Thank you all for reviewing. Although, only seven people reviewed, I didn't want to keep the people that did review waiting. So, as promised, here is Chapter 11.
Disclaimer: I don't own Maximum Ride. You don't own Maximum Ride.
_Max POV
After a delicious dinner, we all continued to clean up the house. At around nine, the whole kitchen and Living Room was clean, and short after, so was the upstairs.
We all were so tired. Cleaning can really tire a person out.
"Who wants hot chocolate?" asked Iggy bringing out a tray with eight cups of hot chocolate. "I've more for everyone else, just give me a sec."
He brought out the second the second tray and I grabbed one. For a moment, it seemed like everything was like it used to be.
Then Gazzy's toxic fumes brought me out of my dream land.
"EWWW!" the majority of our happy bunch of freaks exclaimed.
I just plugged my nose and laughed at Kasie's groups' reactions.
I snuck a glance over at Fang, and saw him doing the same thing.
Then, a thought popped into my head.
What are we gonna do about sleeping arrangements?
I went over to talk to Kasie, and we came up with a chart that would work perfectly.
"Guys, guys," I said trying to get them to calm down.
"Guys," Fang said. Wth? Everyone just completely fell silent. I'd have to shoot a firework at them to get that kind of reaction. He just smirked at me. That butthead.
"Okay, we have to think about sleeping arrangements. I have come up with a chart, you know, being the extremely organized person I am," I said with every word drenched in sarcasm. "Everyone, come look over here." They all crowded over by me to get a good look at what room was theirs and who their room partner was.
So, here it is:
Kasie and Paisley in my room.
Hallie and Cylie in Nudge's room.
Nudge and Angel in Angel's room.
Ella and Maya in the guest room.
Tyler and Dylan in Dylan's room.
Iggy and Gazzy in Iggy's room.
Ryder and Neo in Gazzy's room.
Last but not least, me and Fang in Fang's room.
What? There's nothing wrong with that. I mean, its not like we going to anything bad- again.
"Everybody good?" I said specifically talking to Dylan and Tyler, considering they just met, and yet they were shaing a room, but by the looks of it, they seemed to have become pretty good friends.
"Okay, well everyone off to bed. Now," I firmly stated.
They all grumbled, but one by one, they all headed up, until it was Kasie and Paisley left.
"Thanks again Max, for letting us all stay here," she thanked.
I smiled. "No prob. Good night," I said ruffling Paisley's hair.
She really is a cute kid. Reminds of Angel.
"Max? You tired?" asked Fang, bringing me out of my thoughts.
"Yeah, I guess."
"Lets go up then," he said motioning to go up.
I lifted my arms like a child would if they wanted to be picked up. "Carry me?" I asked with a baby voice.
Fang rolled his eyes and walked over to me. He then picked my up bridal style and began to walk steadily up the stairs.
"You're getting heavier," he commented.
I stuck my tongue out like a child, and swatted his arm.
Fang finally reached his room, and we both got into bed. All the rooms had bunk beds, so I took top and he took bottom. What? Did you really think I was going to sleep in the same bed as him again? No. That was like a one night thing. Sure, we're dating, but what we did was just for my birthday. That is not going to become some regular thing. Not. At. All. The last thing I need is for Gazzy, or Nudge, or worse… Angel. It was bad for them to catch us in a make-out session, but…. Doing it? That would be the end of "Maximum Ride the Leader".
"Night Max," Fang called up to me.
My eyelids all of the sudden seemed really heavy. "Night Fang," I mumbled, fighting back the urge to not even respond.
Eventually, my eyes got so heavy, and I fell into a very nice sleep; all until 8:30.
That's when the screaming started.
Hallie POV
Me and Cylie headed upstairs to go to sleep.
Can I just say: Best. Room. Ever! It was pink on the walls, and purple on the other two. It was the most unique thing I had ever seen.
"Which one do you want?" asked Cylie. I had assumed she was talking about the bed.
"The top one," I answered.
"Not the beds, stupid. Guys! Do you want the blind hottie, or the future telling freak."
"Hey!" I exclaimer, somewhat offened.
"Well?"
"Dylan. He is so cute! I can't believe Max hasn't already snagged him up."
"She's too busy with Mr. Don't Talk. But I will admit, he is pretty hot. "
"Yeah, but from what I tell, they are like together together. I wouldn't touch him if I were you."
Cylie scoffed . "I'll think about it."
I rolled my eyes. That girl is one mega flirter. "Can we just go to bed Ms. Flirtatious?"
"Sure. Night Hal," she said sounding sleepy."
"Night Cylie."
And with that, I was off on my journey to the depths of the blissful world of slumber.
I was flying. All I saw was mountains. And some houses, but they were very spread apart. There was one where every light was off, yet black cars surrounded the perimeter.
The house belonged to the flock. I was inside.
I flew as close as possible without being seen by the people.
