Chapter One: My Wildest Dream

I hated the day from the moment I woke up. My shoulders were killing me, as they did normally almost every other day of my uneventful 14 years of life. I didn't complain for it gave me a good reason to get out of track practice and gym. I slipped on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt, my normal outfit and dragged myself down the stairs.

I made myself some coffee; thank god my parents are never home in the morning, and some cereal. I couldn't cook to save my life. I had burned microwave popcorn once and that ended my cooking career.

Not long after, I was on the bus, with my super light backpack. My friends thought it weighed a ton but I thought it was as light as it always was. My friends are kind of weird, just to let you know.


Completing the last of my homework, I jumped onto my computer, pulling down the shades to keep the sun out of my eyes. As I pulled a piece of my light brown hair out of my face, I saw some hawks flying just above the trees. They didn't look like normal hawks and I'm pretty sure that hawks don't wear jeans and white sneakers.

Was my wildest dream coming true? I ran over to my desk and grabbed the latest Maximum Ride book; I am a huge fan of the series and tucked it under my arm. My shoulders started to hurt like crazy again and I rolled them to stop the pain. I ran down the stairs, skipping every other step, and sprinted out side and into the forest. There they were, standing there as if they had climbed out of the pages of the very book I held in my hands. They were just as the book described. Even from here, I could hear Nudge talking endlessly about her hunger. I rolled my eyes, not very surprised.

Then, one of them tilted his head upward, as if listening to something. The others followed and I held my breath as one of them looked straight at me, but didn't seem to see me. I could tell it was Iggy by the way he stared endlessly with his blue eyes, not blinking. They made no attempt to get me but rather started whispering to each other. I could just make out what they were saying. "Is it her Ig?"

"Well, how am I supposed to know? I can't see her!"

I saw two of them, I guessed Max and Fang, and one nodded. It was Fang who took off because I saw his dark wings. Iggy was still staring at me with sightless eyes and then Max glanced over in my direction, smiling for a brief moment. Something then hit me in the back of the head and I blacked out.
