Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Dark Angel characters. Iris is mine.
It's my birthday today, so I was out with some friends we went to see a
movie. I had a lot of fun, I was a little mad in the morning when I was at
school. Cause some of my friends forgot it was my birthday! But they gave
me gifts an hour later.
Anyway, thanks for the reviews.

MAX AND OC'S PLACE
There was knocking on the door, the knocking had already been going on for 5 minutes.
"Hello? Max? Come on! Open up! I need to talk to you! If you don't open up soon, I'm gonna pick the lock and break in!"
No one answered, Max was somewhere with Alec and OC was still a work or at Crash.
Max and Alec were walking through the hallway, it was about 8 / 8:30 maybe. The knocking wouldn't stop.
"What is that sound?" Alec asked Max
"I don't know, sounds like someone's knocking or banging on a door." She replied
"Yeah, and that someone seems to be doing that on your door!"
She look at her door apartment, someone was indeed knocking/banging on her door.
"Hey! Easy on the door will ya, I'm here, you can stop now!" she yelled
The person knocking on her door looked over his shoulder, dropped his bag and stepped out of the shadow.
"Zack? Is that you?" she looked so surprised, Zack was the last person she expected to knock on her door.
"Hey Maxie!"
She ran over to him and hugged him. Alec walked over to them.
"Wait! You remember me?" she asked her brother
"It's okay Max, my memory started coming back bit by bit, I remembered I was from Manticore so I started searching and tracking down one of those Tech guys. Guess what, found one, he helped me out, got all the bad out of my head. I still remember what I did, but I won't do it again." Zack explained while they walked into Max's apartment
"Wow, that's great! So what are you doing here?"
"Came to see your baby sister? Check up on her?" Alec asked
"That too, hey Alec good to see you again, but I heard this rumor from a bunch of transgenics about some transgenic, who found her dead lover, 493, in Seattle. I remembered Alec so I decided to come over and see if you guys were okay."
"Yeah, we're fine." She answered
Zack sat down on the couch, while Max walked to the kitchen
"So it's just a rumor, the fact that someone is looking for Ben isn't true?" Zack asked
"Oh no, it's true, check this out!" Alec replied and sat down next to Zack to show him the album and the notebook.
"Jeez, intense! So this chick really thinks you're the love of her life?"
"It seem that way!"
"Yeah, her big brother is also in town, he decided to help his little sis out. He captured Alec and of course I had to bail him out!" Max shouted from the kitchen "you guys want coffee?"
"Yeah sure!" they both shouted back
Max brought over the coffee and put the cups on the table.
"Where did you get that bruise?" her brother asked
"Oh, Iris the chick that's after Alec, kept me busy while her brother took Alec away. I kicked her ass, and her brother's too!"
"Nice! I see you still have the touch."
Max and Alec looked at each other. Touch. They touched, back at Iris's place, they kissed. They both got a bit uncomfortable.
"Yeah well, once you get the taste." great, nice choice of words Max "of it..well you know how it is."
"Yes I do!" Zack replied
"I'm gonna make something to eat." And she walked back to the kitchen
"Did I say something?" he looked over at Alec
"Eh no," He knew exactly what was going on, it wasn't Zack who made her uncomfortable, it was him "I don't think so, guess it's this whole Ben thing, whatever. Anyway, can I ask you something?"
"Sure, shoot!"
"What's it like? Having a sister, a brother, a family? I had my own unit, but we were never that close, not the way you guys are."
"I don't know, it's like. when you're miles away from each other, you know that they're still there waiting to see you again. You know that there are people waiting for you, people who love you. And when you finally see them again, than you're happy, everything bad that's going on right then fades away. You try to keep alive, to be save so you can see them again. No matter where you are you know there's a place you can return to, a home with family, brothers and sisters. And you'll know you'll be save with them. You'll feel at home when you're around them."
Silence struck the room.
"Sounds great, I'm sorry I never had that. So how did you get so close with. your family?"
"I guess because we were in the same unit, we hung out everyday. It was just this togetherness or something, guess deep down we all knew we belonged together. That's why we gave each other names, we didn't wanna be a bunch of numbers."
The door opened. OC was home.
"Hey boo! You're back, so what happened?" OC asked
"I'll tell you later, we've got company." She pointed to the living room
"Zack? Hey!"
"OC! How've you been?" he stood up to hug her.
"I've been good. You?" she asked
"Me too, got my memory back, that's a plus." He said joking around
They laughed
"Dinner is served!" Max shouted from the kitchen.
They all came around the table and ate together, talking, laughing.
"This is what family is about." Zack said to Alec
He knew it, he felt save, loved, at home.
NEXT MORNING: JAM PONY
Logan was waiting at the entrance for Max.
Max arrived with OC and Zack. Alec was already there. They walked in when Max noticed Logan.
"You guys go ahead, I'll catch up." OC and Zack walked in and went over to Alec and talk.
"Hey."
"Hey."
"What are you doing here?" she asked him
"Came to see you, Alec called yesterday, he couldn't find you. He said you were upset."
"I was."
"Sorry if that was my fault." He replied
"That's okay."
"What's Zack doing here?"
"Came to see me and Alec, make sure we were okay, he heard a rumor on the streets. He's got his memory back to, so don't worry he won't try to kill you." She said
"Oh, that's good. Listen I'm sorry I couldn't find out anything about Iris."
"That's okay, me and Alec found out a lot about her."
"Yeah? Like what?" he asked
"She thinks Alec is Ben, she's totally obsessed with him. It's a long story, we took some stuff of hers with us, I'll fill you in later, I gotta go to work."
"Okay, see you later?"
"I guess" and she walked to the others.
"Yeah I know. Hahaha." Said Alec "hey Max." He saw she was a bit uncomfortable because of Logan. He also knew Max wanted to be straight with Logan, 'she's planning on telling him'
"Hey, what's so funny?"
"Oh, we were just talking about last night."
"Oh yeah, that was funny, hey have you seen Iris?" she asked
"No, did you kill her?"
"No I just tied her up, what about Sketch, did he say anything?"
"He's mad cause she blew him off, he doesn't wanna talk to or about her." said OC
"She must be pissed! Cause you saved me, kicked her and her brothers ass and all that!" said Alec
"Yeah, better watch you back! Both of you!" said Zack to Max and Alec
"Yeah, I guess we better."
(TBC)
**************************************************************************** **************
Next chapter will be more M/L talking, kinda boring I guess, but Max has to tell him about the kiss. So I guess it could be interesting, depends on how you look at it. I'm planning on involving Zack a little more, don't really know how yet. Oh right a question: should I kill Iris in the end? Or sooner? Cause I am gonna kill someone. Maybe I should kill off Vic, what do ya think? REVIEW. Ghosty girl
