Chapter 3

"Useless pathetic fools... the lot of them" Tia thought as she soared through the sky, destination in mind. "Just wait.. I will be the leader of this world, and a bit of help from my old friends will assure it." She was angry after Max and her flock attempting to show her off, well she taught Max her lesson hopefully. Ah, finally land was within her sight, perfect, just how she had planned and in the perfect location. California, The Colledge, where she had been created raised and taught. The school was a weak pathetic place that wasted its time on experiments that barely ever turned out right... No, can get distracted now, I must find them. The white-coats.

At the island

"Ok, were making some progress I guess" Max said to Fang who was working hard with his group re-building the Huge tree-house. It appears that they thought of everything when they made it, because the tree appeared to be in almost perfect condition, except for the individual houses and some of the walkways. Most of the houses had survived which mattered most Max guessed, seeing how they needed to stay safe.

"Max, we havent seen the last of that Tia girl, I can tell" Fang whispered to her.

"I know Fang.. I know its just I dont have the time right now, trying to run the world and all." Max bit back

"Woah there tiger, how about we just take a little break from all this? How about a little fly around, maybe check out the area around?" Fang said soothingly

This sounded like a great idea to Max and to have some time with Fan- Beware Max "Oh for god sake what now?" Max said aloud not noticing. Fang just stared at her blankly

"Everything ok? Dont worry about them, theyll be fine for just a few minutes."

As I flew off, it was almost magical as Fang and I flew side by side in perfect sync, all theese years had really paid off.

"Hey Max... whats that..?" Fang said slowing cautiously

"Hmm... looks a bit like a flock of hawks or something... theyre coming pretty fast, and theyre big..." Max said also slowing.

Within seconds they could see what was coming their way, Tia and... what looked to be a bit like.. Erasers, but it couldnt be, the wings were perfect and they were moving so swiftly and with such power.

"Max... I think we just found trouble..."

Warned you. Oh great... Mind telling me what theese things are voice? Enhansed-erarers, part of the gen 78 group. Oh god.. more gen 78... I wonder if Jeb knew about this? I would have to save that question for later.

"Ok fang, take the left flank, ive got the rest."

The erasers came faster then ever before, clearly enhanced.

"Miss us did you?" The eraser laughed lunging at Max stabbing a fist straight into her chest winding her.

Shake it off, remember, pain is merely a emotion, you can choose to ignore it. Huh, where have I heard that one before.

"Sorry, seems you came back a bit too early" Max replied snapping his neck... well, what usually would have snapped it. The eraser barely flinched.

"Oh, it appears that the Gen 77 is a bit behind... Shame, I thought this would be more fun." The eraser said, but couldnt speak on before Fang had delivered a fatal blow to his left shoulder which seemed to instantly paralyze it and cause it to fall straight down.

"Aim for the left shoulder! Weak spot!"

This worked for awhile, but it was alot of work sneaking up behind a Eraser or trying to turn them around and deliver a kick. After a bit, they were getting over-powered and forced back.

"Crap... Fang, were in trouble..." Max said

Then suddenly the sky was shaken with a large explosion and half the eraser pack was blown out of the air, but Tia just laughed watching from the distance.

"Yo Max, I told you I could easily blow people out of the sky! But thats all I have just yet, were gonna have to take em' fist to fist for this one." Gazzy shouted at her

"Nice job Gaz, aim for the left shoulder, weak spot."

Then the next surprise, for the worse. Max suddenly noticed Tia had gone at an extreme speed away from where she was watching to behind Fang and delivered a strong blow to the head, knocking him out and causing him to fall like a stone straight towards the ocean.

"Crap! Gaz, control the fight, retreat if you have too, ill be back in a minute!" Max yelled

"Dont worry, help is on the way too! Just hold them off" Eraser after Eraser were slowly being defeated but gazzy was starting to get bloodied, bad. "Angel... come, quick, west of the island, bring Iggy, Dylan and Nudge." "Max? Whats going on?" "Angel, just get them, NOW, were in trouble, ill explain later sweetie." "Ok..." "oh god oh god no..." Max whispered to herself as she also pelleted down chasing after Fang. After a bit, she reached the ocean and prayed that her gills still worked. Suddenly, she sighted Fang sinking, slowly sinking.. She instantly swim as fast as she could, which wasnt too fast... But she reached Fang and right now, she was thankful for her wings as they gave her a huge boost, enough to carry fang as she did an up and away from under-water. Carrying Fang was a load, but he had already woken and was gasping, not haveing developed gills of his own just yet. After a bit, Max couldnt hold Fang anymore, but he was capable of flying once again, though injured and dizzy, he could still follow after. As they got up to the rest of them, they saw that they had got there just in time, but only to see Iggy holding Gazzy who had suffered alot of damage.

"Oh crap..." Max said immediately feeling guilty for this.

"Ok guys, update." Max said firmly

They all glanced at each other, and Iggy was the first to speak up

"They battered us, but only left saying that what they needed was complete... Tia looked angry

at this and tried arguing with the erasers but they refused to listen to her and continued to retreat, forcing her along too, but damn you could hear the Gazmans explosions from back at the island!"

Max flinched at that thought, what if they thought something was up... she had to return quick to just settle anything before it had a chance to spread. The fly back seemed long, and Gazzy hadnt moved they finally arrived, Jeb was waiting for them.

"What happened?! Why the explosions! You almost caused an uproar here!" Jeb said angrily

He then noticed the wounded flock "W-what happened?!"

"Jeb, I need to talk to you, in private" Max told him.

So he took her to his house in the village and she told him all that happened and about the Gen 78.

"Hmm... its like I said, people want Fang, hes a danger to us all... But I suppose we had that argument and youve won it..." Jeb said frustrated. "But gen 78? That I have never heard of, and not much happened before without going through me. Dr. Hans had alot of knowledge, he may have even made himself immune to the virus and is creating more mutants to capture Fang. But they stopped... it must have been a warning, a sign of just how much power they have on their side."

Jeb stared blankly at the wall.

"What are you saying Jeb? This whole paradise that was supposed to be the perfect safe-place, isnt exactly safe?" Max said frustrated also

"Yes Max, sadly, its not over just yet."
