A/N: I DON'T REALLY LIKE THIS CHAPTER BUT IF YOU GUYS HAVE ANY SUGESTIONS
ON HOW TO GO ON WITH THE NEXT ONE FEEL FREE TO SAY SO. DON'T "IM" ME
THOUGH.
Max wanted to blame Manticore for all her u happiness but this time it was her fault. Alec was right. She did use him. More than once. First to get Logan to back off because of that virus that could kill him. Second, to make the loneliness go away. Why she kept coming back after that, she didn't know.
Maybe it was the feeling of safety and security that Alec gave her. The world felt alright when she was with him. She cared about him despite what he may think. He was Alec, her obnoxious self-centered, egotistical soldier boy with the habit of surprising her with his random acts of kindness.
As soon as she gets backs to Seattle she would tell him about the news. Whether it was good or bad was up to Alec to decide. She had told OC that she'd be gone for a week, maybe two. Maybe she was going to see Jace and her baby down in Mexico or track Zane down and get reacquainted with her brother.
Max smiled at the thought of seeing her siblings again. God, she missed them. They've been through so much together. She hoped they were safe and happy. They deserved that at least. A little piece of happiness. Whoever she found she was going to tell them that she was going to have a baby. A nice healthy, happy baby free from Manticore and the life they've all had as a child.
Max's thoughts were interrupted by the sudden feeling of dread and terror that crept over her. She was being tailed. She turned her head to see who it was. Two army trucks were right behind her.
"Shit! Shit!" She said. She assumed it was White or Manticore soldiers. She saw sector police up ahead but when she enhanced her vision she saw two more trucks waiting, parked right in her way.
Max thought of every escape tactic she could use. Escape and evade. That was what she was good at. She saw the woods and turned her bike towards that direction. She'd have to ditch her ninja somewhere. Max decided she'd go back for it later. She started on foot this time, running as fast as she could. She could hear soldiers behind her. They were keeping up.
As fast as she was, the new X's were right behind her. Soon, she was surrounded. She fought as hard as she could but there were too many and her body was growing tired. The baby. That was her priority. She wouldn't go back. When she and her siblings escaped, they had sworn that they would rather die than go back to Manticore and relive the horror. This baby was one more reason not to go back there.
Suddenly a jolt of electricity shot through her back and Max's body convulsed. She fell on her knees. "No," She moaned trying to get back up. Another jolt shot through her and this time she fell, her eyes blinking back the tears before everything went black.
