Max's POV
The flock and I were a few miles away from our house, when we saw this black smoke in the air. We heard the blaring sounds of sirens, and we saw the flashing lights of emergency vehicles. We decided to land a good distance away from our house, so no one would see us. Once we landed I took Willow from Fang, and held her in my arms. Walking up to our house we could see multiple police cars, fire trucks, and ambulances. As we got really close, a police man stopped us.
"I'm sorry, but this is a crime scene you cannot be here."
"A crime scene? This is our house. What happened officer?"
"Oh, I am sorry ma'am. But, it looks like a case of arson. Do you know of anyone that would want to hurt you?"
"No officer, I do not."
"Well, it looks like there is nothing left of your house it is only ashes now. Is there a place that you can stay?"
"Yes, we have family not that far away."
"I noticed that you did not have a car, do you need a ride?"
" No, we will be fine. Thank you for your concern."
I handed Willow back to Fang, and turned toward the flock.
"Ok, so it is obvious that Max II burned down our house. We need a place to stay TEMPORARILY, while we find a new place to live. We are going to my mother's house for the time being, but we need to find a home as soon as possible because we are not going to over stay our welcome. You got it?"
I got nods from everyone. "Ok, let's go because it is already starting to get late and I don't want to show up at her house in the middle of the night." We all jumped up in the air and snapped out our wings, and took off to my mom's house.
Max II's POV
I landed at the island to see that the facility was in chaos. I spotted Dr. Sarah, yelling into a walkie-talkie telling someone that subject #1 has escaped with subject #0. I walked up next to her, so I could report in.
"Doctor, I am here to report in." She greeted me with a hard slap to the face.
"You have some nerve showing up here, if you did not already know your mission has failed. Give me one reason, why you should not be expired right now."
"Well first off, it is not my fault that the mission failed. I followed my instructions by the letter, I did nothing wrong. But I may be able to help you get back subject #1."
"Ok, I will take into consideration the statement that you did nothing wrong. But you did spike my interest, with you helping me get back subject #1. Now you better start explaining, how you plan on 'helping' me get back subject #1."
"Alright, so when I left the flock's house I burnt it to the ground. That means that they will need a place to stay. And since I know how Max thinks, she will head straight to her mother's house. That is where you will find her, and capture her."
"I cannot use this information, unless you know where her mother lives."
"I do know where she lives, when I was pretending to be Max they took me straight to her house. May I ask doctor, who is subject #0?"
"What are you talking about?"
"I heard you say that subject #1 escaped with subject #0. Who is subject #0?"
"Alright, you will probably hear it eventually. So you may as well hear it from me, subject #0 is the offspring of subject #1. Our main objective now is to capture all the subjects #0-6, expire #1-6 and do multiple tests on subject #0 to learn all about it."
"Max has a child?"
"Yes, and it is our duty to capture it, and test it, and learn about it, then expire it. Agent if you have a problem with that, then you can be expired now."
"No, I have no problem."
"Good. Now tell me where the mother lives."
Max's POV
When we showed up at my mom's house she was surprised. But after I explained what happened to me, and then explaining that Max II burned down our house she was more than happy to let us stay with her for a little while. She also was over joyed when she got to meet her beautiful granddaughter. She was now sitting in the kitchen holding a sleeping Willow in her arms. "Mom, thank you for letting us stay here. I promise it will only be for a few days."
"Don't worry about it sweetie, I love having you here. I missed most of your life, I don't want to miss out on my granddaughter's life. I want you to stay for as long as you want."
"Mom, I would but we can't. It will start to feel crowded with seven extra people here, plus I am sure that the whitecoats will be searching for us very soon. So we cannot stay here for more than a few days, and I do not want to put my mother and sister in danger."
"Ok, I understand. You need to do what is best for you and the rest of your family. What exactly is your plan?"
"I plan on us moving from place to place, only staying in one place for a few days. Until months pass or even a year, until we know that it is safe and the whitecoats are no longer hunting us. Once we know it is safe, we will settle down in one spot."
"That sounds like a good plan. Ok, but now that you have my beautiful baby granddaughter you better promise to visit me and your sister."
"That is a promise. Mom, I do have a question."
"What is it sweetie?"
"Do you still have some of Ella's old baby clothes? We have nothing for Willow to wear, and she is still in this dirty jacket of mine."
"Oh, of course let me go get some of them. And you can take them with you when you leave. How about we get Willow out of that jacket, and give her a bath and put her in some clean baby clothes and put her down to bed?"
"Mom, that sounds perfect."
My mom took Willow and gave her a bath, and put her right to bed. I went into the living room and sat on the couch next to Fang. "Aside from everything that has happened, I am glad that my family is all here together."
"Me too. I am glad that I finally have you back Max. I have missed you so much, and now we have this incredibly gorgeous daughter. I love you and our family."
"I love you too." I leaned in and kissed Fang.
"But Fang, we need to leave here in a few days. We have to protect our family."
"I know. And we will leave, whenever you want just say the word and we are gone."
"Hmmm, I love you so much." I kissed Fang again.
"I love you too. We have been through so much today, how about we go lay down and get some sleep." He stood up and grabbed my hand, and led me to a spare room. Where we layed down and fell asleep.
I woke up in the middle of the night with a start. I had a horrible nightmare, about the time that I was in the facility on the island. I decided to go to the kitchen to get me a glass of water, thinking maybe it would help me get back to sleep. I took the water, and headed to Willow's room to check on my sleeping baby. I got to Willow's room and dropped the glass of water on the floor, I was stunned.
"Where is Willow?"
A/N: Sorry this update took so long. This story will be ending very shortly, with either an epilogue and that is it or another chapter then a sequel. I am still thinking about what I would like to do. Anyways I do not own Maximum Ride, Max belongs to the very talented Mr. James Patterson. But I do own this plot. Thanks for Reading ~ Tha Kidd11
