Chapter One Of Cookies and Doorbells

I stepped into my house. Even after all these years it still astounded me that I- Maximum Ride- had a House. It was mine, and mine alone. No one else lived here. Years ago the chief of police did. But after his daughter left he couldn't stand it in Forks. Not for long at least.

Seventeen years ago when I came to Forks the guy still lived here, he had promised me this house. And so when I turned eighteen, Charlie Swan, left. I never met his daughter, Bella. Though, he had left a picture of her for me, in case she ever came back. But I knew she wouldn't.

When I came to Washington it was by complete accident. Fang betrayed me, and the Flock had disappeared. It was sufficient to say that I wasn't thinking straight. I allowed myself to become exhausted while flying- after all I had nothing to lose, except my life. And I wasn't too sure that that was a bad thing.

The sun had just set and it started to rain. I didn't even fight the wind which caused me to crash land in some ones back yard. My right wing bent under me, breaking easily. The next morning a man found me and carried me inside. His name was Jared, and he was second in command of the Quileute werewolf's pack.

I was out for two whole days. They found a simple note in my right hand, telling them who I was. The note read;

It was for your own good Max.

-Fang



They were all pretty cool about the whole ordeal. When I came to a girl-Kim- was the only one there. She while she was waiting Kim was eating chocolate chip cookies, which was the first thing I noticed as I opened my eyes.

When I saw those cookies everything that I had ever done to protect myself went out the window. "Can I have one?" I asked as her eyes got bigger and bigger. She handed me the whole plate, which I devoured with glee.

As I ate the girl stared at me. She handed me another plate full of cookies after the first ran out. Out of nowhere she handed me a glass of milk. I chugged it. When I sat the cup on the bedside table I looked at her, a mustache prominent on my upper lip. She burst out laughing at my expression as I realized the plate was empty.

The oven dinged, pulling me from my thoughts. Kim would be here any minuet for lunch. Not that I cooked anything myself- besides the cookies. Earlier Seth Clearwater had brought over the lasagna that his mother made. All I had to do was set it on the table and serve.

I sat the cookies on a tray too cool when the doorbell rang. I opened the door, a huge smile on my face, when I looked at the person in front of me I slammed the door in their face. I blinked at the now closed door, my heart racing and my mind blank.

A/N SO what did you think? Good? Bad? Plz Review! Originally I did have more but my sister (the evil Mrs.EdwardCu11en) agreed that a cliffy was good. sooooo did you think it good (the cliffy)? And who is that mysterious character that got the door shoved in their face?
