Chapter 2

An easy job right? Watch for unnatural things happening in the sea wright? Wrong. The thing beeped for every little thing. A fish takes a turn? BEEP. A whale passes by? BEEP. So he wasn't surprised when the thing beeped again only this time it was different. It was a ship. Not just a ship that was passing by I mean an actual ship! A pirate ship at that. One of the big classical ones that still made sure you knew it was a pirate ship. So he did the most natural thing to do. Call the marines.

The captain was enjoying his meal when a subordinate came on deck.

"What is it? Cant you see I am enjoying my meal?"the captain asked the solider.

"Sir! Sorry sir but there appears tho be some disturbance in the seas."

The captain growled. "Those fools again they call for every single little thing, if I wasn't careful I would say my ex-wife was on that team."

"But sir, it appears to be a pirate ship."

"Pirates eh? What little rundown boat is it this time?"the captain asked if the mission was over already.

"That's the thing sir, it looks like a classical pirate ship only I think this ones real,"the naval soldier stated carefully.

"Poppycock! The Pacific means peaceful that means nothing bad happens here,"the captain said with a positive tone in his voice.j

"But sir. Isn't the Pacific home to the many volcano eruptions and tsunamis also closely followed by the rough under-sea volcano mostly because it is surrounded by the ring of fire?"

"No one likes a smart-ass boy, now get back to your post and tell the others were headed towards that ship."

"YES SIR! ," the man yelled before going back to his post.

The captain sat down in his seat.'Pirates huh?' he thought 'I wanted action, all they gave me was this stupid post, fine I'll do it but only because I have 2 ships with me, those pirates don't stand a chance.'

Some people might ask, why is Maximum Ride in a submarine? Others why does this kid have wings? The wing part I can answer. I was created to be a super-human well actually, 98% human and 2% avian. With those wings we have very different powers.

Oh, I'm sorry I didn't introduce us yet. I'm Maximum, Max for short I'm your normal blonde teenage girl (minus the wings) and I can fly over 200 miles. Fang, the totally emo one with the dark hair, dark clothes, and pale skin-anyway lets move on.

There's Iggy my dirty strawberry blonde besides the fact that he's blind and could cook better than me makes me wonder if he is blind, or faking it. Then comes the third youngest my Nudge, her power, other than to not be quiet, she is really good with electronics. Then comes Gazzy, he will demonstrate his power later. Lastly my little Angel a fling, water-breathing, mind-reading little girl.

As for the sub part, were in 'training' because apparently we have never been in a hostile environment before. Shocking I know. So we were in the sub when it happened something landed right by us with a huge splash. We were luckily under-water so the aftershock didn't push us back as much.

"I want to know what that was and I want it now!"the captain of the sardine can yelled.

"It looks like a ship sir,"one of the radar people said.

"Do you have radio contact?"he asked

"No sir it seems to be down."

"Alright let's surface up and meet these people, but you six, stay inside I don't want any of you getting hurt. Would look bad in my report."

After we surfaced we could see the ship clearer, it was a big classical ship with skulls and crossbones, wearing a straw hat? "People on the ship, please come out with your hands up!" the captain said the only person who did was a green hared man and another man wearing a suit with a curly eyebrow going in. That's when the warships started firing.

Authors note: ha! a cliffhanger as much as I hate reading them they're fun to make.

The ships started firing cotton candy and Itex was trying to give max a surprise party, with cake
