Hey guys! This is my first fanfic so go easy on me. Remember, this takes place after the third book. The flock are flying when Iggy hears erasers behind them.
Fang Pov.
"Erasers!" Iggy shouted. We all turned around in time to see 20 erasers flying our way. We took our fighting stance and got ready. I thought the erasers were destroyed when we blew up the School. I guess some of them survived. They stopped 10 yards away from us. "Give us Maximum Ride." What! No way in heck was I letting them take Max away. She stepped forward though. "What do you want with me lunkheads?" Her voice was ice cold, like it always was when she was talking to erasers. "We want you for experiments." "Like I haven't heard that before." "So you aren't coming with us?" The leader eraser smiled evilly while he said that. Something's not right. "No." By the looks of it Max was thinking the same thing I was. The leader eraser's smile grew. "I'm sorry Maximum but if we can't have you nobody can." He said this with fake sincerity. What was going on? Little did I know my life would change completely that day because of the answer.
The eraser took out a gun and pointed it at Max's heart. "No!" I tried to run in front of Max but I was too late. Everyone else in the flock was frozen in place. The eraser fired the gun and walked away. I ran over to where Max lay, bleeding on the ground. "Please Max! Don't die!" I never even got to tell her I love her. She looked up sadly at me. She was smiling. It was a sad and defeated smile, but a smile all the same. "I wish I could live Fang. But he shot me in the heart. I'll miss you though. I'll miss all of you." She's giving up! She's letting it happen! "Max! You can't leave me! I need you! I love you!" Her smile grew. "I love you too Fang. Always have, always will." I didn't realize until I saw tears on Max's face that I was crying. But she wasn't. She was still smiling. "It's over for me Fang. I'm done in this world. It's your turn to lead the flock. I know you can do it. Lead them well." "You have to lead them. I can't do it." I was whispering now. It all hurt too much. "Off course you can. You're my right hand man. You'll do fine." The color was draining out of her face as she said this. She was actually dying. My Max was dying.
"I love you Max. Wait for me in the after life." She nodded her head. The last words out of her mouth were the most beautiful words ever spoken. I'll cherish them forever. "I love you Fang." She smiled one last time at everyone and closed her eyes. She was so beautiful. Even in death. Then she died. Right in my arms, smiling, she died. I lost my heart that day. Max took it with her, where ever she went. I bet she's in heaven. She deserves to be there. Now she really is an angel. My angel. I kissed her forehead. "Goodbye Max."
