~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@~@
Max and OC where putting their things away when the sound of a beeper went. Off Max searched for hers. "It's mine," OC said checking who it was. "Hoping it was Logan?"
Max chuckled. "Nah, just checking incase something was up. Ya never know when there's a Transgenic out there getting them self in trouble. What happened last week was hard enough. Don't want anything like that happening again,"
"How is doggy-dog anyway? Still upset over that girl?"
"Yeah, she meant a lot to him, I could sort of relate to how he feels. I've had people I care about die." Max thought back to when she killed Ben, seeing Tinga in the Tank, watching Eva die on the field, and watching Jack be dragged off in the night. "It hurts!"
Alec walked up to where OC and Max were talking and pulled her tightly into him. "Hey Maxie," Alec said kissing her. "Mmm..." Max smiled but some Normal interrupted them. They turned around to see what was going on. Normal held up a gun and it was pointed to one of the Jam Pony Messengers, Sky.
"GET DOWN YOU MUTANT BASTRUD"
"Mutant are crazy?" Sky asked looking really confused at what was going on.
"YOU GOT THREE SECONDS, DOWN!" Normal yelled even harder. He was getting ready to pull the trigger when Sky was getting on his knees with his hands on his head. Max got worried. She knew Sky wasn't a Transgenic he was working there way too long and if he was Sky would hide his barcode better. Not thinking to rushed to Normal twisting his arm while getting the gun out of his hand. She them elbowed him against the wall. "HEY!"
"What the hell are you doing?" Max asked taking the all the bullets out of the gun. "HE'S ONE OF THEM! HE'S GOT A BARCODE!" Normal tried to point out. Sky rubbed the back of his neck confused and found black ink on his hand. Normal rushed over too check and found out someone had stamped the barcode on him. "Oh well he could have been one of the! Anyone could be! Let that be a lesson to all of you, vigilance! You wash your neck! You two in my office now!"
Sky rushed to the washroom and two of the messengers had fake confused faces as the walked into Normal's Office. Everyone remained silent until Alec broke it.
"Ok, Crash anyone huh? I'm buying! Sky?" Alec said kissing Max before heading out with.
"You coming?" OC asked hopeful.
"No" Max tossed the gun back to Normal. "Maybe in a little while,"
OC watched Max leave knowing she was heading for the Space Needle to think. "Girls got quite an arm in her," Normal said watching Max go. But he didn't know she heard her, which just made Max pick up her pace. "Yes she does," Sketchy added.
"Yeah and what do you mean by that?" OC asked glaring at them. "Um nothing," "Mmm hmm."
~@~@~
Both Alec and Sketchy walked into Jam pony talking about some deal Alec pulled and got lots of money for. "Hey Boss," Sketchy greeted Normal waiting for a package.
"Did Max come in yet?" Alec asked looking around trying to find her in the crowd of people. "No and if you ask me that little transgenic lovin lady may not come back to work after today!" Normal warned with a smirk on his face.
"Oh come on! She's been going through a hard time lately. It's not her fault if she's late," Alec defended trying to avoid the transgenic part in it.
"That's not what I mean," Normal said grabbing a bike with a flat tire, putting it on a rack. "Oh common you don't really think she's one of them do you? I mean how long has Max been working here?"
"A few years Sketchy answered confused. "So what?"
"Yeah and that whole Manticore stuff happened maybe a year few months ago! Don't you think Max wouldn't be working here until then?" Alec pointed out trying his best to keep their minds off of the possibility.
"Yeah but you must have heard Eyes Only before. He said 12 of them escaped in '09. That could very well be Max," Sketchy pointed out ginning to himself.
"Yeah, right sketch. Think of it there's millions of people in the world and out of all the people you think one is Max?"
"Well you saw the way she muscled me," Normal said flexing his arm trying to get a knot out.
"Yeah she's been working out a lot come on guys!"
"Well I'll going to check for a barcode just incase man!"
"No these trannies are smart, could have found away to remove it some how,"
"Yeah, not having a barcode doesn't prove anything!"
"Oh come on guys it's like if she's a witch she'll float, if she's not she'll drown. Ether way she's guilty," Alec said grabbing a package. He headed out luckily Max came up on her bike as soon as he left. "Hold up! Hold up," Alec said causing her to stop. Making sure first that no one was looking he moved her hair away from her neck revealing part of her barcode. "What are you doing?" Max asked slightly worried. "Yeah that's what I thought. You need a little laser touch up," Alec warned. "Thanks for the tip," Max continued.
