A/N: Here you go. Sorry for the delay. Short attention span. :P All explanations come at the end.

Claimer: Do own this. Do own the song. It's called A Peek. Wrote it just for this. It's about how Jeb turned evil and hurt Max and the Flock.
Chapter 6 - To The Top
Fang's POV
This is getting ridiculous! Everywhere we go screaming fans are three steps behind us! I've been knocked to the ground by girls five times this week. And it's only Monday! I swear, if one more girl tries to get my chest hair to sell on Ebay, I'll go berserk! It took years of eating bread crusts and checking the mirror for me to grow that!
The younger kids and Iggy though... They love it. All the attention, the adoring fangirls. Iggy especially loves the desperate, single girls throwing themselves at him. But of course, I'm spoken for. Oh boy, am I ever spoken for!
The flock finally had some down time; we found a nice secluded spot and set up camp. Though, we'll probably only have another hour or so before they find us.
I pulled Max closer to me and gave her a quick kiss. Of course, she wouldn't settle for that. By the time they found us, I was shirtless, shoeless, and sockless. Max was in a similar state of undress. That was fun. I hope you caught the sarcasm.
That same guy–Patch?–came for Max, practically foaming at the mouth. And is that...Lissa?! Lissa came running at me, tackling me to the ground with hugs and kisses.
"Oh Nicky! I missed you so much! And then I saw you on TV and I heard the rumors that you were with your sister. I just knew it wasn't true because we had something special. Nickikins!" Smooch, kissy, slurp. Gag. My. Lungs. Up.
I wrestled the red head off me and looked to help Max. From the looks of it, two guys were fighting for Max.
"Give it up, Jack!" Patch yelled.
"NEVER! MAX WILL BE MINE! I LOVE HER AND SHE LOVES ME!" As if. He seems as crazy, if not more crazy than Patch. I ran over there and solved their question. Max loves me. Hm. It sounds like little five year old kids fighting over who mommy loves most. I guess, in a way, we are.
After a long, hard fight, the flock and I managed to escape the evil clutches of the rabid fans. Off we flew into the setting sun.
Max's POV
Our song Look Up was on every top chart you could imagine. No, really. We were on the Top 40 Hits, Top Pop, Top Rock, Top Punk, Top Ska, Top Emo, Top Rap, Top Trance, etc. You've heard it, we dominated it. The reason was unfathomable to me. We don't even fit into half of those categories. Us mutant bird kid freaks, we're moving up in the world. I felt a sudden urge to sing and dance. What the hey, why not?
I got up and moon walked singing "NA NANANA! DA NAAA NA! DA NANA NA! CAN'T TOUCH THIS! OOOOH! CAN'T TOUCH THIS!" I froze, a deer in the headlights look painted on my reddened face. Fang stood there, trying to withhold his laughter, a VIDEO CAMERA in his hands.
Max, the Voice suggested, you might want to get that tape. And perhaps run. You're fans will be coming in 3-2-1.
I groaned. Another fun meeting with Patch and Jack. Ugh. Well they'll just have to wait to see us at the show tonight. So there. We got out of there like all get out, hoping not to lose any body parts in the process.
Jack's POV
Little did my precious Max know, I had seen her entire dance. Fang's not the only one with incredible super sneaky ninja powers.
Patch is officially my mortal enemy. He will NOT get my Max. NEVER! I hurried to the concert theater in hopes of getting there before Patch does. I deserve to be front row for my love.
SC
Max's angelic voice came over the speaker system beginning a song I hadn't heard yet.
Have a peek into my mind
Take a trip through time.
See what you fixed
Then ruined again.
The tuba came in on a do-dum-do-dum-do-dum thing. Nudge and Angel started doing a James Bond daaaaa-daaaa-aaaaaa-ddaaaaa thing as Fang did a simple beat.
You're such a trickster.
You came around
Making me feel better.
Weasling your way
Into my heart.
Those lyrics. They get ya right there. In the heart.
Once my trust was gained,
You switched your gears
Twisting my heart again.
Insert guitar solo here. Fang aka Screamer Dude sang/screamed the next few lines.
My emotions are scattered
My hopes are tattered.
You built me up
Then tore me down.
Max surprised me, and I'm sure everyone else when she joined with the screaming for the last lines.
Congratulations, you bastard.
I'm broken forever.
A short, but powerful song. Makes me love my Max even more.
The Voice's POV
Max, tread carefully. You are on your way to saving the world. But there are people who will get in your way.
"Like who?" she asked me.
It will all come to you in due time.
I ignored her other questions. Soon, my little baby girl will rid the world of the one true demon- bad music.
A/N: Jack is Shadow the Bird Kid (from both the MR boards and Patch is from earlier chapter. I know I didn't have much, but hopefully it's still good?
The Voice's POV was very important. The "baby girl" thing is based on the theory a member of our school's book club has. It'll be explained in later chapters.
And yes, finally, we know what the world must be saved from. Bad music. Review, please?
