Hey all! Thanks for those of you who reviewed, and boo to all of you who didn't. Just kidding, dudes. Anyway, I'm sorry I haven't updated for a while. At first, I just lost interest in the story, but then some family stuff came up. But now I'm back, and it's my birthday! So, I want review to be like presents, and I love presents. So PLEASE give me lots of REVIEWS!
Oh, I almost forgot to say this. I'm excepting character submits. It doesn't matter if they're good or bad guys, but I'm short bad guys. I have a few of my main, but I don't really have any minors(pretty much Erasers and Fly-boys; that such). All right, so read, review and GIVE ME CHARACTERS!

JP: *walks up, smiling* "How are you doing today?"
Me: "Good... Why?"
JP: "Because I own Maximum Ride and you don't. Also, just I wanted to know how you felt about it."
Me: "... You love doing this to me... don't you?"
JP: *smile gets bigger* "Yes... yes I do."
Me: *Sighs* "Whatever..."
Max's P.O.V.
Fang was staring at me weirdly for a moment then asked me, "Max?"
I was furious. He had left us. He had left me. "Shut-up, Fang!" I screamed. Yes... screamed. I sounded like a 14-year-old girl having a tantrum.
Now isn't the time to be mad at Fang, Max. He will explain later. I promise. I heard my voice say.
Shut-up, I don't care what you say! I yelled at it(inside my head, of course. Otherwise, people would think that I'm crazy).
I sighed inwardly. My voice had never really been wrong before, annoying sure, but never wrong. I tried to relax my facial expression and was going to attempt to apologize(amazing, huh?) when a skinny black-haired girl of Asian decent stepped in front of Fang. "Don't tell him to shut-up!" she yelled angrily, "Why don't you shut-up and then do us all a favor by moving your scrawny ass out that door!" she continued yelling.
Gr! Voice, who is she! I asked the voice. I knew it wouldn't answer, but I figured I'd try anyway. After a second and the voice not answering I asked her angrily 'and who are you!'.
"I'm Neko," she replied, "who are you!" she asked.
At first I couldn't believe that Fang didn't say anything about me, but I quickly got over it(yeah, right). I was about to say a snappy comeback when I seen Fang step up next to the girl, put his hand on her shoulder and whispered something in her ear. She immediately backed down, although still glaring at me.
"Fang, what the hell was that!" I asked him angrily.
Fang didn't seem to like the situation he was in. The only reason that I even could tell was because of fifteen years of having to deal with his veryhard to read facial expressions. "That was Neko, Max," he said.
I rolled my eyes. "I know, Fang, she told me!" I said, annoyed.
"Yeah..." he said, "Um, well, what do you mean then?" he asked. I could tell this was awkward for him.
"I mean why didn't stop your dogfrom attacking me!" I asked him angrily, completely ignoring the snarl I got from Neko.
Fang's eyes widened slightly, "Don't call her a dog!" he yelled at me.
I felt something in me snap when he defended her. I wasn't angry, which surprised me, but I was sad; heartbroken, actually. Did he replace me? I asked myself sadly. But, as you know, sadness doesn't stick with me for very long. How dare he replace me! I thought angrily.
Fang's P.O.V.
Dog! Really, Max? I thought angrily in my head. How dareshe call Neko a 'dog'. She's a cat(I'll explain in a little bit).
"Who the hell is she, Fang!" she yelled at me with a hint of jealousy(?) in her voice.
She sure knows how to confuse a dude. "She's Neko, an experiment that me and Davion helped escape," I said, pointing to Davion, who was behind me.
"Hey," he said, lifting his hand up. Max looked at him for a second, then back at me, raising her left eye brow. That was a look that said, 'looks like hedid all the work, and you just stood in the background cheering him on'. I rolled my eyes.
A few seconds went by, then Max spoke again, "Well that just tells me so much about your dog!"
My eyes widened in anger. I didn't remember Max being so... aggravating, annoying, ignorant and other things about people that I don't like. I felt Neko try to move past be again, but I stopped her. "Max, you really need to chill out," I said, trying to keep as calm as possible.
"Why in the hell do I!" she shouted angrily.
I was starting to get veryangry. I could feel my face heating up a little, but I tried to ignore it. "Ma-" I didn't get to finish as I was punched in the face. I fell backward, not really expecting it. That also meant that there was nothing holding Neko back. Before I even seen what was happening I shouted, "Neko, don't," but, I knew it was too late when I heard the two girls scream. I quickly got up to see what was happening, even though I really already knew. Neko was on top of Max punching her repeatedly in the face, Max shouting and screaming angrily for her to get off. This was probably one of the first times that Max had ever met someone who was just as strong physically and had almost as much attitude as her. Max let out a roar, throwing Neko off her. Max then stood up very quickly, getting into a fighting stance. Neko rolled backwards and onto her feet. She also got into a fighting stance. Max was the first to move; she dashed towards Neko, jumping up and sending a flying roundhouse right at her. Neko jumped back and when Max landed and looked at her, she stared into Max's eyes as her own slowly went from normal, human eyes, to the eyes of a cat. Max's eyes widened a little, but ignored it otherwise. Neko slowly started to transform into a half human-half cat, and that's when I yelled angrily and commandingly, "Neko, stop it! Max, grow up!"
