Disclaimer: Nope, again I say I dont own any maximum ride characters that come in this story.
It's been a week since we escaped the school. We were flying over Arizona, and we had good things happening, but as always, the bad things. The good news, the sun was going down and it was cooling down. The bad news, our supplies we stole from Wal-Mart were running low. "Chance, when are we gonna land?" Adrianna complained. "I don't know, just don't keep complaining, because I already have a headache." "Why do you have a headache?" she went on. "Because of stupid questions..." She immediately went quiet.
I searched the desert for the 100th time today, and actually saw something. A large E shaped house. It looked like the only way in from the ground was too get a ladder...or fly. "Hey everyone, go down, land on that roof...quietly." "Gotcha" everyone said. When we all landed, I didn't hear a sound, so I figured we were okay. I looked around until I found a small hatch. I pointed too it and Adrianna immediately walked over too it, and examined the lock. "Cake" she said, and I gave her a small bobby pin from my pocket. It's how she got Zack his contacts. She put it in for about half a second and the lock opened.
"Y'know, you may not be very smart, but where would we be without you." "Dead, probably." Brandon was the only one who laughed at the joke. He's been acting weird around her lately... She opened the hatch and we all dropped down. We looked around and I took a step, which was our first mistake. Immediately I heard a little chink, as if a pin had been pulled on a grenade. "DOWN" I yelled, suddenly there was a deafening noise, and I was blinded.
When the blindness went away, the first thing I saw was a foot coming to my face. I quickly grabbed it, twisted it and came down on the person trying too kick me. I was looking at the face of a kid, who basically looked like a older, skinnier version of me. He shifted like a break dancer, and put me in an arm bar. I dug my elbow in the back of his leg, and rolled over freeing my arm. Once we both stood up, I punched him in the face. He took the blow, then gave me a swift kick to the legs, making them ache. When I was trying too get my balance, he grabbed my shirt, and started punching me. When he faltered for a second, I grabbed him, and threw him against someone else hitting Zack. The two men rolled together. Finally someone yelled "STOP!" Immediately we all stopped, looking for the source of the noise. There was a girl, probably nineteen, standing there. She had golden curls, and pajamas on.
"Come here guys." I said too my flock, all of them gathering behind me. I looked at Zack, because it looked like he had it worse than anyone. He had a big cut on his forehead, and a bruise on his temple. Brandon had a bloody nose and was spitting a bit of blood. Jill didn't look hurt at all, just a little red mark near her eye. Adrianna was walking a little funny, but she was fine. My nose was probably broken, and my arm was sore, but I would be fine. "Everyone alright?" they all just nodded, and scanned who was attacking us.
I looked at them and was surprised. I saw six of them, three girls and three guys. The tallest ones were probably about twenty-eight. The tallest boys were about 2 inches taller than me Jill and Quinton. One boy had long black hair, and was wearing black skull pajamas. The other had long blonde hair, and his eyes were hazy... as if something was wrong with him. He wore pajamas with a bunch of feathers on them. The smallest boy, probably about 20, had blonde hair, sort of like the smallest girls, and was wearing pajamas with grenades on them. The oldest girl had blonde hair with a pink stripe in it, wearing plain white pajamas. The middle age girl was dark-skinned, and had long brown hair, probably about 25, with what looked like designer pajamas on. The youngest girl had blonde curls, and was probably about 19, wearing pajamas with a bunch of angels on them.
The oldest girl stepped forward "Who are you guys?" "Well, I could ask you the exact same thing." "Yeah, who the hell puts a flash bang in their kitchen." Brandon and Zack yelled together. "People who don't like thieves stealing from them!" the tallest boy yelled. I heard a noise like a truck outside, and the sound of snarling. "Shit..." "What?" Adrianna asked "Erasers, from the sounds of it about 10." "Wait, how the hell do you know what erasers are?" the tall dark haired boy asked. I looked around to my flock and nodded my head. We all snapped out our wings, but surprisingly, none of the kids looked shocked.
Suddenly, a window broke somewhere to my right. I grabbed a knife that was on the counter and threw it. It had hit an eraser square in the face. As soon as that happened, everything went ballistic, people fighting, yelling things, windows breaking, the usual chaos. I saw the other kids fighting about 5 erasers, which meant 5 for us. When one ripped a small chuck of skin off of Adrianna's arm, and I heard Brandon yell. The next thing I know, I'm seeing Brandon trying too ram his arms through the erasers stomach. Suddenly I know how Jill felt when I broke that erasers jaw...
I heard a yelp, and looked where it was coming from. One eraser was holding Jill, and the other was hitting her repeatedly. I used my wings to get some air, got on the erasers shoulders, and did something I didn't even know I could do. I leaned back, and slammed the eraser's head into the ground. All I know for sure, is that his skull was broken. 3 down 2 too go. Suddenly Zack was on the eraser behind Jill. He spun around the erasers neck, and slammed his face down. After that he threw him out the window, along with a small cherry bomb which shook the house. Adrianna had an eraser in some kind of headlock, and snapped his neck. That meant 5 eraser kills for us.
I looked over to the other kids, and they just finished with their last eraser, throwing him out the window. After all the chaos, we buried all the bodies without even saying a word. When we were all in the living room, patching up our wounds, Zack was the first to speak "Okay, I don't know about you guys, but I want some answers." "So do we." said the young girl with blonde curls. "Well, we're from a school, which is why we have wings. I'm Chance" we all introduced ourselves.
"Hi, I'm Max, that's Fang, Iggy, Gazzy, Nudge, and Angel." "Nice to meet you all." we said. "So do you guys also have wings?" Jill asked. "Yeah actually." Max said. They all snapped out their wings. "OH MY GOSH YOUR WINGS ARE SO PRETTY!" Adrianna squealed while looking at Nudge's wings. "SO ARE YOUR'S!" said Nudge. "OH MY GOD MAKE IT STOP!" Zack and Iggy yelled at the same time. We all laughed until it hurt, then when we were all okay, I figured I would get down to business. "Okay, I think its the best plan if we all stick together." I said. "Agreed." said Max, so we all got more acquainted I heard Jill say something that just made me laugh until I cried and almost fell out the door. "So who's sleeping where?"
Okay, so I thought this was a good chapter. Sorry it took so long too update. I think I'll have a love interest between Zack and Angel. Maybe I'll make Iggy or Gazzy gay so Quinton can have a love interest too lol. (More of a Niggy guy so...) Leave your thoughts :D
Fly on,
Chance
