RATING: PG 13
SUMMARY: Max finally find Jondy
The plane had landed at Melbourne Airport and the Qantas jet was moving into the gate. Max was relieved that she had gotten there in one piece. She had been plagued with guilt because she hadn't even told Logan where she was. She even thought she saw him walk down the aisle but she knew she was just seeing things.
As she sat waiting for the okay to get of the plane, Max thought about her relationship with Logan. She kept on telling herself that she has to think about Jondy but she just couldn't stop. The virus had really put a massive strain on their friendship let alone their relationship. Before the virus, Max and Logan would spent hours talking at night, playing chess, drinking wine, working on Eye's Only cases, eating Cale Culinary Miracles. The whole little universe that was theirs was gone and in its place was one of fear, want and loneliness.
"Would everyone please get your travellers bags and anything else you have with you and file out down the aisles. Welcome to Melbourne Australia. I hope you enjoy your stay!" The Hostess spoke over the loudspeaker and it was time to go. Max got up and reached for her bag.
"May I help you?" A man who sounded like Logan asked her.
"No it's okay, I got it" Max said without looking at the guy. Then Max turned around to look at the man. "Thankyou- Logan?" To Max's astonishment, Logan was on the flight standing beside her and was waiting for her. He had one of those 'I'm angry that you went behind my back' faces on and Max had seen it before.
"So, you decided that a holiday to Australia was what the doctor ordered?" Logan didn't sound very understanding in his tone, more upsettingly sarcastic.
"Logan, I can explain!" Max couldn't think of anything else to say.
"Well, of course you can. What else could you do? You couldn't come and ask say me for help, you just decided that it was a better option to go to the other side of the planet." The tone was still sarcastic.
Max knew she was in trouble.

At the Luggage Pick-up, Logan and Max stood side by side, although at least a metre was between them looking for their luggage. Max saw her luggage and grabbed it. The silence between them was defining even though the entire Airport was a buzz. Logan saw his luggage and grabbed his. Max started to walk away and bumped into a person trying to get away. Logan gave chase, with the luggage dragged with him.
"Max, we have to talk about this!" Max stopped and dropped her bag. She turned around.
"Logan, I said I'd explain." Logan was concerned about Max.
"Max, how did you get money to come here anyway, do you have accommodation, do you have a plan?" Logan knew at least one of those answers. Max had stolen something and profited substantially. The others were properly no.
"I think you know where I got money, I'll just stay at a backpackers hostel and yes I have a plan!"
"And what exactly do you intend to do. As far as we know, Jondy is okay. She is in University, she has a great place to live. She is quite fine from what I see." Jondy wasn't in any immediate danger as far as they knew.
"Logan, remember when I met you, I told you that I'd been spending my life searching for my family. Well, I'm still doing that. Jondy, Tinga, Zack and I were the closest of all of my family and I've got to at least tell her that Tinga died. I mean, she doesn't even know. I need to see her, I need my family." Max was trying to explain herself, but these were all facts Logan already knew.
"I thought I was your family too. Why didn't you tell me? I could have helped you out more. I know she didn't reply to the e-mail but, come on, maybe she doesn't want to be found!"
"Logan, I love you and you are my family, but I can't continue like this. It rips me apart even seeing you know I can't...can we not talk about this in public?" Max and Logan were sort of making a scene.
"Max, why didn't you tell me. I know things have been rough but I'd like to think you still trust me? Do you still trust me?" Logan could feel his insides become tight. Max was really getting to him.
"Logan, I trust you, but I need my space. In a way, I need time away. I need time away from everything." Logan really felt what she was saying.
"You need time from me?" Max was trembling. All Logan wanted to do was to hold her in his arms and tell her everything was all right. But of course, that could never happen. Damn Manticore.
"From the temptation. I can't do this. We need to get a Bus into Melbourne." Max was making sense, but Logan couldn't move. He understood exactly what she was saying but at the same time, they had bigger problems to deal with. They needed to get accommodation and find Jondy.
"Fine...We can buy a map. We'll get a bus and then we can go look for Jondy. I take it you have an idea of where to look. Do you have the address of her University?" Logan and Max needed to get down to business.
"Yeah. Lets go!" Max and Logan got hold of Luggage Trolleys and headed for the Bus area.
