Chapter 6: Operation Get Friends Back: part 3
AN: I should probably mention now that I suck at fighting scenes, so please go easy on me!

By the way: "Blah" is talking "Blah" is thinking/dreaming. "Blah" is the Voice speaking to Max. "Blah" is my Yami talking. Make sure to do the opposite of whatever she tells you to do. Yami N. "Stay in school kids, don't do drugs, get a good job, and don't become serial killers!" Except that. Listen to her with that message.

Humor fic: 10 reasons why I should never have Sake
1) I'll throw grenades everywhere. (Shows me tossing grenades to people like its confetti. "Happy New Year's people's!" I would shout.)
2) I'll bang my head over and over and over again on something until I have an I.Q. equal to a garden hose and I start to say really random things. (Shows me rapidly hitting head against the wall. Stars are shown around my head. "Oh, I see Great-grandpa waving at me at the end of a tunnel with a bright light. I hope it's not a train about to hit me. Hi Great-grandpa! FINLAND!")
3)I'll poke you obsessively. (Show me next to you, poking you on your arm over and over and over and over and over. And you'll curse me out. I'll then cry and drown you with my tears.)
4) I'll pass out and my Yami will take the chance by taking over my body and going on a killing rampage. (Shows her with a chainsaw laughing like the maniac that she is.)
5)One word: Hangover.
6)Drinking runs in the family so by the time I pass out, I'll have had maybe twenty bottles of the stuff. You can let your minds wander on what I do. I sure don't remember what I do. I'm sure that my family won't remember either.
7) I rob a bank with the old fashion pantyhose covering my head and give the money to my really, really, really, really poor school and blame it on our rival school. When I'm caught I'll say "How ja know it was me? I had the pantyhose on!" The officer would say, "You weren't wearing it on your head you idiot. You had it on your legs!"
8) I'll decide to stalk some random person on the street.
9) I'll rape someone, somehow. Yes, I am a girl. Just don't ask. It's for the sake of the fic.
10) Finally, I'll think that I can fly and jump off my house and die. The no more stories for you guys!

Last time on YuGiOh to the Maximum:
"Welcome to the club Kaiba, we're all freaks here." Said a sarcastic Fang as he reviled his wings. The others followed.
"So it looks like I was right again." Said a smug Kaiba.
"Yeah don't rub it in. We gotta find the rest of the gang." Said an annoyed Iggy. That's when the Flock heard a familiar voice behind them.
"Why hello guys. How long has it been?" Asked Jeb.
0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0
"Apparently, it hasn't been long enough Jeb. Now where are our friends you bastard!" Max shouted. Jeb started to laugh.
"You always had the shortest temper Max. As for your friends, they're right here." Jeb pulled out a remote and pushed a button. The left wall spun around to reveal four tanks like the ones that Max was in when she was kidnapped two years ago. Inside were their naked friends, except the guys had on boxer and Tea had underwear and a bra on. That tank cut off all of their senses, but they were still trying to escape by banging on the glass. But the most notable thing is that all of them were changed; Yugi now claws and fox ears barely visible due to his hair. Tea now had a striped tail and razor claws. Tristan now had gills on his neck and a shark fin on the back of his head. And Joey had gotten only one change; he had gotten black wings.
"Oh, and I believe that you may know these two." He snapped his fingers and Ari came in, holding Nudge and Mokuba. For some reason, Nudge couldn't faze out of Ari's arms.
"Mokuba! I swear that if you hurt him, you will all go through hell and back." Shouted Kaiba. He took a deep breathe and blew out fire at Ari. Unfortunately, Kaiba's aim isn't the best in the world, and he missed. Luckily, the fire grazed Ari's arms and he let go of Nudge and Mokuba. With the flock together, they all got in fighting stances. Ari laughed.
"I'd like ta see you at least try to kill me this time Max." He said as he transformed. He snapped his fingers, and around fifty Erasers entered the room. Now Kaiba got into a fighting stance.
"If we die, I want you all to know that I always hated you all more than the geek patrol." Said Kaiba. The Flock did the ever-popular anime sweat drop.
"Ya know what, just die Kaiba." Said Iggy.
