I don't own Maximum Ride
Max Point of View
"Holy crap, is that really me?" I thought to myself, while I looked at my now CLEAN face, having just gotten out of the shower.
With my golden sun streaked hair, big brown eyes, and full red lips…
"I actually look like a….. girl right now" ….not that I really cared, but, It was nice to know I still had a femine side left in me. I mean, years of on the run and tons of butt kicking does that to ya.
Without all the dirt and mud forming a layer of skin on my body, I think I actually looked pretty decent.
Whoa, wait. Am I actually complimenting myself on my looks? Way too much of my time was spended with nudge.
Eager to get back to my normal self, I quickly got out of the bathroom and slipped on a t –shirt and basketball shorts.
The flock and I were staying at my mom's house. And I know what you're thinking, why the hell are you staying at your mom's house? Shouldn't you be on the run? Aren't erasers gonna attack you? Well, that's the thing. We haven't been attacked by the erasers for a while now. They like, just… disappeared. Gone. Gave Up. Or something like that. So, the flock and I decided to take a break and relax for a bit. And what's a better way to relax than staying at home eating chocolate while watching T.V? Nothing!
At least for the flock and I.
Running downstairs, hoping to get some food into my starving stomach, I bumped into Angel.
"Hey sweetie, did you eat breakfast yet?"
"yeah….. hey, um, could I talk to you for a second?" Her cute little smile turning into a frown.
Uh oh.
"sure sweetie, what is it?"
"well, um, you see, we kind of want to have a flock meeting. You know, with the entire flock"
"um, ok" I stated, confused. Did something happen?
She then lead me to the living room, where the whole entire flock sat.
Silence
" … Well, this is a strange turn of events. Could someone tell what the heck is going on?" I said, not liking the fact that no one was explaining the reason for this random meeting.
More silence
"uh, seriously guys, what's the matt –
"We want you out of the flock" Angle cut me off
I slowly let that process through my brain…
"What?" I yelled in sheer disbelief. I wasn't sure if I heard them right.
"We. Want. You. out. of. The. flock" Fang said, as if talking to a 3 year old.
"B, But why?" I stuttered. Was this a bad dream? A really bad joke? Was I going insane?...
But the news finally sunk in. They wanted me out of the flock. They wanted me gone. They didn't want me around anymore. They didn't want me.
My own flock. My own family. The 5 people that I trusted out of this whole wide world, they didn't want me. I trusted them with my life, I would sacrifice anything for them, and here they were, telling me to get lost.
"We know all about your plans" sneered Iggy
"Huh? What plans?" What the hell was going on?
"Don't act stupid. We know all about how you were going to leave us and go try to save the world on your own. We even know that you plan on leaving during the night so none of us would find out! How do you think we felt when we found out you were going to betray us? What kind of leader are you? Leaving your flock for your benefit! Well guess what! We're going to kick you out before you leave us! So how does it feel huh, Max? To be betrayed by your family? At least we told you! Unlike you, who was going to leave without us even knowing!"Screamed Nudge, who was now crying.
Heh, that's funny. I was the one that was being kicked out and she's the one that's crying. But I don't blame her; I was ready to burst into tears to.
"What? Why in the world would I leave you guys?" I said, Outraged. Where could they have heard that? And how could they possibly believe it?
" Because you somehow think that we're just slowing you down, that we're just useless little birdies that follow you around because we got nowhere else to go. You think that you could do so much better in everything without us, don't you? Well I think your pathetic and cruel. You're nothing without us! " said Gazzy, and it hurt my heart to see my little trooper yelling those spiteful words at me. It hurt. A lot.
"Who told you that? How could you possibly think that I would think that?" I all but whispered. I couldn't take it anymore. What the f*ck was happening?
"I did"
I looked around, trying to find the owner of the voice. It strangely sounded exactly like mine. But I know that I didn't say that.
Then, I finally saw it.
Out of the darkness and into the room, came Max 2.
