Chapter 12

Ok. I updated. It's been a bit, but I updated. Ha-ha. I know this chapter is not as long as some of my others, but I ran out of ideas… Anyway, read, review, and enjoy!

"That, dear Fang, is the scar from one of the failed attempts of the School to kill me." I said in an obnoxiously sweet voice, still feeling the affects of having fought off Nyx (I changed the spelling, you're not crazy ha-ha).

"And the two huge scars on your arms, what are those from?" Fang asked, almost accusingly. I shifted uncomfortably. How does one go about telling your family that you attempted to commit suicide, and on numerous occasions?

I didn't have long to deliberate, because Angel and Edward both gasped, and I realized that I had dropped my mental shield by mistake.

"Max! What were you thinking?" Angel shrieked at me, leaving the rest of the flock clueless.

I was instantly on my feet, reacting instinctively to her accusatory tone. "I was thinking that I was unwanted, and maybe I could screw the School over if I was dead!" I shouted back, instantly pissed.

Everyone was quiet as my words sunk in. Sam wrapped an arm around me and pulled me down next to him, tucking me into his side as if to protect me from everything.

I looked back at my food, and took an angry bite of hamburger. No matter what everyone thought, I was still hungry. I made it through a whole burger before anyone got the balls to ask me anything.

"How many times?" Carlisle asked quietly.

"I attempted suicide three different times, and the School killed me four times." I said, looking at my plate and nowhere else.

"Don't you mean attempted to kill?" Sam asked gently, concerned and getting angry.

"No, the school has actually killed me four different times. They brought me back each time so that they could continue to run experiments and tests on me. They could not just leave me dead, and leave me alone." I said quietly, a tear slipping out at all the remembered pain that I went through at the School's hands.

No one knew what to say to that and just sat around me awkwardly.

"Is that bitch still here?" The girl that threw the knife at me asked, walking back into the kitchen.

"Yes, I am, but you won't be if you call me a bitch one more time." I growled out, glaring at her.

"Meghan, I suggest you not mess with Max. She's stronger than you, a lot stronger. I don't want you to get hurt." Fang said cautiously.

I instantly realized that Meghan was Fang's girlfriend, and must have thought I was here to take him from her.

"Meghan, I'm not going to take Fang from you, if that's what you are so concerned about." I said to her, trying hard not to roll my eyes.

"Max, how strong are you?" Jasper asked me, turning my attention away from Fang's girlfriend.

"Strong enough to take out members of the Volturi guard." I said, grinning wickedly.

He grinned back, "Care to prove it?"

I threw my head back and laughed. "How about I go get my things from my house, let me bomb the house so it will through everyone and Forks won't wonder why I disappeared on my first day, and then I'll fight you Jasper." I said with a grin.

"You're going to bomb your house Max?" Iggy asked.

"Yeah, wanna come with?" I asked knowing that him and the Gasman were extremely excited to see the bombs that I made.

"Yes!"
