.:chapter one:.
Max hit her head on the wall.
"Alternatively," Gazzy continued hastily, "we could use it on diversion methods. Same thing."
In her mind, Max repeated her latest action over again. And again. And again.
He and Iggy stood in front of her meeky, their hands by their sides, looking down as if they knew already what the answer to their appeal would be. The way they positioned themselves was so innocent that it seemed hard to believe that they were appealing for something as dangerous as they were.
"Please, Max. We've been looking forward to it for ages. We have everything we need. All we need to do is set it up and it's only very little. Tiny, like a mouse." Iggy held his thumb and index finger about ten centimetres apart to indicate the size.
Pressing her hand to her face, Max sighed. "Look guys, I know you've put time into this, but I simply can't allow it. You know the lecture. I've said it more than ten times."
"But-"
"BUT-"
"But no. I'm not dumb – I know what you mean when you say little. And nobody, not even you two, is allowed to set off a bomb big enough to explode the Statue of Liberty under my watch."
New multi-chapter story. Somewhat inspired by other one-shots I've read, but mostly The First Ten by Tokoloshe Monster (you know that she's completely taken over my fanfiction life? Two of my stories are inspired by her, and one of them is written for her). This one I'm going to actually complete and update every day, because the chapters are short and I've written them all. And I promise to cut down on author's notes, because I know that they're too long.
There will be: some Fax. Some one-sided Miggy. Humour, romance and angst. NOT AH or AU.
Oh, and disclaimer for this chapter and the rest of the story: I don't own Maximum Ride.
