I don't own Maximum Ride or the Charecters. I do own the fake charecters that I made up in the story, unless James Patson makes a story about Max's daughter. But, till then, I own the fake charecters! YAY! AND! MR3 IS OUT!!!!!!!!! If i'm copying anyone, I am SSSSOOOOOO sorry! I do not mean to copy people! Sorry about spelling mistakes, but i don't have spell check and i can't spell to save my life! I FORGOT! MY FRIEND SAPPHIR ADI HELPPED ME! I came up with Sam, but she came up with SAXIM! I already had Sam, but I needed a full name and she helpped me! So she gets credit for Saxim and we both own the name! And she also get's credit for Saxim's brother's name. We both own that one too!

Sam's POV

The next morning, I got up early. Daddy was gone. I walked around the house. The sun still wasn't up. I went back to my bedroom and cracked open the door. My room was diffrent shades of red and pink with some white bubbels. See! I'm SO not like my mom! I looked at Lilly. Her hair was spred over my red pillow. She held on to one of my old stuffed animals. It was a cream colored bear. Nothing special. Just a cream colored bear. Her mouth was closed.

I slowly closed the door and walked into the back yard. I looked at our pool. Clean except for a few leaves. The last few stars of the night looked pretty. I knew that no one was awake in the others houses. I let my wings out just a little bit. No harm. Could come in handy. A small bark was in the distence. I let my wings out as if I was gonna fly and then walked to the side of the house. I looked through the gate. Nothing was coming except for a small yorkie. I let out a sigh of relief. The little dog came up to me. I bent dog and stuck my fingers threw the bars and the dog gladly liked them. His head and legs were a cookie dough brown and his body was black.

"Hey, little fella." I said. "What's your name? Are you lost? Let me see that collor of yours."

He licked my fingers as I looked at his collor. It had a light on it. It was, blinking. I slipped my other fingers through the bars and grabbed it with my first two fingers. I pulled it off and looked at it. It was a tracking device. I sniffed the air. There must be something here to make the dog come. The dog ran behind our trash can and grabbed some meat! The eraser that got away! He left it there so the dog would find it! There's probaly a swarm of erasers headed here now! But there gonna be surprised! I got on top of our fence. The stars were still out so everyone was probaly sleeping. Let's see. The sun should be up in an hour. So I've got about 25 minutes to get away from here, hide this thing, and then another 25 minutes to get back before anyone earlie risers see me!

I took off and flew for a long time. I guessed at how long I was flying. Around 21 to 23 minutes probabaly. I threw the tracking device down and turned around. I was pretty darn proud of mysefl. I just SAVED us from an eraser attack! I rule! I SO rock! Maybe I am as cool as my mom after all. It's so cool! I'm halfway home,it's a beatiful day,I just saved us, the sun is rising-THE SUN IS RISING! CRA-CRUD! My mom would kill me for saying that.

I flew as fast as I could. I saw a lilltle blond head outside with a bear. LILLY! She must be worried about me! She always gets up with the sun! I flew onto the roof and snapped in my wings as soon as I flet something beneath my feat. I ran to the eadge, got on our fence and hopped down. I ran to Lilly. She was in one of my old night gowns. Why do I still have it? It stopped fitting me years ago! Anyways, I bent down beside her.

"Hey, Lil?" I said. "What are you doing out this early?"

"I was looking for you." She said all sweet and cute.

"I'm sorry. I was getting some freash air and something came up. Let's go back inside."

"Ok!" She smiled.

I lead her inside and to my room. I pulled out her clothes from yesterday. They had been washed and they were the olny clothes she had.

"I have to wear the same outfit?" she said.

"If it makes ya feel better, I'll wear the same outfit!"

"Ok!"

A picture of Lilly being shoved in a bag and put in a helicoptor came into my head. I looked at Lilly. She can't read minds, but she can send pictuers and videos of scences into people's heads and see pictures and sences in people's heads. She just can't send or recieve sound. Like my computer.

"Lilly?" I said. "Did you send me that picture?"

"What picture?" She asked.

"The one of you being stuffed in a bag and throwen into a helicoptor?"

"No." She shook her head. "I didn't do anything."

I gave her her clothes and got mine out. I had to wear the same the clothes I wore yesterday to make her feel better. My short sleeve black shirt over a long sleeve white shirt. My black shirt had the words "Limited Edition Freedom" on it in an old westen style. The white long sleeves still had a few blood stains, but I could just say I have a really messed up ketchup bottle. A scene of Lilly fighting erasers in my room came into my head.

"Stop goofing aroung Lilly." I said as she pulled the shirt over her head. "These sences and pictures your sending me aren't funny!"

"I'm not doing anything!" She whinned as she pulled up her shorts.

"Then who is?"

"I don't know!"

Words were now in my head. They were in a messy hand writing. Lilly's handwriting. They read "wolfes took me. fake me is there. save me plues!" I translated it to "Wolves took me! Fake me is there! Help me Please!" I looked at 'Lilly'. She seamed to be Lilly.

