Hey this is my first story and I actually am Dyslexic so excuse the spelling errors. Spell check only goes so far. Ha-ha! The story takes place some where between book one and three of the Maximum Ride Series and after Blood of Olympus in the Heroes of Olympus Series. For the purposes of the story plot I'm altering Max's and Fang's age to 17 and leaving Iggy at 14. Those are jest for reader orientation so it is not a complete mind fuck. P.S. I tend to swear a lot and intend to reflect that in my weighting. Don't worry though I wont have the main cast of our beloved books cursing too much because they don't in the books. I intend to TRY and stick as close to their personalities as possible. Enjoy!

Chapter 1

POV: Percy

I rolled over on the hard ground my eyes still shut. What jest happened? I wondered. The last thing i remembered was being at the movies with Annabeth.

Annabeth! The one word shocked my scenes and I sat bolt upright. That was my first mistake. The second I sat up my head hit the low ceiling and nocked me flat onto my back again.

Ow. I slowly opened my eyes and rubbed my head. looking around for the first time I saw I was in a dog crate.

Well crap. I thought. I reached into my pocket to pull out Riptide out to cut open the cage door but was shocked to find all my pockets empty.

Zeus dam it! I thought with exasperation. I didn't even know how it was possible for Riptide not to reappear in my pocket.

After some desperate tugs on the cage door I sat back in despair.

"Finally." A voice to my right said. "You decided to take a chill pill."

I whiled my head around and noticed my cage was not the only one in the room. Next to me was a brown haired girl who looked about my age. She sat calmly in her cage as if it was totally normal to be locked in a dog cage.

"What?" I asked, still confused by the comment.

The girl met my eyes. "The cages are strong enough to hold an eraser if necessary." she said in a Be intimidated. way but all I thought of was a pencil eraser in dog crate. Why? Mentally asked at the image in my head.

"Good to know." I said wearily. Is this a nut house? I thought. I looked around again. It shore didn't look like Bellevue hospital to me. Since I had no one to my left I was left with only the crazy brown hared girl to get information from. "Where are we?" I asked praying she didn't say something out in left field like 'In candy land of course!'

"The School." She responded.

Yup. I thought. She is definitely crazy. "Look." I said. "This doesn't look much like a school to me."

Thats cuz it's not." She said.

"But you jest said-"

She Interrupted me. "It's a top secret lab for experiments on Mutated DNA life forms."

"Definitely doesn't sound like a school." I said.

She shook her head. "Thats jest a nickname by the inmates."

"Inmates?" I asked.

"Us." She said. I under stood.

"What's your name?" I asked.

She stared at me for ascend then said "Max."

"Nice to meat you Max." I said. "Im Percy."

Before she could respond however the doors to the room we were in flung wide open and entered some guys in very stereotypical white Mad Scientist Coats. They garbed my cage saying something about test subject 8 and then they garbed Max's cage and something about using subject 1 for the new social experiment. Our cages were placed on a cart and wheeled out of the room.

When we finally stopped they un locked my cage and pulled me out by the shirt collar and slammed me down on an operating table where metal shackles clamped down on my limbs.

"Get off me!" I shouted. I reached out in my mind for any near by water sources. There was none. Well i made it a good 17 years. I thought. I looked over at Max, who was still in her cage. Through the bars of the cage door I noticed some thin I guess I over looked. There were feathery things hanging from her back. I was about to ask her what they were when a man in a doctor's outfit entered.

"Jeb." Max said with scorn.

Jeb ignored her. This seamed to piss her off even more.

"June 8th." Jeb spoke into a tape recorder. "Test subject 8 ready for post birth injection. modification 36 should correct for the failure of test subject 7."

"Dude? Seriously? A tape recorder?" I asked. He ignored me too.

"This also provides a good opportunity for hybrid social experiment 22." he continued. "Beginning the procedure." He said taking a step towards me and picking up a syringe. he proceeded to cut off my shirt with a pair of scissors (Not cool. it was a birthday gif from my Mom and Paul.) and to inject the syringe right into my chest.

"YO!" I screamed as the giant needle entered my chest and injected the orange liquid.

"Growth execration is now being administered."Jeb said calmly as he pulled out an even bigger syringe full of blue liquid.

"Oh, Hell no!" I screamed before he again injected me in the chest. This needle hurt more and the minute he pushed down on the plunger my hole body started to hurt.

"Awaiting results." He said to the tape recorder as he unlocked Max's cage and left the room. As the door locked in back of him my shackles sprang open and retracted into the table.

Max approached me wearily. "You ok?" She asked.

"Ow." I answered. "What was that stuff?"

"I don't know." she answered. "Something orange and than a blue grow faster thing."

"Gee, thanks." I said. she tilted her head at me in concern.

"Can you sit up?" She asked.

"I'll try." I said. But when I went to move the pain got worse. I fell back to the table grimacing.

"Percy?" Max asked. "What wrong? Where does it hurt?"

It hurt every where but I couldn't speak. My jaw had locked up from the pain and my vision was tunneling. The last thoughts I had before I blacked out were of Annabeth as Max bent over me trying to keep me awake.

Hay thanks for reading this. Like I said this is my first so pleas critique me and sent me things you would do differently of how to improve it. THX.
