Chapter 9: True Feelings

**Kayla's POV**

I walked out of the cafeteria with butterflies in my stomach and it wasn't because of the food this time.

Why does birdbrain always have to mention Justin around me?She knows I like him,why can't she just keep her mouth shut.

As I walked into the training center,I noticed how many people there were in there.

Huh,that's weird. There are usually a lot more people here.

I spotted Kianna from across the room and made my way towards her. She gave me a questioning look as I got closer.

"Hey,have you noticed that this place is almost empty?"

"Actually,yes I have. I saw a whole group of kids lead out by white coats outside the cafeteria,but they haven't come back yet."

"Do you think they ever will?"

I shrugged my shoulders.

"Only time will tell."

I turned around to walk back to my room and crashed into a Juggernaut like creature. I looked up to see Justin with a tired look on his face. I struggled to get words out as heat rose to my cheeks.

"Uh-h-hi J-Justin."

"Sup Snow Cone."

I blushed at the nickname he gave me.

"Hey Justin,didn't get much sleep huh?"

"Nah fam,they dragged me back out for testing early in the morning."

"How do you feel?"

"Just fine Snow Cone,just a little tired. I think I might just head back to my room."

Justin had a rough past. He's a dual recumbent in terms that the white coats were attempting to do a chimera type project where they grafted two or more different species of animal DNA into human DNA. In Justin's case(who has both rhino and gorilla DNA grafted into his DNA), they were trying to create a hybrid that had incredibly offensive and incredibly defense so that they could sell it to the highest bidder and have it be a total unstoppable force of nature. He was a tall guy with large broad shoulders and bulging muscles. His once long wild hair is now a short buzz-cut and his toned skin went perfectly with his beautiful gray eyes.

They didn't expect for it to fall in love with one of the other weaker hybrids, but when they found out, they let the love grow only to murder the female hybrid while she was carrying their child.

"The strong don't belong with the weak."They told him.

This effectively broke him and he was like a blank slate. He had extreme difficulty trusting people,regardless of if they are a hybrid or 100% human and literally did what he was commanded. Once,he was ordered to kill someone and as he was about to do so, he turns and sees a young child in the corner crying her eyes out at seeing this big bad monster destroying her he remembers who he once was before he broke and he comes back to reality. That young child was Leslie,and he had her memory erased so she wouldn't remember it. That's why she's such a ditz,her sister died from blood loss from the beating Justin gave her. He felt so bad about it he wanted everyone to stay away from him. But that made me love him even more. I knew that he didn't kill Leslie's sister out of cold blood,he wasn't himself and he's regretted it ever since. You can see it on his face sometimes. Now he hides it very well. He's been more open,but I know deep down that he holds onto the guilt when Leslie's sister's death isn't his fault. That's the kind of man that I love,a humble man. Even if he is afraid of losing himself.

"Hey Justin,have you noticed that a lot of kids have gone missing?"

"Nah,I'm too tired to notice of which,I'm going to my room,to take a nap. See you ladies later"
"Later dude."

"Get some rest,I'll save you some food for dinner."

He smiled at me for the first time.

"Thanks Snow Cone."

I smiled back at him.

"No problem."

With that he walked back to his room. Kianna leaned back with a smirk on her face.

"Smooth."

She walked towards the weights and began lifting.

He smiled at me.

Its taken so long for him to even look at me,then even longer for him to talk to me. Now I think he trusts me.

He might even like me.

My thoughts were interrupted by the screams of the other experiments. I heard something heavy drop. I looked to see Kianna on her knees holding her head.

"Agghhh!"

"Kianna! What's wrong?"

Then her eyes turned jet black and the suddenly wind began to blow.

**Kianna's POV**

My ears began to ring as my head began spinning. I dropped my the weights I was lifting and collapse to the ground,holding my head in pain.

"Agghhh!"

I felt Kianna's hand on my back.

"Kianna! What's wrong!

I felt a gusts of wind appear around me,and suddenly I saw something. I saw a girl with long white hair and milky white eyes and wings.

Is that an Angel?

She looked as if her soul was being sucked out of her. The image shifted into something different and suddenly I was in a field of fire. I looked up and I saw a flash of bright light take over the sky. Suddenly the ground rose beneath me and I was in the sky. I saw a familiar wave of blonde hair with beautiful golden streaks.

