3rd Person POV

Iggy and the rest of the flock, or what was left of it, were in silence a few moments after Bane Blinked Max away. Just like their previous encounter, they had disappeared in, well, a blink of an eye.

Iggy angrily punched a tree, drawing blood from his knuckles. "I can't believe it! We must be the stupidest family on the planet, letting her go with him!"

"IGGY!" Angel shouted. She lowered her voice. "Please, stop; it took a while to go through his mind, but I got the location of Itex's HQ."

"Well, great, Ange!" Gazzy said. A little hope flared up in the other three. Four, if you count Total.

"Where is it?" Nudge asked.

"It's on a private island in the Caribbean's; He had to think of the location so he could Blink there, which is how I found it. BUT—" she added, as Iggy was about to speak. "He blocked me the moment he sensed me, so they will probably know we'll be there soon."

"He blocked you? So quick!"

She nodded. "I think maybe Bane can seek out telepaths and throw them off. 'Cause I tried to focus on him, but then all of a sudden the thoughts started jumping around from person to person."

Iggy took a deep breath. "Not only are we looking for some tiny, private island, but Angel's probably right about us being expected; there's no doubt that if Bane felt you, Ange, then he'll definitely increase the defense."

Nudge interjected. "Wait—but Bane said that if we follow, then they'll kill Fang. Real Fang. So how do—"

Ig cut her off. "We're going to go; we have to. We can't just leave Max and Fang in the home of our #1 enemy!"

Gazzy grinned. "Bane thinks we're going to stay put so we don't put them at risk, right? Well, that's perfect! Now—"

"—we have the element of surprise because they won't be expecting us," Nudge finished.

Ig smirked. "I think we have a plan, guys…"

Total crawled out from the bushes. "Um, hey guys? You know how we're talking about saving Max and Fang and all? Well….whatever happened to the other Fang?"

Nudge, Iggy, Gazzy, and Angel looked around in uneasiness as they realized Total was right. Amidst all the chaos going on Fang 2 had disappeared.

Angel tilted her head and frowned. "I can't hear anyone else's thoughts besides us four and Total…"

Iggy sighed. "This is bad…"

"They said that Fang 'took a walk.' But let's say it was REAL Fang; they probably want us to think they kidnapped our Fang. But since it was Fang 2 and NOT real Fang, Fang 2 probably just went back to Itex with them. But you know—" Nudge stopped, and frowned, realizing that she was rambling.

Iggy was also frowning. "That actually kida-sorta-maybe made sense. .. So, now both Fangs and Max are at HQ."

"Lovely…" Total grumbled.

Blinking is a weird power. Basically you think of a place, concentrate on what it looks like, and blink! You're there.

However, it doesn't mean that it's a fun ride. I much prefer flying.

The trip only took—well, as long as it takes to blink your eyes. (Not very long…) I got this twisting, turning, flip-flopping feeling in my stomach, though. That's the un-fun part.

Bane had Blinked the two of us straight in front of the fences just outside of the Itex building. We were surrounded by a lot of trees and brush, so perhaps the location was in a forest. It felt like we had moved south, too, according to my inner-compass.

Then I listened more and heard what sounded like waves.

"So, what," I said to Bane flatly, "are we on some teeny island in the middle of the ocean, or what?"

He just glared at me before grabbing both of my arms and pushing me in front of him as we walked towards the gates.

"Tell the Director that I have the Key," Bane told the front guard. His eyes widened at me and he nodded, before opening the gates and allowing us to enter.

"So I'm an item now? Great hospitality. I gotta hand it to ya, you treat your guests pretty darn well," I said sarcastically. "I feel just like a pretty-pretty-princess!" I was pushing it a little, but I really had no intention of being polite to this guy, as you can clearly see.

"Don't worry, Maxie; The Director will treat you just fine. Just…don't scream too loud."

I shut up.

They dragged me into the Directors office. Again. This time, i had new clothes to get into! YIPPEE (not).

..Honestly, I was really getting sick of this guy. All white-haired and black-eyed—laughing at me as he sipped wine from his stupid crystal glass….

I really hate him.

