Hey, this is my first fanfiction. I love Maximum Ride and The Hunger Games. This takes place during Catching Fire and before The Angel Experiment. Enjoy!

Disclaimer- I do not own any of the characters from The Hunger Games or Maximum Ride.

Max's POV

The funny thing about time travel is that it really snaps everything into perspective. I'd better explain myself first. That morning I had gotten a call from Jeb saying that he needed me and the rest of the flock to meet him at his lab ASAP. At first I was reluctant to see Jeb again, but the kids finally convinced me So Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gazzy, Angel, and I flew to Jeb's house. Jeb opened the door and gave us a smile, which I quickly turned frown with a scowl. Then Jeb escorted us to his lab. "You see," Jeb explained, "I've been trying to branch out my span of science. Now normally I just work with DNA mutations, but lately I've been working on a different project. It has taken me a long time, but finally, I have invented this!" Jeb pulled a tarp down from a large object, and under it was one of the craziest contraptions I had ever seen. It was covered in bright beeping lights and flashing levers.

"What is it?" asked Iggy.

"I was just about to ask the same thing," I responded.

"This is a time machine," said Jeb. "This device can take you anywhere in the past or the future. I actually made two just in case."

"Cool," said Fang," but I still don't know why we're here."

"I need the six of you to test out the machine," explained Jeb.

"Yes!" shouted Gazzy, " We can go to the future and see all of the robots and flying cars and hovercrafts and cyborgs and maybe there will be aliens and"

"Whoa, slow down Gasman," I said, "We don't even know what time period Jeb wants to take us too." We all looked at Jeb. He appeared to be deep in thought.

"Truthfully, I wouldn't mind if you went to the future. Who knows, maybe the entire human race will be made up of bird kids 300 years from now?" Jeb gave a little laugh, but we all knew that that would be his dream. So then, the six of us climbed into the time machine while Jeb began to press some buttons. "Oh, I almost forgot," Jeb exclaimed, "I want one of you to take notes on what the future is like." Nudge's hand immediately shot up in the air and Jeb handed her a notebook and a pencil. "So once you get there, spend a little time, walk around, observe the future, but don't stay too long. The future is a dangerous place."

"I just want to meet some robots!" exclaimed Gazzy. So, Jeb made the final preparations and then hit the switch that sent us hurdling 300 years into the future.

Fang's POV

If someone asked me what time traveling was like, I would describe it as this. It feels like you are on a giant roller coaster going 100 miles an hour while someone is tasering your butt. So ya, not the most relaxing feeling. When we finally stopped, I looked around to make sure everyone was ok. Angel was holding on to her brother for dear life, while Gasman had a crazy look in his eye. Nudge was trying to fix her hair, because the time traveling had made it all frizzy. Iggy was covering his eyes which I found kind of stupid because he couldn't see anyways. I looked at Max who was sitting next to me, and saw that she was squeezing my hand so hard, that I thought it might explode. I kind of liked the feeling of her strangling my hand to death.

"So," I stood up and said, "Who's ready to see the future?" Everyone nodded and stood up. I pushed open the door and looked out at the area. We were in a wood. I saw Nudge jot down, "Trees still exist," on her notepad. Gazzy was standing in the back (as we usually made him) and couldn't see anything.

"Hey!" he cried," I want to see the robots too!" We let him step forward so he could see, and his face quickly fell. "Awwwwwww, what a buzz kill."

"Maybe it's not that bad," said Max," come on, let's go see if we can find anything." The flock and I walked for a little bit until we reached a fence. It said that it was highly electrified, so we just flew over it. We finally came across a town, but it was nothing like I expected. Instead of seeing robots everywhere and flying cars, we saw what could easily be a colonial town. But we went into the future, not the past. It seemed like surrounding us was dirty people, crummy houses, and coal. So much coal. Everywhere you looked there was either a coal mine, miners going to work, or just coal on the ground. The six of us walked down the street, with Nudge scribbling in her notepad furiously. Seriously, I think this was the quietest she had ever been.

"Hey Max, I'm hungry, and thirsty, and I want to stop waking." Spoke too soon.

"Ok Nudge," Max responded," but I don't know if there are any McDonald's or Papa John's around here."

"What about over there?" Angel asked. We looked over and saw a building that said Bakery on the front.

"That'll work," said Max. We walked towards the shop and heard a little bell as I pushed the door open. I didn't see anyone there, but then someone popped up from behind the counter. It was a boy who looked about 16 or 17 and had blonde hair and blue eyes. He must have just been baking because his hands and shirt were covered in flour.

"Hi," the boy said, "What can I get you?" he asked us. The muffins looked good, but I saw a basket of rolls that looked like they had cheese on them. Yum! Before I could tell the kid what I wanted, I heard a lady yell from upstairs.

"Did you finish frosting the cakes?" she yelled. The boy sighed and turned toward the back of the bakery.

"No mom, I'm kind of busy helping customers."

"Peeta Mellark, you finish frosting that cake this instant. Don't make me come down there!" He rolled his eyes and then yelled back,

"Whatever mom! But my break's in 10 minutes!" I still couldn't believe that this was 300 years in the future. I mean, aside from having a name like Peeta, this kid was just like any other teenage boy. This future was not what I expected at all.

So pleeeeeeeeaaasseeee review and tell me what you think. I will have more chapters coming soon. Favorite and Review for more chapters.
