Sorry again I'm mainly doing test-runs. If something is said (in the same words) twice, please tell me. And let me know if something went wrong.


Max POV

Mom, Ella, and a woman from Haiti holding her baby, and a jet were sitting in a clearing waiting for us. There were completely unaware of the large, dark cylinder the size of a spaceship creeping behind the trees. Sunlight glistened off it, and the shadow extended as it gained height. What were those things coming from a door in it? Robots? Oh, no, now the Flyboys again!

Mom, Ella, and the Haiti woman were right in its path.

"Fang!" I yelled and pointed at them. "Get Mom and the others to safety!" Fang curled in his wings and dove to the ground.

Angel swallowed hard. "Oh, Max!" The poor kid!

"Iggy, Gazzy, do you have anything?"

Iggy smiled greedily. "Don't we always?" He had a point.

"Let me at the big one!" Gazzy said, punching and kicking the air.

I knew he was talking about the over-sized house thing. He was eight years old, he couldn't take that thing! "Gazzy, no!" I said. "They know us too well, it's too thick! Wait until we get inside it, then blow it up when I say!" Iggy and Gazzy prepared the bombs, ready to explode some Flyboys. "Nudge, take that half!" I said, pointing to one-third of the Flyboys. "Angel, over there! I'll take the rest of them. Be careful!"

I had taught them all I knew about Flyboys, even though Iggy was able to give them more of a plan. That didn't really bother me. Total flew over to try to help Angel, but kept his didstance since he almost got his tail blown off.

"Max!" Gazzy yelled. "Angel! Move!" With Gazzy, you take action first, ask questions later. I grabbed Angel and flew upwards. We would never fly down again, we learned that lesson quick, after Nudge, Angel and I got pelted with Flyboy, well, M-Geek parts. Eww. Gross either way.

I shielded Angel from flying Flyboy junk, which completely grossed me, Maximum Ride! I dusted off Flyboy dibris that fell on me, eww, and waited to see if there was another surprise explosion. Nope.

Then I heard the sounds of a baby crying and engins roaring. I spun around. Fang pushed in the Haiti woman and her baby and flew up a few yards off the ground. "Take cover!"

"Iggy, Gazzy, stop!" I yelled. "Down!" Iggy threw up one more bomb and Gazzy led him to safety. Smart kid. Angel grabbed total and swiftly, like the air shows we once had to do, flew to the ground with Nudge and I.

Fang, driving a jet, can you imagine? I can't either. He jumped in the jet and sat in the co-pilot seat. Mom waved. Since when did she know how to drive a jet?

The jet took a rolling take-off and flew into the sky. Flyboys scattered, but were blown hard into the trees and the ground by the wind of the jet, and exploded.

"What's happening?" Iggy said.

Gazzy grinned. "Max's mom and Fang took out a ton of Flyboys!"

Yeah, 'cause my mom is just cool like that.

Fang wants us to meet them at Lake Milstone, Angel said.

They flew on, and as soon as it was safe, all the Flyboys laying in smoking piles, I grabbed Gazzy's hand. "Come on Gazzy, with me. We are going inside that spaceship thing. Bring your bombs."

Never thought I'd say that.
