Horizon
Max sat on the roof of her mothers house, staring at the distant horizon. All those years ago, Itexicon, The flock, everything else she knew had left her. Alone.
"What a cruel world." she thought. Max wished for the voice to return, all those annoying remarks, rude interruptions, confusing riddles.
"Max dinner's going to be ready soon!" Dr. M shouted from down below.
"Okay mom I'll be down soon!" Max shouted back. Not much had happened since the flock had left. She started school, made friends, lived a normal life, no wings nothing. Though life isn't a playground, especially on your own. Her cell rang, she flipped it on.
"Hello?" she asked, no answer. "Hello anyone there?" Nothing. Then she heard deep breathing, then the caller hung up. "Great, it's that person again." This was probably the 17th time that happened, some random person rang, no caller ID , no voice, just deep breathing. She jumped down onto the balcony. The flock had all split up, after the events six years earlier. Max exhaled deeply. "Stupid shadow freaks" Well at least one part of her past remained.
Everyone sat down for dinner.
"Mom where's Ella?" Max asked.
"Oh she's out with some friends." Dr. M had said
"Oh okay." Max said, and with that she dug in to the delicious meal that was laid out for her and her mother. After three rounds she got up and took her plate to the sink.
"Max get the door would you?" Dr. M asked. Even though Max didn't even hear the door.
"Sure mom." Max dried her hands and walked over to the door, and opened it.
"Oh hey Ella, you just missed dinner." Max said.
"Damn, judging by your breath it was pretty good." Ella laughed.
"Wait but my breath doesn't smell does it?" Max was busy smelling her breath as Ella walked over to her mom.
"Welcome back Ella, I saved you some food, but only just." Ella laughed again.
"Oh and Max some dude
told me to give you this note." Ella handed Max the note. Max
took the note
"Thanks" she said. The note read:
Dear Max,
Times have changed, we all have, we are all alone, I ask one last favour from you, you don't have to, but it would help if you did.
Meet me at the local park at 6:00 pm. Alone.
Yes I'm back people, sorry about being gone for ages, I'm just so busy, my uncle recently passed away, and my father left so I've been busy dealing with it all but I'm back and ready to continue the sequel to Legend so....well yeah! Oh and a plot clue will be given to anyone who guesses who wrote the note, trust me it's not who you think it is ;D
