A few day later it was Thursday, after school I went to Dance Your Heart Out Club at our school. I am the oldest there and the only 8th grader there and it is weird but I like it, there used to be another girl but she got excepted to a performing arts school. So now I help with the dances and the teacher is extremely nice. Then once we learn and perfect the dances we perform them at a football game during half time, and I enjoy it every time. Then later on I have dance lessons in hip hop and ballroom. Max started dance lessons too, she does ballroom then hip-hop so we walk home together. Yeah I kind-of forced her into ballroom because I was getting lonely. Fang and Iggy hang out in the coffee shop across the street for some reason, for Fang it is because he likes Max and for Iggy it might be that he likes me or just wants some guy time with Fang and not have to watch what he says if Gazzy's around, so anyway they typically walk with us, but they were running late so we started walking. When we were going past the school I heard some noises coming from behind the rundown supplies closet, which is basically a shed. I asked Max if she had heard it too and she nodded her head. We went around back to see who it was, expecting to find people kissing since that is typically the case, but instead we found five guys from the football team talking about something so we listen in.

"Why do we have to do this again, I mean she is decently pretty and very nice." said a guy that is very familiar I just can't remember who it is.

"Because if you don't want Brooke to have something be done to you then I suggest you do it." said Brooke's boyfriend, Parker Smith, who is also quarterback of the football team and all-star of the basketball team

"Your right, I guess." said the other guy.

"Well does anyone else have any questions? Okay then let's review Kaley comes home this way from dance or whatever she does in town and we jump out and ambush her." said Parker

"What about her friend Max she seems pretty defensive for her since she is a little shyer." said one guy.

"She probably like any other girl talks big but can't act big, also if she could fight she probably could only take out one of us which leaves four of us for Kaley." replied Parker

"Your right okay let's get ready." responded the other guy.

Well this didn't sound to good, at least for us they underestimated us way too much. Over the last few days I have been learning street fighting Maximum Ride style. A brief overview of the most important things are never take your eyes off the opponent and it doesn't matter if you are fair or not as long as you win the fight you will live another day/not suffer from severe injury.

We finally came out of our hiding spot and I said, "I really think you underestimated us what do you think, Max?"

"I totally agree," she replies "Yeah we may be girls but that doesn't mean we don't know how to kick butt."

"Oh yeah," says a guy, "bring it on."

"Fine, but you asked for it." Max says. After she says that he lunges at her she does a quick dodge and gets behind him and kicks his feet out from under him and he passes out to a blow she made to his head. "That was too easy," she said. The next one came at me. My type of fighting is using human weak spots and if necessary punches and kicks, so that means I know all the pressure points to the human body so I did a few pointed punches (meaning hand straight and figures pointed) to his stomach quickly got behind him and knock his feet out from under him. Max and I both went through the next two guys, one for me and one for her, very easily. We were left with one, the star quarter back, he is Brookes current boy friend and my ex-boyfriend the only reason why he dated me because of a dare. (Yeah let's just say I have some unresolved anger for him.) He looked at Max and faked lunging at her and got me I was slightly expected that, but he still got me on the ground. I used most of my strength to get him to roll over so that I am on top. I quickly jumped off of him into a position for ready a fist fight.

He then said, "Kaley I still have feeling for you, if you want to get back to.."

I didn't even let him finish the sentence before I said "Ohh that is so sweet but no I absolutely hate you," knowing that it was completely fake what he was about to say then jumped at him feet first and hit him square in the chest.

"Fine suit yourself," he replied. We were circling each other ready to strike when the other lunged.

I finally said, "Look if we aren't going to fight, then I am leaving because I am tired of going in circles."

"Okay if that's what you want, I just want to remind you that you asked for it," exactly what I thought he was going to do already anticipating that I stepped to the side and punched him in the rib. We each threw punches and he was pretty good, but not as good as anyone in the flock including Angel, I was losing he got me to the ground and was going to punch my face when a figure crashed into him, I got up as quickly as possible and joined the fight.

When we had got him knocked out, the guy said "That's what you get for trying to hurt my girl," then blushed because he realized he said that out loud, without even looking I figured out that it was Iggy. I thanked him and threw my arms around him and hugged him still keeping in mind that Fang and Max were watching us. I then started going around to the people that we hurt and healing them so that they only left with minor bruises. When I got to the guy that was familiar who had stood up for me before, I healed him completely, it was basically my way of saying thank-you for standing up for me. When his eyes fluttered open I realized who it was, it was a guy that I met in kindergarten and I had a crush on and apparently had a crush on me too, his name was Jacob Boomer. He thanked me for healing him and we, me and Iggy, helped him home with Fang and Max trailing behind. It was kind of awkward explaining what happened, but his mom understood, and invited us in for a little bit and that way we could call my mom and have her pick us up, we politely declined. Once the door closed I explained to them what that was about making sure that I left out that I had a crush on him, but Max knew that I wasn't giving full detail and gave me a look that was we will talk about this later.

When we got home my mom was completely worried, we told her what happened and she was fine with it and then went to make a phone call to make sure Jacob was alright. Max and I headed upstairs to make sure all our homework had been done, which it had, so we have the rest of the day to ourselves. I was just about to go down stairs when she said my name, I turned around. I knew what she was going to say I told her one second and stuck my head out both doors to make sure that no was spying on us when I finally felt that no one was watching I told her about Jacob and Parker all she did was absorbed it, when I finished she understood completely. We then hung out together the rest of the weekend.
