hair and had guess what color eyes. If you guessed black congratulations, you are a winner. You get absolutely nothing. It was not his fault that there was an awkward silence he tried to make conversation but I didn't talk Dylan didn't care what I said so why talk if no one will even listen. "I shall never give some person the privilege to hear me talk." I say making a vow that I will always keep. Always. The house was huge but I could not see much in the dark. Dave opened the door and made a hand motion for me to go in. I walked in slowly and he followed me
"Nicholas!" he screamed and soon I saw a figure going down the steps. It took me by surprise because he did not make any noise.
"fang." He corrected his I am guessing dad annoyed how his dad would always call him Nicholas or nick. It might be on his birth certificate but I will never be a nick I am fang not nick, nick died as soon as fang was old enough to pick out his clothes. He then nodded towards me in anowledgment. "Show Maxine the showers and can you find a pair of clothes that might fit her. You know because she is a twig." I was trying not to rip his head off for calling me Maxine. Fang turned and walked leaving me no choice but to follow him. When we were out of ear shot he said," You hate being called Maxine don't you?"
"Yep." I replied. "It is not even on my birth certificate my real name is maximum ride not Maxine." I said making a noise of disgust at the last part. He smiled and led me to the washroom leaving a pair of his sweatpants and shirt for me to change into. I never gave officer venom a statement on what had happened.
I was snapped out of the flashback by the noise of a car coming passed. When I looked over and saw who was in it I sighed with relief. It was only one of my bestest friends JJ.
"You sure you don't want a ride?" I shook my head no, as did the other thousand times the question was asked. I have an electric blue motorcycle but it was at the shop getting some touch ups to its paint. Every electronic I own is electric blue the same blue that is in my blond hair. The same color as my eyes too. Everybody loves my big sky blue eyes but I think they look like algae infected water colored bowling balls that I swear take up half my face. If you saw fangs eyes, you would not look twice at mine. Fang resembled his father exactly black hair, black eyes, black clothes, and no emotion. Even though it was so, dark out I figured out that fang and I have two things in common, we are both obsessed with soccer and we both look exactly like our dads. To get you caught up with the mute thing it was not all about Dylan that made me mute my younger brother ari was killed the day after and I refused to talk after that. My twin sister Ella takes it hard not having me talk but we use sign language. We used to do this thing where we said things at the same time like always then she would say, "great minds think alike!" than I would reply, "and then there are ours." She also says she misses my singing everyone said I sang like an angel. I was not bad but not that good.
"Max!" I hear Ella calling but just continue walking knowing she will catch up. Soccer makes us both fast and practically twigs. We know how to fight though we had no choice but to learn how to.(A?N. everybody who talks to max knows sign language but talks out loud and max signs back.")
"Hey maxi!"
"Hey els."
"What's up?" Ella asks even though her breaths are coming out in pants since we just had soccer practice.
"Nothing much but coach said there was some new kids moving in right next door who are interested in trying out for soccer."
"Nice I can't wait!" she yelled in her usual enthusiasm that never failed to make me smile. "Wait the house that is identical to ours." She asked slowly looking a little irritated.
"Yes but why does it matter?"
"How come mom and dad didn't tell us?"
" I do not know why momma and daddy didn't tell us!" and no before you think I am one of those stuck up girls or babies that call their mum momma and dad daddy I'm a brit and austi mix so I grew up knowing that mom was momma in Australia and dad was daddy in Britain. We came to a stop in front of our house and saw our younger siblings playing with our black Scottie total.
"Hey angel, hey gazzy." Ella and I said.
"Great minds think alike! Ella signed.
"And then there are ours!" I finished.
Daddy came walking out with four people in tow smiling brightly saying, "Max, Ella meet our new neighbors." I was frozen because I have seen the two before and heard about the other two.
A/N. not much of a cliffy but oh well I will probably update again before Tuesday and I know max has brown eyes and blondish brown hair but I am giving her clear blue eyes and plain blonde hair with blonder, blue and red highlights. Of course, the blue and red streaks are dyed but the blonde is natural. Ella will look exactly like max because they are identical twins but she will have brown eyes, and no blue or red streaks, because of her mom but they have the same DNA and blood type. Everybody else looks the same as in the books including jeb and dr.m. Fangs mom has brown hair and amber eyes and fangs dad is an older version of fang…or is fang a younger of his dad. See this is a good cliffhanger. Ha-ha. I also love the song iris by the goo goo dolls and the story will be based on this song hence the name but it is not a song fic it will just have occasional versus based on what the situation is every once in a while. I also know in the beginning the versus are not in the right order but I just put my favorite versus in. there are a couple authors that gave me some ideas so thank you and when I remember your username ill put it in here since I'm a failure with no memory. On a happier note if you have, any questions ask and I will put the answers in the next chapter ASAP. R&R :)
