Maximum Ride/ Twilight crossover

A/N- Basically, the story is that at some point, Angel had one of her leader moments, kicked Max out and Max flew off to Forks because she knew the flock wouldn't look for her there. The story takes the path of Twilight with Max pretending to be Bella. Okay, I think that's pretty much the story. Oh! Forgot. It's set in Twilight and just after Max.

Disclaimer- I do not in any way, shape or form own Twilight or Maximum Ride. (I mean it's pretty obvious, because if I did, I wouldn't be writing a fanfic, now, would I?)

The title is a reference to the Mcfly song, 'Lies' (which I do not own), and also a reference to my friend, Eve, who thought that 'Lies' was called 'Lies, lies, lies'

That is all, and in true Raven style 'Let the challenge commence!'


Chapter 1

Seriously. I just had to pick this little town, out of all the little towns to wallow in my sadness. It does not stop raining. At. All. I swear they only have an actual sunny day twice a year. Of course, this means that my wings are aching like nothing else, I haven't been flying for near enough four weeks. Ouch. I know your probably thinking, 'Hey, are you crazy? Did you just say you had wings? Do you really have wings? Am I dreaming this up?' Yes, I'm probably crazy, yes, I did say I had wings, yes, I do have wings, and no, you are not dreaming this up. But, you guys will have known that if you had read the other books, if not please go and read now to save me from having to tell the story all over again.

'Bells? You up yet? It's school today!' Charlie shouted up from the kitchen.

'Yeah, just getting ready!'

Okay, I may have been really stupid, but I'm now living with an ex-Itex scientist who got forced into the job. I am now his daughter, who used to live in Phoenix with her mother but decided to come to Forks to see her dad. I'm now Isabella Marie Swan. Well, sort of. I'm actually still Maximum Ride, but I have to go with the flow to stay alive without Flyboys after me every second of the day, which , surprisingly, seems to be working. I'm not sure how, I mean I just dyed my hair brown, but apart from that, I look the same and I've seen them flying about all over the place.

As I walked down the stairs, I could hear the kettle boiling, which meant that coffee was being made, as Je- I mean Charlie seriously dislikes tea. No idea why, I love it and I have withdrawal symptoms whenever I go without it for more than 2 days. Freak.

Anyways, the coffee was being made and I poured myself some Cheerios into a bowl, and then added some milk (oh, lord. It sounds like a cooking show), basically I got some cereal, sat down at the table and picked up the paper. Its pretty much always a whole load of crap, but it's something to keep me from killing myself because of awkward silence. It was the usual, police car chases I already knew about because Charlie was sheriff, awards for the school and some stuff about that new Italian take away that's going to be opening (I was pleased with that one). But, just as I was getting up to go and wash my bowl, I came across a story that caught my interest.

It said:

BIRD KIDS SIGHTED IN SEATTLE

Yesterday, at 5:56am the famous bird kids, or 'flock' were sighted at a local McDonalds in Seattle. They helped the CSM (Coalition to Stop the Madness) last year by doing various airshows and advertising the need to stop pollution and littering, and just generally keep the earth cleaner and healthier. It certainly caught our attention, and the levels of pollution have actually dropped by 26% since last June, which is certainly doing well to slow down global warrming.

The flock ordered 5 large meals each, which has lead us to believe that they need more calories than we need because of their wings and rigorous exercise. We also noticed that the bird-kids were missing one of their members, and their assumed leader, Maximum Ride. None of us know exactly why that is, or indeed where she is, however the rest of them seemed happy enough, so we hope she is safe.

If you have anything to say about this visit or email us at forksdaily if you have any questions or any information regarding the missing 'flock member'.

I dropped my bowl. I was in shock. They were so close, yet so far away. A billion questions rushed through my head. Why were they here? Did they know I was here? Did they come to get me? Did Angel and the others change their mind about me? Did Fang still love me?... But they all looked so happy and so much like a family in the photo (A/N- which is non-existent, but imagine one), no, they couldn't have known I was here, I never told anyone. I'm going to have to learn to deal with the fact that they weren't ever coming back for me.

I cleaned up the mess I made and collected my car keys and school bag from the hall. It was only at this time that I noticed that Charlie had already left for work. He must have gone while I was reading the news. Oh, well. I checked the clock and noticed that I would be late if I didn't leave at that precise moment, and my teachers disliked me enough now, so I decided that I should probably run to the car, because it wasn't really in Bella's nature to be neutral about getting a detention.

Oh, what a fun life I had, now. Instead of running from erasers and flyboys and m-geeks, I was running to school so I didn't get into trouble with my oh-so-dangerous teachers. At least I would get to see Edward. Who was a vampire. Which I hadn't exactly told Jeb/Charlie about. Which I probably should. And who was probably more dangerous than even me, but hey! At least he was kinder than me!
