After a week Max began to wonder where Logan was and if she was safe from him. Everytime Max went outside with Zack she would always be clinging to his side, never wanting him to be to far away from her. Zack noticed this but didn't say anything. As she continued to act like this Alec and Cece began to notice and that cause all three X5's to worry.
They had never seen this side of Max before and didn't know what to do to help her. Max was what Alec like to call the queen bitch of the city, she never let anything or anyone get her down. Always had smart remarks to almost everything, never et anyone tell her what to do. She was confident, had a bitchy attitude which everyone loved, even normal. She did what she wanted, when she wanted and no one could tell her other wise. But that Max had been replaced with someone who was insecure, always needed reassurance, she had to fell like she was safe and not alone. She was quiet and didn't care if people say her emotions.
One day Max and Zack sat cuddled up the three piece suite watching a pre pulse film. Suddenly out of no where Max asked "Where's Logan?"
Zack thought carefully what to say not wanting the words to come out wrong and to have her scared again. He finally answered "Logan is at his penthouse. Max you have to understand that i thought you were dead when i say you sitting in that chair not moving, then i held out in my arms and all these emotions i've never felt before just shot through me and it was like i didn't care about anything but getting you home and keeping you and the baby safe...so i told Alec and Cece to lock Logan in his penthouse storage room where we could keep an eye on him and make sure he could get to you."
"Oh" Max replied simply she didn't know what else to say. Zack kissed her forehead he was about to speak again but Max cut in.
"Zack i..i want to see him." Max turned so she could see Zacks face. Then added "I want to see him not and ask why he did what he did. I have to know Zack. We can't keep him locked up in there forever, it's just not right"
"Maxie are you sure? It's not a pretty sight in there" Zack informed her as he thought back t Logans facies all over the place, the smell of that and blood mixed together.
"No, i have to" Max looked deep into his eyes and Zack nodded
"When do you want to go?" Zack asked
"Now" she answered and Zack knew Max would wan tto get it over and done with.
Max and Zack arrived at Logans penthouse just as Cece and Alec were unlocking the door. "Cece, Alec" Max called smiling not a proper Max smile but still a smile which was hard to get from her.
Cece turned and hugged Max and Zack then Alec did the same. They stepped through the door way and into the living area where the pc it. Max walked straight over to the pc and turned it on.
"Maxie what are you doing?" Alec asked as he walked up behind her.
"I'm going to delete everything about transgenics thats he's got in his computer and all his eyes only things" Max answered
Cece and Zack walked up behind Max and Alec "You got a plan?" Zack asked
"Yeah, i'm going to delete all the stuff about transgenics and all his eyes only stuff thats on his pc. I'm thinking of turning him over to White. I don't want to have to live in Seattle and worry about everytime i walk out the door if he'll try and hurt me and the baby again. What happens when my sons here and he's in crash Logan could walk right in there and take him" Max answered
"It's okay Max. I totally understand" Cece agreed and Alec nodded
"Don't worry he's not getting anywhere near our son" Zack placed a hand on her shoulder.
Zack, Cece and Alec went down into the storage room to talk to Logan before Max went down to see him. While they were down there Max was on the PC struggling to get through the password protected files.
"damn it" Max cursed and put her head in her hands.
Alec leaned against the door frame and looked at her " Aw what's the matter Maxie?" he asked
"I can't get passed these stupid passwords so i can delete the files" Max said in annoyance and pointed to the computer screen.
"Here let me try" Alec smirked at her and she hit him over the back of the head.
"That's more like the aggressive Maxie we know" Alec smiled as recently she was beginning to get back to her old ways at his comment Max stuck her tongue out at him. Making him laugh.
Max stood up and Alec at on the seat, while max wandered over to the window and looked out. Finally Alec cracked all the passwords and deleted everything in the computer. Cece and Zack appeared in the room. Suddenly Max felt sick and she ran to the bathroom.
"Max you okay honey?" Zack appeared by her side just as she was being sick, he pulled her hair out of her face and rubbed her back.
Cece appeared in the bathroom door way with a glass of water. "Here you go Maxie?" Cece handed her the glass which Max took.
"Thanks" Max answered and emptied the glass.
"You okay? We can do this some other day when your feeling up to it" Zack told her.
"No it's okay" she answered then added with a smile " Your little brat just wants to make me to feel like crap all day"
"Sorry about that you know i'd help if i could" Zack commented and Max nodded.
Zack took Maxs hand in his and guided her to the door. Suddenly Max slipped on the slippery floor and stumbled into a wall that wasn't actually a wall. It was a large sheet of wall paper that covered a huge whole in the wall. If it wasn't for Zacks quick think Max would have fallen through the large hole and down the descending stairs. But luckily Zack had grabbed Max around the waist and held her body against his to help steady her.
"What the hell happened there?" Max shouted in surprise looking up at Zack who looked down at her.
"What's wrong? Are you two okay?" Alec ran to the bathroom door quickly followed by Cece.
"Yeah, we've just found a large hole in the wall nothing out of the ordinary" Max shrugged her shoulders smiling making everyone laugh.
"Where the hell does that go?" Alec asked moving closer to the hole.
"Let's see" Max moved closer to the hole but was pulled back with Zack tugging on her hand.
"No, Max. Stay up here we don't know what's down there" Zack told her.
"Fine" Max sighed
"Cece stay with Max and we'll call if it's safe" Alec told her and Cece nodded. Zack and Alec took out there guns and slowly walked down the descending stairs.
Alec and Zack stood still when they reached the bottom of the stairs both transgenics stunned with what they were seeing. The stairs led to a door through the door was a room dedicated to Max. There was an actual rubber model Logan dressed to look like Max. There was pictures of Max all over the walls leaving no wall uncovered. Pictures from Manticore, Crash, Parties, Missions and most of all pictures of Max and Zack only Logan had pinned a photo of his face where Zacks face on the photo was to make it look like Max was with Logan in the photo.
There was even video's of Max and her unit that could have only come form Manticores CCTV cameras.
"Zack? Alec?" Cece and Max called to make sure they were okay but no answers so slowly they walked down the stairs Cece leading the way.
As soon as Cece opened the door and seen the room she spun round Zack and Alec walked towards her. When noticed she was turning to stop Max from entering the room.
"Max stop stop" cece held Max at arms length
"Cece what's wrong? Is Zack okay? Alec?" Max worried incase something happened to someone.
"No, their both okay, it's not that" Cece answered then added " Max i really think you shouldn't go in there, it's well it's.." Max cut her off.
"Cece just let me in" Max moan then Cece let her placed Max wandered into the room running her fingers along the walls covered in posters and pictures of her. Cece, Alec and Zack stood back from her and let her take everything in.
Max scanned the pictures, CCTV videos and everything else. Zack approached Max and straight away he noticed a different look in her eyes, something that wasn't there before and he didn't like it.
"I'm gonna bloody kill him?" Max shouted then blurred and ran up the stairs followed by the rest of the X5's.
