A.N. Sorry about taking so long to update. I got a lot of great reviews on the last chapter. I will try to update sooner next time but remember, the more reviews the faster I update.

Disclaimer- If I owned anything do you really think I would be here writing a FAN fiction?

Max P.O.V.

I yawned and slowly sat up, expecting to be in a tree or in the middle of nowhere but was surprised to find myself in a bed. I looked around the room and found 3 empty beds. I jumped up and looked around again, as if they would suddenly appear, and was disappointed to find my flock gone. I ran over to the door and reached for the handle. I was surprised to find the door unlocked.

I ran into the hall and quickly found the stairs that led downstairs. I practically flew down the stairs, no pun intended, and ran into the living room. The whole Cullen family was sitting around on the couches talking and when I came in they all got quiet.

"Where is my flock?" I asked suspiciously. They all exchanged looks before Carlisle finally answered my question.

"Don't worry Max; they are just in the dining room eating. They have all been up for about an hour." He said calmly.

Without saying anything else I turned and walked into the dining room. I was happy to find that they were all sitting around a large table stuffing their faces with enough food to feed an army. I was slightly surprised that we were being fed so well but I decided not to think about it as I sat down and began to eat.

After about my 5th plate of food I was just beginning to get full. Just as I was starting on my 6th Carlisle walked in. "I think we need to have a family meeting." He said, looking at me.

"Oh, by all means go ahead, we won't bother you." I said quickly before going back to eating.

"That includes you guys." He said quietly. I choked on my bite of food and began coughing hysterically.

"WHAT?" I exclaimed as soon as I could breathe.

"Max, you and your flock are now a part of our family so family meetings include you guys." He said, giving us a sympathetic smile.

I felt a low growl escape my throat. "We are not a part of your family! We never have been and never will be. I don't mind us being involved in the meeting, but don't you dare call it a family meeting because you will never be a part of my family." I said as calmly as possible.

Then of course Carlisle had to surprise me again by saying "as you wish, we won't call it a family meeting but we would really like to sit down together and talk. Is that okay?" I hated how he could stay co calm and composed. I enjoyed getting on peoples nerves and it bothered me that he wasn't getting annoyed. He must have had years of practice.

I pondered for a moment before responding. "Fine, we will join into your little meeting. When does it start?" I asked, irritated.

Carlisle seemed pleased with my answer and said "Whenever you guys are done eating we can meet in the living room." And with that he left the room.

The whole flock exchanged quick glances before finishing our food. Before we went into the living room to face the Cullens I turned to my flock. "Now, just let me do all the talking unless I tell you otherwise. Okay?" The whole flock nodded in response so I led them into the living room.

All of the Cullens were seated on one side of the room which left plenty of room for my flock and me on the other side. "So….. What's up?" I asked.

I was surprised when Esme spoke up. "We all know your secret, so I think it is only fair if you know ours." She said calmly.

"HAH!" I exclaimed. "I knew it! I knew you guys weren't human!" Everyone gave me strange looks.

"Anyway…" Esme awkwardly continued. "You're right, we aren't human. We are vampires." She and the rest of the Cullens were all staring at us, gauging our reactions.

"That is so cool!" Gazzy exclaimed. "Do you burn in the sunlight? Do you sleep in coffins? Where is the dungeon? Do you eat people? Where are your fan…?" I cut him off by slapping my hand over his mouth.

"That's enough Gazzy, calm yourself." That was basically like asking an ant to carry an elephant on his back. "Now, care to elaborate?" I asked.

"Well, we don't burn in the sunlight, we sparkle. We don't sleep in coffins because we can't sleep at all. We don't have a dungeon. We don't have fangs. We are indestructibly, the only thing that can kill us are other vampires. Most vampires drink human blood but no need to worry, we are vegetarians. We only drink animal blood." Carlisle explained.

"Oh then well that's great news for us." I mumbled and Emmet chuckled.

"We won't harm you." Carlisle said with a grin.

"Too late for that." I mumbled as I touched my right arm where it had begun to throb. I saw Carlisle cringe while everyone else looked confused.

"I am truly sorry about that. Let me have a look at it in my office upstairs. I want to make sure none of you get an infection." Carlisle offered. I didn't particularly want to say yes but I was worried about my flock so I reluctantly nodded my head.

