Hey, sorry, I have a bunch of notes today. First off, dear Mooing Llama, no I won't rewrite that chapter, sorry. Please keep reading, the drama makes it so much more fun! But, FAX will probably reunite because the chapters without it totally suck. Trust me, I already have a bunch written, they won't last long with out each other. And, I'm going to be putting up a new story in maybe a week. I don't want to give away to much detail, yet. It has NOTHING to do with this story, though. It'll be called Maximum Ride: When Worlds Collide, keep an eye out for it, okay? And sorry, but this chapter is a little short, review anyways!

Disclaimer: I don't own the Maximum Ride characters mainly because I'm not the person we've all come to know and love.

Claimer: I thought about it, and I only own half this plot because James Patterson gave me the idea. Charity, Rayne, Abbey, and half this plot are TOTALLY mine though.

Chapter 11: Saying Good Bye

Max's POV

I cried myself to sleep that night. I the morning I dried my eyes, waited for the swelling to go down, and went downstairs for breakfast.

"Morning Max!" Nudge greeted me cheerfully. I waved and slumped onto a kitchen chair. Iggy pushed a plate of eggs, bacon, and pancakes in front of me.

"Don't ask where I got the food. Really weird mutants. Trust me you don't want to know." He half explained. I smiled and dug in. I kept my face on my food when Fang walked in and crumpled in the chair next to me. Do I act like nothing happened? Should we tall the flock? His knee hit mine gently and when I looked up to tell him off, he shook his head almost imperceptibly. I nodded and finished my breakfast quickly.

The next 2 days went by slowly. We did tell the flock we broke up though.

"Why aren't you 2 all over each other?" Gazzy asked later that day. I sighed.

"Um, this isn't exactly how we wanted to tell you." Fang began and paused, unsure of himself.

"Oh, God. Fine, if you 2 can't tell them I will. These 2 idiots broke up." Iggy burst and there were loud protests from the others. I shrugged and nodded.

"Look, we're older than you all. I know you want an explanation, but you guys won't understand. I'm sorry." I said, pissed that Iggy had blabbed with news this important. They had all looked so sad, but they knew we wouldn't tell them if we didn't want to. They nodded sadly and hugged me and Fang.

All I mainly did was pack and prepare. We had decided that for our first mission we'd stay close to Anne's. I figured it would only take few hours at the most. But, at least 2 rooms needed to be prepared and the house needed to be purged of a thick layer of dust.

Finally the time had to come to say good bye. I know what you're thinking. If you'll only be gone for a few hours total, why is saying good bye so hard? Well, we had no idea what type of resistance we'd meet.

The 9 of us walked down to the end of Anne's long drive way together.

"Okay, you 4 be good." I had decided the night before that I wanted Abbey with me. They nodded.

"Come home as soon as possible." Angel said sadly. She hugged her brother and I kissed her forehead.

"Fang's in charge," I was going into crazy mom mode, "Leave the house looking NICE. Be ready to teach people how to kick butt when we get back," We walked out of the gate, "Love you guys!" We all hugged. Except me and Fang who I waved to.

Taking off, I looked back and saw Fang watching us, well me, carefully. I smiled slightly and the 5 of us flew south together.

Okay, so that chapter was REALLY short. If I don't get at least 5 more reviews though, this story is going on hold. Sorry to those of you who do review, but I want to get tons of reviews for this story and apparently it's very difficult to hit that little button at the bottom of the page and type 'great story so far' or 'you're a sucky writer' or even 'I hate yo story, bitch!' Whatev, just keep an eye out for my new story okay?
