The First Flight
Disclaimer: characters belong to Maximum Ride by James Patterson
"Mommy! Look at what I can do!" Lissa cried as she flapped her wings; lifting a few inches off the floor of the nest. "Wow, your doing event better than little Maximum, 'I'm not little' yes you are sweetie you are only a month old while Lissa is two and a haft, " mother said using her stern voice she only saved for me, I have yet to hear her use it on Lissa.
"Yeah, Maxie you try flying I bet you can't even get off the ground," Lissa called sneakily, knowing that I hated being called "Maxie".
"Ok, I will. I even bet I can fly higher than you," I said flapping my wings hard hoping with all my heart that the gods would help me… but I wasn't counting on it, everyone, all my life has been against me. I was used to it. "Let's go," I said signing expecting the worse. I'll show Lissa. I can beat her in flying and anything else… no one cares… at all… what so ever… ever. But I always come off on top. Back to the present now,
"Lissa you're going to owe me ten worms after this," I said angrily. "You ready for the worst beating you'll ever get?" I started to flap my wings rapidly before finally feeling the air under my wings. I felt my legs lift off the ground, higher than Lissa flew. Before I had been up for even a minute I was back on the ground Anne (my mom) pulled me back, "Max you shouldn't show off. It's rude and inconsiderate to your older sister, who for some reason you are better at everything at." Oh yeah! I'm better than Lisa and Anne just admitted it. Best day ever! ... Wait noooo we're having sea slug for dinner, I hate you mom. How could you mom…Dad. Why, you know that I hate sea slugs … oohh you admitting that I'm better means that I have to eat sea slugs, you guys play dirty… but I'll get you back soon very soon (insert evil smile)
