Max ran up the stairs and barged into Logan's kitchen. He was putting away the groceries.
"Max, everything ok?"
"Sure." Max sat down on one of the stalls and picked up an apple.
"Did you talk to him?" Logan sat on the one across from her.
"I said I would didn't I? It's done Logan."
"Ok, you know, we should talk about what you guy found out today. Why don't you go get Alec?"
"Sure! ALEC! GET YOUR ASS IN HERE!" Max yelled.
"Well, I could have done that myself." Logan mumbled under his breath.
Alec thundered up the stairs "What?"
"We have to discuss the information we gathered." Max bit the apple and chewed.
"No, we have to get ready to leave in ten minutes if you want to make it to the meeting on time." Alec leaned against the doorframe and smirked.
"Oh shit! I forgot about that!" Max fled down the stairs and slammed her closet open.
Alec had to jump out of the way to avoid getting knocked down by her.
"What meeting?" Logan asked Alec.
"Remember the popular kids Sebastian told us to mingle with? Well as it turns out they hold meetings in a secret place. We have to go there today, there's some kind of initiation or something, we have to pass that to join the group."
"Alec! What are you wearing?" Max yelled.
"My school uniform" Alec yelled back sarcastically.
Max appeared at the top of the stairs wearing a black bra and her leather pants. Logan almost had a heart attack at the sight of her bare flesh, Alec seemed unaffected and that bothered Logan for some reason.
"I mean to the meeting you ass." Max scolded him and held up two blouses, a blue one and a black one.
Alec sighed, he was trying hard not to let his reaction to her show. He convinced himself that he would have to get used to it, they DID live together and he HAD bugged her about being so modest.
"You're wearing leather pants?"
Max frowned "What are you wearing?"
"Jeans. You should do the same! It's just a meeting after all"
Max sighed and ran down the stairs.
Logan and Alec exchanged glances.
"Oh and Max?"
She stopped at the bottom of the stairs and turned around to glance at him.
"What?"
"The black one." Logan and Alec said together. Max smiled and disappeared from view.
*************
Max walked out of the bathroom wearing skin tight jeans and a sleeveless black shirt with the word Brat written in glitter, her hair was up and held in place with two Chinese sticks, a few curly locks framed her face and she was wearing a very light coat of lipstick and lip gloss.
She found Alec lying down on his bed, wearing his uniform.
"Alec! You're not ready? It's really late!" Max screamed at him, she stormed to his closet and tore though it until she found something for him to wear.
She tossed the clothes at him and he frowned.
He held up the black undershirt and the green button down shirt and raised an eyebrow.
"What? I like that shirt, matches your eyes." Max shrugged.
Alec raised his eyebrows even higher but changed without complaining. He left the green shirt unbuttoned over the black undershirt and ran a hand through his hair.
Max had to admit, he looked amazing.
"Logan, we're leaving!" Max yelled.
"Want me to drive you?" He appeared at the top of the stairs
"No, it's supposed to be a secret location." Max told him.
Logan was staring at her.
"What?"
"You look amazing."
Max smiled "Thanks! Let's go Alec." She grabbed his hand and pulled him out the back door. "Do you have the address?"
Alec gave her a look.
*************
"Are you sure this is the way?" Max asked Alec for the tenth time.
"Yes Max, we have to walk through the woods to get to the house." Alec answered patiently for the tenth time.
"I see a light!" Alec pointed at what seemed to be a fire. As they approached they discovered that the fire was outside a huge colonial mansion.
"Oh my god, no wonder they wanted to keep this secret. That place is so beautiful." Max stopped to look at the house. Alec moved the flashlight around, to alert the kids of their presence. They didn't really need a flashlight, since they had night vision, but two teenagers finding their way around the woods in the dark would be too suspicious.
"Hey! Look who's here!" Iker pointed at them. The twelve members of the group where sitting around the fire, making smores.
"Hi!" Max waved at everyone and sat down next to Iker. Alec took a seat next to her.
Nikki, who was sitting next to Alec, handed him the bag of marshmallows.
"Ok, I'm glad you two are here, now we can get started." Leo stood up and smiled at the crowd.
"We asked you to come here tonight so that we could explain the rules of the game to you, so to speak. There are a lot of things you need to know about us and about the school. First of all, maybe we should tell you the school rules. You are not allowed to date your roommate or housemate, if they find out you're dating someone on your own building you will be relocated."
