-Hello, and welcome to my first Maximum Ride Fanfic. I know, it's short. But I hope you like it anyway.
DISCLAIMER: I don't own anything but a broken computer! This isn't even my comp!
----------------------------------------------------------------
Sometimes it all seems pointless. I mean, we run. We fight off erasers. We try to scrape together enough food to survive. I'm not usually one to complain, but I need a break sometimes. I need a way out. Sometimes... I feel like I just can't go on. Like, if we were to die, who would miss us? Who would even know? Nobody. Except maybe my voice.
But... would the voice die with me? I don't know, and I can't help but wonder about it. Is the Voice a seperate entitiy? An alter ego? I don't know, and it sure isn't telling.
Anyway, nothing seems like it really matters. Even if all the erasers, and the school, and all the whitecoats were to disappear, what would we do? If we lived among normal humans...and our wings were discovered, we would be forced back on the run. And trust me, we can't go and live among hawks and falcons, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't accept us either. So, we are alone.
The flock thinks I'm strong. They think I'm a strong leader, and I suppose I am. But, I've failed so many times. Why do they trust me so much still? I guess I'll never know for sure.
I guess times like this, late at night thinking about things... I realize I owe them everything. They are my everything, and watching them safely sleeping under the stars is my reason to keep going. Even when the going gets tough.
