Max's

"I cant believe they did that to Joshua," Max said crying into Alec's arms.

Logan shrugged. "I'm sorry,Max."

"It's not your fault." Max said.

"That was wrong." Original Cindy said.

"What are we going to do?" Alec asked.

"I don't know." Max said. "Things are getting terrible out there."

"We need to stop White." Logan said. "My informant said they're the ones leaking information to the media."

"Well," Max said looking to Alec, then to Logan, and finally to Original Cindy and she stiffened. "We're going to take them down no matter what."

Max," Logan said taking Max into his arms. He cherished the moment til she broke away from him.

Then Asha entered as if on cue. "Hey,"

Alec noticed that she wasn't happy. "You ok?"

"I saw the news," Asha answered. "I'm sorry Max."

Max looked at her and saw the sympathy in her eyes. "Thanks."

"Logan," Asha said quickly turning to him.

"Yeah?"

"Your uncle called." Asha said. "Christoper I think his name was."

"Uncle Chris," Logan said. "I haven't heard from him in awhile."

"He said call him when you get in." Asha said.

"Ok," Logan answered.

Max moved to the window ceiling. She looked out of it. "Joshua," Original Cindy walked over to her and said, "He's in a better place."

"I have to go." Max said leaving.

"You look like you need rest." Alec said. "Your not even supposed to be out of the house."

"I know." Asha said, "I had to see how Max was."

"How nice." Alec said.

Terminal City

"I cant believe it!" Mole shouted.

"I know." Boobie said.

A group or transgenics gathered around.

"Tomorrow is his memorial." Boobie announced.

"That's sweet of you." Max said, entering the group.

"He didn't get a chance to reach you did he?" Boobie asked.

"No," Max said. "What was he doing out there anyway?"

"There are humans out there taking pictures as you can see." Mole said.

"I know, I saw them."

"We wanted to notify you." Boobie said, "And he knew where you lived."

Max nodded. "You guys have to be careful."

"We will." Boobie said. "Are you coming tomorrow."

"For the memorial? I wouldn't miss it for the world."


Logan's-Formerly Alec's

"Yeah,": Logan said into the phone. "We'll be there. I promise."

Logan hung up the phone.

"What was all that about?" Asha asked.

"Family pinic." Logan said. "Dammit."

"What?"

"Its tomorrow and they expect us to come." Logan said in frustration. "They always tell me things last."

"It's ok" Asha said, "So they know about me?"

"Yes," Logan said. "But they think we're engaged. Because they would look down on me even harder than they do now if they knew it was a mistake."

Asha touched her stomach. "Mistake?"

"I'm sorry." Logan said noticing how upset Asha was about to get. "You know what I mean."

"So we go and eat." Asha said, "Cool."

Logan smiled at her.

"Poor Max." Asha said, "I cant believe Joshua."

"I know." Logan said.

His cell phone rang.

"Hello," He answered.

"Hey," Max said.

"What's up?" Logan asked.

"Terminal City, they're having a memorial for Joshua tomorrow." Max said, "Can you and Asha come?"

"Tomorrow." Logan said. "What time?"

"I don't know." Max said, "Why?"

"Because I have a family thing tomorrow and me and Asha are going." Logan said.

Max was silent for a moment. "You know what, that's ok. You do your thing and Me, Alec and OC'll go."

"Max, we would love to be there." Logan said.

"That's ok," Max said. "Our kind needs to stick together."

The line went dead.

Cale family picnic

"She's a beauty," Aunt Racheal said.

"Thanks," Logan said.

"When are you two tieing the knot?" She asked.

"Before or after the baby is born." Asha said. "I want it to be before."

Christopher joined the conversation. "Logan, my boy. After Jonas died I wanted the family to get together again. But I didn't see you at the funeral."

"Me and Jonas kinda had a falling outs of sorts." Logan said.

"Anyways, I have a surprise for you and the lady." He pulled an envelope out of his pocket. "Here."

"Two plane tickets to New york." Logan said.

"Your grandmother is on her death bed and in her will she wanted you and your wife to have the house." Christopher said, "So shes blowing all her money on a small wedding ceremony for you two."

Logan looked to Asha, whom had a smile on her face.

"You were always her favorite." Racheal added.

"So come back with us tonight and since you two are planning on getting married. It's free." Christopher said.

