Hey everyone! Before you read the story I just want to say a few things.
1st is: I am a new writer, and have no doubts mistakes will be made. If you have suggestions on how to improve my writing or story it is more then welcome. As well your complaints.
2nd: This story is based on the Maximum Ride BOOKS and how I view each character. Yes there will be many parts about the characters that the books state. Such as being a talky box, brave, quiet, and other personality traits but also how I see them such as physical appearance and parts of the character that isn't named or said but maybe hinted. If you do not agree I fully support you stating and even proving that certain qualities I give, for example I may think one character has short instead of long hair but the book may say they have long hair, aren't true. But please don't shame me or anyone else's opinions in inappropriate ways. Things like saying "Your stupid" or No dumbass it's like… or they look like…" and other ways.
3rd: If you here for sex please look somewhere else and don't ask me to write some. I may do that just not on this story so look out for those kind of things! The most you will see is the kind of sexual contact in the books, which isn't sex. The most that is, and will be, written is kisses, hugs, hand holding, and other things as such.
4th: If there is any grammar mistakes please ignore them or just simply say something like: Hi! I just thought you should know you made a mistake, (insert mistakes), on (insert paragraph number) and I will be happy to fix it! Same thing goes with spelling. I tend to go over my writing multiple times so there shouldn't be much if any but things get by.
5th: I will update as much as possible. P will update as much as possible but I am a little lazy. I plan to update this story at least once a month during school time, and probably more during breaks. If I am discontinuing or taking down the story I will tell you.
6th: Some chapters, (spoiler warning!) when angel is in the school or when fang is not involved, I may do some word for word. I do not mean this in any harmful way, since this the book done from what I think Fang's POV would be, I feel it would be important to the story.
7th: There is some cussing! Nothing extensive like the "N-word", "C-word", or "T-word", just some common ones such as piss, shit, damn, hell (not in religious speaking), and (although I don't think so) maybe even fuck.
Cussing won't be so common where it is in every paragraph or sentence, it may not even be in every chapter, but you should know that if you are sensitive to those sort of words.
8th: If you have not read the original book called "Maximum Ride The Angel Experiment" by James Patterson, then go read it. It is probably much better than this as it was made by the person who created the universe and fully understands it while I may (although I think I do) not.
Anyway lets get on the story. If you haven't read the description here it is: This is the 1st book of the Maximum Ride series except… from Fang's POV! Or what I would think his POV would be if it was. Rated T.

Prologue:
Congratulations. The fact that you're reading this means you've taken one giant step closer to surviving till your next birthday. Yes, you, standing there leafing through these pages. Do not put this book down. I'm dead serious - your life could depend on it.
This is my story, the story of my family, but it could just as easily be your story too. We're all in this together; trust me on that.
I've never done anything like this, so I'm just going to jump in, and you try to keep up.
Okay. I'm Fang. I'm fourteen. I live with my family who are five kids not related to me by blood, but still family.
We're - well we're kind of amazing. Not to sound full of myself or anything, but we are very different compared to what many people consider normal.
Not "average" in any way! The six of us - Max, Iggy, Nudge, the Gasman, and Angel - were made on purpose by the worst people who call themselves "scientist" on the planet earth. The created us as an experiment. One where we ended up 98% human. And that other 2 percent? Well.. you could say it has a BIG impact.
We grew up in a science lab/prison called "The school." In cages. Like Fucking lab rats. It's a wonder how we speak, or even think, at all. But we can - and so much more you can't even imagine.
There is one other sick experiment you need to know about. Well… one other that made it past infancy. Half human, half wolf, yet all predator… the Erasers. Yeah, they're tough, smart, hard to control. All that jazz. Look human most of the time yet when they get in the mood, or even feel like it, they are capable of morphing into wolfmen. I guess kind of like a werewolf but know exactly what and when they are doing something. And yes, they are complete with the fur, claw, and fang package. The school tends to use them as guards, police, - and executioners.
To them, we're six moving targets, prey smart enough to be a challenge. They want to rip out our throats out. And make sure the world never knows we exist. And there you have it. Our past and our threats. Or at least part of it.
Now I'm not lying down yet. I'm telling you, right? This story could be about you, or your children. If not today, then soon. So please take this seriously. I'm risking everything that matters to me by telling you. But you need to know.
So keep reading. And don't let Anyone stop you.
-Fang. And my family: Max, Iggy, Nudge,
the Gasman, and Angel
Welcome to our Nightmare.