Max and Alec exchanged a glance, Leo raised an eyebrow. "I hope that's not a problem for you two. The teachers like to leave optional work, you know for extra credits? But most of it is really hard, mostly the geeks are the ones who do that but Dak nailed one last week didn't you Dakareth?" Leo smiled proudly at Dak, she smiled back.
"What did you do?" Max asked.
"Nothing, I just improved the flu vaccine they have been giving us." She blushed a little.
"Flu vaccine?" Alec frowned
"Yeah, every Friday we get a flu shot, we never get sick and no one misses school. They have been doing it for a year or so." Leo told them.
"Anyway, as for the group rules, we take small tests every week."
"Tests? What kind of tests?" Max glanced around the circle, everyone was smiling mischievously.
"It's nothing, small dares, really fun stuff!" Amanda glanced at Ashley and they giggled.
"We have a hat, we call it the magic hat. Someone, anonymously, comes here every week and drops 12 pieces of paper into it. If you have an idea then you may write it down and drop it in too." Ashley told them.
"We should do the picking right now, show them how it's done. Then we can tell them about their initiation." Amanda grabbed the black top hat from the ground and reached inside, she grabbed a piece of paper and gave the hat to Sean.
After everyone but Max and Alec had a paper they all opened it and read it out loud.
"Karaoke singing." Stephanie told them.
"Me too." Luke, Melissa and Sean said.
"Skinny dipping at the lake." Dade said.
Amanda, Ashley and Iker nodded.
Dak frowned at hers "Riding every ride at Six Flags? Who wrote this?" She held up the paper.
Dave smiled "Come on Dak, you know it's anonymous. Plus I'm with you."
Nikki and Leo glanced at each other "Us too!"
"Ok, let's tell MJ and Alec their initiations now." Dak stood up and brushed her pants.
"Ok kids, the initiation is not easy. It's designed to test your abilities and get rid of your inhibitions because if you do join we will become your family, that's what the dares are for too, they help get rid of inhibitions and make you stronger."
Max gulped she did not like the sound of that.
"Alec, your mission if you choose to accept it..."
"Oh come on Dak, what's up with the drama?" Dade groaned.
Dak gave him a look and continued "As I was saying, your mission is to seduce this girl."
Dak handed him a picture of a girl he identified as one of the hackers.
"You will sleep with her, get to her computer and download the files named GC, PC and PTA."
Alec's eyes where wide, he had to bite his tongue to keep from saying anything.
Max clenched her hands into fists but said nothing.
"And what happens with the girl afterwards?"
"Nothing, you tell her it was a one night thing, that you have a reputation to keep or what ever. Be sure to use protection and have a good time. Now MJ, your mission is a little different."
Max held her breath and waited for Dak to continue "You are going to strip."
"Strip?"
Dak nodded "There's a popular strip club nearby, we need to know who goes in and out. You have to apply for a job there, go in, place a camera and then just do your work."
Max swallowed "Do I really have to strip? Because I can put the camera and get out."
Dak shook her head "One, it would be too suspicious, two, you need to strip, remember we need to get rid..."
"Of my inhibitions, I got that." Max sighed.
Dak gave her a sympathetic smile "You have to install the camera first, we need to make sure you actually go through with everything."
Max sighed but nodded.
"If both your missions are successfully then you will tag along to every dare we have to do for this week, you will go to Six Flags Saturday morning, Karaoke singing on the evening and skinny dipping at night. If everything goes well the final phase of your initiation will take place Saturday night. We'll tell you what it is once the time comes. So are you in or are you out?"
Alec and Max exchanged glances
"We're in."
*************
Max slammed the door open and walked into her place. She walked over to her bed and laid down on her stomach, burying her face on a pillow.
"Max, Alec, you guys down there?" Logan knocked on their door and walked in.
He glanced from Max to Alec, who was sprawled all over the couch.
"I take it didn't go too well."
Alec sighed "The meeting itself wasn't bad. It was just not what we expected."
Logan frowned "Let's go into the living room. I made some snacks and we really need to talk about everything."
Max groaned "Can't we do it tomorrow? I have tons of homework and some studying to do and I..."
"Max" Alec got up from the couch and walked to her bed, he sat down besides her and rubbed her back "You're not going to make this go away by ignoring it. We have things to plan and to discuss. There's got to be a way out of this."
Max hated to admit it to herself but he was right. She shrugged his hand off and got up.
"Ok then, let's make this quick."
************* "Why would they make you strip? What's the big deal with this whole inhibition thing?" Logan was shocked by the story.
