Nudge and Max sat there, in the cab quietly. neither of them spoke. They both had come back from a nightmare that neither of them wanted to relive. But the scars on both their bodies told a different story. Max remembered the horror of that place. Max 7 Nudge's old foster home. Where they were forced to be strapped down to cold steel tables and where they had needles pushed into them. Where they were beaten & abused. now they both sat unmoving in a cab. this cab was taking them to their new home where they were suppose ably going to be loved by a real person. this woman had adopted them. all they know is that her last name is Martinez. she is a single mother with 4 sons.
