Max's POV
It had been a while since we set up camp and I was on first watch, then I heard a rustle behind me and nearly jumped, noticing it was just Fang, "Uh, hey"
Fang just slightly stared at me and replied, "Hey"
Then he sat down next to me and we sat there in silence a few seconds, but they felt like hours, upon hours.
"So, what's bugging you?" He asked,
I looked at him and replied, "Nothing" and turned my face away,
"No, really" sigh, 'he can read me like a book' I thought to myself, 'Or maybe he read my book...'
"Well, Aquarius, or Aqua, whatever you prefer, I don't really know, but there's something about her, I can't put my finger on it but, There's something about Aquarius" I said
"I know what you mean" Fang said "It's like she's going to get up and kill us at any moment" Fang said, grinning
"Oh, shut up!" I said, punching his arm playfully.
"But really-" I started when suddenly, just the 'perfect' thing to break the moment, I heard noises and looked over to see Aquarius spazing again.
I crawled over to her and tried my best to make her become conscious again, just then Fang came up with a can of warm Orange soda in his hand and dumped it all over Aquarius's face, which was amazingly enough made her wake up, gasping and I saw her lick her lips (Why didn't I think of that!?),
"Are you okay?!" I asked, glaring at Fang
Her Reply: "I taste pretty good!"
"Will you guys shut the he- she's awake?" Iggy whispered loudly
I smiled; "Well thanks to Fang here" I whispered glaring at him. Again.
"Just go back to sleep" then I mumbled two almost inaudible words, "Sleeping Beauty."
I looked over to Aquarius looking around, who was obviously confused
"Fang dumped Orange Soda on you, I'll Explain more to you later"
"Go to sleep Max, I'll take watch" Fang mumbled while Iggy rolled back over to the others and drifted back to sleep.
Aquarius's POV
Well, you already know the details about the little conversation, so once everybody was asleep, except whatshisface, I decided I would go and find something useful; like a car!
Thanks to another one of my abilitiesI never told anybody about, this should be a snap, so I turned Invisible and crept through the woods, surprised when I managed to finally get out of there without getting caught,
'Whoa! Who ever thought this would be so easy!?' I thought happily.
Right in front of me, was a car dealership, luckily I was still invisible, so I could get ALL the stuff I needed, then when I was walking past a few cars, I noticed something. One of the cars had a set of keys already in it! Score one for the mutants… without a home! This just gets easier by the second! So I quickly opened the car door and got in the drivers seat and tried putting my foot on Gas, but I couldn't reach it, suddenly I felt and almost sickening stretch in my leg and looked at it,
My leg was stretched out like elastic!
"This gets easier by the milisecond!" I almost shouted, and pushed down the Gas button realizing it was sunrise (already), 'crap'
Max's POV
I woke up to the noses of fast steps and heard Nudge screaming, "Where is she! How can you lose track of a four year old! What's wrong with you! How could this happen! Oh my god! This can't be happening!"
smack!
I looked up and saw that Gazzy just smacked Nudge alongside the face,
"Do that again!" Nudge almost screamed, and happily, Gazzy smacked her again, I got up and didn't have to say anything to realize what was going on, then to make it all perfect, the dumb voice chimed in,
Smooth Max, you and yourfriends just lost the project
'Project?' I thought harshly, 'what do you mean, Project?' I almost yelled out.
Only time will tell Maximum
'Shut it!' I thought back harshly
And amazingly, the voice listened.
"Okay…" I slowly said while the shock was still going through my head that Aquarius actually left us while we were asleep.
Aquarius's POV
I heard screaming and slowed the car down realizing that it was Nudge and then decided to just wait a minute so I could listen in on their conversation, just in case…
Iggy's POV
"We need to leave, now"
everybody looked at me in shock and I said,
"I heard something."
Aquarius's POV
Then I thought to myself, 'uh-oh, they better not leave me!'
And faster than I could even think, I pushed the Gas pedal down at full speed bursting through the trees, stopping an inch away from Fang.
Smiling, I pulled my legs back to their normal lengths and hopped out of the car
What made me almost laugh was when I saw everybody staring at me in shock, well Iggy looked in my direction, but I knew that if I laughed, they wouldn't hesitate to beat the stuffing out of me, so I just waited, Silence.
"Uh… I thought we could use a ride" I said, looking down at my feet, so I wouldn't have to face their faces... that sounded odd, well, anyways!
Max walked up to me, kneeled down and whispered, "Thanks, 1, never do that again otherwise I wont hesitate to kill you, and 2, since when do you know how to drive?"
I stood there, thinking and looked up, "I don't know"
If you didn't think that sentence was shocking, well then re-read it and remember, I'm a four year old with a still growing IQ (That's already off the chart's)!
Max's POV
What frightened me more than Aquarius missing is what Iggy had said, what nearly killed me was the fact that a car stopped and inch away from hitting Fang
"Uh… I thought we could use a ride" Aquarius commented after a long silence, looking down at her feet
I walked up to her and whispered with and almost frightened tone, "Thanks, 1, never do that again otherwise I wont hesitate to kill you, and 2, since when do you know how to drive?"
And I thought I would never hear the following words come from her mouth,
"I don't know"