"Good, just follow me." I nodded to my flock and we all walked up the stairs after him. We came to a stop outside a small white room. I really hated this.

Carlisle walked into the room without hesitation while my flock and I followed hesitantly behind. "Who's first?" He asked and I cautiously raised my hand. There was no way I was putting one of my own flock in danger before me. Carlisle nodded at me and pointed to the metal table in the middle of the room. "You can sit there; I will be right with you." And with that he turned away and began going through stuff in his desk.

I hesitantly walked over to the table. After realizing it didn't have any straps I felt a bit more comfortable with sitting down. I sat and waited for Carlisle to come over.

Within a few minutes Carlisle turned and walked over, wearing a pair of latex gloves. "Now, take off your jacket and roll up your sleeve so I can take a look."

I hesitated a moment before slipping my jacket over my head. I was already wearing short sleeves so I didn't have to roll my sleeves up. The area was red and a bit puffy. The stitches looked okay but I knew I was going to have a scar there. I watched as Carlisle dumped some peroxide on a piece of gauze. He stepped over and gently wiped the stitches with the gauze.

It stung like heck but I didn't even cringe, after all the things I had been through this was like heaven. When he was done cleaning it he inspected the wound.

"Well, it seems like it is healing well. I should be able to take the stitches out in a day or 2." He stepped back and looked at the rest of my flock. "Who wants to go next?" he asked and Fang stepped forward.

I gracefully slid off the table and tied my jacket around my waist; it didn't matter to me if they could see my wings. As I stood there and watched Carlisle work on Fangs arm I began to get claustrophobic. I needed to get out of there fast.

I looked Fang in the eyes and he nodded, he always knew what I was thinking. I nodded back and quickly headed out of the room.

I walked down stairs and found the rest of the Cullens still sitting in the living room. All heads turned in my direction when I walked in. All of their eyes zeroed in on the stitches. I heard several gasps from around the room.

"What happened? Are you alright?" Esme asked. I could tell she was concerned and I wasn't sure how to respond. With anyone else I would have given a snarky response like 'Yeah, I'm great! I have never been better!' but with Esme, she was just so kind.

"I'll be fine, just a scratch." I mumbled, loud enough for them to hear.

"I can tell that you're in pain, please tell us what happened." Jasper said sadly. I didn't want to respond but I just couldn't help it.

"It's a tracking chip that the scientist implanted yesterday before I left so that I wouldn't try to run away. It's no big deal so don't worry." They all looked horrified.

"That is terrible! Who would do something like that to a child?" Esme exclaimed. "What kind of horrid place did you come from?" she asked, her voice lowering.

"Do you really want to know or are you just saying that?" I couldn't believe that I was actually asking that! I should have just walked away but I didn't and I guess they deserve to know. It's not like they won't find out eventually.

"We really want to know. We can't even begin to imagine what you and your family have been through but we would like to try." Esme said with a compassionate smile.

"Fine, but it's not a happy story and it doesn't have a happy ending." I started. "Anyway, we were created in a lab called the school by the sickest most horrible scientists alive."

I continued and told them the story of my life. I told them everything, not sparing any details. About half way through the rest of my flock arrived downstairs and listened attentively as if hearing it for the first time. By the end of the story all of the Cullens looked shocked and sad.

"I am so sorry that you had to go through something like that. I promise I will never let anyone hurt you ever again. You guys are all safe with us." Esme said with tear filled eyes.

Out of all the Cullens, I trusted Esme the best. She reminded me of my mom, Dr. Martinez, and showed me everything I could ever want in a mom. If I only had myself to protect I would have probably put all my trust in them, but since I had my flock to protect, I wasn't going to trust them until I was positive they wouldn't hurt my family.

"Well, its life and we have to except it. If I spent my time dwelling on the sucky things in the past, I would have one of the saddest, most sucky lives in the world. Instead, I have decided to move of and live life to its fullest." I said without looking anyone in the eye. Just then Gazzy had to jump in and ruin the mood.

"Wow… Max said something smart!" and just like that he serious mood was gone and we were all laughing. Man, I love Gazzy.