Especially now, as he sat next to me on his stupid white couch, smirking at me with his stupid smirk, and saying nothing with his stupid mouth.

How stupid.

"Look," I said. I made sure to keep it cool so the Arbalest standing in the corner of the room won't jump me. "What's this all about? You don't want information from me, and you're not turning on that TV, so I assume you're not showing me my flock."

He leaned forward and rested his elbows on his knees. Did I mention he was smirking? "Oh, Fang, I'm glad to see that you're so observant!" he chuckled. "You'll have to stay observant a little while longer until my surprise arrives."

Surprise, huh? Suuuure. Maybe if I'm lucky, Ter Borch-y will come by to say hello! I thought sarcastically.

The front door slid open with its usual hiss and what do you know? It was my buddy!

"Ze Key has arrived, sir." Ter Borcht told The Director.

The Director clapped his hands twice in delight, making me roll my eyes. I still hate him.

"Oh, Fang! Don't roll your eyes! You'll love this surprise!"

I glared at him.

The Director sighed and stood. "I was going to be nice so you two could interact, but now I think that may not be a good idea." He snapped his fingers and the Arbalest that was standing by grabbed me from behind and pulled my arms back in a tight hold.

"Hey!"

"It's for your own good, Fang," the Director said, shaking his head sadly.

The doors slid open again and in walked some guy with a black eye mask on, and being dragged along with him was Max.

"Max?" It came out as a whisper, but it was all she needed to stop her own struggling and snap her gaze over to meet mine.

Her eyes widened a fraction, but then she narrowed her eyes and looked between me, the Director, and Ter Borcht.

When looking at Ter Borcht, she scoffed, "You? What the hell are you doing here? If you're looking for more Snickers Bars, I suggest going to Paris. Better chocolate."

I held in a laugh and looked down, again remembering that incident with Gazzy.

"My, my…you are much more lovely than your file bothered to say…" The Director murmured. He had moved from the couch and was now walking in circles around Max, who was still being held by that other guy. She jerked forward and he jerked her back, muttering something into her ear that made her stop.

She looked back at me, and I tried to send her a message, like what we do in our silent conversations. Max didn't seem to be concentrating on my eyes, though, which I found odd. She was inspecting every inch of me—which totally got me confused.

During this time, the Director said, "You can go; thank you for your assistance."

The guy holding Max and Ter Borcht both said, "Me?"

The Director waved his hand in annoyance. "No, not you…Bane." He stressed the name Bane and I caught the slightest nod coming from the Max's guard. "Ter Borcht—you may leave."

He nodded and exited the room.

"Now that we're alone…." The Director cocked his head in thought. "I'd like to thank you for coming on such short notice."

"If you're expecting a "You're Welcome", you're not gonna get it," Max snarled.

This made the Director chuckle. "Max, you are quite the feisty one! I guess your file isn't complete bull, after all."

She didn't respond to that—just kept her chin up high.

The Director sighed and walked by Max to the door. "I shall be back in two. Bane, come with me." Bane released Max roughly so that she was thrust forward. I stiffened at the harsh treatment towards her. Can you blame me? I'm her boyfriend, for God's sake! Well, I think I still am. You think…maybe because of the dirty, rotten, scumbag look-alike….maybe her thoughts have changed…?

Max had stumbled forward, leaning onto the right side of the couch; I was held at the other end.

Bane snapped his fingers and pointed at the Arbalest holding me; he released me and followed Bane out the door.

"Play nice, you two," the Director called as the doors shut.

Now it was just me and Max. But no matter how I tried, I couldn't get any words to leave my mouth. And trust me, I had a lot to say!

Finally, I took a step to my right, around the back of the couch, and started to say, "Max, I—"

She immediately took a step to her right, around the front of the couch, and held up a finger. "Stop. Do not come near me."

I blinked in shock. "What?"

"Don't think I didn't figure it out," she replied, stiffly. "Honey."

Honey? "Wait—what? Honey?" Now she was confusing me. Yeah, we were in trouble, but we're locked in the same damn room!

She looked fed up. "Yes, Honey! Did you already forget about calling me that in the clearing yesterday?"