"Are the Subjects ready for attack?" asked a man.
The red haired girl responded," Yes. Active plan Maximum Termination," she said grinning coldly.
The man nodded and went to speak with the head subject I assumed.
The red haired girl, just stared off into space, not moving at all. Then she looked right at where I was hiding. Crap.
She walked closer and closer, until all that was separating us was a tree trunk.
Right when I thought my life had ended, she turned and walked away.
Thank God! I cheered.
I peered around the corner, but instead of finding a stake out of evil scientist, I saw open land.
Then I turned my attention toward the house. It was entirely surrounded.
I saw someone, or something, picking the lock to get in the Kitchen door.
Ugghh. We just cleaned that!
Just then, I heard some rustling behind me. I zipped around and saw the same thing that was picking the lock, practically breathing down my neck.
"Boo!" it whisper yelled.
I threw my eyes open, and saw the same thing I saw in my dream, standing over me.
"Boo!" it whispered yelled.
So then I did the only thing I thought was possible: Screaming.
Unknown POV (same one)
Finally! We are minutes away from setting our plan into action.
Me and Brigid went through this plan so many times, it seemed utterly impossible for this mission to fail.
"Dr. Dwyer? Do you read me? I repeat do you-" asked someone over the radio.
"Yes I read you!" hissed Brigid. "What do you want?"
She seemed a bit on edge. I understand though. I heard that her and Maximum met a while ago, and even then, they seemed to not get along.
"Squad D7 has reached the mountain, and we have a visual on everyone. Every room is located on the back, and oddly enough, every window is somewhat open. Are you almost here?"
Brigid gave a sickening grin, only to make one appear on my face.
"We will be there momentarily. No one is given the permission to do anything regarding to the plan," she replied firmly,
"Yes Dr. Are expiraments still behind you?"
"Yes. They will arrive the same time be and my partner do," she said flashing me smile.
I returned her smile. What? I may be evil, but that doesn't mean I can't smile.
"Okay then. I'll see you soon. Over."
Brigid turned to me. "So I don't think I ever asked you this, but why were you so willing to help us try and kill Maximum?"
"Well it all started when Jeb offered me this job, and I accepted it, and I became a tester. You know, like the person to do all the tests on animals, and eventually children."
"You didn't think the idea of testing things on children was… wrong?"
"Not at all. It fascinated me. To see the reactions of all the tests. Some of the children were okay right after the test, but died soon after, and the some died instantly. It didn't really bother be. You know how I always loved dissection in grade school."
Brigid chuckled. "Yeah. Mom always thought you were a freak for liking that. But she also thought I was a freak for graduating high school when I was 12."
"Mom wasn't to fond of freaks."
"Not at all. But continue your story"
"Okay, well after a while, Jeb came to me with his child- Maximum Ride. He said she was injected with avian DNA, and had wings.
They were beautiful. He was a genius for thinking of something like that.
So, he put me as her main tester. Then over the course of 7 years came Subject 2, 3, 4, 5, and then 6. Her whole flock. Although, if you asked any of them if they remembered me, they probably wouldn't.
Maximum was always stubborn. Even when she was a infant and toddler. As she got older she started to struggle against her restrains even more. She got free this one time and gave me my worse scar ever. Ever since then I hated her.
I was still her main tester and I hated it. I tried to get moved to one of her flock, but they wouldn't let me. So she continued to be a complete brat, until one day when she escaped and ran wild.
She gave me more bruises and scars, and then I finally snapped. The next I was going to kill her.
No one knew of my plans though. I was worried someone would stop me. I was just going to say that a test went wrong and she died, but then Jeb ruined it.
The day she was going to die, Jeb had let them free and took them to that house.
Ever since then, I swore I would kill her if it was the last thing I did.
Then when she destroyed the original School, I was one of the few that survived.
I helped rebuild the School of today, and that was I ran into you. I always thought that day you went of to Antarctica that I'd never see you again. I had no idea that I'd see you again and find out that you hated the same person as me. So… you pretty much the rest."
"Yep. We both rose to the top of the School, I put you as the manager of 'Project Maximum' and here we are now. Finally getting rid of that insignificant piece of shit!" she yelled hastily.
I smiled evilly. "Well, here we are," I said looked down at Maximum house," at the corner of payback and revenge."
"Lets do this sis," Brigid said while unbuckling her seat.
Watch out Maximum, because I'm coming for you, and this time there's no escape…
Mwahahah! I feel evil just writing this! Just kidding.
So, to clear up any confusion, yes the unknown girl is Brigid's sister. Her twin to be exact.
Also, I am holding Chapter 12 hostage until I get eight reviews. Come one people! I've gotten ten reviews on a chapter, so I know at least eight people are reading this. REVIEW!
Thanks!
XOXO- Carter (Yeah, new signature xD Tell me if you like it or not)