Ok, there you go that was the prologue, now here is Chapter 1.

Chapter 1
Do you know what's fantastic about being a mutant freak thanks to some crazy butt hole scientists is? You get to run from some other mutant freaks made by crazy butt hole scientists! Do you know what's great about life and death situations? You automatically become better than your usual self. You're able to get a feel for your life situations. Don't believe me? Take what's happening right now for example.
"Ok listen to me, Fang. I am going to unlock the cage. You are NOT going attack me, and I need you to run over to Iggy. Lead him out towards the back doors. You'll find Max on the way who is going to have all the keys you need. All labeled. When you get out the back doors get into the black Chevrolet Camaro ok? Max also has a picture of it if you need extra reassurance. It will be towards the back exit from the parking garage."
Usually, I would get back against the back of the cage and try not to leave my horrible cage for a home. But Jeb always helped Iggy and I. And Max. I have only seen her a couple of times, but she seems trustworthy and is someone like us.
I nodded ready to run for not only mine but Iggy's life as well.
"Good," Jeb said "I will meet you there. Run and don't stop for anyone or anything except Max and Iggy. I have temporarily turned off the silent alarms, but guards will still be patrolling so be careful. When you leave the building, however, alarms will ring, and you will only have a minute to unlock, get in, and lock the door of the car."
"Ok' I croaked. My voice was sore from the horrible food they gave us and the yelling I did during their awful tests. But I would have to speak often for my blind brother Iggy.
"Alright. It's going to be ok. I promise. Now let's go." Jeb had stated while trying to unlock our cages. As soon as the door open, I burst out running toward Iggy. I grabbed his hand and said a short "Ready?". He nodded and starting jogging down the corridors not really caring where that scientist was. He may have let us out, but for all, I know it could be another test, but if there is a way out, you can bet I'm gone.
I rounded a corner only to stop in my tracks having Iggy fall to the floor in confusion. Right in front of were to guards. They were talking about some 'new experiments.' I looked down at Iggy in time to place my hand over his mouth. I whispered as quietly as possible a moved his head forward "Guards." I ran my hand, and he closed his mouth. I helped him off the floor, and we walked backward slowly down the corner. We jogged as quietly as possible into a hallway we had ignored.
We kept going for a while following the occasional signs towards what we thought was the backdoor to the parking garage. We stopped to rest when we heard something.
"Subject 20394, 20396 and 20401 are missing from their cages." It came from a deep voice. I looked behind the corner we had just run from and found a guard walking out of a doorway. "We had just gone in to collect them for the next test, and they were gone. Security cameras and silent alarms had been shut down. Someone must have tampered with them" He spoke into a microphone, probably whatever those devices they used to communicate. I think they called it a Walkie Talkie — something stupid like that.
"Impossible! Are you sure? Check again." This time it came from the device — another male voice but not nearly as deep or gruff. "Yes, I'm sure boss. I have called out the men to do a full search and security reboot".
"Good." With that, the conversation ended, and I whispered to Iggy to the location of the closest hiding spot. He found it easily. I pulled off one of my catheters used for experiments in my arm and threw it down the other hallway and dove next to Iggy. My arm had started bleeding a bit, but by now I was used to my blood. The Guard had turned around and started walking down the hallway.
Just as he started to pass by our hallway and stopped, he took in a deep breath and… Growled?! I felt Iggy flinch but before he could say something I covered his mouth with a finger signaling silence. The guard turned down the hallway. He walked by and stated, "Come out, come out wherever you are!" He smiled.
"I know you're there… the air reaks of fear." I watched as his feet walked past us. We waited as the seemingly never-ending silence dragged on. I pulled Iggy's arm, and we both crawled out. And I looked down the hallway. I turned around to head the opposite direction of him.
When we turned around, just as if we were in some cliché movie trip, he was there. I watched as transformed into a wolf-like form. Teeth formed into fangs. Nails, claws. Hair appeared in places it shouldn't have. He gave off a hiccuping rumbling sound in his throat almost like a laugh, it seemed wrong to me but who knows, after all, we have been cooped up in this place our whole lives, where people rarely laughed or smiled. We screamed and ran until we ran into a door. The exit! We burst through just to run into more Erasers and a captured human who was referred to as Max.
Well, there you go! Chapter one. I hope you liked it. Chapter two will be up soon. I am going to work on it as soon as this is posted. So hang tight! Bye now!
