Disclaimer: I do not own Maximum Ride. I do, on the other hand, own Fang.
Fang: You don't own me!
Author: Will you let me own you if I say you are the hottest guy there ever was?
Fang: Maybe
Max: Fang have you given yourself to a fan-girl again?!?!?!
Author: Again?!?!?! I thought what we had was special! (Author breaks down sobbing)
Max: Step away from my man, fan-girl!
Author: Step away from my man, fictional character!
Fang: I'll just be going now… (Backs away slowly)
Author and Max in unison: Where do you think you're going?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Fang: Meep.

I quickly made my way to Iggy's room. Didn't even knock. Just barged in and found Iggy lying on his bed. "Iggy!" I hissed at him.
"What, Max? Can't you see I'm busy?"
"We need to talk. Get up." I think it was the tone in my voice that let him know I wasn't kidding, because he stood up next to his bed. He walked over to me.
"What, Max?"
"Iggy! You know what! Why did you hit Nudge?!" I practically screamed at him.
"She scared me. God. And she never shuts up. It serves her right."
I was shocked. It serves her right? I don't think so! "IGGY! How can you say that? You hit her! It's totally not like you!"
"Yeah, well, she deserved it."
Before I even knew what I was doing, I slapped Iggy. Oh my God, I slapped Iggy! How did I come to this?
"You'll regret that, Max." He started to turn away, but stopped himself. He brought his hand up and slapped me back. Not just a sissy slap either. It was a full-on-all-your-strength slap, and it hurt. A LOT. I sucked in my breath and bit my tongue.
Just walk away, Max. Just walk away. I told myself.
Maximum, Maximum, Maximum. You are very foolish indeed.
SHUT UP! I screamed in my head. I slowly tuned away from Iggy, who was now smiling malevolently at me. There was something strange about that smile…
GOD, VOICE! JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!
As you wish, Maximum. As you wish…
