Losing It

Chapter 2 – The waking.

Fangs P.O.V

I watched in horror as Max's eyelids flutter closed and her wings fold shut. She started to fall and I snapped into action. I grabbed Iggy's arm and we both dived down as fast as we could. My heart was racing as fast as I was falling. Finally, we were at the same level as Max and we both grabbed her. Our wings shot open painfully and we shot upwards, hauling Max with us.

"Jeez, what the hell has she been eating?" I heard Iggy gasp.

Yeah, always the one to make a joke in a bad situation I thought, rolling my eyes.

We reached the rest of the flock gasping for breath. Yeah we might be super strong, but when we're flying it gets pretty hard to carry something around the same weight as you.

"Okay guys, we need to get to a hotel, and fast. We can pay with the Max's card thing." I commanded. Since Max was unconscious, I would have to take control for a while.

They all nodded silently, still a little freaked out by what just happened. Iggy and I turned around and headed for the nearest city, with the flock in tow.

20 minutes later, we had found a cheap hotel and booked 3 adjoining rooms. I was sat on one of the twin beds in mine and Max's room. Max was still unconscious on the other.

I heard a knock on the door leading to Iggy and Gazzy's room, and Iggy popped his head around the door.

"Hey, how's she doing?" he asked.

"She's still not awake. She's never usually out of it for this long." I replied.

"Yeah, it's kinda worrying. Well, when she wakes up, come and get me." said Iggy.

I nodded silently and turned to face Max again. I heard the door snap closed, so got up and walked over to Max. She looked so peaceful. Her muscles were relaxed and her breathing was calm. I lent down and stroked her cheek softly.

Her eyes snapped open and she just lay there for a second. Then she started screaming. Not as though she was in pain, but a terrified scream.

"Max! Calm down, It's me!" I said panicking.

Tears formed in her eyes and she started bawling. She shot into a sitting position and swung her legs over the edge of the bed. Max stood up but fell straight back down. Luckily I was there to catch her.

By now, the rest of the flock had stormed into the room to see what was happening.

"Angel, I need you to read Max's mind to see what's wrong with her." I said frantically.

Angel nodded nervously and a concentrated look swept over her face. After a few seconds, her eyes grew wide and her gaze shot to me.

"What? Angel, what's happening!" I questioned.

"Something's wrong with her. Her mind is all scrambled. It kinda reminds me of a babies." She said nervously.

"WHAT?" I shouted.

"The words in her minds are jumbled up. It's as though she can't speak. Just like a baby."

"Shit." I muttered and turned back to a trembling Max.

"Max? It's okay. Calm down." I soothed.

And surprisingly, she went silent. Her big brown eyes turned to look up at me innocently.

"What's happened to you?" I whispered so the flock couldn't hear.

"Max, say something" said Nudge.

Max just turned her head towards Nudge and stared at her.

"You" I pointed at her, "are Max."

"I" I gestured to myself, "am Fang."

"F-Fing." Max stuttered.

"This is gonna be harder than I thought." I said shaking my head.

Well here's the 2nd chapter. Thanks for all of the reviews, I didn't expect to get 6 for my 1st chapter. It's really cheered me up

And I'm having an extremely girly moment here. I'm literally jumping up and down right at this moment. I'm finding it hard to type.

The reason for my extreme excitement is that MAXIMUM RIDE: THE FINAL WARNING IS FINALLY OUT IN THE USA!

But I live in England so it isn't out here. But I've ordered it online and its being delivered to my house TOMORROW!

Anyway, please review! Love you all.
