I Do Not Own Maximum Ride! James Patterson Does…

But Hush Puppy Is Mine


Hush Puppy's POV

After being scared half to death and causing berries to fly everywhere, I decided not to try and get up.

Max went to help me but stepped on some strawberries and slipped on them as their juices covered the floor. She literally made berries jam with her back.

Some of the berry juice unfortunately squirted into Gazzy's eyes. He became frantic and ran around making everyone except Fang who had smartly backed out of the room, onto the floor adding to the slippery, muddy, and jam filled mess.

I heard him say something like "Now I know how Iggy feels" before he tripped over Iggy himself.

"Ow, See being blind isn't as easy as it looks" Iggy said as he was lying on his stomach.

I couldn't help it but I laughed, then Angel was next, and so on, and so forth. Even Fang made a little chuckle.

Everyone went to clean up. The whole flock and I got hosed down my Max, She said that there was no time to take a real bath. I wonder what she meant.

I guess it was a top priority to clean the kitchen so nobody would slip and hurt themselves…again.

I started to clean up the food on the table, it was a total mess. As I was cleaning I noticed they had made a cake. Its message was destroyed by the berry bombardment; but I could make out two words…

"Hush" and "Hang"

I didn't under stand what it meant, but before I could get a closer look; Nudge dragged me out for a "little" long chat…

Max's POV

"Well that went according to plan" Said Fang sarcastically while him and I was in the kitchen alone for the moment.

"I didn't expect for her to freak out like that" I replied as I moped up the berry juice as well as I could. I didn't realize we owned a mop till Angel pointed it out. We don't really clean the house that much. We were raised to be lean and mean, not tidy and clean.

Fang rolled is eyes and went to change out the contents of the bucket.

I sighed; Hush Puppy's surprise party had been a failure. Now all is left is the actual surprise….

I'm just hoping that nothing would go wrong this time…

Hush Puppy's POV

I woke up to darkness… My eyes were open but I couldn't see anything. Then when I tried to pull of the blind fold I realized somebody was dragging me.

I panicked and tried to punch my way out of my mystery kidnapper's arms.

"Ow!" I head her yell.

'Eh? Nudge?'

"Well there goes that plan…" Said Max

'What plan?' I managed to sign.

She sighed and took off the blindfolded reveling that we were by the side of the house.

"Sorry nudge got impatient and couldn't wait any longer…"

"Not just Nudge" Iggy said scratching his hair.

I looked around to see everyone look away for a second. I was confused.

Angel turned to me and took my hand "let me show you" She put me in front of a large tree.

'What? A tree?' I thought as I looked at it.

She shook her head no and put my hand on a ledge. Wait… Trees don't have ledges.

On closer inspection in was a small plank of wood painted to look just like the tree.

'Painted wood?' I looked up and noticed a line of these painted planks. 'No... It's… a ladder?' I tilted my head to the side wondering where they lead.

I looked at the others from the corner of my eye; I could tell they were really anxious.

Angel smiled and nodded "go ahead."

I looked to Angel, the others and back to the plank ladder.

'I guess there's only one way to go…' I thought as I started to climb up the ladder.

'Up.'


Hehehe yet another cliffy!
