Tick, Tick, Tick
It was like the clock was mocking her.
Tick, Tick, Tick
Every second felt like an hour.
Tick, Tick gunshot?
What was once an old grandfather clock was now, well an old grandfather
clock with a bullet in it causing the thing from working. Max turned to
look at the shooter who held a rifle in one hand and a cigar in his mouth.
"Meh, the clock was getting on my nerves. With the tick ticking," Mole
replied shrugging. He turned back around to continue what ever it was he
was working on.
"Right so now how are we going to tell what time it is Mole? A sun dial?"
Max asked just trying to make a point. She never really cared for the damn
thing but who knows; when this whole thing is over they could always just
sell it, should be worth something. The thing looked like it was used some
way before the pulse, and things from before it were worth it.
"Oh please I saw they way you were looking at it. It was getting to you
too!" Mole argued trying to get back to his work. "Yeah but who knows the
money we could have gotten for it!" Max smiled; she was getting under his
skin. "Oh god! It's a damn clock!!!"
"Yeah but you see Mole it's like your cigars-"
"No don't even go there Max!" Mole interrupted.
"You want them so bad but it's not really something we need," She added her
smile getting bigger. "I'm not listening!"
"And the smoke annoys so many but there's one person, one person that
really wants it, that's you. You want your cigars and well since the clock
that we adored is gone. what about if I stopped the whole cigar-?"
"FINE! Fine, I'll fix it all right? I'll fix the damn thing happy now?!"
Mole shouted giving up, when it came to his cigars, he'd do anything.
"Sure whatever," Max shrugged going back to the work she had on the table.
The look on Moles face was priceless.
"Hey Max I've. huh, hey Mole um. you might wanna close your mouth. A bug
might decide to lay it's eggs in there," Alec said grinning as he entered
HQ.
"Shut up Alec!" Mole shouted. He walked over and grabbed the grandfather
clock then dragged it out of the room.
"What's up with him?" Alec asked rather interested. "He put a bullet in my
lovely clock," Max replied pretending to pout.
"I though you hated that thing!"
"Yeah well. um. heehee it was funny," Max replied bursting out in laughing.
Alec just grinned. It was nice to see Max happy again. She hasn't been like
this since the little realization with Logan and the secrets he been
keeping.
"So uh, I want to show you something," Alec said taking Max's smooth hand
pulling her up from her seat. She smiled although unaware of what was going
on. He guided her out of HQ.
Only a few blocks down they came to a stop. Transgenic were entering and
leaving the building and music could be heard from outside. As they entered
what looked like an old abandoned building inside. felt like home. It was a
bar like Crash, their old hangout. Or just a place to drink out your
sorrows. "What do you think?" Alec asked fidgeting.
Max's smile grew wider as she looked up at him. "I love it!"
In a moments second an old pre pulse song was put on.
The music started slowly as Max looked up at Alec.
'How can you see into my eyes like open doors?'
"You wanna dance?" Max asked hopeful.
'Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb'
"Sure, what's the harm in that?" Alec answered taking her hand leading her
to where other transgenics were dancing.
'Without a soul
My spirit sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home'
Max's hips swayed in Alec hands and her arms were wrapped behind her around
his neck.
'Wake me up inside
wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before i come undone
save me from the nothing i've become'
She could feel his warm breathe on her shoulder as they danced to the
music.
'Now that i know what i'm without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life'
Max turned around to face the male X5 and looked deep into his eyes as she
danced closer to him, moving her hands down his chest.
'Wake me up inside
wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before I come undone
save me from the nothing I've become
bring me to life
frozen inside without your touch without your love darling
Only you are the life among the dead'
Alec leaned down closer to her, and their lips met.
'all this time I can't believe I couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
without a thought without a voice without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life'
It was like a spell had been broken and they pulled apart.
"I. I don't know if I could do this yet," And she ran, she ran like she
always has been doing all her life, leaving a dazzled Alec left standing on
the spot.
'Wake me up inside
wake me up inside
call my name and save me from the dark
bid my blood to run
before I come undone
save me from the nothing I've become
bring me to life'