"But..." Logan muttered.

"You can move back there." Rachael said. "Live in her house."

"Sorry to refuse the offer, but right now I'm in some important dealings." Logan said.

"They can wait." Christopher said, "Do it for your grandmother."

"We'll go." Asha said.

"Good."

Max's

"I'll call Normal and let him know we have to go to a funeral." Original Cindy said.

"Thanks," Max said.

"Logan cant make it?" Alec asked.

"No," Max said getting ready. She was dressed in black. dress pants and a tight black shirt.

"Max, its ok." Alec said.

Logan knocked on the front door. He and Asha entered with suitcases.

"Where are you two going?" Max asked.

"We're getting married in New york." Logan said.

Max's face just lost all color. "Excuse me?"

"I told my family me and Asha are engaged and my grandmothers dieing and blowing her money on a wedding for me and Asha." Logan said.

"Whatever." Max said. "Congratulations."

"Max," Logan said. "It isn't real."

"Logan," Max said. "I don't care what you do."

Logan turned and headed for the door. "I just thought you needed my help here."

"Well," Max said, "We don't."

"They offered me a house back in New york." Logan said trying to get some emotion from Max. "Maybe I should take it."

"Sounds like a good offer." Max said, "You know good offers don't come that good in the broken world. Take it."

"What time does your plane leave?" Alec asked.

"7:30" Logan said.

"Two hours." Asha noted.

"Oh," Max said. "Bye,"

Alec hugged Asha and said, "Be careful. And don't have that baby while your there."

She smiled and said, "Ok."

"How long are you guys going to be there?" Original Cindy asked.

"A few weeks." Logan said, "At the most."

"See ya'll." Original Cindy said.

They exited as Logan shut the door he gazed at Max and she shrugged and turned away.

"Let's go," Max said.

Terminal City

"Me and Dogboy we're real cool." Original Cindy said. "He was so sweet and adorable and he stayed true to himself and his feelings. He wanted to be out there with humans. And that's were he died. Out there by the very people he wanted to be with."

She stepped down from the crates that were lined up as a stage.

"Max," Boobie said nudging her. "Say something."


"He was a good man," Max spoke to the crowd. "Or part man."

Original Cindy smiled.

"But whoever came across Joshua would have loved him." Max said. "He had that about him. That feeling to protect him. He will always be remembered."

She started to cry.

Alec hugged her.

"Well, here is something to behold." Mole said, "Joshua was building this."

He went to the tallest lamppost and pulled a string and arose was a flag. Black, red and white. "He said he was making us a flag. This is us."

Max smiled.

"Guys listen up!" A transgenic yelled turning up the volume of an TV. Max caught glimpse.

"This is eyes only and this is for an innocent man whom was killed. Joshua wasn't like any man. He was a good man. He was a transgenic who was killed. And I just wanted to let you all know don't fear what you don't know. Because on the outside he might have looked scary to some but Joshua had the biggest heart out there.. Joshua, we'll miss you Big fella. Peace. Out."

Max cried and smiled yet at the same time. "That was great of Logan to do."

"Your just letting your man get away." Original Cindy said.

"We cant be together." Max said.

"Fuck that." Original Cindy said. "Go get your man."

Max smiled then raced for her bike. She hoped she'd make it in time. Lined up agaisnt the gates were trashcans set aflame. She revved up her bike and hopped over the gate.

Airport

"Now boarding flight 604." The voice on the intercom announced.

"That's us." Logan said.

They headed out.

Asha and Logan were heading up the steps when they heard aloud roaring.

"Logan!" Max yelled.

He smiled.

He rushed down the steps.


"Sir, we're leaving in a minute."

Max jumped off her bike and it skidded across the runway. She ran to him and looked him in his eyes and hugged him. "Logan,"

"Max,"

"I love you."

"I love you, too."

Max looked into his eyes. "Don't leave."

"I was waiting for you to say that." Logan said.

"You didn't want to go?" Max asked.

"No," Logan said, "But there wasn't no reason to stay."

"Stay, join the fight." Max said.

"I will." Logan said.

"For Joshua." Max said.

"For Joshua," Logan said. "And for you."

"I saw that eyes only thing." Max said, "That was so sweet. I knew I had to come and get you."

"So we're staying?" Asha asked.

"Yeah," Logan said. "We're staying and joining the struggle."
