I GOT SPELL CHECK NOW! And grammar check. And, I just used my spell check on the word grammar cus I just made a mistake! AND! One of my friends can tell between the Voice and Sam. I put " up there for a reason! But still, I will be doing it different now for her. Anybody else have any problems telling who is Sam and who is her Voice? Just curious.
POV…do I need to put it up here…
(a/n: If you did not read the info up there, it's new. So please read, cus it is very helpful.)
"Can you give me anther brain attack now?" I asked my Voice as I looked at the blood filled scene in front of me. No response. My eyes grew wide as I discovered that my Flock was not in the ally full of dead Eraser bodies and broken Flyboys.
I got up. Blood covered my body. Millions of questions and thoughts ran through my head. The worst was that my Flock was taken! I ran up to a dumpster, hoping that someone was hiding inside it. No one! I screamed their names. I had to find them!
"Sam!" A voice called. I turned to see nothing. "Up here Sam!" The familiar voice called. I looked up. On top of a building, Maddy was looking down at me. She flew down and hugged me.
"Sam! We were so worried! You fainted and we took you up into the ally. Lilly found a secret passage that lead here. Zack heard noises and, next thing I know, we were under attack. Will kept you hidden for a while. When we killed them all we went up to the roof. Will disappeared in the middle of the battle and we couldn't take you there 'cus you were to heavy, so we left you down here. I watched you, then Lilly, then Reg, then me again, and then you woke up!" Maddy finally ended. She did not take one breath.
"SAM!" "Lilly screamed before she flew down and hugged me. Zack came down with Reg. Reg jumped into my arms. He licked my face.
"Are you ok?" Zack asked. "The noise from the fight freaked me out and I didn't hear you wake up. We were all freaked out and we couldn't carry you up to the roof. Reg wouldn't stop telling Lilly what he wanted to say and I got super annoyed. I'm hungry! What have we got?" Zack and Maddy are so like Nudge.
"I don't know yet. Where is Will?" I replied.
"I read his mind!" Lilly said. "He's going to get Corin. Your Voice told him where he is!"
"So, you give me riddles and him strait answers?"
Yes.
"Why?! Do you hate me or something?!"
No. He just doesn't need to have Voice helping him as much as you do! You have questions that you want answered! You always ask why God gave these lives to your mom and dad and Corin and you. You want to know why we have to do this. You have to figure it out.
"Why?!"
Because, if it was told to you, you would become lazy and not want to work for anything! Will already knows he needs to work. So I give you problems that you need to work out. Think of it as more homework.
"Evil!"
I know.
"Where is Corin?"
Will's got him! Relax! I'll tell you if you need to go help him. Until then, wait on the roof!
"Back to the roof guys. I'll explain what we're gonna do." We flew up to the roof. After I explained it all, Maddy and Zack began asking questions.
"I'm hungry!" Maddy said.
"Do we have food?" Zack asked.
"Where are gonna go next?!" Maddy said. "And is Reg gonna stay with us?"
"I wanna go to McDonalds! And then Taco Bell!" Zack said, mostly to himself.
"I wanna go there and Burger King! It'll be so much fun! Can we, Sam?" Maddy added.
"Can we?"
"Reg and I wanna go too!" Lilly jumped in!
"Wait guys! The others have to get here first!" I tied to calm them down. Key word: tried.
"Note to brain: Always carry food with me to keep them quite!"
"WE'RE HUNGRY!" They all shouted. Reg just barked really loud!
"OK! We'll go eat something!" I began. "Only if you all behave! ZACK!"
"What?"
"Give me all your bombs!"
"Um…that's gonna be a problem."
"Why?"
"Cus...I got so many that some of them have to be carried in my…um…" The rest was all mumbled and I couldn't here him.
"What? Say it again! Don't mumble!" Maddy said.
"My…un…" He mumbled it again.
"His underwear!" Lilly, my helpful mind reader shouted. "He has to carry some in his underwear! HAHAHAHA!"
Zack was completely red! It was so funny! Even Reg was laughing! What brought up this topic again? Oh, right! Bombs!
"You can…he he…keep those…he he…Give me your back pack…he he…"
He handed over to where my voice was. I took it and looked inside. All I could see was bombs. I dumped it out. All that came out was bombs. He had nothing but bombs!
"Zack? You do realize that people will think you're a terrorist right?"
"And?" Zack said. "I'm not, so I don't have to worry. Next topic of concern, please."
"Reg and I are scared." Lilly said.
"You've fought mutant wolf men! You've seen bloody battles and heads coming off! Not really, but still, you're scared of that! Why would I have any reason to use them on you?!" Zack asked as Will a Corin flew up to us.
"Corin!" I screamed in excitement as I hugged him.
"Hey, Sam!" He said. "Ya know, at first I thought Will was bad, now I know other wise."
"Hi guys!" Will said.
"CORIN!" Maddy and Lilly yelled as they ran to Corin.
"What up, Corin?" Zack said holding out a fist, waiting for Corin to do the weird-guy-bump-fist-thingy. Corin did. Reg jumped up and began to lick Corin's face.
"Hello? Do you see me?" Will asked.
I felt like having some fun! "Hey, guys, do here something? I sounds high pitched and weird. Like some guy trying to get our attention or something."
"Yeah! Reg says it hurts his ears!" Lilly joined in.
"Ha ha. Funny, guys. Now acknowledge my presence."
Reg jumped down and began sniffing Will's leg. He barked like crazy.
"Hey, Will!" Zack said, once again doing the bump-fist-thing.
"What up?" Will asked.
"Notin'." Zack said, as if the full word would kill him.
