Chapter 13 Arguments
"Max." They whispered.
Time seemed to stop as silence assured through out the apartment. The seconds ticked by as they stared at each other. Finally their trance like stare was broken by Jondy as she ran up to Max and threw her arms around her. Max was a little shocked but quickly got over it as she hugged her sister back.
"Maxie." Jondy whispered as tears threatened to spill out of her eyes.
"Jondy." Max replied happy to finally see her sister again. Syl, Krit, and Zane walked over to Max and also joined into the hug. When they finally let go of each other they looked at each other. "Come on sit down, we have a lot of things to talk about." Max said and lead them to Logan's couch. "You don't mind do you?" She asked. Logan smiled at her and shook his head. She smiled back at him.
"I'll just leave you guys alone for the moment and let you catch up." He said feeling awkward about being there. He stood up and walked away from the siblings so they could be alone.
"Wow it's great to see you guys again." Max said looking at her siblings.
"We know the feeling." Jondy said. "So are you and Logan like 'that' or friends?" Jondy asked, her curiosity getting the better of her.
Max shrugged. "Sorta." She said. Jondy only nodded. "Anyways why are you guys here?" She asked.
"You don't want us here?" Jondy asked playfully. Max smiled at here and rolled her eyes.
Krit and Syl were still looking at her an awe. "I don't get it." Syl said. Zane, Jondy, and Max all looked over at her.
"Get what?" Max asked.
"Lydecker, he said you were dead." Krit said.
Max looked at him then at the rest of her siblings before looking down at the ground, tears swelling up in her eyes. "Max." Jondy said touching her shoulder gentle. "Don't cry." She told her. "It's ok, you can tell us later." Jondy said looking at the others.
"It's ok baby sister, you don't have to tell us right now." Zane said as he put an arm around her shoulder, she nodded her head and sniffed.
"I'm hungry, any body else hungry?" Jondy asked suddenly. Zane, Syl, and Krit all rolled their eyes while Max laughed at her sister.
"What?" Jondy asked.
(Montana)
Adam yawned as he laid in bed trying to go to sleep. He was tired, but no matter how hard he tried he just couldn't go to sleep. He guessed it had something to do with his flashback earlier that day when he was out in the fields with Buddy and Jack. Luckily for him neither Jack or Buddy noticed what had happened. He sighed and put a hand behind his head as he stared up at he ceiling.
As soon as his work was done, however he went and called Kellie telling her what had happened. She had listened like always and talked to him about what it could have meant, and that her brother Kevin was looking into the accident he was in. 'I can always count on Kellie.' He thought and smiled. Another yawned escaped him as he continued to think about her, slowly his eyes closed and fell into a sleep full of memories.
~A young man in his late teens sat on his bed, pictures of the Virgin Mary posted on his walls and crosses at different places. His eyes were empty, not like that of which they used to be. He looked at the man who had just entered his room.
"Your foster family treating you ok?" The blonde man asked.
"Yes, but it doesn't matter I'm almost old enough to leave big brother." The young man said. "The lady will protect me." He whispered softly.
The blonde looked around his room and shook his head. Sometimes his little brother unnerved him with his obsession with her. He looked at him and pulled up a chair and sat down in it. "Ben, the blue lady is something we made up as kids, she's not real." He said.
Ben looked at him his eye wide. "Yes she is. She protects us, protects me. We can't just forget about what she did for us." He said angrily.
The blonde looked at him. "Ben you have to stop this!" He told his little brother.
"No I'm not going to just forget her, I have faith in her. Do you?" He asked a wild glint in his eyes.~
Adam's eyes snapped open. He was breathing a little harder then normal. He sat up and looked at his clock. Funny how time seems to pass when your sleeping. He ran a shaky hand through his hair.
"Ben." He whispered. The name seemed oddly familiar, but what was he to him. "Kellie's going to have a field day out of this." He said to himself and rubbed his eyes. He quickly threw on some clothes and walked out the door. The cool night air was oddly comforting to him as he walked over to his truck to go to Kellie's. He sighed, his dream/flashback still fresh in his mind as he began to drive to Kellie's.
