Max POV

I heard a car door slam outside our new safe-house. The person didn't bother knocking: the door slammed open. "Oh, hey Dr M!" I heard Gazzy say. Crap. I gulped loudly and hid behind Fang. It has been only a week since we blew up the school. Two blurs raced in front of me and one of them stopped. The other hesitated but then kept going. Skyler/Tyler (whichever one it was) was standing in front of me and Fang, with little Waverly sleeping in her arms.

"Max, you had better run. Dr M is so mad. Quick, we need you alive!" and with that, she was gone again in a blur.

"Help Fang," I whimpered. All the traitor did was chuckle.

"MAXIMUM!"

"Yes, mum?" I said, giving up.

"Come here! Front and centre!" she yelled.

"Come with me?" I pleaded. Fang hesitated, but then nodded. I took a deep breath and flew down the stairs. Crap, mum was mad. She doesn't know about Fang or his flock, so I hope she'll go a bit easier when I tell her.

My mother was waiting for me at the bottom of the stairs. Skyler/Tyler was right. She was mad. "Why haven't you answered my calls?" she demanded. "For that matter, why did you blow up that school!"

"Mum, I can explain," I said slowly, trying to calm her down. Where the hell is Fang?

"Well start explaining!" she growled.

"That school you sent me to wasn't normal!"

"Maximum, I DO NOT have the time, patience or money for you to be overly paranoid!"

"Mum, it's true!"

"Can you prove it?"
"Yes!" I said to her, with an edge to my voice that would have the toughest erasers crying for their mommy. As it was, mum flinched and took an involuntary step back. "Guys, I need the proof!" I yelled through the house. No one helped or came to my rescue. Traitors were scared of my mum! Ha! They'll be even more scared of me if they don't help! Angel, I know you can here me! Come here with Waverly and/or the twins right now!

Sorry Max. Don't want anyone getting hurt... Damn you Angel! "Fang Nicholas Ride! Come here right now!" I yelled.

"You better go, man. An angry Max is bad," I heard Iggy whisper. That meant that the rest of the flock actually weren't that far away, watching the show.

"Like I don't already know that..." Fang grumbled.

"Guys, I know you're all watching! Come out right now!" I yelled. I heard several mutants gulp. That's right. Be afraid, be very afraid. Mum still glared at me, like she believed I was putting on a show. Fang was the first out of his hiding spot. Good puppy, er, birdy.

"Fang?" mum asked incredulously. Fang just nodded.

"Fang and I ran into each other-" literally "-at school. The only reason that he and his flock were there was because it was a remaining Itex base that they had to take down!" I said.

"That still doesn't prove anything. Fang is as paranoid as you are!" mum yelled. Geez, I have never seen her this angry before! There was a blur and immediately the twins were standing with Fang and I, Waverly in Skyler/Tyler's arms. "We found one of the twins and the little girl, Waverly, in a secret lab underneath the school," I said calmly. Mum closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

"Please ask for my permission before you blow up secret labs. Maximum Martinez Ride, you and the rest of your flock are grounded! No leaving this house, you understand? Get it? Got it? Good." And with that, mum was out the door and speeding away in her little crappy car.

As soon as mum was out of hearing range, the complaints filled the air. "Come on!" and "No way! We just saved people's lives!" and "Unfair!" rang through the house.

"Hey guys, guess what! All of us in Fang's flock aren't grounded! She only said Max's flock! Suckers!" Roro cheered. I rolled my eyes.

"None of us are grounded, Ro," I said.

"But Dr M said-"

"-Exactly. Dr M said. She did, not me. Besides, when we were grounded, it didn't stop us, did it Fang?" I asked. He smirked and shook his head.

"Ooh, what did you do?" Radar sneered.

"When we were staying with a white-coat called Anne Walker, she grounded us because Gazzy and Iggy set off a stink-bomb at school. It didn't stop me from sneaking out at night," I said. Gazzy and Iggy shared a hi-five. They remembered that stink-bomb. "Ok, guys, just keep doing what you were doing before my psychotic mother showed up," I ordered and then grabbed on to Fang's hand and pulled him up to our room.

I scrolled down on the computer. Fang was absently playing with my hair while I was doing some research. I needed to check that we had gotten rid of all the Itex bases before we moved on to having a holiday. I was searching every name and alias of Itex I could think of, but everything was showing up zilch. That was either a very good thing, or a very, very bad thing. Down at the bottom of the Google search list, a site caught my eye. DelanyMinkerPrince University. I clicked on the link and a page with lots of links came up. As I read through the introduction, I figured out some stuff about this university: It was based in Australia; they had the best science and genetics program, the world over; it was also a military training camp; all of the graduates have become successfully rich scientists, but they won't go into details into what they do or where they work. "Fang, look at this!" I said to him. I handed him the laptop and he read through the page.

"Max, you're forgetting one thing," Fang said, raising his eyebrows at me.

"What?"
"We're grounded. We're not allowed to leave the house, let alone the country." He said it in such a voice; I almost thought he was serious. Almost. We both started laughing but then the door was kicked down. Déjà vu much?

"Guys, pack your bags. We've got another mission."

Yay! Sequel! Hope you guys like the first chapter!
Dylan: hey, there was no me in it! Or Total!
Me: meh, no one cares about you, but they'll probably take Total and possibly Akila with them. Ooh, funny idea!
Dylan: what?
Me: if I tell you now, it'll spoil it for everyone else! Now shut up!
Dylan: no
Me: Dylan, I want you to meet my little baby
Dylan: who?
Me: -loads shotgun- say hi!
Dylan: -gulps- hi! R&R...before she kills me...again!