"Ok!" Corin said, as if he was in charge. "Let's get going. We should find the rest of Mom and Dad's Flock."
"Done." We all said.
"Then we should figure out what the School/Detention is up to."
Did I forget to mention that they are having a hard time deciding if they should be the School or Detention?
"No, but thanks for telling me now."
"But Sam is our leader." Maddy said.
"Yeah! We should listen to her!" Lilly added.
"Yup. Listening to Sam is what I'm doing." Will replied.
"Sam. Sorry, Corin. I gotta follow Sam. Sam, what next?" Zack said.
"HOLD IT!" Corin got our attention. "Sam? Saxim? In charge? HA! She freaked out leading a Girl Scout meeting!"
"I was seven!" I defended myself.
"Why don't we put the oldest in charge?" Corin asked.
"Cus Saxim Fly is the new Maximum Ride." Lilly said.
"Fly? That's not our last name." Corin was confused.
"Um…you know how Mom gave herself the name Maximum Ride? Well, I gave myself the name Saxim Fly."
"And we all took that name! Maddy Fly!" Maddy said.
"Zack Fly sounds better then ZACKIE orZack Attack" Zack said. Maddy slimed. She liked the nickname she had given her brother.
"Um…Will Fly sounds like 'The will to fly.' That sounds cool." Will said.
"Lilly and Reg Fly! It's pretty." Lilly said.
"And Corin Fly sounds good." Maddy added. "I like it! Corin Fly. Corin Fly. Corin Fly. Cool name to me!"
"Knock it off! We have to save the world! Not come up with cool names or play like a bunch of two year-olds! This is serious!" Corin was still trying to be the boss.
"Did Mom and Dad be one hundred percent serious? No! And they still saved the world!" I said.
"But you know the mistakes they made!" Corin said.
"And did they die? No! Did it hurt them? Yes. But we are not Mom and Dad. We won't do the same things. And, we are also kids! Lilly is seven. Maddy and Zack are nine! Will and I are fourteen. You are sixteen. I am not going to make them act like lifeless robots!
(a/n: Remember, Sam's birthday was a week after they were with Nudge. She is now 14. Corin is sixteen. I don't know if I've already said how old he is. He is now sixteen. Go with that.)
"And, Reg is a dog! You expect me to keep him from being a dog! I've always sat back while you just did stuff that I didn't agree with! No more! I've had it! You always say that you agree with this and that about obeying rules and doing what's best fro everyone and listening and considering everyone's idea! Then, when it comes time to do all that, you don't do it! You're selfish! You don't care about the rules of people put in charge of you!
"You don't care what everyone else has to say! You only care about what you think we should do! You only care about what you want the rules to be! You only want the rules to fit what makes you happy! I'm not gonna do that to these kids! I'm not gonna be selfish! I'm gonna listen and consider their ideas! I'm gonna be a good and kind leader to them! You are gonna be selfish! Don't try to say that you're older and know more! You don't know more because you don't know how to work as a team! And you don't know how to care for others! Do you still wanna be the leader?!"
The younger kids were all standing there with their moths open. Will looked scared and Reg was hiding behind Will. Corin just stood there. He was thinking. He took a deep breath.
"Sam, you don't know what you're talking about. This is a serious situation! Not us playing around as little kids. You have to think for a moment." He began.
"You don't think that I know that? I have thought! I have taken this as a serious situation! You just wanna be in charge and be the best! You treat me like I can't do anything!" I yelled at him.
"Because you can't do a whole lot!" He yelled back. "I know there is a lot you can do, but you have your limits! You're hypo tonic for crying out loud! Your muscles are weak! I know you get stronger every day, but you're not strong enough to handle this!" That was where he crossed the line!
"I KNOW!" I screamed. I think some people went out of their houses to see what was going on. Like they would see us. "I know my disabilities! I know my limits! But don't you think, that as a normal person, being hypo tonic would make me super weak. As a bird kid my muscles are naturally stronger! I'm not as weak as I look! If I couldn't handle this all of us would be dead by now!
"Don't you ever think about what other people can do instead of what they can't do? Or are you to busy trying to lift yourself up by making others look bad!" Nothing happened. Everything was still. Corin and I stood there for who knows how long. I just stared at him. He just stared at me. The only movement was wind.
Then it hit me: Could we really be having this argument? Could my life really have gone that far done hill as to be fighting over who would be in charge because the leader had to be strong and smart? Because we had no idea where our next meal would come from? Because we had no idea what life was going to be anymore?
I turned around. I couldn't do this anymore. My Voice was about to take over and help me, but then I noticed something. The Flock was gone!
"Corin! You were facing them! Didn't you see them go?" I asked.
"No! Where are they?" He sounded just as worried.
"Lilly? Can you hear me?" I asked in my head.
"Yes, Sam!" Lilly said.
"Where are you?" I asked.
"Will took us out to eat! He still had some money from his allowance." She answered.
"But where did he take you?" I was trying to get the name of the place.
"McDonalds."
"I'll be right there!" I said as I took off.
Corin followed me, asking questions. I just kept flying. When I saw the McDonalds, I landed. I ran inside. Lilly and Will where eating while Maddy and Zack where getting more food. I ran over and hugged Lilly. Corin looked confused as to how I knew where they were.
"Don't tell Lilly." I said, knowing she read his mind. She nodded.
I sat down and Will passed me three cheese burgers. He gave Corin five. We eat, an awkward silence in the air. Reg was Zack's guide dog. He had to act like Reg was trained not to have a leash.
(a/n: Well, Corin isn't to happy. If you want to know more go to the Saxim Fly Blog on I use my yahoo360 page to do the blog! My avatar is Sam! Yay!)