(Kellie's place)
Adam quickly walked down the hall to her apartment and knocked on the door. He knew she was still asleep, I mean anyone would be at four thirty in the morning. He knocked again and heard movement in the apartment and a loud ow and the grumbling as the door started to unlock.
"Do you know what time it is you crazy fuck?" She asked her eyes closed, obviously irritated for being woke up.
"Four thirty." Adam answered. Kellie's eyes popped open and she looked at him.
"Couldn't wait to see me aye?" She asked as she let him in. She ran a hand through her messy curls as she closed the door. "What's up?" She asked looking at him.
He looked at her and sighed. "Flashback." He simple said.
"In your sleep?" she asked. And got a nod. "Ok, it's not that odd, there has been cases of it to happen before." She mumbled. "So what was it?" She asked.
"Ben." He said.
She looked at him oddly. "Huh?"
"That was his name." He said. "Ben."
"Hold up, you know the other person's name?" She asked. "I'm guessing the same blonde guy was in it right? So what was the relationship between them?" She asked.
"They were brothers." He said.
"So you have a brother named Ben, that's my guess." She said. "Was there anything else?" She asked.
"There was pictures of the Virgin Mary all over the walls and crucifixes." He told her.
Kellie raised an eyebrow. "So he's one of those religious people whose obsessed with the Virgin Mary." She said. "That's weird and sorta disturbing." She added.
"And he kept calling her the lady, and then the blonde called her the blue lady. And that they made her up as kids, and they were having an argument about it, and then Ben asked if the other had faith in her still, and got a glint in his eyes." He said.
Kellie frowned. "Ok that's kinda strange." She said and ran her hand through her hair again. "So you might have brother name's Ben whose a crack pot obsessed with the Virgin Mary who yawl used to call the blue lady as kids. Yea ok." Kellie said. "You're starting to remember names that's a big step, then just flashbacks. Did they get any un-fuzzier?" She asked.
"Un-fuzzier?" He raised an eyebrow and she grinned at him. "Yea, a little."
"Another good thing." Kellie said. She yawned again and smiled at Adam. "How about you stay here for the rest of the night and get some sleep on the sofa, while I go and get some sleep on my bed." She said walking over to him and kissing him. He kissed back and she smiled against his lips before pulling back. "Night Adam." She said walking toward her bedroom.
"Night Kellie."
(Seattle)
Syl, Krit, Jondy, and Zane sat in their hotel room talking amongst themselves. They were to met Max today at Logan's apartment as soon as she got off work. They were excited about seeing her again, but also nervous. They still had to found out about Zack, and they didn't know how she would take it.
"We should just bring it up and get it over with. The longer we wait the harder it will be." Syl said as she leaned against Krit who rested his chin on top of her head.
"Syl's right." Krit said and got an agreement from his brother and sister. "Ok so when we meet her tonight, we'll bring it up, and get all of our answers." He said and the others nodded their heads.
(Later that night)
Max sat in Logan's apartment waiting for her siblings to come. She looked at Logan from across the room and smiled at him. "Thanks for inviting them." She said.
"Anything for you Max." He said.
Max smiled at him, wishing that she could touch him again and let him know how much he actually meant to her. Logan was thinking along the same thoughts, but they both knew they couldn't.
"I still can't believe they're here." Max said.
"But they are and that's all that matters." He told her.
"Yeah. Jondy's changed a lot. She used to be so quiet and now... I guess we've all changed, huh?" She asked.
"That's what happens when you grow up Max. But no matter what they're still your brothers and sisters." He told her. She smiled at him. Before she could answer him there was knocking at his door.
Max went and answered it and smiled when she saw her siblings. She gestured them in and led the way back to the couch and chairs. Syl and Krit sat down beside of each other, and Jondy and Zane sat beside of each other, while Max sat in a chair.
"Max." Krit said. "After the attack on Manticore what happened?" He asked. They had agreed earlier that he would be the one to bring it up.