"ATTACK! Shouted Ari. With that, it was a stampede of Erasers. Gazzy and Angel were fighting together. An Eraser was about to hit Gazzy, but he ducked and swung his legs under the Erasers legs, introducing the monsters face to the floor. Angel did a shish-kabob like kick under another Erasers chin and sent him into dream world. Then two Erasers started running towards her. She jumped up, did a split in mid-air, kicking the two beings. They got back up and she attempted to punch one. He grabbed her arm and swung her into Gazzy as he was holding up against another Eraser. They knocked into each other. Gazzy groaned, but both of the got back up and started to fight again.
Iggy was also doing the best that he could against the wolf hybrids. It was around a month ago that he could feel vibrations in the Earth or whatever the surface that they were on. Because of this, it was like he could see where his enemies were. And right now a bulky Eraser was charging towards him. The enemies head was within reach so he took the chance by grabbing the beast's neck so that the head was in between his arm and arm pit, and tossed the heavy Eraser over his shoulder. He turned to face the rest of the Erasers and charged at them.
Nudge was an expert in Southern Praying Mantis style of fighting. It just came naturally to her. The power was in the arms and less in the legs. With just a few jabs in the right places, she could knock an Eraser out no problem. That is until one Eraser snuck up behind her and held on to her arms with some kind of gloves that made sure that she couldn't faze out. Another Eraser took this chance to start to punch her. After he pulled his hand back, ready to punch, Nudge took the chance to push her legs up to the Erasers neck and snap it. Then, she kicked the Eraser that was holding her where the sun don't shine that often.
Fang was having a bit of trouble. The enemies had decided on dog-piling him. But, courtesy of his super-strength, he held all of them, maybe around ten of them, above his head and threw them against a wall. They got back up again and ran towards him. He grabbed some of the medal that was part of the floor and ripped it up so that there was a giant hole in the floor. The Erasers fell into it and Fang closed the hole up. The School was literally their homes and their graves now.
All that was left was Max who was being circled by Ari.
"So it comes down to this. It's a shame really. You an' I could have been together. But instead you went with the normal human." He lunged at her, but something was different about this attack. Ari now had claws like the famous adamantium claws of the Wolverine.
"Wow. I give Jeb a two for originallity." Max said with the fine art of sarcasim in her voice. Ari rolled his eyes.
"It's not like I wanted them. After Dad saw the X-men movies and saw how much I look like the Wolverine, he knew I just had have my own pair of claws. And then he tricked me into getting them. But they're useful to kill you!" He lunged at Max and managed to scrape one of his claws against max's flesh. She winced in pain. Even though it was just a scrape, it still hurt.
"Ok then, if that's how it's gonna be, then so be it!" Max said as she gathered electricity in her hand, ready to fire. Ari smiled.
"Real feisty, that's why I like you Max." Max made a disgusted look on her face.
"Yea right. You're really what? Ten years old? I'm sixteen Ari. I'm just a little kid crush." She said as she tossed a bolt at him. He quickly dodged it.
"You've gotten slower Max. Maybe falling in love with a normal human did that to you." Max snarled at Ari. Then she got an idea.
"Don't forget Ari, at one point, YOU were a 'normal human' too." That annoyed him. A LOT. He sung his claws at Max in anger. She dodged it and ran away.
"GET BACK HERE!" Ari shouted. Max did an akanbee (1) directed at Ari with a 'bleh'. Now he was pissed. Sure, he wasn't Japanese, but he knew what it meant.
"Oh… Now you die Max." He said as he swung at Max. She smirked.
"Perfect." She thought as she moved away from the claws. Ari was surprised to see that his claws didn't go into Max, but the control box for the tanks that held her friends. Now, since Ari's claws are made of metal and since the control box has electricity, the author really does hope that the reader knows what happens. For those who failed science: Ari was electrocuted.
"A-A-A-U-U-U-U-G-G-G-G-G-H-H-H-H!" He shouted in pain as the electricity went through his body. When he collapsed, the tanks released her friends. They took off their breathing masks and stood up. They were shaky at first, but then they became more stable. Joey was the first to speak.
"You got my message Max." She smiled and ran up to Joey. He pulled her into a giant bear hug.
"I'm so glad that all of you guys are safe. I'm sorry about all of this." Max said in Joey's arms.
