Family reunion
Max and Jace speak on the phone for a good hour or two before Jace finally makes a decision...
"Max I am going to come and help you with this..." she begins.
Max is a little in shock from the way Jace just said it with out even a second thought. Max turned to Logan and then back to the window to stare out into the afternoon light.
"What about your daughter? Where will you guys stay?" max asked
Max hears her sister laugh on the other end...
"I am sure you can help me figure out where I can stay max and your niece's name..." Jace said then paused before she said her daughters name
Max finished jades paused sentence, "max, I know you promised you would name her after me."
Once again we hear Jace laugh a little, "Yeah its max, and she looks like her aunt too."
Max smiles lightly and finishes her conversation with Jace. Jace decides that she will come down with in the next few days. They hang up and max sits down with a smile on her face. A few seconds later she notices Logan in the kitchen making something to drink. Max joins him her smile even bigger then moments before. She watches him as he moves around the kitchen not noticing her watching him. Finally he stops and looks up at her. He smiles and hands her one of
the glasses.
"Don't worry its tea." he said
She took the cup from Logan and took a drink of her tea. It wasn't half bad. But her stomach was still turning. She turned to look around at the apartment. She was in complete silence for a moment before she turned back at Logan and began to speak.
"So what are we going to do? I mean actually do?" she asked
He looked around also.
"You can come live with me, I mean, isn't that what would be best for all three of us?" Logan replied
"Yeah, I would like that... "
Max put down her cup and went into the next room. Logan follows her and they sit on the couch together. He looks up and smiles at max.
"So I guess I will set you up with a doctor, so you and I can get the baby checked out." Logan said
Max nodded, and looked at Logan. She was so happy about all this, despite her original fears of what might happen. She really was happy.
Back at max and original Cindy's apartment every thing seemed quiet and peaceful. At least till the door began to shake. The door to the apartment shook violently for a few seconds then was torn from the hinges. What looked like sector police began to search the apartment followed by a man wearing a black suit. As they ransacked the apartment the man curiously looked around. Finally one of the "sector police" came up to the man.
"Sir she is not here..." he said
"Okay soldier, fall out." replied the man in the black suit.
The soldier signals his men out of the apartment and then hesitates when he notices the man standing behind.
"Sir are you coming?" he asked
The man turns to face the soldier, "I will be there in a second, I am going to do a little searching of my own." the man replied.
The soldier nods and leaves the man standing in the apartment alone. The man begins to search Cindy's bedroom, but finds nothing. Finally he goes to the back bedroom, which is Max's. He searches the drawers but finds nothing in the dresser. He moves to the side table and finds a pile of pictures lying on top. The first picture is of max and Logan hugging. The man takes the picture and smiles maliciously. As he begins to leave the apartment he sees the note Logan had written to Cindy on the counter. He takes that as well. He steps over the debris of the broken makeshift coffee table and leaves the apartment in ruins.
Outside he is standing next to a military vehicle. He dials a number on his cell phone and we hear a voice of a woman on the other end.
"Did you get her?" the woman asks
"No but I think I know who she is with. I will find her." replies the man
"You do that white. We need her." and the woman hangs up.
Aims white steps into the back of the military vehicle and it drives off.
