Alec and Max continued walking to Logan's apartment. Once there, Logan ushered them into his place.
"Make yourselves at home guys, want anything to drink? Eat?" Logan asked.
"I'm fine." Max said quietly.
Logan looked at Alec.
"No thanks." Alec added.
Logan looked at Alec who nodded reassuring Logan that something was wrong.
"Max, what's going on?" Logan asked.
Max forced herself to look at Logan, trying to swallow the large lump in her throat and not to break into tears.
"Manticore took Krit away." Max said her voice cracking.
"Max, that's terrible, I'm so sorry." Logan said.
"Um thanks, we were wondering if Eyes Only could help us find out where the Manticore is located?" Max asked.
Logan grinned.
"Sure, I am sure Eyes Only will do anything to help you out Max." Logan said.
This made Max smile a little.
"Thanks. Um is it ok if I crash here tonight? I am exhausted and I don't think I can make it home." Max said.
"Sure Max, you know where the guest room is." Logan invited.
Max smiled.
"Thanks Logan." she said.
Logan nodded and looked at Alec.
"You wanna crash here too Alec? I got a couch." Logan asked.
"Sure thanks Logan." Alec said looking down at the couch.
"Goodnight boys." Max called as she walked down the hall and into the door.
Both waited until they hear the door click close then both looked at each other.
"Max? Exhausted?" Logan asked wondering if he heard right.
"Yep, she's been through a lot today, would be surprised if she wasn't." Alec said slowly sitting down on the couch.
"What happened?" Logan asked wanting to know details.
"I'm not exactly sure what happened Logan, I got there and found Max unconscious on the ground and Krit was sitting there. Ames was talking to Pryce and Krit told me to get Max out of there, so I did." Alec explained.
"Pryce? Who's Pryce?" Logan asked shaking his head in confusion.
"Max never told you about Pryce?" Alec asked amazed.
"No." Logan said.
"Wow, surprising, Max tells you everything. Anyway Pryce is the main training person at Manticore, as far as martial arts go. He was the devil. Very bad news if you're a transgenic. Max I scared crapless of this guy. Needless to say, so am I. Even Josh is, every transgenic doesn't like this guy." Alec explained.
"What's his last name?" Logan asked wanting more info.
"I don't know we called him Pryce in the barracks, but in front of him we just called him sir." Alec said.
"That bad huh?" Logan asked. Alec shook his head no.
"Worse." Alec corrected.
Max banged hard on the door.
"Alec! If you don't get your butt outta that bathroom, I'm gonna kill you! You have been there in for ½ hour! You're gonna make me late for work!!" Max shouted over the running water.
No response came, this made Max get even more frustrated.
"ALEC!" she yelled the warning pounding on the door harder, again no response.
Logan looked over at her taking his mind off the work on his computer, amused. Max sighed loudly, giving up and walked over to Logan.
"Unbelievable." she said, in a bathrobe with a white towel swung over her shoulder her hair up in a ponytail.
"Want some breakfast?" Logan asked jumping up from his desk and picking up a plate with toast, eggs, and sausage.
Max looked at the plate and grinned at him.
"Did you make this for me?" she asked.
"Yeah." Logan said smiling back.
"Thanks." she replied taking the plate and sat down at the table, putting the towel on the chair beside her.
"Orange juice?" Logan asked opening the fridge.
"Please." Max said with her mouth full.
"Comin' up." Logan said taking a glass from the cupboard and poured the juice in it.
Logan shut the fridge door with his foot and sat it in front of Max.
"Thanks Logan." she said.
"No problem." he said sitting down in the chair next to her.
Max then felt Logan's eyes watching her and she looked up at him.
"Everything ok?" she asked cleaning her teeth with her tongue.
"Yea, how come you never told me about Pryce?" he asked.
Max took the glass and took a sip of orange juice.
"Not a topic I am fond of telling or opening up to if you know what I mean." Max said sitting the glass down and fixing her eyes on the plate and moving a piece of sausage with her fork.
"Understandable. But if you want I can find out some more things about this guy if you want." Logan offered.
"I don't see the point Logan. I mean who cares if I know what shoe size he wears and how he likes his meat cook, it won't change the fact that I can't beat him." Max said sadly.
"What? Max you can beat that guy." Logan said.
"No I can't" Max answered quickly almost snapping.
"Why not?" he asked confused.
"Because I am too scared." Max admitted causing her bottom lip to tremble. Logan sighed.
"Max, I can understand why you're afraid of this guy, but you can beat him I know you can I seen what you can do." Logan encouraged.
Max looked at him giving him that warning look.
"You try spending years with him and tell me how easy it is to fight him let alone look at him. After all he's done. Logan, stay out of this ok, stay away from this guy and any info on him, it'll just lead you into trouble and will just lead you to his trap. And believe me, you DO NOT want to be in this man's trap." Max said blankly.
This made Logan almost frightened. He never seen Max so scared of something before.
Suddenly the opening of the bathroom door kicked both of them out of their world, causing both to look over at it. Steam poured out of the room and Alec came out with a towel around his waist.
"WHHHOOOHO! I am READY for today baby!" Alec said, his wet hair spiked up every direction.
"Thanks for the food." Max told Logan then picked up her towel and walked into the bathroom, punching Alec in the stomach on her way and closing the door.
Alec hunched over and gave Logan a confused look, who was only smiling at him.
"What was that for?" Alec asked pointing at the door.
Logan shrugged and picked up the dishes and walked them into the sink.
