"So running away from lover boy are we?" Alec asks from atop the space needle the two of them just looking at the night sky.
"I am afraid to tell him Alec, I don't want him to come after you." Max says putting her head on Alec's shoulder, she snuggled closer to him and he put his arm around her.
"Hey if he does I can take him." Alec says with a smirk.
"I know but I am afraid he will say something bad, I already know he would not understand the breeding program which is why I never told him, but this he would never get." Max says and Alec nods in understanding. The two X5's just sat there in silence for a while. Then Max's pager went off.
"It is Mole." Max says as Alec hands her his cell phone. Sure Max might ignore a page or two from Logan but everyone else knew that she would never miss one from Mole, Joshua, Gem, or Alec.
"Hey Mole what's up?" Max asks.
"Logan is reaming his ugly little ordinary head again and this time he pissed off the techs enough that none of them are here right now to fix the royal mess that Logan has created. He froze up half the systems trying to break a code that Cherish and Greg were working on." Mole says.
"Crap can he just stop touching the computers for once? Alec and I will be right there and we will kindly tell Logan to keep his hands off of the computers we cannot afford to have him mess our stuff up." Max says hanging up.
"What did roller boy do this time?" Alec asks as the two climb down the stairs that seemed to go on forever.
"He froze half the systems. Alec we have to tell him tonight I cannot stand this anymore." Max says making Alec grin.
"I am for it." Alec says as the two get on the back of Max's bike. Soon the two blew through the TC gates and road into the parking garage near CC. The two get off the bike and storm into CC many looking at them with smirks and smiles knowing Max was going to yell. There at the computers was Logan hunting and pecking away, not seeing the death glares Cherish was sending him as Mole, JB, Rex, Slade, Dalton, Josh, Biggs, and Chic all held her back from killing the norm. Mole was literally sitting on the girl while the others held down her arms legs and head.
"Let her up." Alec says laughing. The males jumped off the fiery girl only to see her swing her legs in an arc as she flipped into a standing position.
"Get away from my computer!" Cherish yells grabbing Logan's chair and hurling him away. She screamed at what she saw on the computer.
"I have been working on this for a week and now it is all gone and in an even bigger mess." Cherish screams before plopping on the ground to do push ups to relieve her anger.
"Oh she is mad." Alec says smirking as the teen pushed up and down at a steady pace.
"Hey let me get back to work so I can correct the screw ups all of you made." Logan says. Cherish pushes hard off the ground, hard enough that she was standing again and never once used her legs to pull her self up it was all in her arms.
"Now listen here norm I have years of training on you, this was my job at Manticore I was one of the best. When the White House had a problem with enemies infiltrating their computers I was the one who eradicated that problem and sent a nasty virus back at them. I was born to use computers." Cherish says. Logan gets all huffy.
"Fine then I will be in the mess hall, come apologize to me when you are ready." Logan says not seeing Alec and the others holding the girl back.
"Let me at him come on I want to snap each one of his figures and then slowly break all of his joints and then crack his other bones, but still keep him alive and conscious. I want to torture him and not drawl a single drop of blood." Cherish says making many of the X series and nomilies alike shudder knowing she could do it, after all her specialties are data retrieval and analysis, as well as code cracking and hacking. She is not an assassin and knows how to make her prey suffer.
"Take her to the gym have her beat a few bags." Max says and her unit members nod dragging the kicking and screaming logistic. Alec watches with amusement turned into a grimace as the fierce girl head butted Biggs.
"Well I think we should wait until Logan calms down some before we rush in and go all hey Loggie we have big news on the guy." Alec says and Max nods in agreement.
"How does the damage look Dix?" Max asks and the half bald guy shakes his head.
"Cale did a number but Cherish will be able to fix it when she calms down." Dix says with a small smile.
"I am so sorry he did that." Max says.
"It is alright boss he is not your responsibility so much anymore." Mole says as Alec puts an arm around Max and leads her off toward the mess hall to get a late night snack.
Just outside TC
"These people were morons if they thought they were out of danger, the danger has just begun. None of them are safe they are all abominations to the human race every transgenic and familiar. I promise that one day soon they will all know what true fear is." A man says as he folds up his chair and puts his high tech binoculars in his steel briefcase. Very soon the population of TC would know that they had a new enemy and soon not even the familiars will be able to help them.
Later that night in TC
"Alec I am so excited I cannot wait." Max says smiling widely as she lay on the hospital bed. An X5 named Fickle walked in smiling at the two soldiers.
"Well lets get started." Fickle says as he fiddles with the large instrument next to Max. Max bit her lip out of nerves making Alec laugh. Fickle lifted Max's shirt up to just below her chest and smeared a jell on her and ran his instrument over her, a loud thump, thump filled the quiet hospital room in seconds.
"Very good." Fickle says moving to the side and pulling the instrument up next to Max and Alec.
"There is your baby Max, Alec." Fickle says as the steady beat of the baby's heart continued in the background.
