A/n okay I know its been a long wait and you've been in deadly anticipation of this update. I also made it longer seeing as my chapters have seemed to be getting shorter and shorter lately, so enjoy. And I got one more thing to say. "GET 'EM MAX!!" Pheew glad I got that out of my system. Now where were we…….

Chapter37

I ran down the hall with my not so dead sister by my side. It felt great to be fighting for freedom with her. Last time I was just a child and she tried to protect me but now I was older and stronger and could fight with her.

Our feet pounded rhythmically against the white linoleum floor. I was shocked to find that everything was so, so, what's the word? Oh yeah, white! My breathing was evenly spaced but compared to Sky, hers was a rapid intake and exhale. I was slightly worried about her. She caught me sneaking glances at her and grinned in encouragement. She wasn't perfectly okay, but she could last.

I was entirely focused in my mind, with my newly mental ability I was reaching out ahead with my mind. We were nearly to the barricaded door, behind which my flock was waiting for us. We rounded a corner to fin eight Wing Beaters tearing at the door, including Lash. Oh, I would enjoy this very much.

"Hey check this out." I nudged Sky and motioned to the Wing Beaters. She watched fascinated as with a flick of two fingers, the metal doors and flooring ripped up and flew at the Wing Beaters. Ah sweet victory! I was murderously pleased when the full side of a metal door connected with Lash's face as he looked up, taking him down the end of the hall with the other Wing Beaters.

I stood there for four minutes straight grinning at my deadly piece of art (pun intended), Sky was laughing herself silly, nearly peeing her pants. The door cracked open slightly and Anthony stuck his head out. He glanced at me, down the hall, then back at me.

"You are one evil little girl." He stated then he continued in a casual voice, "oh, hi Sky." Almost as though we hadn't thought her dead for years. Though it didn't matter cause Anthony got ploughed down by Chase who ran out the room, practically vaulting over his head. Chase ran up to us and pulled Sky into a tight hug, he had tears in his eyes as he pulled me into the hug. He clutched us tightly with out hurting us murmuring, "your safe, your alive, I have you all back."

I pulled away back from him and hugged my flock, I pushed Fang away when he tried to sneak a kiss.

"Great reunion over now lets get moving, before we get caught, AGAIN!" I was getting anxious as I snapped out my orders. Something wasn't right, and I know that sounds like a cheesy, corny film line. But it's the truth, I felt like there was something terrible that was going to happen and ruin my happy bubble. I had a sneaky suspicion that whatever it was it would happen to Sky. That was all the more reason I needed to get her out of there,

I led them all through the endless white corridors, it was like a bloody maze. If u turned one corridor you were guaranteed the next on would look the same. We had to stop a couple time to kick some baddy ass. Which we were gladly enjoying. We even found an emergency exit map in one of the same corridors. Needless to say that made our escaping a whole lot easier.

Everyone was starting to get tired when we found the fire exit on the thirteenth floor. I tried to open it but it was locked, I tried to use my funky new abilities and all I got was a electric, sizzling in my mind. Somehow the white coats had managed to secure it. Crafty little buggers weren't they.

I stormed down one of the corridors passing over either dead or unconscious bodies. I randomly leaned against a door and tried to think.

Fate it seemed was helping me today because as I leaned on the door, it swung open and landed me on my bum. But that was fates way of showing me business plush conference room, where one wall was made up of nothing but windows. Yippee!!!

"Oh goody!" I was practically beaming at my good fortune as the others ran over to me in the room. Angel was practically in stitches cause my mind was being so random. Hey how do you think I survived this hell hole in the first place? I took every random thing as a good sign and decided that the white coats could stick it. You try it, it works wonders if you're a mutant being held by made scientists.

We walked into the room and I looked for something to break the window. Then a thought came to me, new freaky powers….. Hello?!

"Right when we get out, Gazzy and Iggy I want you two to detonate that bomb you put together for me."

Iggy and the Gasman shared a nervous glance, if that's even possible, that is. "What is it?" I asked as Gazzy rubbed his hand on his trousers and Iggy fiddled with the bulge in his jacket, which I was hoping was the detonator.

"There was some problems….Max." Gazzy started, as he hesitated Iggy carried on for him.

"We ran out of parts and the best we could do with so little equipment is make the bomb with a limited timer. If we put it on the roof it'll have a strong enough blast to knock off the first couple floors and bring everything else down too."

This seemed harmless enough but even I could see the problem with this. If the blast was as strong as they said it was and with a limited timer, whoever put the bomb up there might not be able to get away in time.

My brain started ticking away in that amazing way it has. Fang and Chase knowing me the way they did both said "NO!" at the same time as the idea came to me.

I looked at them innocently and smiled.

I tried to reason with them. "I'm the most logical choice. I can use my mind to get it halfway and I can use my super speed to get out of range before the blast. It'll be a cinch. Then we can all go home and me and Anthony'll make tea."

"When we survive this we don't want to die from your cooking." Gazzy muttered.

I grinned at him and tapped his shoulder with my fist. "I've got better over the months so don't worry."

Before my brother and boyfriend, or anyone else for that matter could protest, I walked to the window. "People stand back so you don't get hit by flying furniture" I commanded as I flung my arms out.

I concentrated on everything in the room, felt the weight of it all press down on me as it lifted up off the floor. I thought of the force I needed and remembered watching the force of thing crashing, like lorries. With that thought in my mind I threw everything that was levitating at the window. There was an ear-splitting smash and tinkle as glass fell lightly to the floor.

"Beautiful." I whispered as I leaned into the open window and felt the wind pull at my hair and feathers.

The wind was an open invitation calling my name, it was washing away all of the degradation I had felt. I wasn't fooling myself when I knew I had a bad back with spinal damage, or that Sky was peachy keen when she wasn't. But the sky was open for us, we had the ability to soar into it and never end. That was our freedom, the one good sole thing that had come from the scientists giving us wings.

I looked across to find Sky leaning into the air like me, her beautiful burgundy wings spreading slowly, the feathers rustling as though the wind was pulling her.

She saw me watching her and a huge grin lit up our faces. "It's been so long." She murmured.

Before fate decided to stop helping us I went to Gazzy and Iggy to find out how the bomb worked. When they had filled me in we all took the skies. Anthony was holding Total because he was getting tired and Chase hovered by Sky. We flew A couple hundred feet up and away. When they were at a safe distance I swooped down angling my wings. I kept my eyes on the roof and my fingers fiddled with the buttons. The max time I could have was two minutes forty five. So as I dived at my mid point I hit the count down and through the bomb with the force of my mind onto the roof, quickly turning around and speeding away to join my flock.

I began to count down in my head. 1 min 22 seconds I was at when Angel's voice popped into my head. Max, Cara is by the docks and wants to know which building we're at.

She'll know soon enough Ange.

I was on 1 minute when the bomb went off earlier. Letting Cara know which building was the bad one and shocking me as I waited for something bad to happen.

A/N again I apologise for the wait. My life is hectic right about now. Soz. So tell me what you think. I am trying to update quicker, and soon, too soon this story shall end. *starts sobbing* But review and tell me what you think.

Love you all :D
