Chapter 1

Max Pov

Me and the flock had been flying for the last hour or so and we needed a break. After we had ditched that stupid speech thingy we flew west for a while. I looked over my shoulder to see what was going on. Nudge was talking non-stop to Fang who looked like he was about to stop flapping his wings so he could just freefall and die. The Gasman was joking around with Iggy about something or other and Angel was playing 20 questions with Total, I think she'll win.

" Hey guys, you want to stop and get something to eat?" There was a moment of silence and staring as if I had said something stupid and then everyone just went 'duh'.

We landed in front of a Mc Donalds right outside of some big casino. We all walked inside and ordered our food. The guy at the front desk looked like he had never seen a girl order six big macs before, jeesh. " I'm gonna go see if I can find a map, I'll be right back." Fang said as he walked off.

I watched him go thinking about how he thinks I like him as more than a brother, I don't. That's just something he'll have to realize one day I hope its not too hard for him. He came back with a map in his hands. " So where are we? I hope were in California cuz I really want to go swimming in the ocean or go to Disneyland. Wouldn't that be great, go on the rides and eat frozen bananas, they're my favorite frozen treat and did you know th-" Iggy clapped a hand over Nudges mouth before anyone else could, why is it always him, well who knows?

"Were in Nevada, the closest city is Las Vegas. I think we should stop there a while it's a pretty big city that actually has houses and a school system. I bet we could even get your mom to move down here." wow that was actually a good idea.

" Good idea, I think it would be safe if we stayed in one place for a while." We gathered our things and left the restaurant. It took us about thirty minutes to fly to Las Vegas, but once we got there it was truly a sight. There was casino after casino after casino, I think they gave Paris the name they should have given Vegas, City of Lights. I swear there had to be a million neon lights in every direction. I don't even need to tell you I had to divert Fang's attention back to flying every time he came across a bordello sign.

We had been flying for what seemed like forever when we saw a sign about twenty miles from the strip saying that there were apartments for sale. We landed and found a good neighborhood. It was about an hour before we were able to move in. Talk about speedy service, that's probably why there is a chapel/ KFC on the strip.

I called the school district and got us signed up for school. I walked into the main room of our apartment and found everyone asleep. I layed down next to everyone and fell asleep too. Tomorrow would be an exciting day.

I woke up early the next day, about five o' clock to be precise. I woke everyone up and told them we were going to school a round of 'yays' and 'woot woots' passed through the room as we all went to get ready.

"Max, what is the name of our school?" Angel asked me tiredly.

" You're school is called Lee Antonello, or something like that. Nudge's is called Finley, and mine, Iggy and Fang's is called Legacy. " She smiled and nodded and then walked away. (A/N: those are real schools in Vegas)

We all finished getting ready and headed out the door to get to the bus. I had packed everybody's lunch and made sure we had all brushed their teeth. In a way Im like the mother of this rag- tag bunch of kids and I just wish I could find a friend that I didn't have to mother all the time.

Travis' Pov

Oh god Im gonna be late again, I thought as I raced down the street. " C'mon Sarah, were gonna be late again and I really don't need the detention!!" I yelled at my sister who was running along behind me. All of a sudden a giant white wolf with huge gray wings ran past me and jumped in the air to start flying. "Fine, if that saves time." I said more to myself than anyone else.

I bent over and started changing into the hulking bear ,that I was, with my giant crimson and gray streaked wings and flew off. I caught up easily enough with Sarah and we stopped about a block from the school so we could change back. "You've gotten faster big bro, but I still beat you here and that means Im still the best." I looked down at her.

"Yeah, but Im still stronger and taller. Seriously, I picked up a car last week and threw it behind me. Im also six foot three and you're a little five foot eight." I laughed as we turned the corner heading for the school.

"Yeah , well if I was a bear instead of an artic wolf I would be tall and strong too. But hey at least I have the potential of finding someone I can kiss." I laughed.

"Why would I need a girlfriend when I have you to do my laundry and cook my food?" she laughed too as we walked into school. We seperated when we entered to go to classes, I turned the corner without looking and ran into something and got knocked over. As I opened my eyes and sat up I came face to face with the most beautiful girl I've ever seen.

I walked into the school after dropping off the younger members of the flock. I must be late because noone is in the halls. I walked around looking for my first class when I turned the corner and ran into someone. I fell backwards on my butt. When I sat up and opened my eyes I saw the most good-looking guy I've ever seen in my life.

He jumped up quickly and offered me his hand. I shook my head to empty out all the naughty thoughts and took his hand.

"Im sorry, Im not usually that clumsy. Did I hurt you at all, if I did im really sorry." He said at once, for being a big brute of a guy, he was pretty sweet. "You look new, at least let me show you to your class."

"Ok, and Im fine really, but thank you. My name is Max, Max Ride." He started laughing. "What?"

"First of all, my name's Travis, Travis Gray. And second, you have the same name as that person from Germany, ya know 'Save the flock, Save the world' I thought it was kind of funny all those kids attacking the old castle." I froze up and got ready to run. "You ok?"

"Yeah, Im fine. My first class is Zoology I. Do you know where it is?" he laughed and grabbed my schedule out of my hands. Its kinda funny were almost the same height.

"We have the exact same schedule, it's a little creepy to say the least. Are you a stalker?" he looked serious.

"No, I don't think someone would stalk you even if you wanted them too." I said in my usual sarcastic way.

"Well, we better get to class before the tardy bell rings. Lest we get detention." This guy is good-looking, funny and an all around sweetie. I'll have to keep an eye on him.

Bob the Whitecoat Pov

I sat at the computer that monitored the bio-chips in every experiments arm. All of a sudden two experiments data popped up on the screen. " Dr. L. there has been a spike in the pheromone levels of experiments 1185 and 4832. The self named Max Ride and Travis Gray. According to the GPS they're in… Las Vegas." He stood there for a sec thinking while I just sat there didling my thumbs.

"If their pheromone levels are that high that means they are more likely to mate, and if they are more likely to mate they are more likely to reproduce and if they do that we will have the first offspring of two experiments." He stopped and as soon as I opened my mouth… "But we must wait and watch to make sure that they fall in love so as of today we mark day one of Operation: Make experiments 1185 and 4832 Fall in Love and Mate to make a new experiment for us to later experiment on."

"That's a really long name, maybe we should call it Operation: Cupid."

"That is BRILLIANT!! They should make you a scientist or something."

"I am a scientist sir. Remember I was the one that made the super –pheromone."

"Yes, and I created the truffle shuffle. Blah blah blah." This would be a trying time for me for sure.