"I don't know but would you please not say 'inhibition' again? I'm sick and tired of hearing that word." Max rubbed her temples and groaned.
"I know why they are doing it, it was completely normal back at Manticore." Alec said slowly.
"What do you mean?"
"Well Max, you left when we where really young, you should have waited until we started having some sex appeal."
Max leaned towards him and whispered "What?"
"They thought us a lot of stuff Max, they wanted us to be able to perform well on our missions. They couldn't just send us out and expect us to know how to behave, how to win a lady over, they trained us Max."
"Oh my God"
"Some of the missions where pretty much what I have to do now, go in, have sex with the target, obtain information and get out. They did that Max, and we needed to be comfortable with it. The showers where co-ed, we had training on seducing targets, we had lovers skills, the works. Why do you think I didn't even complain when we where paired off? I was used to it Max."
Max covered her mouth with her hand "Oh Alec I'm so sorry."
Alec shrugged "It's no big deal, let's just get this over with so that I can go to bed ok?"
"But Alec are you."
"I said it's no big deal! Now let's get back to work."
"Alec."
"Something's off with the music." Alec interrupted Max before she could say anything else.
"Excuse me?" Logan asked.
"The music, on the classrooms? You know Mozart? There's something wrong with it, a little sound or something. It might be nothing, maybe the sound system is just old."
"Or maybe it's some kind of subliminal message." Logan leaned forward on his seat.
"No, I listened to it all morning and there are no words, just noise." Max took a bite of a sandwich and leaned back on the couch next to Alec.
"Dak said something really weird to me."
"Is she a really pretty girl with brown hair and green eyes?" Logan interrupted.
"Yeah."
"I gave her a class today."
"Oh, well anyway, she said something about everyone being really curious, but she said not to worry, that if I became elite I would get a hold of information before it was released and I would be able to control it."
Alec nodded "Something about controlling communication, being important. I got that too, but it did bug me how everyone in the elite seemed to know so much about us. I guess it's just normal considering we're new and all."
Logan frowned "Hold on, how much did they know about you?"
Max bit her lip "They know our names, schedules, locker numbers, the money in our accounts, the works."
"Max, that is NOT normal." Logan ran a hand though his hair.
"Well, anyway, we have a few established social groups or something." Alec said
"Yeah, we have the geeks, the astronomy and math club, the chess club, the hackers."
"Don't forget that group of young cute girls." Alec interrupted.
"Hold on, how did you recognize all this groups?"
"Oh Logan it's just like the movies you know? Different tables, everyone sitting in groups, everyone knows about them and you can spot them a mile away."
Logan frowned "Max, that's not normal either, it just doesn't happen like that."
"Oh shit, wait a second!" Alec stood up suddenly.
"What?" Max asked him
"It's so obvious! I can't believe we didn't notice this before!" Alec sat back down "Geeks? Intelligence, Chess club? Strategists, Astronomy club?"
"Recon" Max filled in for him "Or maybe just scientist"
"What about the cute girls?" She wondered.
Max and Alec glanced at each other "Oh my god."
"What?" Logan asked.
"Psy ops" They said together
"And what about the rest of the kids? Any more categories?"
"Well no, they are just normal kids. Part of the bunch." Max said
"They must be the X series." Logan rubbed his temples.
"Ok, but what about the elite?"
Max thought about it for a moment "Oh shit!"
"What?"
"They are COs!"
The room became silent for a moment.
"Max, we really need to be a part of that group. There's just no way around it. We have to go through with the initiation."
Max sighed "I know."
Logan rubbed the bridge of his nose "You guys, do you know what this means?" He asked them.
"We're really inside a new Manticore facility."
"For real." Alec rubbed his temple.
"For real for sure." Max sat back and wondered to herself, how the heck where they going to pull this one off?
__________________________________________________________
See? I gave you a chapter fast! The language might be a little strong, what do you think? And I know what you must be thinking, Max stripping? Yeah right! Well she DID give Alec a lap dance once so... who knows? Besides, I don't know if she's going to go through with it yet.
Anyway, I wanted to thank you all for the reviews! Those of you who want some action, or some physical contact, I'll give you some next chapter, I promise!
Please remember to vote, the voting will be ending soon, I'll have to take a side eventually so give me your opinion while you still can! And please, M/L lovers, don't flame me by telling me that my writing sucks because I'm writing something that will probably turn M/A! Please don't flame me unless you've read this far and you consider the story to be bad.
Oh and I just wanted to thank Scarlet, you rock girl!
