Author's note- hey guys what's happening!!!??

I first want to apologize that I haven't updated in a while. No I haven't forgot, but my high school spring vaca just hit, so this is my first time on a computer b/c I am spending time with my dad. But I am posting on his laptop in Tampa Florida. I am a little red and it kinda hurts but oh well;)

And also, I think I kinda have run myself into a big wall! Lol I am having a little harder time figuring out what should happen next, I don't want to repeat anything, so I am asking.....YOU! I need YOUR help. If you want to say what you would like to see or like to happen in general tell me and I will work it into my plot and give you credit in my author notes! So please I need at least like 2 or 3 of you to say something you want to happen. B/c if you do that might inspire me for something new to happen also. This might be almost done, this fan fic maybe within the next 10- 15 chapters. But I am writing another one down and all I have to do is type and post. I think you'll like my up coming fan fic, it does have SOME similar things in it as 'he's everywhere' but rest assured, it will be way different (I hope!)

SO PLEASE POST YOUR IDEAS even if only one of you do, please try and give me a lead here!( THANKS SO MUCH! ALSO THANKS FOR REDING AND REVIWING, I LOVE ALL REVIEWS GOOD AND BAD!

THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO EVEN CONSIDERS READING MY WORK! I LOVE YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
****~CARPE DIEM~****

PS- please excuse typing errors I did spell-check but it's like 3; 30 am and I don't have the effort to reread it, thanks and sorry!
Zack sat on the couch, Max's head laying on his lap, his sister asleep. "Logan, what are we going to do?" Zack asked helplessly.

Logan chewed on the antenna of his phone as he paced in front of them.

"I don't have the slightest clue." Logan admitted.

"Well we can't just do nothing White's out there with Alec and I am sorry but I don't think they are trying to get her to play tea party or some weird crap like that." Zack said in panic.

"I know, I know, I know." Logan said a sound of helplessness in his voice as well.

"Well I know Max can fight them off but-"

"No, I dunno, she's a bit shook up after battling Telios." Logan interrupted.

Zack jumped to his feet, thanks to his genetic powers making it to his feet quickly and without waking Max.

"Telios is out there?" He said in fear.

Logan looked at him.

"Why. is that problem?" Logan asked. Zack took a step closer to Logan.

"Problem? Yeah it's a god damn problem! Logan! Telios!? Telios scares transgetics shitless, believe me if you know how he is and what he does you'll understand. Did Max bring him down?" Zack asked.

"She didn't say all she said was that she barely got away from him." Logan answered.

"Logan..I was the best X5 in our group, heck probably in Manticore, the best male X5 anyway, I couldn't even come close to bringing Telios down." Zack admitted.

Logan looked at him, worry in his eyes.

"Logan." Zack began as he turned to look out into the black night from Logan's window.

Logan saw Zack run his fingers stressfully through his short hair.

"We can't bring down 5 strong people." Zack said softly.

"5?" Logan asked confused.

"Yea 5. Ames, now he's a familiar and he's smart the asshole, he's smarter than any person I know and I hate admitting that. Telios.ha, enough said. Alec, he's strong, he's an X5 but I can take him. My clone, he is just as strong as I am and that isn't good, he could screw with Max's mind, make her fall into a trap, not good. And of course Lydecker." Zack explained.

"Lydecker?" Logan asked in fear.

Zack turned and faced Logan.

"Yea, LYDECKER. On my way here I seen him, getting out of a car, he's alive, he's here, he's with Ames, and he's gonna track Max down. And they are going to catch her and there is nothing I can do about it!" Zack said getting angry with himself.

"Zack, you need to calm donw, panicking is NOT going to help us now, or Max ok, or you so just chill.. i need to chill also." Logan said sitting down on the couch.

"I know Logan, but this is so screwed UP! They are going to take my baby sister away then they are coming after the rest of us, including me." Zack said sadly then he looked at Max who was peacefully asleep.

"I want to run away, take Max with me, we'll hide from them." Zack said touching her face with his index finger.

"Running away isn't the thing to do Zack." Logan said sighing.

"It's the only way, to keep them from taking her away from me, and torturing her, making her cry making her suffer, then causing me and our other brothers and sisters pain. I won't have it. I won't allow it." Zack replied.

"Zack, where are you going to go?" Logan asked annoyed, this topic has been brought up before.

"I don't know, somewhere but here.anywhere but here." Zack answered not taking his eyes off of Max's face.

"Zack, it won't do any good. Yeah you might get away from them for a couple more years but come on Zack, you know how Ames is, he'll search the whole damn globe for her, I don't know why but you and I both know he would. Plus now that Ames and Lydecker are together, they are rounding up transgetics left and right; Manticore will grow stronger and bigger. Zack, I don't know what to do. Eyes only is stumped as well, we can't stop the growth of Manticore." Logan admitted softly to him.

Zack looked back at Logan his eyes glossy.

"I don't know why they have to be like this. I would have no problem living my life in a building if it were better but their brutal tactics are too much to bear. I can remember when I was younger every single day seeing Jondy get a broken arm, or Seth get a seizure, or Lydecker punching Max down, or them slowly tearing Ben apart. And I don't want to witness that again. And I know every X5 doesn't want that." Zack said.

Logan looked down, he felt so bad for them. A long silence fell between the two. Soon Logan stood up.

"Well if you run, they will follow especially if you have Max. Come on this has been a rough night, let's try to get some sleep, and discuss it over in the morning, come on, I'll show you where you can sleep." Logan replied.

Zack shook his head yes then gently picked Max up in his arms. Logan showed Zack where Max slept and he gently laid her down on her bed. Zack forced himself to smile then kissed her forehead then left the room closing it behind him.

Max shot up, the darkness her only company she heard Logan and Zack talking in the hallway. She heard every word of Zack and Logan's conversation and it made her want to cry. She couldn't stay with them; she didn't want to loose her friends. Looking around she jumped up and opened a window above her bed. Easily she crawled out of the window and before she knew it, she was on the ground.

She looked left then right then sprinted across the street. She ran up to a building where she threw her back to it, so no one would sneak up on her. She breathed heavily, but not from running but from fear. She looked in every direction before creeping down the street. She had just calmed down a little when suddenly an old tuna can came rolling on its side.

She looked at it as it fell on it's back. Full of suspension she glared into the dark alley, seeing nothing. She looked back down at the tuna can then back into the darkness and watched.

Suddenly she spun around releasing her right arm, the figure ducked and grabbed her mouth pulling her into him. She gasped and made a noise as her hands flew up to the person's hand. It wasn't Ames; his hand would be smoother and stronger. And it wasn't Telios because his hand was long, this hand was short. Her eyes widened.

"Max. such a pleasure." A raspy voice said.

Lydecker! Max struggled, but for an older man he was quite strong and built. He knew just how to hold a transgenic as well, having to learn to control one for so many years. Suddenly something else caught her eye, Alec. Alec's eyes were glowing red and his smile evil grin sent chills through her body. His hair spiked up everywhere and he was all dress in black.

"I missed my daughter, and I think it's time for her to come back home." Lydecker said evilly in her ear as she struggled against him.

Max, fed up, jabbed her heel into Lydecker's foot then raised her right arm, hitting him in the face. Max then free from her 'master's' grasp spun around toward the house. Alec raised an eyebrow as he started quickening his ace towards her.

"ZACK!" Max screamed.