Max?

Then I suddenly dropped down from the sky. I was suddenly back in the training center. I felt like I just had the wind knocked out of me.

(A.N.You know that feeling when you're dreaming and you fall down and you wake up with the feeling that you fell from the sky. Yeah something like that...Continue...)

I didn't know what had just happened,but I knew that it meant something bad was going to happen.

**Kayla's POV**

Kianna sat back up and drew in shuddering breathes. Nurses started piling in behind us.

"Kianna,Kianna! Are you okay?"

"I'm fine. But I have a feeling something bad is going to happen."

"What do you mean?"

She tried to pull me in to whisper in my ear,but I was pulled away by the other nurses. Kianna was lifted up and I was forced away from her as they carried her out of the center.

"Kianna!"

They disappeared behind the doors and I was left alone with whispers and murmurs surrounding me.

"Something bad is going to happen."

Kianna's words repeated in my head,over and over again. I don't know what she saw,but she looked spooked. Since people have been going missing,I had a feeling that this was no joke.

I saw Zayn walk into the center and decided to talk to him about it.

"Zayn! Come here!"

Whats up?"

"Did you see Kianna get carried off?"

"Yeah,what happened to her?"

"I'm not sure. She had some kind of premonition and the nurses took her away."

"She had a what?"

"A premonition. She had some kind of vision."
"You mean like Kana?"

"Yeah,Kianna's clairvoyant powers aren't fully awakened yet."

Zayn gave me a concerning look.

"I heard a rumor that she was clairvoyant but I didn't believe it was true."

"Look,once Kia snapped out of it,she said 'something bad is going to happen'."

I gave him a look of worry as I quoted what Kia had said.

"I wouldn't be surprised,lately Kana has been kind of shady."

I gave him a confused and angry look

"What do you mean?"

"Look,a couple years ago I saw something that had to do with Kana,a strange woman and a deal about Blake. Now you know how Kana is about Blake so I knew that something was up. "

Kana is a calm and gentle soul with a dark past,but once you get to know her,she's a very caring person who will do anything for her family. So when Blake's condition didn't stabilize,she became very distant,but I doubt she would work for someone evil just to save Blake. At least I hope she wouldn't.

"Are you sure you didn't see something different?"

"Look into my memories,you'll see."
I touched Zayn's temples with my hands and I was warped into his head. I watched as a young blonde haired woman shaking hands with Kana. I let of go of Zayn.

"Wow,but that still doesn't prove anything. For all we know,that could have been some kind of test or something."
"Kayla,why would I lie about this?"

He had a point. Zayn wouldn't lie about something this big.

"Look,all I'm saying is that between the kids missing and dying and Kia's vision and Kana's dark past; I honestly think we shouldn't rule her out as a suspect just yet."

I was about to object what he said,when Max walked in with a giant half-transformed Eraser and a look of anguish on her face. She walked over to us slowly as the eraser walked out. Zayn approached her first.

"What's wrong crybaby?"

"Yeah what happened?"

Max looked up from the ground.

"Is there somewhere we can talk privately?"

"No,not really,but the best place to talk would be in the cafeteria,they don't monitor us that much in there."

"Then let's go there."

We ended up walking back into the crowded the cafeteria which was strangely still busy. We sat down at a corner table that was farthest away from anyone.

"So what's up Max?"

"How did your meeting with the doctor go?"

"Wait you met the doctor?"

I was astonished when Max noded her head.

"After you left the cafeteria,Max was requested by the doctor himself."

"Wow,what did he want with you?"

Max spoke with disbelief in her voice.

"He completed the research."

"Huh?"

"He completed the research that they started on me years ago. Now they're going to turn me into some kind of weapon that they can control."

**Max's POV**

**FLASHBACK**

"Yes,I'm pregnant."
Ari hugged me as hard as he could,trying to comfort me,but it was no use. The horrified look on my face gave it away. They knew what had happened and Jeb's dead body was reminder of leaned back and put his hands on his temples in frustration.

"Wow. Well this complicates things. We'll just have to abort it."

