Thank you all for reading. This story isn't as popular as I wished…but ohh well! We all cant be famous. But I do enjoy this story!

I am saying that I don't own Maximum Ride or her merry bunch of friends.


I Would Walk Through Flames

What do you mean by missing?

MaxPOV

Fang and I arrived home at 6pm. Gazzy and Angel were already home. When we walked into our small yet cozy house dinner was waiting on the table for us, with a note from my siblings.

Max and Fang,

You guys need to relax and enjoy yourselves. Take a deep breath and have a sit down. We wont bother you guys while you eat.

Have fun!

~Love your darling Sister and Brother.

Well aren't they modest, but they are sweet. Fang read the note and smiled. He looked at me and waved a hand to the other empty seat across from him.

"This is kinda surprising." I said while I sat down.

"I know right. I never thought they would ever leave us alone." Fang said with a smile on his face.

"So, how's work?" I asked, taking a forkful of spaghetti.

"Work is amazing. Grading papers, students acting weird. The usual." Fang said with a laugh.

"Do you have any plans for this week." I asked.

"Actually I do. Tonight I'm going to watch the game with Iggy at his house." Fang said, taking a bite of bread.

"That sounds ama-" I was interrupted by Gazzy barging in the room.

"You guys finished yet?" He demanded. Then Angel ran in the room looking embarrassed.

"Gazzy!" Angel screeched. "Their trying to have a romantic dinner! And you just ruined it!" Gazzy blushed and started to back away slowly.

"No. You guys didn't interrupt. Would you like to sit down?" I said, catching Fang's eye. Gazzy and Angel nodded and grabbed their chairs.

"Angel, how's life at the morgue?" Fang said, wincing slightly. He was never a fan of Angel's job.

"Oh, today was horrible!" Angel said, throwing her hands in the air. "Today we had a 8 year-old boy in my morgue, he just suddenly died in bed! Absolutely horrid." Angel said with a sad look in her eyes.

"And this is why you should have tried for a happier job!" Gazzy said.

"Well at least I have a job!" Angel said, her face turning red.

"Ok lets calm down. How's college working out for you Gazzy?" I asked, trying to change the subject.

"Oh you know homework, schoolwork, work." He said with a sigh.

"Wow." Fang said. "Sounds like a lot of work." I laughed at his semi funny joke. Fang stood up and checked his watch.

"Better get going if I want to make it to Iggy's before the game starts. See you tonight." Fang said, grabbing his coat and walking out the front door. Angel gave me a look.

"What?" I asked.

"Oh nothing." Angel sighed. "You always sucked at relationships." She stood up and walked out of the dinning room. I was dumb-struck. Ok yes, maybe I did suck a little at relationships.

"I need to finish some homework." Gazzy said, as he stood up and also walked out of the room.

I picked up my plate and put it in the sink. I walked into the living room, sat down on the couch and watched some good wholesome TV. Iggy lived only a couple of miles away, so Fang should be back by 9pm. I checked the clock now and it is…8pm. I switched channels and kept checking the clock. The time went from 8pm to 9pm to 10pm to 11pm. By now I was starting to get worried. Like those horrible anxiety attacks. I got up off the couch and started to pace the room. I called Fang multiple times and every time there was no answer.

The sun started to rise and night was gone, but my worry was still here. I heard movement in the house and immediately thought that Fang was home, but it was only Angel putting on her jacket.

"Hey Max." Angel said sweetly. "Is Fang still not home?" She asked.

"No!" I said, my voice tight with worry. "Where are you going?"

"Oh, I got called into the morgue. We had three deaths last night." She said, grabbing her car keys.

"Oh ok. Don't work yourself to hard." I said, giving her a hug as she walked out.

I called Iggy, and he said Fang left last night at around 8:30pm. So he should be here now! I called the school, random neighbors, and places that Fang usually hanged out at. And he wasn't anywhere to be found. Gazzy walked out of his room and looked sleepily at me. When he saw my face he immediately became alert.

"What's wrong Max?!" Gazzy asked.

"Fang's missing." I said, a sob catching in my throat.

"What do you mean by missing?"

"Missing as in not here and no one knows where he is!" I screeched.
