Ok guys, it's been months since my last update. But with the MAP test, finals, and everything else, life has been pretty hectic right now. I've got an idea of where this story is going, I just need to write it. The votes showed FAX was the highest voted, but I really don't think this will happen anytime soon. The way this story is going, the Fax may not even come for a long time! Ok, enough ranting, here's a little sample of what I have so far…
It was dark, everywhere. The giant trees loomed overhead, blocking out the soft glow of the moonlight. My eyes were burning, stinging with tears. My entire body was trembling. It's been days, three, I think since I left the house. I couldn't continue. I couldn't go on. I can't stand being away from my family. I shifted slightly still clutching my knees. I was too exhausted to cry anymore. I sat there, silently listening to the frogs. I can't keep living like this… and I can't go back. I just need answers… something to tell me what to do…
"Well, well! If it isn't the great Maximum Ride!" Oh no, not him. Not now.
"I was thinking of how to make your life miserable, but apparently your family did it for me." Omega taunted. "They betrayed you, and they can't help you now. Not that they would want to, anyway" His words hurt, as if I was stabbed. I can't help but to choke on my tears. He was breaking me. I can't move, and I don't have the energy to fight back. The worst part is, he's right. I was betrayed, and now I'm alone.
"Don't worry, Max. I'm not here to kill you. When I was at Itex, I learned a lot. I learned how to ruin, and completely demolish one's spirit. And yours is already fragile. All I need, is to finish it." He said. He came over to me and bound my feet. I struggled, but it was pointless. I had no strength left. He grabbed some more rope and got it around my hands but I managed to bite him. He pulled back and backhanded me across my face.
"Just give in, it's no use. Face it, your life is over." He said gripping his arm. He picked me up and dragged me into a clearing. There, was a giant truck. I was so consumed with grief, I must have not heard it coming at all. He threw me into the backseat and laughed. He got into the front and started the truck. I sat there, rolling around in the back, still sobbing. My new power kicked in and replayed the scene over and over, in perfect detail, like I was still there.
They betrayed you… They betrayed you… They betrayed you…
Sorry, mostly a filler preview, but it's definitely a serious chapter. I actually scared myself with this preview. I can write some pretty depressing stuff.