No matter how much I didn't believe in abortion,I couldn't stand the thought of having that monsters baby grow inside of me made me sick to my stomach. Tears streamed down my cheek as I nodded in agreement to abort the baby.

"Wonderful! We'll take care of that later when we put you into isolation and run tests and procedures on you."
Ari let go of me as I began to wipe away my tears.

"Excuse me?"
"You will be isolated and put through multiple tests and surgeries."
"Why?Why are you doing this to me?! Why don't you see that I'm not your guinea pig!? I'm a human being!"

GH chuckled and shook his head.

"Well not exactly. Besides Maximum,did you really think that you would stay here scott-free? Nooo! Of course not! We brought you here for a reason,and that's to develop your powers and use you as a vessel of power that we can control and use to cleanse this world."

I stood there in a state of shock,disbelief and anger.

"Well,you're out of luck because I don't have any powers."

"On the contrary my dear,you have power. Tons of it in fact,you just haven't tapped into it. You haven't fully awakened to your full potential for you to do that,you must let go of those closest to your heart. So that means harden your heart,look at the bigger picture be a LEADER. All things that Jeb has tried to teach you,but let his emotions get in the way. You need to let go of your mother and sister and the flo-"

"Wait,what do you mean let go of my mother?WHAT DID YOU DO TO AND ELLA?!"

GH leaned back in his chair with a calm look on his face.

"They're dead,so you need to let go of them. That's what I mean."

At that point I couldn't control myself. I lunged at and managed to scatch him on the face. Pixel grabbed me and pulled me back while I went haywire.

"YOU BASTARD! I'LL KILL YOU! I'LL KILL YOU ALL!"

Crying isn't really my thing,I mentioned that before right? So for me to cry right now just goes to show how everyone has a breaking point. And I was about to reach mine.

"Ari,take her back to the center. I'm going to go take care of my face.."

I watched GH get up and leave the room,holding the bleeding welt on his face out of the corner of my eye as Ari walked me out.

"Come on sis."
My sobs slowly subsided and I was left in a state of disbelief and anguish. Suddenly a voice of reason popped into my head.

Max,you have two options. You can either break OR you can harden your heart. Even though Jeb raped you,what he said was right, You need to harden your heart if you want to survive this hell you call life. Decide Max,because you don't have much time.

(A.N.FYI this is Max's voice,not The Voice...continue)

**FLASHBACK END**

**Kayla's POV**

Max's face of anguish turned into one of anger.

" They think that I'm going to be their puppet. The flock is here somewhere,Angel is having her soul sucked out of her. And it's all for the power. All they want is the power to take over."

Max got angrier and angrier with each word.

"Uhh Max?"

Sparks began to fly off of her body.

"What's going on?"

"I don't know! Whatever was making her mad,I think is causing her to awaken."

"Yo Max,you alright? Come on,talk to me."

Zayn and I stood up from the table and began to back away as her sparks began to get out of control. Her hair began to float above her as the sparks grew. By now,all eyes were on her.

"All they want is power,and they're willing to do ANYTHING to get it! They killed my mother and sister;they captured the flock;they're electrocuting Angel. They RAPED me. When will they STOP?!"

A small blast threw me and Zayn back into the wall as Max stood up.

"Max!"

The sirens began to go off and all hell broke loose. Max suddenly got super powerful,and her power was overwhelming. Waves of energy brought me to my knees. Zayn helped me up as all the other experiments ran. Maya suddenly rushed in with a squad of Erasers close on her heels.

"CONTAIN MAXIMUM RIDE! JUST DON'T DAMAGE HER TOO MUCH! GO! GO!GO!"

The Erasers lunged at Max,but it was no use. They were no match for her. Max struck them all down with just a flick of her hand. Maya unfurled her wings and cracked her knuckles.

"Looks like it's just you and me bitch."
Max smirked as she unfurled her wings.

"No,it's not."

Maya lunged at her and tried to attack,but Max dodged it. This was a one sided battle Max barely had to bat an eye before sending Maya flying through the next room.

"Zayn! We need to get everyone away from them."

"How do we do that?"

"I hate to say it,but get the whitecoats."

Zayn ran out of the room as Maya was blown past me. I covered my eyes,to prevent the debris from getting in my eyes. I uncovered them to see Maya knocked out and blood pouring from her head.