Clearing….what—Oh.

It was him.

It all clicked into place.

The other Fang called her Honey, not knowing it was a codename, and now she knows he's a fake.

…which is a good thing, except that it looks like she thinks that I am him.

"No—no, Max, I know what you thinking and that's—"

"Save your breath. You have no idea what I'm thinking right now," Max scoffed.

"But it's really ME! Max, you've gotta believe me. I'm the real Fang!" I tried, stepping a few more steps to my right.

Turns out we were moving in a big circle around the sofa. She quickly stepped to her right, so we were still the same distance away from each other. "Shut up. Now you're just trying to.." she stopped and just shook her head.

Confuse you, I finished in my head. She still thinks I'm him and that I'm playing her.

"How do you I'm not the real Fang?" I challenged.

She narrowed her eyes. "I astro-projected myself to the real Fang in my sleep. Which was about two nights ago. He was beat up and bloody, not cleaned up."

I looked down at the clothes the Director had given me; a black button up long sleeve and black jeans. "The Director made me clean up this morning! But that's beside the point; that was really you? You can astral project?" Man, I got more out of her than from what I see on the Director's TV's…

She looked be up and down, and I could tell she still didn't believe me.

"Max, please! How can I prove it?" I asked.

She frowned and crossed her arms. "For starters, explain how you're wearing the same clothes as I last saw you in."

Damn. The Director staged this so that I would look exactly like my clone…

Stupid, stupid, stupid…..I should've refused the clothes!

"Max, I—"

At the same time her eyes widened and she started to say, "Watch o—" but I didn't catch the rest of it, because I blacked out.

I couldn't help but gasp as I saw Bane Blink into the room and drive a nightstick straight into the back of "Fang's" head.

"That was rude," I couldn't help saying. "I was in the middle of a conversation."

Bane glared at me, pointing with his nightstick. "Be careful what you say, Honey. Now just chill until the Director gets here."

Honey? Again? What's with the Honey's?

Then again, the way he said Honey made me freeze, especially when—Hello, the Voice came back—the Voice said, Oh, please, Maximum. Don't tell me you've forgotten our 'Perfect' discussion already?

No, not quite. You were making me see how Fang was not perfect, and fake Fang was. So what?

I swear it sighed. No wonder I'm in your head. You know everything; just put it together.

Fake Fang is perfect, my Fang is not. Okay. What do I do with that info?

Goodbye, Max. You've figured it out.

Wait what? Wait! Fang 2 is perfect so that means…

HOLY CRAP. That was FANG the Bane just knocked out! He was asking questions and talking to me almost desperately, which just maybe could be how my Fang might act in this situation. Perfect Fang would, well, have me convinced in a matter of seconds with his crapola sweet talk.

The point going back to Perfect Fang = Fang 2, and Imperfect Fang = MY Fang. The Fang in the room today stuttered and did everything a "Perfected Clone" wouldn't—or, couldn't—do. They just aren't programmed to mess up.

I raised a hand to my mouth in shock as I looked down at Fang—who was, currently, unconscious on the floor. I glanced up at Bane, who was casually swinging his nightstick in his hand as he watched the door.

Another thought hit me then.

"Be careful what you say, Honey. Now just chill until the Director gets here."

Another Honey. Which Fang 2 had previously called me the other day.

El coinkidink?

Maybe Bane's bringing on the nicknames; but it's either that, or maybe behind that mask of his, is a certain other "Perfect" freak…

Ohhh damn...

.:..::…:::….::::…..:::::…..::::….:::…::..:.

SORRY THIS IS A FILLERRRRR. I hate fillers. But yea, I somehow had to include that maybe-kinda-sorta fact that Bane kinda-maybe-sorta could be Fang 2….

...I SAID NOTHING! U guys are smart readers and figured it out yourself. XD I GAVE AWAY NOTHINGGGG!

So yea, apologies for the Filler, but I'm trying to make the next one really good (It includes more exciting power stuff XD) and I didn't want to keep u guys hanging for too long. ;)

HURRAH FOR 100 REVIEWS!

Lets keep going. ;D
