We're back to Max's POV. Just telling you now that if you think this is too short or boring, I'm making it short because I have a big surprise on the way. I won't give any clues but lets just say someone comes back and everything goes crazy. (that is the most obvious hint I've ever seen) Now it's up to you to figure out who comes back but I think you already know. Anyway, enjoy.

I walked in to the kitchen. The only ones there were Nudge, Iggy and Dylan.

"Where's Gazzy? I asked them. They all looked away.I knew where he was, I just wanted to make sure he was still there. I sighed and walked over to the boys room. Ever since the accident in Paris, Gasman never came out of his room and I stayed away giving him time to heal. I didn't even know when or how he ate or used the bathroom which made me wonder if he was even in there. I knocked on the door slowly.
"Gazzy? You in there?" I asked and only received a sigh.
"Dude, if you don't open this door I swear I will take it down with one kick and than I'll pull you out." I hissed.
The door opened slowly to reveal a small boy with sad blue eyes. My anger quickly changed to sadness and sympathy. I saw a tear slide down his cheek and I almost burst out crying, too. I walked in to the room and closed the door behind me, I than sat down on the unmade bed.
"Max, I want to go look for Angel" he said quietly.

"Okay. " I whispered. My heart was broken, I couldn't say no. I missed my baby more than anything, but there was always that thought of what if we find her and it's too late. Will you freak out infront of the kids if the only thing you find is a dead little girl . . . with wings?

"And Fang." he said so quietly I almost didn't hear him. I stood up and walked to the door. "Get dressed and come eat." I said, pretending he never mentioned him.

Iggy and Nudge were gone and it was just Dylan sitting on the counter eating a sandwich. I couldn't help smile at how normal he looked, aside from the huge wings.
"I think we should go somewhere today. Just you and me." he said with his mouth full. I tensed and looked away from him.
"What about the kids?" I asked quietly avoiding his gaze.
"They can stay here and play a board game or something. We should go out for dinner and a movie. Like a date." he jumped down from the counter and pulled a water bottle from the fridge.
I looked at him with wide eyes.

"Um, sure." I said. No Max, that was not the right answer you idiot!
"Great. We can see that new movie, The Avengers. I heard it was really funny." he said and with that he started to walk away.
"Yeah, okay." I said quietly. Dylan turned around and flashed one of his famous way-too-bright-to-be-real, smiles.
"Awesome. Than it's a date." he said cheerfully. I frowned and crossed my arms over my chest.
"It's not a date." I yelled, too loudly.
Dylan opened the front door and turned again to smile at me.
"Whatever you say." and stepped outside leaving me alone in the kitchen. I looked blankly at the door before I stood up and walked to my room. Was this seriously happening?

Fang POV

I looked down at the ground and smiled. This place brought back memories. Some were painful, and some made me smile for no reason at all. I jumped down from the gigantic rock and slowly walked closer to the beach. The memory of the pain after getting my ass kicked by Ari, and the almost dream-like memory of Max.
Her voice in my head saying something the old max would had never said.
Just live, okay? Just live and be okay.
And than she kissed me and all I could think of was, Wow, this is Max. And as lame as it sounds that was my first kiss. After that I couldn't stop looking at her, noticing things I never had before that day. Like how when she laughed her eyes looked brighter, and how her hair was a shade lighter than her brown feathers, and how her feathers seemed to be rimmed with a thin line if gold.
"Are you deaf?" Someone yelled from behind me.
I turned around and cursed inside my head, it was Maya, coming toward me.
"Sorry, I was just thinking about . . . how cool it would be . . . to own a . . . a cat." I said. Really Fang? A cat? Making a mental note to slap myself on the face.
Maya smiled when she reached me and took my hand in hers. I smiled back and tried so hard not to push her away and run away into the ocean so I could drown myself, which was my escape plan if she tried to do anything that-
Too late. Her mouth was already on mine making me gasp for air but she didn't notice. Somehow she managed to push me down onto the pale sand, with he on top of me. Oh God, please let a rock fall from the sky and hit her on the head so she'll stop. Apparently God doesn't listen to all prayers.
I put my hand on her back but didn't push her away.
"I like cats." she whispered against my mouth, making me shiver with a feeling I almost never got . . . fear?
Her hand slowly moved down my stomach. I wondered what she was doing. And than my eyes widened when her hand reached the top button on my jeans and she quickly undid it.
"Woah!" I yelled and slipped out from under her faster than human speed will allow. I did up my button and stood up and stared down at her in amazement.
"What's wrong?" she asked innocently.
"You just attacked me and tried to take my pants off and you ask me what's wrong?" I screeched. Maya got to her feet and stared up at me with questioning eyes.
"Calm down. If this is because of her you should forget about her." she said.
"You're right this is about her, and I can't stop thinking about her because of you."
"I don't understand why you won't leave her alone. I am just like her, Fang. I can replace her, change my name back to Max, whatever it takes if it means I can have you. I will never mind, as long as you're mine." she wailed. I hated how she sounded so desperate.
"No. You are nothing like Max, and I'm sorry to say this but I can never forget about her. You will never replace her Maya because no one can ever replace her. I will never belong to anyone but her, no matter what you say or do, I belong and always will belong to the real Maximum Ride." I whispered. Who would have thought the dark and mysterious Fang would ever say those words infront of another living soul.
Maya looked at me for a second and than she started to cry and sob like Max only did when we were in deep stuff.
"I'm sorry, but I can't stay with you if it means lying to myself. I have to go where I really belong." I whispered. Maya wiped her face on her sleeve and sniffed.
"And where might that be?" she whispered.
I sighed and turned my back on her.
"Wherever Max is." I said. I was already running when she yelled after me. The words only enemies said.
"You'll regret this Fang! You will wish you had never said that!" she yelled after me. I felt the wind blow against me wings as I flew over the ocean water, my foot barely touching the water.
"I doubt it." I said loudly enough.
"You will be sorry!" she yelled after me. A high pitched scream.
That's how I know I have made a new enemy.