"Can see your wings?" I asked.

"Why?" She looked up and me with big eyes.

"I want to see if the erasers hurt them."

"Ok!" She turned around and snapped out pure white wings. "Those erasers were so mean to me! They dug their stupid claws into my wings!"

I bent down and looked. Her wings weren't a mixture of blonde and white. And they had a few claw marks. I remember. The erasers didn't touch Lilly's wings. And, she knew what they were. Even after mom and dad told her about it, Lilly still called them wolves, not erasers. I stood up.

"Ok, Lilly boo." I said. It was Lilly's nick name. "Your good. They didn't hurt ya too bad! I need a faveor though."

"What?" she asked as she turned around.

"Didn't your class draw some pictures to celabrate the end of the school year?"

"Um...y-yes..."

"HUMM. I never saw your drawing. Do you have it."

"NOPE! Sorry! It's at home!"

"Well then, can you send a picture of it to my mind?"

"Um..s-sure..."

"SAM!" Corin called. "There's a dog in the backyard! Come look!"

"LET'S GO!" Lilly said. She grabbed my wrist and pulled me toward the back door. The little dog from before was there. I pulled Corin off to the side.

"That's not Lilly!" I whispered.

"What?"

"Lilly sent my brain pictures of the erasers kidnapping her." I explained. "Then she sent me a message that this was a fake. This 'Lilly' was reluctent to send a picture to my head. And she had marks on her wings that Lilly didn't have. And her wings are pure white! Lilly's wings are white and blonde."

"Let's go tell mom."

"Hey!" I called to the fake. "Let's go get some food!"

"OK!" the fake said. "Can he come!" She pointed at the dog.

"Sure." Corin said. "Just make sure he dosen't make a mess."

We walked inside to find my MOM makeing BREAKFAST! I walked up and took the stuff from her.

"How about I do it!" I said.

"Sure." mom shuruged. "Who's our guest?" She pointed at the dog.

"Corin found him!" 'Lilly' said excitedly. "Can we keep him?! PLEASE!"

"Sure." mom said.

"Mom." Corin said. "Can I talk to you in the hallway? It's really important." He glanced at the fake Lilly who was stroking the dog's hair.

Mom and Corin disappered into the hallway as I made pancakes and eggs. I'm not a fantastic cook like Iggy. In fact, I can barely cook anything! But I'm not as bad aas mom. I made a desision when I was 3. Don't eat want mom cooks! I stored that under the 'Importan' files. Mom and Corin came back in as I was setting the tabel. We all sat down and mom got some lunch meat and milk for the dog.

As I was putting my dishes away, I brouhgt back the subject of "Lilly" and putting pictures in my head.

"Lilly," I said. "You still haven't sent that picture to my head. The one of your school drawing."

"I would like to see that." mom said.

"Yeah." Corin shoveled eggs into his mouth. "Send it to me too."

"um..." The fake was thinking. "It's a really bad picture...I messed up alot...and...my teacher still has it hung up in the school hallway...I really don't like it..."

"Really?" I said.

"Uh huh!" She nodded.

"Becuse, the real Lilly showed us that picture Friday. She ran up to me and said 'Sam!Sam! Look at the pretty picture I drew for school! Isn't it real good?!' And The real Lilly has wings that are blonde and white not just white."

"And the real Lilly," mom added. "Didn't get her wings hurt. The only thing wrong with her wings was one feather that was all mesed up and we pulled that out last night."

"And," Corin jumped in. "The real Lilly dosen't call them, 'erasers'. She calls them wolves."

"Um...Well..." the fake was stuck. "I...guess... my job...is done...I couldn't the info I needed. Oh, well. I'll be takeing my dog that the Detention trained and leave."

Out of no where, she morfed into a mini eraser and reached for the dog. The dog yelped and ran behind my legs. The mini eraser growled and leaped for the door. My brother snapped out his big dark brown wings and leaped for her, using his wings to make himself go further.He landed on her and wresteled with her to keep her pinned. She sqirmed, but mom joined in and pinned her arms while Corin got her legs. She sqirmed a little, but it was useless.

"LET ME GO YOU FREAKS!" The erasers yelled. "REG! SICK 'EM!"

The yorkie ran to my mom! I thought he would bite her! Then, he leaped for the eraser and bit her arm! Go, what did she say his name was? Oh, yeah Reg. Go, Reg! The eraser howled with pain and I walked over there.

"Where is Lilly?" I asked.

"Why would I tell you?!"

Mom bent her arm and she grited her teeth.

"Where is Lilly?!" She didn't answer and Corin bent her legs at an akward angle. "TELL ME! WHERE IS LILLY?!"

"AT THE DETENTION!"

"The what?" Mom asked. She was expecting someting like, the School 2.

"THE SCHOOL!"

"I destroyed it!" Mom said.

"They rebuilt it and called it the Detention!"

"Where is it?" Corin asked.

"I'll die before I tell a freak like you!"

I had it! I punched her ribs and she let out a satisfying wheez.

