Logan
Hey, sorry about leaving you in suspence, as about the virus and Logan, well, you'll see =) And about Sandeman, don't you remember in the last episode (Freak Nation) that when Joshua saw White he went into a flashback and went crazy trying to kill him? And when Max stopped him he said « But he killed Daddy. »???? And also, I guess it was only OC, Sketchy and Normal, sorry about that. Disclaimer : All character's belong to James Cameron.
« .. Take a look at this. » As he said that, he turned around and pulled the top of his shirt down. Max stepped back. This could not be true. Logan had a barcode on the back of his neck. « Max, » he said presently, « I'm really from Manticore. But I wasn't one of the ones that escaped with you. About a year later, they sent me out on a mission to find and terminate a person called Agredo Sifnacty. When they let me go though, I wanted to find my brothers and sisters, so I never returned. My designation is 332960073543, a.k.a.. X5-543. » Max couldn't understand it. Logan had never had a barcode on his neck. She took a breath and said, « Logan stop joking around. I see you drew that there. » But she knew he knew she was lying.
« Max, » Logan drew out the name as if he was tasting it. « When I got out, I changed my name to Logan Cale. Every week I had to go to a secret tattoo parlor and get my barcode removed. I became a regular there, and I just told them it kept coming back. But when it got out that we were identified by barcodes, I had to stop and my barcode slowly came back. When I got shot and couldn't walk anymore, I would have died, even as an X5, but it was your perfect DNA that fixed me enough so I could walk. » He ended like that, then he walked away. But as he walked away, his hand slowly brushed against hers, and nothing happened. He looked straight into her eyes, andcontinued walking. But then he turned around and said « And I'm not leaving. » Max turned around. She had to focus on her brother adn sisters. So she sent OC, Sketchy and Normal out the door. But as OC was leaving she turned around and gave Max a hug.
« You be careful out there Boo, don't do anything I wouldn't do. » As she said it, a single tear ran down her face.
« I'll be careful, don't you be worrying about me. » And she hurried her out the door. As soon as they were out, OC, Sketchy and Normal were surrounded by guards checking to see if they had any barcodes. As they were all cleared they piled them into a truck, probably taking them into observation to see what the fumes did to them.
Max then walked up the stairs and onto the roof and said to the general, « You have us all in one place, with no hostages. If you attack us, we'll fight back, and win. If you don't, we'll go on living our lives as normal, just like you. Since 2009 there have been 12 of us wandering around this world, not hurting any of you.('Except for Ben' she thought to herself). And last year, the whole of Manticore, where we were made, exploded in a fire, and they said it was a hospital and the SW1 blew it up. It was me, I caused the fire to get my brothers and sisters out. And they have been living here, not bothering you, in any physical way, and trying to live normal lives. And some of us have managed to get jobs, and live normally, some of us, what with un-human-like characteristics, have been sentenced to living in Terminal City. We can live with it. Some of us have cat-like DNA, and others, dog DNA and so on. All we want is to be free. But if you want to kill us, you'll have to come in and kill us. And if you do that, your on a suicide mission, because we'll win. And if you don't, we can all live in harmony. It's your choice. » As she ended her speech, she heard a car pull up. She looked around and saw Ames White stepping out of the car. She had an idea. She said again, « Also, they're is another type of person who is trying to kill us. They are ancient predators, but look just like you. No barcodes or anything. They plan to take over the world. And one of them is here, in your crowd. He just stepped out of that car over there, and he has a gun pointing to your head, Mr.General. » Max ended and heard someone behind her. As she and Alec looked down at the general, they saw the raw terror in his eyes that they had seen in all they're prey at Manticore. Max saw Ames pull the trigger, but as she did, she jumped.
« NOOOOOOOOO, » Alec screamed. Stupid Max, always trying to play hero.
As Max jumped she pushed the general out of the way, and the bullet hit nothing but air. As she stood up, the general had lost his gun. Max picked it up, and with precise precision, shot Ames, right in the face, then, all the police officers turned and shot at him too, and his cronies by his side. As they're bodies were torn apart, Max said « You owe me. » And ran back into the building, with the flag flapping in the wind.
