It had been three hours since Max left Logans. She was currently sitting on the Space Needle looking down at the city thinking about what she had done in a previous life to deserve such a messed up life, had she been paying attention she would have noticed the form creeping up behind her.

"Hello Max"

In one quick motion, Max was standing up holding the person by their throat. It took her a few seconds to realize whom she was holding. "What do you want Alec" she angrily asked annoyed that he had disturbed her solitude.

"Hey you just looked like you could use someone to talk to, now can you put me down." Reluctantly Max released him. "Okay now we're getting somewhere, so I guess congratulations are in order you've now taken down an entire covert government agency, what are you going to do next," Alec asked half joking.

"You know, if you keep annoying me the next thing I do may involve seeing whether you can survive a fall from the top of the Space Needle" Max said Menacingly.

"Okay, Okay sheesh no need to get all riled up, seriously what's wrong," this time Alec actually looked completely serious.

"Max sighed while she didn't particularly like him she really did need to talk to someone and Alec might be one of the few people who could understand her problem being a fellow escapee. After attempting to stare him down for a few minutes she finally caved, "I guess what's bothering me is that right now I don't have no idea what I'm going to do. I can't work for Logan anymore since the danger is to great and any other type of steady work is now to dangerous since while they probably don't have pictures of all of us I have no doubt that the minute I was recaptured they took my picture and sent it everywhere they could think of just in case I escaped again. So needless to say I don't have a lot of options not to mention I've released thousands of kids into a society that while they know how to blend in they really don't know how to properly function in it in the long term."

Alec looked thoughtful, "well I see the enormity of your actions have finally caught up with you. While I'm really not quite sure what any of us should do with our lives I think if we are to survive we are going to have to get organized there are a lot of us out here and we are going to need everyone if we are to survive."

"I agree with you" Max replied "but how are we going to get everyone together, if they keep to there training they'll spread out which will leave everyone to be picked off one at a time by whoever they send after us."

"I don't think we'll have to worry about gathering them just keeping them from being killed" Alec stated as he seemingly stared off into space.

"What do you mean?"

"Look."

At his reply Max looked in the direction he was looking seeing what appeared to be a star blinking in a pattern she recognized as meaning return to base. "As if we didn't have enough problems it'll be a slaughter."

"Not necessarily" said Alec with a crooked grin.

"What do you mean, everyone who obeys that signal will be killed."

"You are right however that signal is automated and I doubt the normals have bothered learning the code since they don't need to learn it to send out a signal. So if we can some how commandeer that signal we can send our own message telling what's really going on and to get in contact with us and above all stick together."

"Alec that plan just might work okay lets get this planned out we won't be able to pull it off before tomorrow night but most won't start out before then anyways".

With that, they began to plan their attack on the signals control area all the while hoping no one obeyed too early.