"That can be aranged!" I said. "TELL US! NOW!"

"NO!"

"REG! Sic-"

"He won't listen to you!"

"Reg! Sick 'em!" I pointed at her.

The dog looked like he girn before he took a big bite out of her arm and she howled.

"You have three human-avians and a dog that hates you here. You really have no choice." I said.

"FINE!" She yelled.

"Let go." Mom said.

Reg was reluctant at first, but he let go. Blood fell on the floor. Such a wounderful way for a family to bond! Pin a wolf to the floor and interagate it! Every family should do this! The eraser sighed.

"It's in..." She waited.

"Don't wait!" Corin said. "You'll just come up with a lie! Tell us now!"

"Wisconson!" She said. "Ya happy!"

"Now, " mom said. "It's either we kill you or get some more info outta ya. Which is it?"

"Kill me, please."

"Fine by me." mom stood up and pulled the eraser up with her. She dragged the eraser into the other room. Won't see her again. I looked at Corin.

"Now what?" I said. "We have to get Lilly and she's halfway to Wisconson by now."

"We," Corin said "Don't have to do anything."

My mouth dropped open. For a second, I was about to follow Corin's lead becuse I look up to him. But, only for a second. Leave Lilly in the hands of eraser and whitecoats?! It's my falut becuse I didn't watch her?! I feal bad enough! I have to do something to help her! That and, she looks up to me! She treats me like a sister! And, in a way, she's like my sister! I can't let them hurt her!

Corin stood up and put his dishes away. I walked behind him.

"Your jokeing? Right." I said.

"Nope."

"But, she's like family! You don't abandon family!"

"Mom will get her."

"But it wasn't mom's fault!"

"And it's not our fault!"

I didn't want to admit that I got Lilly taken. But I had to get through to my thick headed brother.

"Your right! It's not our fault! It's my fault!"

He gave me a weird look. "What?"

"I went outside this morning! I left Lilly in the room by herself before the sun came up. I found the dog and he had a tracking device on his collor! I took it and flew! When I came back, the eraser was in the back yard waiting for me! It's my fault, and I'm not gonna sit here and let someone else take responsabilty for me being stupid!"

"And I'm not gonna sit here and let you commit suicide!" He said. "There will be thousands of erasers there and I don't want you going in there alone!"

"Then come with me 'cus I'm goin'!" Before he could say anything a ran to my room and grabbed my black backpack. It was sortta small, but I didn't need that much. I went back to the kitchen and put food in it as Corin protested and mom came in.

"Saxim are you insane!"

"I must be!"

"I heard the whole conversation!" My mom said. "Saxim Cathy Winder you are not going anywere." I forgot, my dad's real name was Winston Winder. So not him. Mom still calls him Fang. She just calls him Fang Winder.

"Mom, I'm not gonna let you get hurt becuse I made a mistake!"

"And I'm not gonna let my daughter get hurt becuse she felt bad. If you feel that bad, tell Lilly when she get's back and apoligize."

"NO!" I said as I grabbed some drinks and shoved them into my pack. "I'm going! Sorry mom, but I'm gonna have to disobey!"

I put on my pack and ran for the back door. I was in the sky and flying away when mom took off. Why do I feel like I'm forgeting something? Mom was infront of me. I smacked mysefl in the forhead. Superspead! I thought I stored that in the 'important' files!

"Saxim Cathy Winder, go home!"

I rolled my eyes and went home. Mom flew off and Corin gave me a look.

"At least I went to do the right thing!" I said.

"You were being stupid!"

"I didn't see you fighing eraser last night or yesterday! I didn't see you wanting to save someone's life! Are you so heartless and sefl-centered that you don't care what happens to a seven year old as long as someone else is there to do the job?"

"No! I care! But-

"Then act like it! You say you care but you don't wanna do anything about it! You don't want to go save her life! Or, is it just that you like it here?! Your to use to haveing a normal life and you don't want to break out of your comrot zone to save someone! You just don't want to do any work!"

"I do to! But mom won't let us go-"

"Don't let that stop you! Mom and Dad always say don't let anyone stop you from doing what's right! Are you gonna let Mom and Dad stop you from doing what's right?! Your the one in karate class and you know know how to fight! But I haven't seen you fight something that should be fought for! What's right and someone's life!"

Before he could say or do anything I turned around and went into my room. I closed and locked the door. I was so mad! I can't believe this! I can't save Lilly and my borther dosen't want to save her! I heard a knock at the door. I got really steamed! He dosen't want to go save someone,but he wants to waste precious time talking to me! Every second draws Lilly closer to a place of pain! And he wants to talk?! I felt a breeze. And, for the first time, I saw the glass by my window. I moved the curtins. The erasers broke the window! I felt so happy! The erasers borke my window! Yipee! This is great! I can go get Lilly!

I put on my pack and grabbed a map. I was gone. I flew fast and hard. North! I'm goin' to Wisconson! Woo-who! Lilly, just wait! I'm coming for ya! If they want to hurt you, their gonna have to get through me!