Max looked at him and the rest of then and then at Logan who nodded his head in encouragement. She sighed and closed her eyes. "I was shot and I died." She said. "And when they tried to bring back they couldn't and Zack..." She trailed off a tear slipping down her cheek.
"Max." Jondy said quietly. Syl was gripping Krit's hand tightly, afraid of what her little sister would say next.
"My heart was too badly damaged so they had to transplant one." She whispered.
"And Zack?" Zane asked.
Max closed her eyes. "I needed a donor and they didn't have any so Zack... Zack gave me his." She said quietly. Dead silence filled the room, you could probable hear a needle drop if one did. A tear slipped down Jondy's cheek, Zane's eyes were closed and Syl's was looking at Max willing her to say they had a donor. Krit just sat there.
"So Zack's... H-he's dead?" Jondy asked her voice wavering. More tears spilled down her cheeks. "No he can't be dead, Max tell me he's not dead." Jondy cried.
Max breathed in and looked at Logan. He nodded his head. They did deserve to know the truth. "No he's not dead exactly." She said. All eyes shot to her.
"What do you mean, not exactly?" Zane asked
"Manticore was undergoing a new experiment with cybernetic implants. And they replaced all of Zack's missing organs with biosynthetic ones." Max explained.
"Ok so he's alive, where is he?" Jondy asked, a little twinkle shining in her eyes again.
Max sighed. "That's not all. Because he took a bullet point blank to the head it affected his memory. They had to replace it with a cybernetic implant." Max said. "And when I found him, he was running with steelheads, he didn't know who I was until I showed him my barcode." Max said.
"Ok all we have to do is show him our barcodes and then we're back on track." Jondy said.
Max shook her head. "No after that he started to get his memory back and something went wrong and he went after Logan. He wanted to kill him." Max told them.
They swallowed, not knowing what to think now. "Obviously you stopped him because Logan is still alive." Syl said.
"What happened? Where's Zack Max?" Jondy asked softly looking at her sister.
"I had to stop him." She whispered. "We fought a little bit until he threw me off him and I hit a electrical box, and there was water so... It was the only way I could stop him. It wiped his memory clean." She finished.
Jondy looked at Max with wide eyes. "And Zack?" She asked.
"We gave him a new identity and everything." Max said.
"Where is he?" Jondy asked.
"Why?" Max asked.
The others look at her. "Because he's my brother and I need to know where he is." Jondy said.
"What are you going to do?" Max asked her.
"Find him." Jondy said a bit coldly.
"Jondy you can't!" Max said.
"Why not?" Jondy asked. The other three siblings, including Logan watched neither jumping into the argument that was about to start.
"Because it will be just like last time! He'll try and kill Logan again. We do you think I sent him away?!" She asked.
"Because he was inconvenience that you didn't want to bother with maybe." Jondy bit out angrily. The other three eye's opened wide at what she said. Max was looking at her, shock and anger showing in her eyes.
"How can you say that? I was doing what was best for everyone." Max ground out.
"What was best for you and Logan is more like it." Jondy growled. Zane touched her arm, but Jondy shrugged him off. "Think about it Max, a super human with amnesia who has no idea who or what he is trying to live a normal life, things could go seriously wrong." Jondy snapped at her sister. "You may not need him Max, but we do! Did you ever think about that? About how much we would need him?" Jondy asked. Max looked at her tears in her eyes. She didn't say anything. "No you didn't."
"She did what she thought was right." Logan butted in.
"Well she did wrong." Jondy said. "And it would be wise to but out of this. It doesn't involve you." She said.
"You would have done the same thing." Logan said.
Jondy growled under her breath. "How the hell would you know what I would have done. You don't know jack shit about me." She snapped before standing up and walking toward the door. "And just for the record, no I wouldn't have." She said before walking out. Tears streamed down Max's face.
Max looked at the faces of her siblings. "I'm sorry."
Krit went over to her and hugged her. "Don't worry about it Maxie. I know you were just trying to do the right thing." He assured her.