"Max?"

Max turned and looked at me,giving me a cold stare.

"What?"
"Do you...remember me?"

Max's cold stare turned into a snarky smile.

"Why wouldn't I remember my own frie-"

It was almost in slow motion. Max's power faded and her eyes rolled back as she collapsed to the ground. I watched as Pixel's hand sparks subsided as Max laid there unconscious.

"MAX! NOOO!"
The fire in me burst as I lunged at Pixel,but I wasn't on her level. Her foot swung and landed in my gut. A sudden spark came from her foot and it instantly extinguished by fire and sent me flying into a table. I collapsed in a painful heap on the floor,but managed to get back up.

"Experiment 5396620-a, Stand down or you will be neutralized."

I had no choice but to stand down. I watched Zayn hurry in with white coats and guards trailing behind him. He rushed towards me and looked me over for injuries.

"Holy shit! Kayla what happened?! Are you okay?"

I struggled to catch my breathe as I held my sore arm.

"I'm fine,but my arm might be sprained."

"Where's Max?"

"Over there."

I pointed behind him to where white coats were crowding around Max's unconscious body.

"Let's go help her."

"You will not."

I turned to see Dwyer standing above us with her tablet and a look of annoyance.

"Or what bitch?"

Fire inched its way to my hair as it ignited in pure rage.

"Watch your tone 5396620-a. Don't forget that you can be dissected at any time I like."
I growled at her as my flames diminished.

"Look Dwyer,I called you here. Without me,you wouldn't have known Max did this so back off okay?."

"Oh you've got quite the tongue on you 367282-a. But that mouth will soon be put to good use soon."

(A.N.She doesn't mean sex!Get your mind out of the GUTTER!)

She turned and walked away. We watched Max being carried out of the room as Pixel carried Maya.

"Okay,something is definitely going on around here."

"Yeah and I know exactly who to talk to."

Zayn helped me up and lead me to a familiar door,that I felt a dark aura from.

"Zayn,where are we?"
"This is Blake's room."

**Zayn's POV**

Kayla and I stood in front of Blake's metal door. I knocked on it,but heard nothing from the other side. I typed in the password and entered his room cautiously. Blake's room was bright white,but I could feel the darkness emanating from every corner. Blake was sitting on his bed quietly with a look of sadness on his face. He perked up slightly when we walked in.

"Blake!"

Kayla ran over to him and hugged him tightly. Blake was surprised but hesitantly hugged her back.

"It's so good to see you Blake."

"What's up man?"

I approached Blake and fist bumped him.

"What're you guys doing here?"

"I missed you,he just wants to interrogate you."

Kayla shot me a dirty look while I shot one back at her.

"No I didn't. I came here to ask you about your sister."
Blake's head fell .

"She hasn't visited me at all. I think she just can't stand seeing me. Or maybe she just can't stand me."

Tears began to form in his eyes. Kayla wiped them away.

"Blake,that's not true. Your sister loves you very much, She just doesn't like seeing you in your worse. She wants to see you healthy and strong. I promise,she's doing everything she can to help you."
"Yeah and that's the problem."

Blake gave me a confused look.

"What do you mean?"
"Blake,how do your experiments work?"
"They insert different stuff inside of me that helps me live,it hurts like hell and it doesn't last long but it's nice to live peacefully for a day or two. Why ?"

"Well,I think that Kana is using her powers to suck the powers out of others to insert into you."
"Zayn!"

"What Kayla? I'm only telling him something."
"He's only 13."

"So what? Look Blake,I don't want you thinking any less of your sister,but I think she might be killing other experiments to keep you alive."

Blake's face went blank,obviously unable to comprehend what was being said.

"Blake don't listen to him okay"

"Wait,so you're telling me that my sister is killing our friends to save me?"
"That's what I think."

"But I don't want that. Living isn't that great for me. I'd rather be dead. Death will put me at peace."

"Blake don't say that! I want you to live."

"Kayla,Zayn. Please tell my sister to stop killing others to save me. I don't wanna be saved tell her that I want to die."

Blake stood up from his bed and unfurled his mismatching wings. One was white and the other was black. His black wing was slightly twisted and the white wing had many feathers missing.

