OK!!! So I was reading the new Maximum Ride book, MAX, when this idea struck me... what if Max never met the rest of the flock? So here you go... oh and just to let you know, I get distracted really easily... yeah!!! But my friend is editing this and she loves deadlines, which are soooo helpful when you have a deadline. Any-who... on to the story...
DISCLAIMER: For James Patterson and all the other people who helped with Maximum Ride...I don't own anything related to Maximum Ride, i.e. Max, the flock, Jeb, etc. So please don't sue me!!! Oh, but don't use my characters unless I say you can!!!
Prologue: Escape
Max's P.O.V. (Four years before story-Max is ten and my characters are seven)
I'm free!
Free of the School and those annoying, painful, "mandatory" test. I don't like the word mandatory.
But my lame excuse of a father, Jeb, is now where to be seen. He helped me escape with Zara and Zephyr and just freaking vanished!!!
Zara and Zephyr are two mutant freaks, or "hybrids" (snort), who are 2% lion, or some giant cat. But apparently they can still fly by controlling wind currents or something. Weird. But what-ever.
But I don't think we'll ever be free of the School. Zara, who is like preprogrammed for heightened senses, says she can hear Erasers chasing us.
"Let's fly," I told them, snapping my wings open, catching the strong current the Z-twins (perfect name!!!) called forward to get them flying. They rose into the air and we flew aqap (as quick as possible, get it) away from the evil School. The Erasers chased us on the ground.
"Hopefully, we'll lose them soon," Zephyr quipped.
"Yeah." me and Zara agreed.
I had no idea how wrong we were.
Fangs P.O.V. (Fang and Iggy- ten. Nudge- seven, the Gasman- four, Angel- two)
Jeb, the kind whitecoat, kidnapped us and took us... somewhere. A "house." Where us five can live together, safe- no more experiments, tests, Erasers, or fighting. Just me, Nudge, Iggy, Angel, and the Gasman, or Gazzy.
Jeb stayed with us. Taught us how to cook, fight "properly," wash clothes, take care of Angel, whose only two. We all hoped we could stay like this forever.