"It's okay Max." He leaned in for a kiss, but was interrupted by Ari saying,
"Oh, how touching. It makes me want to puke. Oh, did I forget to show a little feature of my claws?" He pointed his claws at the two, and the claws shot off of his hand. And they were headed for Joey.
"NO!" shouted Max as she jumped in front of the claws. Everything from then happened in slow motion. The claws went into her chest and she coughed up blood. Everyone had a scared look on their faces. She collapsed and blood continued to leak from her mouth and her wound. Joey snapped his head to look at Ari, who still had a shocked look on his face as he shouted,
"HOW COULD YOU? YOU BASTARD! I'LL KILL YOU!" as he shouted, everything in the room started to shake a bit. That's when they heard,
"P-please…d-don't k-k-ill 'im…bro-ther. H-he's m-my bro-brother." Max stuttered. More blood poured from her mouth as she spoke.
"He's your brother?" Asked a shocked Yugi.
"Yes. She and Ari are both of my children." Said Jeb as he stepped out from a hiding place.
"Where have you been?" asked Fang, who was now putting pressure on Max's wound to slow down the bleeding. Max had attempted to slow his bleeding when he was hurt, and it was now time for him to return the favor.
"I was hiding. If all of you died, someone had to be alive to tell the tale." He said calmly.
"WHAT!" shouted Max. Blood was now pouring out of her like Niagara Falls after a flood. She moaned.
"Max! Don't shout, you'll make your wounds even worse!" scolded Fang.
"But it's true. Max and Ari are siblings. Their Mother died giving birth to Ari, so I kept them being siblings a secret."
"So how did Max know?" asked an angry Tristan. His teeth were looking abnormally sharp now…
"Easy; when she killed Ari the first time, as she was flying away I shouted, "You killed my son! You killed your brother!'" he answered.
"Oh yeah, now I remember." Said Nudge.
"Hello! Max is dying here! I need bandages, STAT!" shouted an angry Fang. Max was about to pass out.
"Max, if you see a dark tunnel with a bright light at the end of it, DON'T GO TOWARDS THE LIGHT!" Shouted Nudge. Tea, Tristan, Yugi, Kaiba, and Joey walked towards Ari and Jeb.
"You put my brother in danger and you made me into a freak…" Kaiba started. Tea continued,
"You put us through torture, put us in those tanks, and made us go through different kinds of experiments…"Tristan followed with,
"You hurst us even though we'd never done anything to you," Yugi continued with,
"You hurt our friends…" Joey finished with,
"And we think you just killed Max, Ari. There's no way you bastards are gonna get away with this!" Tea's fingernails became claws and her pupils became slits. Three monsters were behind Yugi now, yet they were see-through. Kaiba's mouth started to emit smoke. Pipes and other random, yet deadly objects started hovering around Joey. (2)
"Shit" both Ari and Jeb said. The authoress will let the reader decide what they do to Ari and Jeb, as long as the outcome is them both on the floor looking like the came back from hell and went back and both of them are unconscious. When they were done, Kaiba ran to Mokuba while everyone ran to see how Max is doing.
"We're just lucky that we're freaks. It helps to have a fast healing rate. By the way, you guys are gonna have a fast healing rate now that your experiments. But Max will still need stitches. Let's get her to our place. Tea, do you know how to use a needle?" Iggy said as his sensitive fingers wandered over Max's skin as he was inspecting the wound.
"I took a sewing course when I was in my last year of middle school, but that's all."
"It's good enough. Joey, Kaiba, do you guys think that you can fly?"
"I don't think so. My body's still not used to having wings. I can't even move them." Said Joey as he attempted to move his wings. He failed miserably.
"What about you Kaiba?" Tristan asked.
"No good, like the mutt here my body isn't used to having these wings." Said a monotone Kaiba.
"Oh boy…Ok, Gazzy, Iggy, Nudge, and Angel, remember how to carjack a car?" Asked Fang. They all nodded their heads.