"This isn't living. I'm not free, I;m simply a caged bird who sings for its for me is death."

Blake winced as he folded his wings back,I could tell they didn't fold perfectly anymore. He then laid back down in his bed with tears in his eyes. Kayla stroked his hair.

"It's okay Blake get some rest. We'll talk to your sister."

"Thanks man,I'm sorry you're still living this way though, But don't worry,you'll get better."

I gave him a hug and walked out. Kayla waited for me in the now empty training center.

"I'm gonna go talk to Kana about this.I'm still not convinced"
"Alright,but what I said is true."

"I'll find out for myself. See you later!"

Kayla walked away,her snowy hair disappeared behind the corner. It wasn't until after she left I felt someone's presence.

"You can stop hiding in the shadows Kana,I know you're there."

Kana stepped out of a corner with a dagger in her hand and tears in her eyes.

"Why couldn't you have just kept your mouth shut Zayn? Why do you keep on getting into my business?"

"Why couldn't you just let your brother die instead of making him live in a living hell?You're being selfish!"

"Look Zayn! Just because you got over your brother's and sister's death so easily,doesn't mean you have the right to push others into doing the same thing! And the only reason why you got over their deaths so easily is because YOU DIDN'T LOVE THEM!"

Now that set me off. I lunged at her,barely dodging the knife that she tried to stab me with. I knocked it out of her hand and pushed a thunder wave at her,sending her into a set of weight racks. She suddenly appeared behind me in a burst of shadowy dust. She knocked me off balance and placed her two hands on my heart.

"Tollite itaque multi mortales!"

I suddenly felt as if my soul was being sucked out of me. My back arched as I struggled for air. Then it stopped. As soon as it stopped,I headbutted Kana and Thunder Kicked her into a wall,where she hit her head and was left slightly dazed.

"I'm sorry Kana."

**Maya's POV**

I watched through the glass as they carried her unconscious body into the white isolation room. I suddenly found beside me.

"So her powers have finally awoken?"
"It seems like only ones who saw how it happened were Experiments 5396620-a & 367282-a."

"You mean Zayn and Kayla?"
'Yes."

"Welp,I did tell her to prepare herself for the hell she'll experience,but she didn't listen."

A smirked crept onto my lips as I imagined the things that she'll be put through.

Karma sure as hell is a bitch Maximum Ride.

I rubbed the sore spots on my face and arms from the battle I had with her earlier.

And you're about to get your share of it.

Hey guys,so Justin is a new OC that was created by EdgeBlade25. I know it's not exact,but I hope I portrayed him well enough for you dude.I was trying something new where I used one POV and while she tells their POV,other people's POV's interrupt to explain it. I did it with Kayla's POV and had Max's and Kianna's POV interrupt. I think I did pretty good. Also,I did some thinking,and I realized that the way Zayn fights is like airbending where when he punches,the punches with air too. I'm sorry,I didn't notice until my friend brought it up. So the Thunder Kick and Thunder Punch,Yeah just think of it as him shooting sound waves at peeps when he ? Good,Now it's time for...

Explanation Time!Come on Grab your friends! I will explain things,beginning to end.

1.Kayla likes Justin (I'm trying to give them a Gajeel and Levy relationship from Fairy Tail but it's kind of hard because of Justin's past. His character reminds me of a more complex Gajeel but there are certain aspects of his personality that makes it kind of hard. His original character was supposed to be a broken but hardcore person who fell in love once but never loved again who doesn't trust anyone and is a mindless soldier who only follows I think I have a plan for him.)

2. Zayn is immune to Kana's ability to take powers away (IDK why or how yet?)

3. Kana lost to Zayn

4. Justin killed Leslie's sister,but Leslie doesn't remember because her memory was erased (Or was it?)

5. Kianna is somewhat clairvoyant. She gets small visions that she can't control. This is kinda new for her so if I don't portray her views properly,tell me.

6. Max's lighting power is kind of like Laxus' from Fairy Tail. If you guys want her power to be something else,just tell me.

7. In The School, the experiments/patients call a person getting their powers 'awakening'. It means that their powers have awakened inside of them. It's a term that all use.

8. Max is in isolation for testing.

9. This was a SUPER DUPER LONG Explaination Time. LOL! GOOD NIGHT!
