CHAPTER SIXTEEN
*********
Original Cindy and Max walked down Abernathy Street and Aldrich Lane in search of the perfect outfit for Max to wear. She knew that Logan would think she looked beautiful in almost anything, but she wanted to have her dress up nicely. Original Cindy had taken upon herself to drag Max along to find that perfect outfit.
"OC, I really don't see any point in this...I mean I do want to look good, but I'm sure I could have done that with the clothes I have at home." Max said, trying to be dismissive.
"Naw boo, OC ain't gonna fall fo none a that." Original Cindy pulled Max along and into the first store.
"We gonna make Logan wish he hadn't danced around ya for a year." Original Cindy said with a proud smirk on her face. Immediately Original Cindy felt guilty for saying what she had. Her face fell and there was visible sadness in her eyes.
"I'm sorry boo, I shouldn't have said that. My point is boo, lova boyz gonna go crazy. We gonna make you look good." Original Cindy quickly grabbed a pale green satiny dress off the display.

Alec walked with Joey in hand down the hallways of Terminal City and into the command center.
"Hey Mole!" Alec greeted as he made his way into the door.
"Hey there Alec! Who's the little guy?" Mole asked as he got up and walked closer to them.
"He's actually my..." He stopped and bent down to Joey's eye level.
"Hey Joey, why don't you go sit where Mole was, but remember don't touch anything." Joey nodded and briskly walked over to the seat.
Alec looked back at Mole and smiled. "He's my son, actually."
Mole looked over at Joey and then back at Alec.
"Manticore or...your own doing?" Mole chuckled.
"Manticore."
"I see."
"Yep."
"So what brings you?" Mole asked as they headed to where Joey sat sucking his thumb.
"Well Jeff has some stuff for me, and I needed to talk to him. Ya mind keeping Joey here for a few while I go talk to Jeff?"
"No problem. I'm sure the little guy won't be a problem." Mole ruffled Joey's hair.
Joey sat smiling at Alec and Mole.
"Be right back Joey." Alec called over his shoulder as he made his way into the cell where Jeff was.
***********************
Logan sat in front of his computer talking to Sebastian.
"So there really isn't anything you can do?"
"Logan, you know I would do everything I could to help you, but this virus is too sophisticated for even me to handle." Sebastian's mechanical voice echoed in the computer room.
"I know, thanks for your help so far. I appreciate it." Logan said, feeling slightly defeated.
The phone line died and Logan sat alone in his computer room to think. He had to find a cure for the virus soon, he knew that. He didn't know how long he or Max would be able to hold onto the search.
He had become increasingly frustrated with lack of leads, and deciding that he wouldn't get much done with a chip on his shoulders, he stretched out the muscles of his neck and back. He made his way into the living room and made a reservation to a place that he thought Max would really enjoy.

It had been a few hours since they had gotten back from the shops, and Max was almost done and ready to go.
Original Cindy placed the finishing touches of make-up on Max. They had used little make-up, and it had helped to accentuate Max's dress and her own beauty.
Max got up after Original Cindy had taken an admiring look at her handy work. An hour and a half of doing Max's hair, and make-up had payed off. Original Cindy got an idea and rushed into her room.
"What the hell are you doing?" Max asked as she adjusted her hair slightly.
"Nuttin boo, just wait there a second will ya." Original Cindy grabbed what she wanted from her room, checking it over before she entered Max's room. Original Cindy snuck in as best she could and snapped a photograph of Max.
"What the..!" Max looked over at Original Cindy a mix of surprise and annoyance betrayed her.
"Hey boo, it's not every day you get all dolled up like this, decided to take my opportunity." She smiled coyly and put the camera down on table.
"Yeah, sure. Well just make sure that the film doesn't end up in the wrong hands." Max nodded at the camera. She didn't really like pictures, she hadn't really liked the idea of being duplicated onto a thin two dimensional piece of paper.
"Boo, come on it's time for you to go. Don't wanna leave ya boy hangin." Original Cindy escorted Max to the door and gave her a slight push. "You go make that boyz eyes spin." She smiled and closed the door on Max.
"But...," She silently finished her sentence to herself. "He won't be ready for another hour and a half."

Alec sat with a two vile bottles in his hands, and he frantically paced the room.
"There are two bottles there, and you only need one, but I was busy and got carried away." Jeff disdainfully smiled at Alec and shrugged.
"Take a look here and you'll see that the cure creates the ultimate road block, while surrounding the "disease" and changing it into nothing." Jeff sounded proud as he announced it.
"It should only take one hour to be completely gone from the hosts body. Max should be able to handle that." He added.
Alec looked over at Jeff, he could never thank the geek enough. He had rescued Alec from the hell hole he had been in.
"You had better get over there and tell those two."
"Yeah, I should." Alec could help but smile. He hugged Jeff and thanked him before returning to where Mole and Joey were watching something on a TV screen.
"Joey! Let's hit the road." Alec said as he grabbed his coat.
Joey jumped from Mole's lap and ran to Alec and jumped onto his leg, and wrapped himself on it.
Alec laughed and walked out pretending to be lifting a heavy load.
*********
Max was on her way down the lift with her ninja as her pager shrilled. She quickly glanced at the number and it was one she didn't recognize. As she reached the ground floor she made her way out and to the closest pay phone.
After three rings and what seemed like forever someone picked up the phone.
"Yea, you paged me?" Max asked angrily.
"Hey Max!" Alec seemed all too cheery and delighted to hear from her.
"What the hell do you want?" She was at ends with Alec.
"Now, now Maxie I thought you'd be happy to hear from your bro." He paused, "I have some good news for you." He said in a sing-song voice.
"And, the good news would be?" She asked, her voice completely void of any emotion besides the obvious, annoyance.
"Meet me at this address," He paused again and Max could hear muffled laughter. Max rolled her eyes and waited impatiently.
"Okay, sorry Max, it's...5315 North Mayflower Ave...its in sector seven. You should be able to find it relatively easily." Alec sounded beside himself with happiness.
"Alec! I gotta be at Logan's in a little more than an hour." She whined. "Your not gonna ruin this."
"Max! I don't plan to. I just need you to get here okay. Just promise me that you will get here immediately and I promise you wont be let down." Alec's voice was laced with the confirmation she needed.
"Alec, I'll be there." She hung up the phone and quickly began her search for their meeting place.
Twenty minutes later she had crossed into sector seven and was heading down Mayflower Avenue. She found the address and dismounted her bike and strode up the walkway leading to the house. A small boy smiled at her through the window.
'He's going for women with kids, that isn't like him.' She thought to herself.
Alec opened the door before she arrived at it and he welcomed her inside. He casually introduced her to Amy, Joey and Stephanie. He had made sure that Max's baby would be kept in the nursery until the time came to give her the baby. They all made their way into the living room and sat down casually on the sofa.
"Max, you look wonderful." Amy said as she admired Max's attire.
Alec smiled his agreement. "Max....Well see I have really great news. You see..."
