Dear Logan and Bling,
    Wear your arsinele to work on Monday.  Have Bling stay in the kitchen that night too.  Bling, after the first shot is heard, punch me into the couch, then close all the curtains in the house. 
-Max

    "What do you think this means?" Logan asked Krit, Syl, Original Cindy, and Bling at his house Monday morning.  After the death of Max, they all decided to stay in the same city to help each other through the tough time dealing with her death.  After Logan had gotten the email, he had called all of the people close to Max together to discuss it.
    "Logan, you know this could be a trap.  I mean, there's no telling what kind of drugs they pumped into her for the past two weeks she was there.  She is probably reprogrammed, or something," Original Cindy replied.
    "I'm with Original Cindy, Logan," Syl said as they all murmured in agreement.
    "But we can't do anything, but trust right now, I mean, if it is or not, there's nothing we can do, right?" Logan said weakly.
    "Logan, you're right, I mean we can't beat her up on the spot what if it isn't a trap?  But, Syl and I should be in the kitchen too, just in case," Krit replied. 
   
    That night, a knock was heard in Logan's penthouse.  Logan opened the door to find Max standing there with a weak smile on her face.  Besides a couple bruises here and there, she looked fine, except for the haunted look on her face.  Logan smiled wide, Max is really alive. He leaned in to kiss her, to make sure it was her, but she hugged him instead, and he pulled her inside.  They broke the hug and walked into the living room.
    "Sit down," Logan demanded.  Max complied. 
    "How did…, I mean how did you escape?"  Logan stammered.
    "I didn't," Max replied frankly.  "It's not as bad as I thought it was, its ok now I guess.  I was just coming to catch up, but first, I need to ask you a question," Max continued.  "Would you be willing to come and work for Manticore, it's not that bad, really."  Logan looked at Max, she would not look at him, it seemed as if she was trying to keep her temper as she talked about Manticore.  She was lying.  She got up and began to pace the room.
    "No, Max, you of all people should know that, I would never," Logan replied.
    "Would you be willing to bet your life on that?"  Max asked with a quiver in her voice.
    "Yes, of course," Logan replied.  Max turned around.
    "Well, I'm sorry to hear that," Max said softly as she turned around with a gun in her hand, and pulled the trigger.
    Bling was in the kitchen when he heard the shot.  He, Syl, Krit, and Original Cindy listened as Max talked to Logan.  She sounded strained.  Bling got up and went into the living room.  He saw Logan, down on the floor with Max standing in front of him, gun still in her hand.  He went up to her and swiftly punched her.  He then proceeded to close all the curtains in the house.  He then went into the kitchen, and brought them into the living room.  As they walked in, Max grabbed a knife from her pocket.  They all stepped back, staring at the knife in her hand.  Ignoring their actions, Max proceeded to cut a hole in her head with her eyes closed.  Logan then grunted and sat up, apparently unhurt.
    "Max…" Logan began.
    "Get the hell away from me!"  Max yelled.  Logan shut up, surprised at her crazy behavior.  Max pulled something out of her head, it looked like a tracking device.  She crushed it between her bare fingers. 
    "Sorry about that, I had to do a bit of acting before that thing was destroyed, it replays everything I see and hear to the base in Seattle.  A man is also doing some recon to make sure I don't do something stupid." Max explained.
    "What the hell is going on Max?  Are you on their side or ours?  What's the plan?  Why are you alive?  You have a lot of explaining to do!"  Syl yelled.  Max looked up, surprised to see Syl there.
    "Oh good, you two are here.  That makes things a bit easier.  I will explain how I am living now, once all the remaining X5's are here.  I have a plan to bring down Manticore once and for all.  I want to bring it down, the only person I am doublecrossing is Manticore," Max stared at them all with such a fierce determination that no one had a doubt in their minds about her loyalty.
    "Glad to have you back, Maxie," Syl hugged her, and all the others did the same.  When Max go to Logan, they looked at each other.
    "I'm so sorry about that, I…," Max began.
    "Don't worry about it, you had to do what you had to do," Logan cut in.  They leaned in for a kiss.
    "Ok, then, lets get all the other X5's," Syl gathered up all the others and left, leaving Max and Logan alone.
    "Oh god, I missed you Max," Logan pulled her in for a hug.  Max returned the hug, wholeheartedly.  He buried his nose deep in her sweet smelling hair.
    "You have no idea," Max replied.
    "I think I do, I thought you were dead."  At this Max said nothing.
    "I am so tired, would you mind if I took a nap?"
    "Not at all."