"Jondy hates me now." She whispered.
"No she doesn't. She's just confused and upset right now. But she doesn't hate you Max." Zane said trying to comfort his sister.
Max looked at Syl who had tears slipping down her cheeks. "Syl..."
"Don't worry baby sister." Syl said reaching out and grabbing Max's hand. "Everything will ok." She let go of her and stood up. "I'm going to go and find Jondy, I'll be back." She said and walked out the door.
She didn't have to go far, considering Jondy was sitting on the floor outside the door. Syl slid down the wall beside of her and leaned back. "Hey." Syl said laying a comforting hand on Jondy's knee.
"What she did was wrong." Jondy said softly.
"I know Jondy, but she tired to do what was right. And she thought she did." Syl said.
"She took our brother away Syl." She said. "And I hate her for it."
"Oh Jondy you don't mean that." Syl said.
Jondy looked at her, her blue eyes holding tears and anger. "I know I don't, because I can't hate her. But I am upset with her." Jondy said and leaned her head on her sisters shoulder, and Syl laid her head on top of hers. "I'm going to find him Syl no matter what." She whispered.
"I know Jondy, so am I." Syl told her.
"What if she doesn't tell us?" Jondy asked.
Syl didn't say anything for a moment. "She will." She said.
"How do you know?" Jondy asked.
"You don't sound like the Jondy I know." Syl commented to her. Jondy shrugged. "Come on, let's go back in there and find out what we need to find out." Syl said.
Jondy nodded her head and stood up. "Max hates me for what I said doesn't she?" She asked.
Syl smirked. "No Jondy she doesn't. Actually she's worried about you hating her." She said as she opened the door. Syl walked in first and then Jondy. The air was tense as they took a seat again. Max and Jondy didn't look at each other, they kept their eyes trained on the floor.
"Ok listen up this is what's going to happen, your going to tell us where Zack is, and we're going to go and help him, and make sure he doesn't come anywhere near Seattle or Logan." Syl explained.
Max sighed and looked at her siblings. "Fine." She looked at Logan to see his raised eyebrow, but nodded once he understood.
"So where is he?" Zane asked.
"Montana." Logan said. "We sent him to ranch that belongs to Buddy Hudson." (Did they ever say his real last name?) "There he thinks he's been working for three years." He said.
"Zack is on a ranch?" Jondy asked. Her lips twitched upwards. "Zack's a cowboy?" She asked. "Is he milking cows too?" She asked and giggled at the thought. "Zack's a cowboy." She and giggled some more at the thought.
Zane looked at her funny. "You need help you know that?" He said and tousled her hair some. She stuck her tongue out at him.
"So we're going to Montana then?" She asked Syl, Krit, and Zane.
They nodded her head. "I'm coming with you." Max said softly. They looked at her, and Jondy raised an eyebrow on her directions.
"Max are you sure?" Logan asked, remembering what Zack thought about him and her last time. "He could mistake the relationship between you two for something else again." He said, but knowing she was set on going, and how important this was to her he wasn't going to try and stop her.
"Relationship?" Jondy asked confused.
Max sighed. "He thought we were like 'that'." She said and shrugged.
"He loves you like 'that'?" Jondy asked. "And you just realized that?" She asked.
Max shrugged. "But I need to be there. I need to help set things straight ya know." Max explained.
"Sure cool with us." Zane said.
"Well at least we know that there is still some people out there looking for redemption for their action." Jondy said dramatically throwing an arm around Zane. Zane rolled his eyes at her, before she bounced out of her seat and on the floor.
"Is she always like this?" Max asked.
"Oh yea." Zane said as he watched her bounce around Logan's apartment.

"You may not need him Max, but we do! Did you ever think about that? About how much we would need him?" Jondy asked. Max looked at her tears in her eyes. She didn't say anything. "No you didn't."
"She did what she thought was right." Logan butted in.
"Well she did wrong." Jondy said. "And it would be wise to but out of this. It doesn't involve you." She said.
"You would have done the same thing." Logan said.
