Hay people how ya doin?

I own nothing but my little imagination that is creating this story line. Well maybe not even that but I hope you enjoy :D I'm almost bubbling over with excitement…only because I love the song I'm listening to hehehe.

Just a small town girl
Living in a lonely world
She took the midnight train going anywhere

Max grabbed a duffle bag and ran. It was a small town; you know the kind where everyone goes to sleep by eleven. Everything was calm and quiet at this time of night.

She briskly checked the ticket in her pocket. Midnight was the only time eyes weren't on her. Her train was loading just as she approached. With a sullen step she crossed the thresh hold, and climbed on to the train stairs. Turning back with one last look at the town she was leaving forever.

There was no lovely family standing and waving, wishing her well. For once Max just pretended that she was loved, that they were there, and that they were begging her to return safely.

She let out her shaky breath, doubt and excitement over throwing her as she proceeded on through the train isles. She picked a seat towards the back, and slumped low in her seat. She felt like she was riding a roller coaster for the first time as the train picked up speed.

It was simply adrenalin running through her, she wasn't afraid of the speed. Her "mother" would be worried, but not for Max, just that people would find out about her little secret.

She had been rescued from a lab when she was ten. She was then sent to live with her biological family, who at first loved her. But of course, they soon grew wary of the burden of housing a child with wings. She was always breaking things and wanting to fly when she shouldn't. Not to mention the fact that they had to carry this horrid secret with them everywhere they went.

So max did what she found best for them all, got on the midnight train going anywhere.

Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train going anywhere

Fang stood looking in the broken mirror. Dark circles lined his sleepless swollen eyes. He grabbed up his leather backpack and skidded out of the deserted subway bathroom. He once called this place home but never again, now was his chance for a new start.

The sound of his sneakers hitting the pavement ricocheted off the walls of the dark alleys. He pulled his black hood over his head, and then stuffed his hands in his hoody pockets to keep the cool night air out. His hands circled around his train ticket as he walked faster.

He knew the streets well enough. Some would say he was born and raised in Detroit, which is true. He was born in a lab under the streets of south Detroit. Raised is where they got a little misguided, it was more like conformed into half bird, half boy.

Sure he had been running from the psychos ever sense he escaped a few months ago, but he hadn't had the chance to leave the city, till now.

He had spent the whole night gambling in an underground casino, with not much luck till he won a midnight ticket out of this hell hole.

He went through the train station on full alert as he went through the lines of people. Finally he climbed the steps of his midnight train without looking back. The train was mostly empty. There was a greasy looking man who needed a shower towards the front, and an older woman sitting in the middle, surrounded by a cloud of smoke.

Fang held his breath as he made his way to the back. There was a young blond girl that sent his heart skipping, slouched in her seat. Calmly and coolly he slipped in beside her. She was startled at first and eyed him warily.

"I'm Fang." He reached out his hand to shake hers.

"Max." she said as she shook his hand.

"So where you headed Fang?" she asked as she sat up straighter. "Anywhere but here." He wasn't much for smiling, but for her he would get used to it.

Max body shifted from her seat as the train came to another screeching halt. She held on to the arm rest to keep herself seated. She had to get off somewhere, but she wasn't quite sure where that would be.

"So what's your story?" Fang asked with a curious glance. She let her breath out slowly as she sized him up once more. He wore all black, and had a leather bag resting next to him. Dark circles ran beneath his eyes, and his skin was pale from not having enough sunlight. And he was asking for my story.

"What do you mean? I don t have a story." She sat straighter in her seat. What would he know any ways.

"Run away?" Maybe he knew a little, but she wouldn't let it show.

"What would make you think that?" she held her breath praying he would be way off.

"Just a guess. Pretty accurate wasn't it? You don't sound like you are from a city, or the country. So I figure some small town from around. I figured you were probably going to visit some relative, but your bag is a duffle bag without folded clothes, which ya know what ever, but you clothes you're wearing show signs of a mom who likes things tidy, so I guessed run away." He smiled at his perfect knowledge.

Her mouth dropped open in disbelief as she turned to look at the half zipped duffle bag next to her. He was right. But she shut her mouth and pulled on a calm cool expression. "Nothing gets past you." He smirked and shrugged.

"I'm going to band camp, my cloths are unfolded because I just ruffled through them before you boarded, but the rest was pretty accurate."

"Where is your instrument?"

"At the camp."

"Oh … what do you play?"

He was quite the interrogator wasn't he? She rolled her eyes. "Piano… do you always make girls feel like they are being interrogated?"

He smiled. "You're right sorry." He rested his head against the seat and shut his eyes. "So what is your story?" she asked as curiosity stole over.

He smiled slightly. "I'm running away." She laughed, he certainly had no shame.

Please review! I don't own the story line either. The story line is in the song, but I'm going to put an imaginative twist in it so I hope you enjoy and like it and will decide to review, I know I could be more descriptive but I was just introducing my two main characters. So please review!! I need some motivation!
