Max walked into HQ with a blank expression. What had happened the previous
night had shaken her and she didn't know what to expect once she enter. But
standing at the entrance everything was pretty much the same, there was
only one thing missing, the second in command.
Everyone else seemed to have been to business as usual, probably unaware of
what had happen, or they knew and they really just didn't care.
When Max reached her office all she found was piles of paper to be looked
at. Shutting her eyes she tried to block everything else out, think it was
for the better and got to work.
On the fifth page everything on the page just went blurry. She couldn't
concentrate on the page, thoughts and flash backs just kept on running over
and over through her head. Max couldn't stand it anymore. She probably
really hurt the only guy that ever really meant anything real to her, other
then Logan.
But he knew, he knew everything she went through and he still cared and
didn't do anything to change her. Because he went through it all, and even
more. And it was her fault, if Max and her unit never left Manticore, then
they would have never suffered. This was too much for her; Max couldn't get
any other this out of her head. Only seconds later Alec had walked into the
room.
Alec had been ready to tell her some big speech that he was sorry that he
had ever attempted anything last night but when he entered her office he
found Max leaning on her desk looking pale. "Max are you alright?"
She looked up at him with a faint smile. "I'm great," then loosing her
balance Max fainted and hit her head on the edge of her desk.
"Max!" Alec rushed over at where she lay on the ground unconscious. He
checked on her making sure she was ok. From what he could tell she
obviously fainted, but didn't know from what, and that she had a mild
concussion.
He carried her out of the HQ to the medical center.
Entering he took Max to a familiar face. "Hey Gem! Do you think you could
help?" Alec called over to the young X5. "Oh my Max! What happened?" she
asked leading him to a room. "She fainted ended up smacking her head
against the edge of her desk. I thought I should bring her in just incase,"
Alec answer laying Max down gently on the bed. Gem exhaled with relief. She
checked everything she could think of then lead Alec out side.
"Max is ok, it seems she's just really stressed out and couldn't take the
stress anymore so she did what any other human would do, she fainted. The
desk didn't do anything really harmful just when she wakes up there might
be a slight headache. But I suggest she leave Terminal City for a while. If
this happens again then it's quit possible that she'll smash her head
against a pipe or something. Do you know a place she could maybe stay low
out of Terminal City?"
Alec nodded. But he couldn't see what had made Max so stressed. After all
it was her that had left last night. He should be more stressed then Max.
When Alec had walked back into the room Max was awake sitting up in the
bed. "What happened?" Max asked rubbing her head from the slight injury.
"You fainted and hit you head on the edge of your desk,"
"Oh," She said just staring straight ahead.
"You're leaving," Alec said out of nowhere.
"What?" She was confused why would she be leaving? "Look Alec." But he
interrupted her. "No! You leaving for a while and that's that! Gem said
that you have been under too much stress lately and that is most likely
true so I called OC and your going to stay with her until you've gotten all
relaxed n' shit. Logan will be expecting you at 7:00pm tonight at the
tunnel out and he is not aware that you know about Seth. OC will be there
with him. And so I guess I will see you at 6:30," And with that Alec turned
to the door but an
Outstretched hand prevented him from walking out the door.
He turned his head slightly to see the face of the X5 leader. "I'm really
sorry for leaving last night Alec,"
"Yeah, me too," And he left the room to leave her to get ready for her
departure out of Terminal City for what he hoped was a short time.
~~~@@@Authors Note: You know what would be great? Reviews. I haven't gotten
any since the last 1 or 2 chapters. .Maybe I should stop writing? Anyway
this is the deal, 3 reviews from 3 separate people and I'll start the next
chapter and I'll try to do it quickly. If not maybe I should just quit .