Jondy growled under her breath. "How the hell would you know what I would have done. You don't know jack shit about me." She snapped before standing up and walking toward the door. "And just for the record, no I wouldn't have." She said before walking out. Tears streamed down Max's face.
Max looked at the faces of her siblings. "I'm sorry."
Krit went over to her and hugged her. "Don't worry about it Maxie. I know you were just trying to do the right thing." He assured her.
"Jondy hates me now." She whispered.
"No she doesn't. She's just confused and upset right now. But she doesn't hate you Max." Zane said trying to comfort his sister.
Max looked at Syl who had tears slipping down her cheeks. "Syl..."
"Don't worry baby sister." Syl said reaching out and grabbing Max's hand. "Everything will ok." She let go of her and stood up. "I'm going to go and find Jondy, I'll be back." She said and walked out the door.
She didn't have to go far, considering Jondy was sitting on the floor outside the door. Syl slid down the wall beside of her and leaned back. "Hey." Syl said laying a comforting hand on Jondy's knee.
"What she did was wrong." Jondy said softly.
"I know Jondy, but she tired to do what was right. And she thought she did." Syl said.
"She took our brother away Syl." She said. "And I hate her for it."
"Oh Jondy you don't mean that." Syl said.
Jondy looked at her, her blue eyes holding tears and anger. "I know I don't, because I can't hate her. But I am upset with her." Jondy said and leaned her head on her sisters shoulder, and Syl laid her head on top of hers. "I'm going to find him Syl no matter what." She whispered.
"I know Jondy, so am I." Syl told her.
"What if she doesn't tell us?" Jondy asked.
Syl didn't say anything for a moment. "She will." She said.
"How do you know?" Jondy asked.
"You don't sound like the Jondy I know." Syl commented to her. Jondy shrugged. "Come on, let's go back in there and find out what we need to find out." Syl said.
Jondy nodded her head and stood up. "Max hates me for what I said doesn't she?" She asked.
Syl smirked. "No Jondy she doesn't. Actually she's worried about you hating her." She said as she opened the door. Syl walked in first and then Jondy. The air was tense as they took a seat again. Max and Jondy didn't look at each other, they kept their eyes trained on the floor.
"Ok listen up this is what's going to happen, your going to tell us where Zack is, and we're going to go and help him, and make sure he doesn't come anywhere near Seattle or Logan." Syl explained.
Max sighed and looked at her siblings. "Fine." She looked at Logan to see his raised eyebrow, but nodded once he understood.
"So where is he?" Zane asked.
"Montana." Logan said. "We sent him to ranch that belongs to Buddy Hudson." (Did they ever say his real last name?) "There he thinks he's been working for three years." He said.
"Zack is on a ranch?" Jondy asked. Her lips twitched upwards. "Zack's a cowboy?" She asked. "Is he milking cows too?" She asked and giggled at the thought. "Zack's a cowboy." She and giggled some more at the thought.
Zane looked at her funny. "You need help you know that?" He said and tousled her hair some. She stuck her tongue out at him.
"So we're going to Montana then?" She asked Syl, Krit, and Zane.
They nodded her head. "I'm coming with you." Max said softly. They looked at her, and Jondy raised an eyebrow on her directions.
"Max are you sure?" Logan asked, remembering what Zack thought about him and her last time. "He could mistake the relationship between you two for something else again." He said, but knowing she was set on going, and how important this was to her he wasn't going to try and stop her.
"Relationship?" Jondy asked confused.
Max sighed. "He thought we were like 'that'." She said and shrugged.
"He loves you like 'that'?" Jondy asked. "And you just realized that?" She asked.
Max shrugged. "But I need to be there. I need to help set things straight ya know." Max explained.
"Sure cool with us." Zane said.
"Well at least we know that there is still some people out there looking for redemption for their action." Jondy said dramatically throwing an arm around Zane. Zane rolled his eyes at her, before she bounced out of her seat and on the floor.
"Is she always like this?" Max asked.
"Oh yea." Zane said as he watched her bounce around Logan's apartment.
