All of you guys have been so supportive while I was on vacation and couldn't update. And I have no excuses for not updating other than the fact that I was grounded. I feel so ASHAMED! :(

Max: You forgot something

Me: It hurts!

Iggy: Grace (a.k.a. Miggy4evah) does not own Maximum Ride or any of its characters.

Max POV:

Recap:

All in all, it was a great birthday. Other than the kittens, my favorite present had to be the laptop from Rocky. It was all black, with blood red wings on the back. It also had the words 'The Flock' on the front.

We were all laughing at something Sheldon said on the Big Bang Theory, cake bits flying everywhere, when the doorbell rang. "I'll get it!" I yelled out to anyone who cared.

Still giggling, I opened the door wide, only to find…

The old Flock.

End Recap.

I stood there, glaring at them. They all looked taken aback.

"Um, do we know you?"

Oh, yeah. Fang. You might know me from living in a freaking CAGE together for the first ELEVEN YEARS OF OUR LIVES! And we were DATING FOR THE LAST YEAR WE KNEW EACH OTHER! God, how much of a jerk could someone be? You might be thinking "Well, Max. I'm sure you were a genius and got wigs, colored contacts, peircings, tattoos, the whole package." If you thought that...

You were wrong. Well, Iggy has snake bites, and I have spider bites, but we can't look that different, can we?

"So, you came crawling back, hmm?" I questioned, examining my nails like this happened everyday.

The jerks just stared at me, looking confused. Now, I know what you're all thinking. Why can't Angel just read your mind? We have perament mind blocks up, that's why. It stops Sunny and Swift from getting headaches. Speaking of Sunny and Swift...working hard, I pull down my mind blocks for a second, and tell Sunny what's going on.

Sunny, honey, the old flock is here. Could you please let everyone know?

I get an immediate reply:

Sure thing, are you guys gonna use code names?

Nah, I don't think so. They should know who we are.

I quickly put the mind blocks back up. Putting mind blocks up is way easier than taking them down.

Angel looks nervouse, and I can tell that she's telling the Flock she can't read our minds.

Fang clears his throat and staps forward. "M-Max. We've been looking for you." He looks embarasse as his voice cracked.

Good.

With no warning, I jump on Fang, pinning him to the ground. I pull out my pocket knife, putting it to his throat. The other members of the old flock try to get to us, but can't pass my force field. Ha, losers.

"You thought you could come crawling back, huh? Say 'Sorry, Max, sorry we ripped out your heart and stomped all over it, sorry for betraying you after being bestfriends for 14 years, and dating for 2?' Hmm? Did you think I was gonna be all, Oh, that's quite alright! I just loved you all so much, your forgiven? NO! All of YOU ripped out my HEART and STOMPED all OVER IT! I HATE YOU ALL!"

Fangs flock was hysterical, trying to ram their way through the force field to save Fang.

My Flock heard the noise and ran out, then held the old Flock back. Iggy slowly walked over to the force feild and began to speak in a calm, soft voice.

"Max, baby. Could you please get off of Fang now? It's making me a little uncomfortable. Could you just let me in? I would like to help you."

I looked at him through the force feild, which made him slightly blurry.

"But, I wanna hurt him!" I protested. At this, Fang decided to talk. Bad decision making on his part.

"Max, would you kindly get off of me?"

I glared down at him. Then, I smoothed out my expression. In a calm, even voice, I spoke to him. "Either I get off after killing you, or I stay on a living, breathing Fangie Boy." I gave him my most angelic smile.

Iggy talked to me. God, will any of the boys here shut up?! "Max, please just let me in, and you can close the force feild right back behind me. Promise." Sighing loudly, I pulled the force feild down, Iggy stepped in, and I closed the force feild again. Iggy walked over to me and kneeled by my side.

I leaned up slightly, and pressed a kiss to his lips. I heard Fang growl. ( I decided that I would abandon all ideas of Fang dating someone. That would make this so story better, I think.) "What are you growling about, Fang? I mean, after telling me to get out of my own house and calling, stupid, ugly, harsh, etc., I would think you didn't like me."

Iggy wraps and arm around my waist, slowly pulls me off Fang. I don't resist, I am extremely tired for some reason. I took down the force feild, and my flock let the old flock go. They immediately ran to Fang, who was still on the floor.

Suddenly, Angel turned to me, hold a gun, pointed straight at my head.

Crap.
