AN: I wrote this story before Max was even a book so if things are diffrent don't blame me. This is not my best work but I thought It would work for my first Fanfic.
Prologue
Gozen POV
Rebooting… Rebooting the words flashed over Gozen's eyes. It had been eight years since the day he went into his coma. The hurricane glass had broken and the prey had escaped and killed his master. His vision came into focus; three men in lab coats surrounded him. He had electrodes on random points on his arms and chest. They looked shocked they had not seemed to think he would awake yet.
"He is awake call security" one of the scientists yelled.
Gozen didn't care what they were saying. He ripped the electrodes off his arms and chest. He rammed his arm through the nearest wall. The wall crumbled under the strength of his punch. He jumped out the hole hitting the ground below with a loud thump making a small crater. Guards started to shoot at him but the bullets just bounced off. He walked right over to the gate and ripped it off its hinges throwing it out of the way; he had a mission to complete. The last words of the Uber-Director
"Kill Maximum Ride, kill the flock, kill them all."
He must complete his master's last command, he must.

Max POV
"It's so tall" 4 year old Sarah said eyes wide. She was looking at the Space Needle
"How about we see it after the presentation." I said, as she laid down in my lap.
A few years ago we joined a group of scientists my mom recommended. The scientist is trying to get people to pay attention to global warming and they thought people would listen to us more than them. Well how can you blame them it's not every day that people see a bird kid so they will either listen or stare at us like we are freaks, we always get a little of both.
We were in a van driving through Seattle to a local high school. We had been all over the world talking about Global Warming. Starting in England we made our way through Europe, Asia, We even went to Australia. I was feeling a little jealous over the life we gave Sarah she has been all over the world by four, while at her age I was being tested on in a lab by some insane scientists. Though I was glad I had given her a good life so far.
"We are here." Angle said right before Fang did.
"Angle please don't do that while we are talking on stage we are already considers freaks by some people the last thing we need is to give them reason to believe that. I like it when we are in private though don't get me wrong."
"Will you two stop fighting we don't need this to continue on stage." Gazzy said.
Surprisingly enough Gazzy became very dedicated to the speeches he was even very serious in Asia were half the people couldn't understand them. For a 16 year old boy it is impressive.
Fang shut up before he finished and I started to rip on him a little.
"Man Fang taking orders from a boy 6 years younger than you, you really need to grow some balls and stand up for yourself." I said laughing. "Weren't you the one giving orders about 4 years ago, I guess being a father made you soft.
He made sure Sarah couldn't see him and flipped me off
The speech went over well there was a lot of questions, a lot though a lot of people didn't believe us but plenty of people cheered at the end. Then the most shocking thing we thought possible happened as soon as we walked out. Something with wings started to descended around us.
"Guy's form a ring around Sarah and defend her at all costs." I said
"I thought every branch of Itex was shut down." Gazzy said
"Let me give our guest a proper greeting" I said wings unfurling
I shot up, the winged person stopped descending and started to speak.
"Are you Max" It was a girl about 18 she had wings.
"Yes, do I know you?" I asked racking my brain for who she was.
"I don't know if you'll remember my but, I was the girl from the lab under New York." We touched the ground a few seconds later.
"Who is that with you Max?" Fang said pulling Sarah closer to him.
"This is… I never got your name" Max said.
"Erin" she said
"Erin the bird girl we left in charge of the mutants from New York," I said "By the way
Did any of them survive?"
"They all expired by the end of two years. After that I went to find my parents in California.
"Did you find them?" Nudge asked
"Yes," she said "but they were hit in a drive by shooting. I have been living by myself for a few years"
"So why are you here" Iggy asked
"I wanted to join the flock please; you let a three year old join." Erin said
"I'm four" Sarah yelled at her hiding behind Fangs arms
"Sorry about Sarah she is not good with new people," I whispered in Erin's ears so Sarah would not here. "And Sarah is my daughter she did not join."
"Well…"
CRACK
Something broke through the wall and ran right at the flock, Sarah screamed
"Up and away, hurry Angle help Sarah up fast, Erin come with us hurry."
We were in the air in five seconds flat Angle at the back with a crying Sarah in her arms. We had to hurry, with my raptor vision I saw that thing was bringing a gun up and aiming. For one in my life I wish Gazzy or Iggy had a bomb on them. Well it turned out they did, a smoke bomb went off near the thing and he lost sight of us.
"Was that Gozen?" Fang said moving closer to help Sarah, who Angle had just got to stop crying enough to fly.
"I think so, I thought he was a corpse was at the lap Jeb runs in Arizona." I said.
"Well I guess we are going to Arizona." Iggy said. A broad grim on his face
"Going to try to hit on my sister again" I joked laughing
"Cut it out Max I mean It." he said coming at me fist balled