Pryce stood outside Manticore, his ice blue and black Kawasaki ninja sitting next to him. Pryce sighed as he looked to the left as he fixed the cuff to his leather jacket. Pryce was wearing dark blue jeans with the same chain and same old black boots, but he had a navy blue t-shirt, like his black one, on, that fit him tightly, sculpting around his biceps. Pryce rolled his neck around a couple of times before putting sunglasses on and jumping on his bike. He smiled to himself as he heard the engines come to life.
Max shut her locker, locking it at Jampony. Cindy walked up and leaned on the locker next to her.
"Hey boo, feeling better today?" Cindy asked smiling.
"Yea, thank goodness it wore off." Max said happily.
"Cool, hey the other and I are going to Crash after work, wanna come?" Cindy asked.
Max smiled.
"I'm there." she said.
"Cool, cool, well hey I gotta hot run so I'll see ya later when I get back." Cindy said.
"Ok, bye OC." she said as Cindy went through the door.
"Where the fire truck is Max?" Normal called out.
Max turned around.
"Right here Normal." Max said.
Normal stared at her for a few seconds then threw a package at her.
"Sector 12, hot run go, bip, bip, bip!" Normal said before circling back behind his desk.
Max picked up the package and sighed, sticking the package into her bag.
Pryce leaned against his bike casually, pulling a cigarette from his lips as he looked through his black sunglasses. Max walked out of Jampony, pulling the strap to her back closer to her.
"I don't understand why these people smoke, it's not good for your body and it's just gross. I don't like it." a voice said, causing Max to freeze and her eyes widened.
Chills ran up her and fear plunged into her brain. She spun around to see Pryce leaning casually against his bike, then flick the cigarette to his right. Pryce turned his head back to her and locked eyes with her, looking evilly at her, blowing smoke out. Max swallowed hardly as she just looked at him. Pryce crossed his arms and pulled himself off his bike and he slowly walked up to her.
"But of course these stupid, stupid people, continue to do it." Pryce said quietly approaching her.
"What are you doing here?" she demanded.
Pryce grabbed her collar and pulled her into him violently but unnoticeable.
"One, I don't think your in the authority to speak to me in that kind of a tone." He said behind clenched teeth.
Max only looked at him. Pryce slowly let Max go.
"And two, checking up on my favorite student." Pryce said smiling evilly at her.
"Or to take me back to Manticore." Max suggested.
Pryce chuckled.
"Can't do that now, I know you're not gonna just follow me to my car and let me chain you to the seat, so I can't do it right now. Not with all these people around." Pryce said lowly to her, glancing at people passing by.
"Umm, darn." Max said in sarcasm.
Pryce didn't smile. Max cleared her throat and looked away.
"Oh don't worry, I'll see you soon. Have a good day Max." Pryce said evilly and turned around and got on his bike then quickly sped away.
Max exhaled deeply. Never before did she love the people around here, until now.
"Alright all you hooligans! Get out of my sight!" Normal shouted at 6:30pm.
"Ohh Thank GOD that this day is over, I have been craving a beer all day! Sketchy complained locking his locker.
"Ahem to tat Sketch." Cindy said grabbing her purse.
Both looked over to Max.
"You still comin' boo?" OC asked.
Alec walked up behind Sketchy caring his leather jacket.
"Um sure I guess staying a little while can't do no harm." Max told herself.
"Only therapy. What about you Alec?" Sketchy commented.
Alec looked at Max.
"Sure, I'm in." Alec said.
"Cool! Maybe I'll be able to beat you in pool this time." Sketchy said happily.
Alec laughed.
"I doubt that." Alec said.
"Well I don't care who wins, just let's get over there! We don't wanna miss out on ANY action!" Cindy said leading them out.
Max looking behind her back as they walked out.
The 4 soon arrived at the jumping place, strobe lights flickering and nothing but spot lights and black lights giving light to the room. People stood smoking, making out, playing pool, and more. The 4 made their way through the crowd that was dancing, grabbing an empty pool table.
"OK ALEC! You vs. me, winner get 200 bucks!" Sketchy said gathering the balls on the table.
Alec smiled.
"Your on brother. Cindy can you go get us a pitcher of beer?" Alec said.
"Comin' up." Cindy said then turned and ventured back into the crowd.
"Ok, let's do this and boy, watch and learn Max!" Alec said breaking it.
2 pitchers and 3 games later, Sketchy was loosing for the third time, Cindy and Max observed, drank and laughed. Sketchy tipped his glass over revealing that it was empty.
"CRAP, I'm out." Sketchy said a little drunk.
"Aight, I'll get some more." Cindy said.
"No, this one is one me." Max insisted and made her way into the crowd, toward the bar.
"Hey bartender, another pitcher!" Max shouted at him and sat and waited.
Suddenly someone grabbed her by the mouth and she felt another wrap around her waist. Max's hands instinctively flew up to her mouth and grabbed the hand on her mouth trying to pull it off. She smelt a scent of cologne next to her and felt herself being pulled backwards.
She felt a body behind her and the fingers that just covered her mouth was now digging into her cheeks.
"Maxie, thought I would find you here." Pryce said in her ear.
Max struggled but he just dug his fingers into her flesh causing more pain.
"Max, don't do that your making it worse." he said.
Pryce looked around smiling because no one was noticing that he was basically attacking this poor girl.
"Let's continue this outside shall we babe?" Pryce asked dragging her back to the back door.
Max's arms were pinned and she had nothing to grab a hold of so her body had no choice but to follow. Pryce opened the door with his back and threw her out into the alley, Max crashing into trashcans. Max jumped up, ready to fight. Pryce sighed.
"Not this again." he said.
