This is my first fanfic!

Disclaimer: I don't own Maximum Ride, JP does! (I really wished I did though)

Chapter 1

"Max… Max…" a familiar voice called, repeating my name softly. I through a pillow in the direction of the voice after it repeated my name for the 11th time. (Yeah I was counting deal with it!) I heard a satisfying whoosh of her breath as it hit, Score!

"MAXIMUM RIDE!" Ella screamed in my freaking ear. I was fully awake and alert as I jumped up, glaring at my smiling sister. She flinched, Ha Ha!

"What the crap do you want Ella at…" I peeked at the clock on my bedside table. In big green letters it read 6:10 a.m. I frowned. "6 o'clock in the morning!" I yelled.

"You forgot?" she laughed, what?

She must have seen my confusion because she started laughing harder than soon caught her breath and got up from the floor and turned to me. Yeah she thought it was seriously that funny she ended up on the floor. I don't get my sister.

"It's our first day of our new school here, so get up mom's driving us," she stated what was that in her voice? Oh yeah she stated it cheerfully, ugh to much pep in the morning!

We moved here a week ago from Arizona to sunny California! My mom Valencia Martinez is a vet who got a better job here. Ella my 14 year old half-sister is a freshman and I'm a sophomore at 16.

My mom says I have to make friends in this one, but I was never the person to make friends I was the troublemaker of the school, the class clown, and the one who's not afraid to say what she really thinks... (Otherwise the truth cause I'm always right! ;) )

I slowly arose trudging down the stairs to see my mom in the living room on the phone when she saw me she smiled. I grabbed a bowl of cereal and got ready.

-Time skip-

I got out of the car with Ella at my side, as soon as we walked through the front doors, everyone stopped and just stared at us, no at me...

I was wearing black skinny jeans, knee high combat boots, and a avril lavigne concert tee. Nothing to stare at so why are they stareing! Heck if I know...

A couple minutes later everyone just went back to whatever they were doing, I took my sisters hand and dragged her to the office.

At the front desk sat an old lady that was slumped in her rolly chair looking over a teen magazine. She looked up at us.

"What do you want? I'm busy here can't you see!" The lady grumbled.

"Yeah the names Maximum Ride and Ella Martinez and we would like our schedules if you would be nice enough to give it to us," I smirked innocently.

She rolled her eyes and handed me a piece of paper and I walked out, splitting up with Ella to go to our lockers.

I walked to my locker and set my bag behind me as I fiddled with my lock. I heard a "oof" from behind me and turned to see a boy on the ground a foot away from my bag.

"You might want to watch where your going next time!" I snickered.

He slowly got up and stood in front of me, he was a very tall skinny guy who had strawberry blond hair almost covering his clouded light blue eyes.

He cleared his throat and looked slightly above my head. I whistled, "yoo hoo i'm down lower..."

He sighed, "are you new here?"

"Yeah why?" I said raiseing an eyebrow.

"Well let me tell you who I am the names James Griffith, but you can call me Iggy, and i'm blind..." He trailed off and he smiled slightly.

I felt bad,"oh i'm so sorry I didn't know... um by the way my names Maximum Ride, but you can call me Max, yeah i'm new here moved from california."

He smirked, "it's ok, cool name by the way!"

"Thanks sooo Iggy where you going now?"

"English, with Mr. Hanson,You?"

"Me too, wanna walk down there?" He smiled and nodded.

We were walking down the hall and stepped in the door.

"Ah you must be Mr. Griffith, and Mrs..." A short plump man with glasses said as we stepped in the door.

"Ride," I told him standing there awkwardly as the class just stared at us, no actually (once again) me.

"Ah Maxine Ride, You and James can sit there in the back," I mentally groaned, he called me by the name that bugs the crap out of me.

"It's Maximum Ride, call me Max..." I said to the teacher, he looked suprised at first but quickly got back to the rules. I rolled my eyes.

So the toture begins...

A/N: soo how'd you like it? I know its really slow right now, but it gets better...
