Mutant bird kids and the Upper East Side? Even the idea of that seems preposterous. However, my bird brain (haha, get it?) seems to think that these two worlds could fit together, so here I am. I'm gonna bring it all the way back to the Constance/Saint Jude's era of Gossip Girl, and then wing it from there (another pun I'm on fire!) This is the first story I'm gonna write so please give me some constructive criticism!

Gossip Girl here, your one and only source into the scandalous lives of Manhattan's elite, however, you can say that thing have taken flight in the past few days. A group, or should I say, a flock of children came to the big apple. Why do I say a flock? Well, these aren't just you average Upper East Side children; these are bird-kids, complete with wings. We'll see how these new faces get around at Constance and St. Jude's.
[Max's POV]
The past couple of days in my life have been beyond crazy, and even me, Maximum Ride is feeling overwhelmed. Mom received a call from the agency she worked at, telling us to move into New York, and after lots of debate and complaining, we're here.
I rolled out of bed, walked out of my room, and ran smack into Fang. He caught me with surprising grace, and pulled me back to balance.
"Woah there hotshot, you're that eager for school?" Fang raised an eyebrow and asked.
GULP. SCHOOL. "Uhhh, yeah, just nervous" I managed to squeak out right before I ran into the bathroom.
I've battled countless erasers, saved countless lives, but I could never conquer the place where normal kids go to learn. As you all know, I've had some pretty bad experiences with school in general, having been experimented on as a baby at "The School", having to deal with the Red Haired Wonder with Fang, and the fact that I've never been able to fit in.
Once again, we're going to a preppy private school, but this time we'll be separated. Us girls are going to Constance, and the guys will be attending St. Jude's. Fantastic. I sluggishly finished getting ready and went back to my room.
[Blair's POV]
"DOROTA!" I yelled the second I woke up. I sat up and took off my silk eye mask. Today was the first day of my junior year at Constance, and I was going to make sure I was looking the best, and shining the brightest.
Dorota hurried in my room and brought me my breakfast, while I took out my phone and checked Gossip Girl. "Wait, what?" I cried. "Not a single blast about me? It's the first day of school!" I quickly scrolled down the blog to see the latest blast, and to my surprise, I was met with a bunch of unfamiliar faces. "Bird-kids? They're just freaks taking MY spotlight on MY big day! They'll soon learn not to mess with me." I thought, as an evil smile came across my face.
"Ms. Blair, I think will be best if you leave those bird-kids alone." Dorota chimed in. "I see them on TV once, they save the world!"
"Quiet Dorota, you don't know anything about high school. I'll have to show them who runs this place, or people will question the legitimacy of my reign!" I retorted. "Oh Dorota, you have no idea what's going to be coming their way." The thought of that brought a little smile to my face, and I climbed out of bed.
"So they'll be going to Constance and St. Jude's? Even better." My mind was already fast at work on a scheme to embarrass these newbies, I didn't even hear Dorota droning on about mu boyfriend, Nate.
"You need to look perfect for Mr. Nate on your first day!" Dorota repeated, but I had already decided on the outfit I was going to wear. Prada purse? Check. Saint Laurent jacket? Check. Mark Jacobs shoes? Check. Signature Blair Waldorf headband? Check.
I was ready for my big day, and I was ready for my first takedown.
Alright! So that's the first chapter of the story. I really hope you guys liked it! FYI, this is gonna be a much more drama/romance orientated story than one with lots of action and fighting. If you think this story is your cup of tea, please R&R! It would mean so much for me! Peace.
