Chapter 7

A/N: Hi, sorry that I haven't updated in a while, I haven't really had time. And another thing, I seriously have no idea how I am ending this. Ok, well, here's chapter 7.

The next morning I woke up feeling like my head was going to explode. It was dark, and nobody was awake yet. So I just laid there, crumpled on the floor, clutching my head, hoping that the pain would stop soon. I moaned painfully.

"Max?" I half opened my eye. I knew that Fang would be by my side, he was always with me when I had these brain attacks. I looked around, searching for his voice. But when I looked to my left, I wasn't staring into Fang's face; it was Demon's. He looked both confused and alarmed. He didn't know what was happening to me.

"Max?" He said, this time a little louder. I tried to answer him, but couldn't.

"Max! Can you hear me?" He yelled, inches away from my ear. I can't anymore, I thought. You probably blew out my eardrum. Him yelling in my ear really didn't help my headache. I saw Fang sit up, and he immediately rushed over to me.

"Max," He said soothingly. I tried to relax, but every time I did, pain would come rushing through my skull. And let me tell you, it hurt like hell. Gradually, the pain seeped away. I slowly let go of my head.

"Max, what did you see?" Fang asked softly. I thought back. All I remembered was people saying Max.

"I didn't see anything," I said. That was kind of weird, because usually I at least saw little swirly patterns, or something. Oh, well. It was over, and I was happy. Well, as happy as a fourteen year old mutant on the run can be.

"Well, okay." I said as I got up to leave, only to fall hard on the ground. I guess I was still a little weak from that last brain explosion, or whatever you want to call it. I blushed, embarrassed. Fang smirked at me.

"Need some help?" He asked.

"No, I can..." I stood up warily, then fell again. This time Fang caught me.

"I think you do." He said. I scowled at him, making him smile wider. Demon just sat there, looking confused. I saw Fang glance over at him. I could tell that he still didn't trust him, even though he was his brother. How could he not trust his own brother?

"Where is it that you planned on going?" Fang asked me. Now that I thought about it, I didn't really know. It was quiet for a while.

"Uh, I was going to...fly! I was going to fly." I said, finally thinking of something, trying not to sound stupid.

"Good luck with that," I heard Fang mumble.

"What?" I said.

"You can't even walk, you idiot. How do you expect to fly?"

"Oh..." He had a point there. I realized that I was still leaning on Fang. I quickly stopped, trying to keep my balance. Fang looked at me for a while, then walked outside.

The others had started waking up, most of them were still half asleep, though.

"Hey, Ig." I said as he woke up.

"Hmm? Oh. Hey, Max." He let out a long yawn. Iggy sat up and rubbed his eyes. I went over by Angel, who was whispering silently to Celeste.

"Morning, Max." She said cheerfully.

"Hey, Ange." I said, ruffling her hair. "Want to get the others and go fly?"

"Ok," She said in her sweet little voice. We walked over to where everyone else was sitting. Nudge was jabbering about something, Gazzy was examining rocks, Iggy had decided to lie back down, and Pity was looking at a small piece of paper.

"What's that?" I asked her. Wordlessly, she handed me the little slip of paper. I was worried and confused as I read the letter.

Demon and I decided to fly. Won't be back for a while. See you then.

-Fang

Pity looked up at me, and I saw the same confused worried expression that I had on my face on her's.

"Hmm..." I wondered if I should be worried. I mean, Fang could take care of himself, but still...

"How long is a while?" Pity surprised me by speaking. I hadn't heard her voice before.

"I don't really know." I told her truthfully. By then, Nudge had realized that she was the only one talking, so she shut up. Gazzy stood up and kind of tripped on his little rock collection; sending them flying at the half-asleep Iggy.

"Gazzy, you idiot!" Iggy yelled furiously.

"Hey, who wants to fly?" I said, trying to avoid a major argument.

"I do!" Angel said. She tagged Iggy and squealed, "You're it!" She raced to the edge of the cliff and unfurled her wings. She really knew how to put Iggy into a good mood. Iggy started running towards me. I snapped out my wings and flew around to where Angel was. Everyone else followed.

"That's it," Iggy said, smiling. He took off, speeding towards Nudge, who was giggling hysterically. He finally got her, tagging her with the tip of his wing.

"Nooo!" Nudge squealed, and started chasing me.

A/N: Ok, peoples, did you like it? I'm sooo sorry that I've taken so much time to update! I have a bunch of chapters written, just not typed. I haven't been able to get to the computer, and I probably won't be adding any chapters soon. But I might, so, watch out for them! So I've just figured out that Fang/Max is Fax... I think that sounds so weird. No offence to the person that made it up, I'm just saying. I hate it that when I type "Gazzy," or "Iggy," It shows up misspelled. That annoys me so much... Well, please review my story! I love reviews! If anyone has any story ideas please tell me, cause I have no idea what the heck I am writing, I'm just making it up as I go along. I have no idea how I am going to end this, so again: if anyone has ideas, PLEASE tell them to me! (Unless you plan to use them in your own story, then you probably shouldn't tell me them.) Well, anyway, sorry for putting such a long A/N, its just that I'm, like, really bored right now. Well, I guess I'll stop writing... Hey! I can type another chapter, and write another A/N for that one! Yay! Bye peoples. Oh, wait. I just saw Pirates of the Carribean 2, and I think it's the BEST movie ever! That was totally random, but, whatever. Oh, if anyone has any info on the Maximum Ride movie, or the third book, please tell me! Everyone has probably stopped reading by now... If you are still reading this, congratulations! You are really cool, and, um... You rock!
