A/N: *runs from angry mob* OK, OK! Sheesh. Sorry for not being able to update sooner! I could NOT figure out how to post a new chapter, and my computer is broken. This one is SO SLOW! And thank you all so much for all of the great characters! Anyway, on with the story!

Disclaimer: I do not own this story. Unless….I'm in the middle of a MAJOR identity crisis!

Chapter One: New Flock

Max POV:

Curse the Sun! Why is it so BRIGHT!? Groaning, I turn around to face electric blue eyes. Now, all of you must be thinking "What the HECK happened to Fang?!" Well, let me show you what happened two years, three months, and seven days ago. But who's countin'?

Flashback:

"Guys! I got us some food!" after a whole 35 seconds with no response, I went into the kitchen to put stuff away. "Max." God… I jumped about five feet. "Fang! Would stop doing that?!" The rest of the Flock gathered around Fang as he..glared at me? "Guys? What's going on" Angel, my baby, stepped forward first. "Max. I don't want you to be our leader anymore. You keep acting like you're my mom, and you're NOT! And I'm the stronger person! I should be the leader! You should LEAVE!" With this, she stepped over to stand behind Fang. I felt like I had to do this every day! Just as I started to explain that I was the leader and that' show it's going to stay, Gazzy stepped forward. "Max, I'm sorry, but I want you to leave to. You're so strict, and you never let us have any fun, or relax! I just want to be normal. Just…..LEAVE!" At this, I fell to the ground. "Wha-what do y-you mean, Gazzy?" Then Nudge "I want to just...be NORMAL, not being afraid of everything. I want to get a house, and STAY in it. I don't want to run anymore! I'm done! Just go AWAY Max!" Iggy walked over to stand by me. I looked up at him hopefully. He grabbed my hand, and pulled me up off the floor. The Flock looked shocked. Then Fang stepped forward. "Max, Max, Max. Ugly, stupid, strict, REJECTING MAX! Rude, harsh, judging! Can't you tell that we all want you gone? Just leave Max. Leave, and never come back." At this, I wiped away all of the tears that had escaped, and squared my shoulders. "This is the WORST MISTAKE you all will EVER MAKE! When you come CRAWLING BACK, EXPECT FREAKING PAIN! IF I EVER SEE YOU AGAIN, I WILL FREAKING RIP YOU ALL APART!" Iggy simply nods, then we jump through an open window, after I made sure I had my Max Ride card.

End Flashback

So, yeah. My family, my flock, the people who I freakin' raised, the ONLY people who I loved and trusted, kicked me out, and decided I wasn't good enough. So now, Iggy and I took down Itex, and freed all of the experiments. Most of them didn't survive. But, all of the survivors decided to stay and join the Flock.

Just saying, this Flock is AWESOME! Now, we live in this awesome mansion. No joke. It has about 35 rooms. And we haven't even seen them all yet. Anyway, here's the Flock...

I was gonna be mean and end it right here, but... I think I'll be nice just this once! ;)

Sunny (Female): 5, can read thoughts, but can't speak or control minds. She is also able to run up to 50 miles per hour. She has pretty wings, tawny brown with white tail feathers, and about a thirteen foot wingspan. Sunny has very little patience, she has a hatred of sitting still with nothing to do, and loathes having nothing to occupy her ever-curious mind. She has a seemingly unlimited amount of energy and needs to have something to put it into, or she begins to get fidgety. She has a habit of bouncing up and down when she gets bored, it's always a bad sign. She loves to take things apart and put them back together again. She either doesn't feel or is incredibly good at hiding fear, those who know her will never know which, but she doesn't appear to be afraid of anything, in fact, her response to most things is to chatter about some aspect of its appearance whilst shooing it away or escaping from it in some manner. She doesn't like bullies nor seeing people get hurt, but no matter how she appears, she is capable of sticking up for herself should she need to. While she might not seem it, she is actually fairly intelligent, and if there is nothing else to entertain her, she will have a book to read or something to take apart. She loves to learn new things. At five years old, she has the appearance of a girl five years older. Standing at 5'3, she has dark brown hair falling in ringlets to her shoulders. She often wears it in pigtails as it infuriates her when it falls into her eyes, which are golden brown, matching her golden skin. She's slim; if a little bit thin for her size. She has two siblings, Trax and Swift.