"So go carjack a car then! And make it a big one! Oh, and Tea, you go with them. The last thing that we need is a car crash and attracting unwanted attention. Yugi, Mokuba, and Tristan, can you guys try to find some gauze and bandages? A first-aid kit would be nice. Even some ripped up T-shirt strips would do to make bandages. Kaiba, you and Joey go get some water to clean Max's wounds, we don't want them to get infected. Rubbing alcohol would be the best, but normal water would do. And please don't fight. Ok people, we got a dying girl now MOVE!" Commanded Fang. He said it with such authority that not even Kaiba questioned.
"Hang in there Max. Like Nudge said, 'DON'T GO TOWARDS THE BRIGHT LIGHT MAX!'shouted Fang. Max was already passed out as he was talking to her. What she saw was amazing.

Dream sequence
Max was indeed flying towards a bright light. She felt free for the first time in her life. But before she got to the light, someone stopped her. It was a woman. She had light brown hair and deep brown eyes. She was wearing a white robe and hade angel wings and a halo over her head.
"Who are you?" Max asked. The woman smiled at her.
"Max, I am Joy Batcheldor (3) I am your mother" Max was taken a back at this.
"So I guess that I'm dead right?" Her mother continued to smile as she spoke.
"No. You're on the borderline of death and life right now. THE LORD has sent me to make sure that you go back to life. It's not time for you to go yet Max. Go back to life and live it to the fullest." There was just a few questions that were bugging Max.
"Why did you agree to make me into an experiment?" she asked. Her mother stopped smiling at this.
"Jeb threatened to kill you the minute that you were born if I didn't agree to his terms."
"But why didn't you get a divorce?" Max asked.
"Because I loved your father very much Max. I couldn't bring myself to live without him."
"Joy" Max started, but was cut off with,
"I am your mother Max. You should at least call me Mom."
"Ok…Mom…What did you originally name me? I mean, Max can't really be my real name, right?"
"Correct. Your real name is Merle Batcheldor (4). It was your grandmother's name and it also means 'Falcon'. I had always thought that it was a bit ironic. But Jeb…when he took you to the Lab, he never called you by it. He only called you Maximum."
"Did…did you love me Mom?" Max asked nervously. Her mother pulled her into a hug.
"I loved you before you were even born. I still love you no matter what Merle. No matter what you do or did in your past, present and future, I will always love you. And remember, I am always in here." She said as she pointed to Max's heart.
"Thank you Mom." It was then that her mother got farther away from her.
"Looks like it's time for you to go back to life Max. Do me a favor, if you see Ari, tell him that I also love and miss him." She said with a final smile on her face. Then, everything was black.

Now I shall rule the world with the help of my brother, Yami Bakura! MUWAHAHAH!
Yami! Get back into the earrings! Yami B., get your ass back in the ring before I paint the ring pink!
You're no fun.
Like I have said before, since it's coming from you, that's a good thing. On with the story.
Max is now awake!
"Max? Are you awake?" said a familiar voice.
"Hi Angel." Max said in a weak voice.
"Guys! She's awake!" shouted Angel. Everyone came in as a stampede. Joey and Tristan even got stuck in the door way. Even Kaiba was there.
"Where am I?" Max asked. Yugi was the one who answered.
"You're in your house Max. You're really lucky that Kaiba brought over some medical supplies and that Tea's mom was a nurse who taught Tea everything that she knows."
"So did you see a bright light at the end of a tunnel?" asked Gazzy.
"Kinda. I…I saw my mom. She stopped me from going to heaven. She told me that it wasn't my time to go yet. So I came back. How long have I been out?"
"Max…you've been out for two weeks." Answered Kaiba.

Author Notes
(1) An akanbee is an insult in Japan. It's when you pull down your lower eyelid and stick out your tongue, while the other eye is closed. It's normally used by younger people.
(2) Ok, the powers are as followed: Tea can grow tiger claws and has the instincts of a cat. Yugi can make illusions and has heightened senses. Joey can read minds and move objects with his mind. Kaiba can breathe fire and has super-man like vision or microscopic vision. Tristan can breathe underwater and his teeth can bite through anything.
(3) I think that's how you spell Jeb's last name. I can't find my Maximum Ride books. I just hope that my sisters didn't burn them.
(4) I didn't think that Max was her real name, so I gave her a new one. 'Merle' means 'Falcon'. Since her mother already knew that Max would have wings, she wanted her daughter to fly with the grace, yet the air of power that a falcon has.
