I had an idea on how life would be like for Max if it didn't really turn out for the best after the world knowing about the Trangenics. In this reality, the human race shuns all the Trangenics, and Seattle isn't a safe place anymore. Every one is forced to leave. Max stays behind in hopes of living a normal life.

This is a short, one time story.

Max stood on the top of the Seattle Space Needle looking out at the sitting, not really caring that it was raining. If it had been any other day, the female X5 would have been bothered by it, but not after the day she had today. Today, she had gotten fired from Jam Pony, lost her apartment, and got into a huge fight with Logan over Alec, which ended him in leaving Seattle for good. Then to top it off, she and Alec had a very large argument.

Max walked down to the edge and looked down at the empty street far below her. The tears slowly started to fall but she didn't notice them. She lifted her arms and stretched forward to look even farther.

"Don't even think about it," a voice called out, as a hand grabbed her arm and pulled her away from the side. Max then turned to see Alec standing there drenched. "We need to talk."

"About what?" Max asked, as she pulled her arm free. "I thought that you said your piece before."

"Yeah, and it was only after you left, that I realized that I may have said some very horrible things back then. I never meant to hurt you Max."

"That's what Logan said, before he booked it out of here." Max ran a hand through her hair. "Funny, that's what everybody said, before they left. Sketchy, Orinigal Cindy, Biggs, Joshua..." She would have kept going if Alec hadn't cut her off.

"They left for their own reasons, Max. You didn't drive them away. They were heart broken when you didn't go with them."

"It just got to complicated to live here anymore. It wasn't safe for Joshua."

" Think of it this way, Max. Joshua is safe. Biggs and Cece are taking good care of them, and I heard that CeCe is expecting twins."

"Yeah, I heard that from Mole before he and the last of the Transgenics took off. We're the last ones left here in the city."

"I know." Max sat down and Alec followed her actions. "I'm sorry about you losing your job, your apartment, and your bike."

"Today hasn't been my day."

"No, it really hasn't." Alec slid an arm around her shoulder and pulled her close to his side. "But I'm here, Max."

"For how long?" She looked over at him, with a frown. "A few hours, days, months?"

"I was thinking as long as you could handle being around me, Max." He then kissed her gently on the forehead. "I kinda like it here. Too much rain for my taste, but it's okay."

"As long as I can handle you?" She looked up into his hazel eyes with her brown ones. "I think that might be a very long time."

"That sounds wonderful." Alec lowered his head and gently kissed Max. "I love you, Max." Max frowned, and his smile quickly faded. "What's wrong?"

"You love me?"

"Yes."

"You sure?"

"Yes, I'm really sure." He ran a hand along side her face. "It only took the idea of losing you forever for me to realize that. I want to spend the rest of my life with you, Max."

"Then I guess, I have something to confess." Alec's eyes twinkled, and she smiled. "I'm in love with you too."

"Yes." Alec punched the air above his head before pulling Max into a hug. "Well, we have one problem solved."

"And what would that be?"

"You can stay at my place for now. I'll talk to Normal about giving you your job back."

"That sounds wonderful." Max rested her head on his shoulder. "Alec, are we going to be okay?"

"Yeah, Max, I think we are. If the two of us, stay together, we'll be fine. In due time, I'm sure we can go visit everybody. CeCe wants you to be a godparent or something for the little one."

"So somewhat like a normal life."

"Yeah, something like that."

"That sounds nice."