"No, no you can't go in there! Normal and Sketchy are all tripping over that little stunt you pulled yesterday. Max's jaw dropped. "Listen go to Joshua's old place and I'll meet you there later ok? Go, go," Alec watched Max ride down the street. He turned around to find an all to familiar face on a familiar bike. She looked like Max but Alec knew all to well it wasn't. He walked up to her catching her eye. "452"
"949" she greeted.
"I go by Alec now!" he answered.
"And I go by Sam. Now what do you want?" She asked taking her sunglasses off.
"I could ask you the same thing. What are you doing here?" Alec asked. "I'll looking for that little traitor 452. Seems that some Ames guy caught me thinking I was here. Took my family, now I won't get them back until I turn 452 into him!" This time Alec's jaw dropped. "Say you wouldn't happen to work here would you?" she asked getting off her bike. "Uh no sorry," Alec lied getting on his bicycle. "I'll see you around," He said before rushing off. He had to warn Max but first Alec had a to meet someone at crash.
"Thanks Cathy I appreciate this!" Alec said to a blonde in front of him. He put a piece of paper into his pocket. "No problem Alec. Anything for an old friend. You that breeding program at Manticore really suck," Cathy said folding her arms over her stomach. "Yeah, well good luck with it. Should be. interesting," he grinned then pulled her into a hug. "I will been thinking of staying at Terminal City. Probably safer there,"
"Yeah ok I'll see you then," He kissed her fore head then pulled apart.
What Alec didn't know though was Max had entered Crash hoping to have a nice cold beer and saw Alec. Not really even knowing what it had all meant Max ran out of Crash. Left soon after heading for Joshua's old place hoping that Max was still there to give her some good news. ~@~@~
OC came home to find Max packing up her things. "Boo what are ya doin?"
"Packing, leaving town," Max said simply. "What do you mean leaving town?" OC asked worried. White's on my ass 24/7, I can't go back to work, and Joshua, he doesn't need me anymore. And Logan's got Asha. Why am I staying here?" Max asked grabbing a tub of tooth past and her toothbrush.
"I'm here for one," OC suggested.
"Yeah and some day White and his men are going to come barging through that door and you liable to get caught in the cross fire. I mean it. I've stay too long. I need to go somewhere new, where nobody knows who I am and I don't have to worry about anybody but myself," Max answered zippering up her bag. "You think that's going to make you happy?" Max shrugged.
"What about Alec?" Max froze at the sound of his name. "Max what happened?" OC asked noticing Max stop. "I caught him at Crash with some blonde broad," Max replied gathering her stuff together. "That SOB."
"Hey. Whatever I'm going to be ok!" Max answered grabbing her sunglasses and putting them on. OC fallowed her downstairs with the Ninja.
"Before you go, there's something I want to say. You, Max Guevara, are my sister. You are my family," Max blinked back tears and hugged her. "I love you,"
"I love you too!" OC replied pulling apart. "Take care of yourself ok?"
"Yeah you too!" Max got on her bike and glanced back at OC for what could be a final goodbye.
Max started off down the road. Not being aware though, when OC turned around Sam fallowed close behind.
~@~@~
"MAX!" Alec called entering Joshua's old place. "Max where are you?" After Alec finished searching the house he found himself in front of her apartment. He was about to knock when OC opened the door shocked. "What da hell are you doin here? Wait a minute don't answer that," She then slammed the door in his face. "O.K" Alec mumbled confused. He dug into his pocket and found a bobby pin Max had left at his apartment. When he picked the lock and opened the door he found OC in a chair that faced the door looking at him.
"I knew you'd try that! Ya'll got no respect for a girls privacy!" OC snapped at him. "What ever, do you know where Max is? It's really important!"
"What ya here ta tell her but da blonde you've been seeing?" OC asked sarcastically.
"What are you- Oh my god she thinks that I was- No OC she's a friend of mine. Cathy we met back in Manticore, she's pregnant and she also did e a favor!" Alec said holding up the piece of paper he had earlier.
OC snatched the paper out of Alec's hand and looked at it. "Oh no." she looked up at Alec worried. "What?"
"She left 10 minutes ago. Said she was leaving Seattle for good. Alec you've got to stop her!"