They both looked at me, although with completely different expressions. Neko's expression was sorry, as she transformed back into her normal state, while Max's was furious. She wanted revenge, but if Neko transformed, all she would get was hurt. And I didn't want that, despite how childish she was acting and how good of a lesson it would've been for her. "Max, please, we need to talk," I said, "Actually, all of need to talk? Where's the rest of the flock and Jeb?" I asked.
At first she didn't answer me, obvious that in her mind she was trying to prove something, but soon she spoke, "They should be here soon," Max mumbled.
"Okay," I said.
"They're not going to be happy to see you," she said, "The flock I mean. We've been through a lot in the past two years."
I nodded. It really didn't matter if they weren't happy to see me or not, because, to be honest, I didn't really expectthem to be happy to see me. They had a right to be angry. However, I wasn't expecting Max's reaction to the whole situation, but that would blow over soon enough. I needed to talk to the flock and Jeb about the upcoming events that were going to take place very soon.
Jeb and Iggy barged into the door. My guess was that Iggy carried Jeb to Dr. M's house. "Max, what's going on!" Jeb and Iggy asked, concerned.
"This chick, Neko, tried to freaking kill me!" she yelled angrily, pointing to Neko.
"She hit Fang!" Neko yelled, defending herself.
"He deserved it!" screamed at Neko, "He left us!"
"I can see why he did!" Neko screamed back at Max. I could see for a second that Max had been hurt for that one. Neko had just crossed the line.
"Neko," I warned.
Neko looked down and came over to me, putting her head on my shoulder, "Sorry, Fang," she said.
"Why are you apologizing to me?" I asked, "You need to apologize to Max," I said.
She glared at me for second and said, "Only if she says sorry for punching you,"
I sighed and Max looked at her. There was noway she was going to say it. "Pfft!" was the noise she made before she burst out laughing. "Ha! Like I'm going to apologize to him! Do you even know how many he owes me!" she said when she regained control of herself.
Neko sent a glare that was almost as bad as mine and Max started laughing again. "Wow! You've been around for just a few years, and you can already copy his glare. You must be studying him better than I thought you were!" she said through laughing.
Neko blushed a little, "Shut-up, skank!" she yelled.
Max was about to say something when Jeb interrupted her, "That's enough you two!" he yelled, "We don't have time for your Petty arguing over Fang," he said. Neko and Max both looked at Jeb angrily. "I don't care what you guys think of me, if we want to survive this attack from Itex, you're all going to have to work together to do this," he continued, "Now I know that what Fang did was rash, Max, but he did it because he thought it was best for the flock. He diddistract you, Max; and you distracted him. And Neko, I understand that you want to protect Fang, but he can handle himself, trust me. And Fang, I understand that something occurred in an area in Japan. I don't know all the details, but it's crucial that I do. And after you explain all of that, we're going to have everyone introduce themselves and their powers or abilities. When the rest of the flock gets here, we're going to tell them the same thing."
I looked at Jeb for a second. "It's good not to have to make decisions anymore," I said, smiling slightly.
"Don't get too used to it," Jeb said, "The upcoming events are going to require just as many decisions from you as Max and I," he said, dampening my mood.
"You can't save the world!" I asked, panicked on the inside, but calm on the outside.
"Yeah, whatever," Max said. Neko just crossed her arms, and pouted in a way that was actually kind of cool. Hm... she does act like me...
I looked at her, and then Neko. I knew that it was going to be hard dealing with the two. But I figured that it get better over time.
Nudge's P.O.V.
We had left the building shortly after Iggy and Jeb. When we finally had gotten to Dr. M's house, we crashed through the door. I gasped.
"What's going on?" I asked, confused.
I kind of answered myself as I screamed 'Fang', and started to run toward him. But as I was running over to Fang, I seen Iggy, who obviously didn't like Fang being at Dr. M's house. At all. But I ignored him for a second and kept running towards Fang.
I started crying and screaming things like 'Never leave us again you big jerk!' and 'We all missed you so much!'. I continued yelling stuff into his chest. I couldn't really understand myself since mouth was muffled by Fang's chest. I looked back at Iggy, because I could feel him looking in Fang's direction, and he looked like he wanted to smash Fang's head into a table. That was really weird to me.
Max was about to say something, but Jeb answered, "He is here to help us. To destroy the last of Itex."
Alright! What ya think? Birthday presentspeople! Birthday presents!
