Demon P.O.V.
Max fell asleep soon after Blade asked Fang if she was asleep. I was really worried, nothing that she had seen before had scared her this badly. This was different, I actually tried to read her mind but she had mentally put up a shield. I sighed and looked over at Fang, he was gazing at Max. I knew that he was as worried as the rest of us, it didn't help that healing powers didn't work on her. We couldn't even heal the wound on her back. Or her broken ribs, words couldn't even nearly express how worried about her we were.
When I woke up the next morning Max was awake, she was lining the backpacks up in straight rows. She was still sat on Fang's knee and he was asleep. That partly explained the whole backpack thing. When she was convinced that she had positioned the backpacks in neat rows she leant back against Fang and closed her eyes. He opened his and I realised that he had been awake the whole time. He caught my eye and cocked his head. I tuned into his thoughts.
"She's been like this all morning." He thought to me. I nodded to show that I had understood the thought and he moved slightly. Max's eyes shot open, however when she realised that he was merely shifting she let them droop closed again.
"Bad nights sleep?" I asked. Fang nodded
"Yeah, she bolted awake every half an hour." He thought. I sighed, I just wish Max would tell us what was wrong. Actually, come to think of it I just wish that she would say anything at all. The only thing that she'd said between her vision and now was the Thank You to Iggy after he had bandaged her up. I was staring to think that she was physically sick. I got up and walked over to Fang, he looked up and motioned that Max had gone back to sleep. Max shifted slightly and for a second I thought that she was having another vision. But then her eyes opened, I let out a breath that I didn't realise that I'd been holding. She looked up at me and I smiled at her she let her head fall back against Fang's chest as if she was satisfied that everything was how it should be. I decided to try and read Max's mind again whilst she was so tired, I knew that it was cheating but it seemed like a good idea. I let my mind wander towards hers. I was surprised when I found out that she had no mental shield up. I could hear a lot in her head but it was all jumbled. I could hear Angel screaming 'Max' and then for a second there was silence before one again I could hear things. This seemed to be from her vision. I heard two loud gunshots and various cries of 'Max'. Then nothing, once again there was silence and then I heard what I assumed was the second part of her vision.
"She's bleeding badly. We need to get her to a hospital." came Fangs voice, Silence and then
"How is she?" Blade's voice asked, years of practice homed in on the concern in his voice. He was scared.
" I'm sorry but Max has been comatose for forty minutes now. There is always the chance that she will wake up but the longer it takes the less chance there is of it happening." Said an unfamiliar woman's voice. After that it was like a torrent of thoughts all at once.
"Max is dead, get over it." Ari snarled in the background, that was the last thing that I could hear before the voices all became one voice.
"You failed." It said.
I hurriedly walked over to Blade and shook him awake. When I told him and Fang what I had heard they both looked at me shocked. Max was lying deathly still in Fangs arms, a skill that she had forced her subconscious mind to learn for when the whitecoats came to collect us during the night. It was useful, they couldn't see us in the cages if we didn't move. Anyway, we all looked at her, she had known that I was reading her mind. There was no way that she couldn't of, I just hoped that she had meant to show me that. What I wanted to know was, was there a way to prevent everything that was happening. I suddenly had an idea, maybe if Max had let me read her mind she would let me and Blade work together to project her memories. I told the other two my idea and they nodded slowly. None of us wanted to see the vision but it might help us aim to prevent it. We took up our positions. Fang had Max on his knee in case she woke up whilst the vision was being projected, me and Blade were side by side. Blade was reading my mind so that he would be able to pick up the thoughts, sounds and sights of the vision. I let my mind wander to Max's mind. Once I was there I kicked in my memories power. I kept strong thoughts in my mind of the vision and soon the memory came to the surface.
