Fangs POV

What's happened to us? I thought looked over at Max. She was laying on the ratty hotel bed, next to the one I was laying on, the one I was sharing with Gasman and Iggy. Angel, and Nudge were sharing a bed with Max.

I sighed, I didn't want to think about Max, but I couldn't get her out of my head. I got out of bed and pulled off my Pajama bottoms, pulling on my jeans and my boots. Max shifted in her sleep and I looked over at her, she was sitting up now "Fang?" She asked. I nodded, but didn't say anything. Keep it cool. I thought, which was hard when I was talking to Max, the only girl for me; the girl of my dreams.

"Where are you going?" She asked quietly, getting up and crossing the room to me. I shrugged, I wasn't really sure where I was going, I just needed some air. "You can talk to me you know." She said sounding hurt, "You haven't spoken a word to me since we left my mother's house."

I stared into her face, turning my body so we were straight at each other. "I just want things to have gone differently." I said, "And," I continued, "I want to start these lives of ours over, I want to see…if there could be something different, that could have happened if we weren't taken." Max stared at me. That's the longest thing I've said for a while now.

"We would have never met." She said, "If we weren't taken, then we would have never met; never, ever." She shook her head. "Is that all you've been thinking about? What could have happened if we hadn't been taken?" She stared at me, like what? Her eyes showed some emotion, some mix of emotions. Great, that was the one thing I didn't want to see in her eyes.

"Max" I said, "You want to know what I've been thinking?" I picked up my bag. "You, how much, I love you." I stared before going on, "and how much you mean to me, but I can't stay with the flock anymore Max, you've saved the world, we've done our part. It's time to stop this fooling around. We don't need to stick together anymore."

Max's eyes widened, "What are you talking about?" She asked, angered. "We're family you're just going to walk out?" I nodded and opened the hotel door, slamming it behind me. That woke everyone up. Lots of "What happened?" and "Where is Fang?" chorused as I left, but I could hear the one thing I didn't want to. Max crying and Iggy comforting her; that made my blood boil.

Iggy's POV

He left Max, how could he just walk out? Sadly, I couldn't see him walk out. But I had heard what they were saying, not having slept that well. I was woken up the second Max said Fang? Max has in my arms now, I was holding her, and letting her cry on my shoulder. Like a good brother. Yeah, even though I wasn't her "brother." But, I guess she won't see me as anything more than that. Even though she means the world to me, and Fang knew that. But he meant the world to her, so why did he just get up and leave? That asshole!

Well this is the time of the stupid little "Prologue" where I have to start up the actually "Chapter One." Which will be fun for all you kitties, because it looks like Fang got what he wanted.