Trax (Male): 5 ½, Run at speeds up to 20mph, increased strength, mildly empathic. His wings are strawberry blonde with tawny-brown tail feathers and a wingspan of twelve foot. Easily excitable, Trax is curious about everything. He's very playful, he loves to play games, and his energy never seems to run out. He's very outgoing, and he's friendly enough although he can't stand kids that scream and cry because they can't have what they want. He's very nervous around adults and is always on edge around people he doesn't know. He has very little patience when he has nothing to do, he gets fidgety and destructive. However, when he comes across something that scares him, it doesn't take much to terrify him and send him skittering back to someone he knows for a hug and some reassurance. He really doesn't like to be on his own, he prefers to be with someone he knows. Trax is a very pretty boy, with a feminine figure and delicate features; it isn't hard to mistake him for a girl. His hair is dark blonde, cut roughly just beneath his ears, and his eyes are dark green, standing out against his dark skin and fragile features. He has two siblings, Sunny and Swift.

Swift (Male): 6, He can run at speeds up to 100mph, read minds, although he can't send thoughts, breathe underwater and has increased healing. His wings are pale brown, with coppery tail feathers, with a twelve foot wingspan. His wings are too stunted to realistically carry him long distances. Swift's hard to judge, because he never shows what he's feeling. He's very observant; he takes note of everything and everyone around him. He's very bold, and extremely protective over his flock (to him, this means Sunny and Trax), and can be incredibly hostile towards people he doesn't know if he thinks they might pose a threat towards them. He tends to be very suspicious of everything around him; he's very jumpy and does have a habit of seeing threats where there are none. He's certainly not afraid to fight, or to use his powers to help him win. He's pretty much merciless, he fights to destroy his opponents, and he never backs down from anything. If something doesn't work, he's quick to adapt, to change it so that it does work, and that makes it hard to win against him, because he's forever changing his style, there's no way of guessing what his next move will be. He has two siblings, Sunny and Trax.

Robin (Male): 9, can morph into a robin, and change hair color by will. His wings are 8 1/2 feet, stormy gray with small flecks of black and white. Robin is funny, a prankster, yet quite gullible. He also knows a lot about animals. He would most likely get along welly with Gazzy. Robin has dark gray eyes, light skin, and his favorite hair color is reddish-orange. He has one sibling, Rowan, his twin.

Rowan (Female): 9, can blend in well with surroundings, and shrink to half normal size at times (normal size is 4 feet. With wings reaching 9 feet, they are dark orange/brown with gray smears. Rowan is witty child, who knows lots about plants. She also loves to prank people alongside her brother. She is a very friendly, chattery person who would get along great with Nudge. With dark gray eyes, waist-length wavy auburn hair, and light skin, she is a very pretty child. She has one sibling, Robin, her twin.

Soara (Female):13, has raptor vision, super speed on ground, super hearing, and is a great hunter. She has red frizzy hair that is often in a ponytail, and bright green eyes. She is a funny prankster, always causing trouble, and she is quite sarcastic. She is good friends with Robin and Rowan, and she has no siblings.

Rocky (Female): 13, can control earth and fire, she is the silent type, much like Fang, but she also is very loving to the people she knows. Rocky is very much a tomboy, and absolutely HATES the color pink and dresses. Rocky has midnight black hair, reaching down to her waist, she has mocha colored shin, with a light reddish hue. (I totally got that) She is average height, around 5'5. Her wings are grey, with white tail feathers and streaks.

Flaire (Male): 14, controls fire, pyro, owner of Luthor. Flaire is very mischievous, and is Iggy's little brother, though only the Flock knows. Flaire loves Luthor, as Luthor saved his life. Flaire has light brown hair, hazel eyes, and pale skin. He also has many piercings and one tattoo of a phoenix on his left arm.
Flaire's wings are red, orange and fiery yellow, like a fire, with a dark grey at the tips, and are a whopping 14.5 feet. Doberman dog, former attack dog

Luthor (Male): In dog years, around his teens. Luthor is just a normal Doberman, but he used to be an attack dog. He only trusts the new Flock, though he is most loyal to Flaire.

Well, now you know the Flock. Now, it's time to wake everyone up. This should be interesting.
