Some of you reading this are like, "why did you repost the same song fic?" Well, it was brought to my attention that the lyrics were unnecessary. So, I figured why not try it without them. This was the outcome. It's the exact same song fic, I just cut the lyrics and edited a few weak points. If you have any questions, comments or concerns, just email/review me. Thanks, you guys are great!

Max's POV:

I was lying on the bed in the hotel room, just watching Fang sleep. He looked so young, so open; not closed off like usual. It was then that I flashed back to the past few months.

I'm 18, our current age. I'm standing on the balcony of our newly established home. You see, we defeated the School and Itex over 3 years earlier, and no one tried to destroy us or the world. So, we decided to settle down. Anyways, it's the middle of a hot summer in Arizona. There are plenty of lights and party guests, yet I can still see him make his way towards me. He just wants to say hello, to keep me company, away from the commotion inside. Little did we know…

That my "daddy" decided to turn evil again. He was secretly helping the School re-construct. Now all they needed was a very successful experiment. Any guesses? That's right, me. One second Fang and I were kissing, and the next I was screaming and punching their newest breed of "Erasers". Fang was fighting too, but they made sure he didn't come after me. I heard him shout "NO!" just before I was taken to a newly located hell-hole. Every day I was there, I prayed,

Save me, take me somewhere we can be alone and safe. I'll be waiting; all we have to do is run. I'll be the damsel in distress, and you'll be my knight in shining armor. It's a twisted love story; just promise me you'll come.

After a week, I snuck out of my medium sized dog crate, and sent an email to Fang on a lap-top nearby. In the email I said,

To: Fang

From: Unknow

Subject: It's Max! I need your help!

Hey, it's Max. I'm at a new version of the school, exactly 25 miles north of the old location. I need you guys to wait 30 days from this date to rescue me. Figure out a plan. Gazzy, Iggy, build a bomb capable of blowing the place to bits, I know you can. I need you guys to stay safe, and come for me in a month's time. I love you all, Max.

My message was sent, so I took the battery out of the laptop and smashed it into millions of pieces. Just to make sure they didn't know I sent for back up. Plus, whatever evil was stored on the laptop was now gone too. But that was just an added bonus. I really hoped they got the message and did exactly as I asked.

In other news, Jeb was still evil as always. He was the one who captured me, the one who tested on me. My life, my flock, Fang, they were everything to me. After a while I actually began to beg Jeb to let me go. But he never did, and still every night I prayed,

Save me, take me somewhere we can be alone and safe. I'll be waiting; all we have to do is run. I'll be the damsel in distress, and you'll be my knight in shining armor. It's a twisted love story; just promise me you'll come. I also prayed to Fang directly.

Save me! They're keeping me in a cage and testing me. I know I've been difficult, but I've been afraid. Now, I'm all yours. We can make it out of this. It's a twisted love story; just promise me you'll come.

30 days came and went, and soon turned into 60. I gave up. My faith in them was fading rapidly. On day 60, a shadow cast over the moon startled me. It was dark like a cloud, but the sky was clear. It was then I saw the outline of its feathers, followed by 4 others. Soon enough Fang landed just outside my window. Iggy and Gazzy blew a hole in the wall, so that he could get me out of my cramped cage. I would of thanked him there, but a bomb ticked from 15, signally that we only had so many seconds to get as far away as humanly possible. Knowing that we wouldn't be able to get a safe distance away, everyone grabbed me and I used my super-speed to fly us to the outskirts of town. Because, you know, I'm awesome like that. When we heard the loud bang of the bomb going off, we knew we were safe. It was then I properly said my thanks.

I turned to my knight in shining armor and said,

"I kept waiting for you, but when you didn't come. I almost gave up entirely."

"I know we were late, but we would never forget about you, Maximum. And just to prove it," He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and asked,

"Will you marry me? This way, we'll always be together. I love you, you love me, that's all we really need. We've defeated yet another branch of the school, and we're all in one piece. So what do you say?" Wow, that was a lot for him. I got down to his level and said,

"It's a twisted love story, so I guess I'll go pick out a white dress." We then kissed, a kiss which said thank you, I love you, and yes, all at once.

That's why I'm here in Florida, watching my husband, nay, my soul mate, sleep.
