A/N: Sorry about the title. I couldn't think of anything else.

Max's POV:

I sincerely hated Fang. He was acting like the biggest jerk ever. For the next week he avoided not only me but also everyone. It was pissing me off because I thought we were all friends' right? But no, he just blows us off and sits with Brigid and her gang of bitches and sluts. I mean seriously, what the heck?

"Can you stop thinking about how Fang is such a jerk? Your thoughts are over riding mine." Matt thought at me. I turned my head to look at him. After a week in school we still had to sit on each other's laps so my face was so close to him I could feel his breath on my face. And if you haven't figured it out yet, we're in the car on our way home. I smiled innocently at him, which he saw right through.

"You know it's true. Don't deny it." I thought back at him. He rolled his eyes at me and tightened his grip on my waist in a comforting hold.

"Of course I know. If it wasn't for the fact that this is his car I would have kicked him out ages ago." He replied to me in my head. I rolled my eyes at him and turned my head to the window. It was quiet in the car. Everyone was thinking. I really wanted to know what they were thinking because everything would be easier if I did. I could cheat on tests so I don't have to study. Or I could figure out what's going on in my friends' minds. I could do a lot of things and it would be totally awesome.

"That would be awesome. Want to test it out?" Matt thought at me. I looked at him eagerly and nodded my head vigorously. He laughed at me and the others glance at us but we ignored them.

"Okay. How do we try? Do we just concentrate on being able to read their minds or what? Do we just think 'I want to read this persons mind?' I asked him in my mind.

"Try concentrating first. That sounds like a more reasonable." He replied back. I nodded and tried concentrating on reading Ella's mind. I don't know if it was hers or not because I didn't get anything.

"Everyone get out." Fang said, short and simple. I was concentrating too much to really understand his words. Matt looked around and unbuckled himself and I absently got out. I started walking a random way and saw Matt walking after me. I then felt something in my mind. I reached to it in my mind and imagined it coming closer to me. At first that's what happened but what was weird was that it looked like a white dot in my vision.

"Max?" I heard Matt ask warily in my head. All of a sudden when the white dot almost fully enclosed my vision in white a blinding pain came all over me. It had a weird ringing noise in my head and I fell to the ground in agony as I welcomed the blackness engulfing me.

[This line's name is 'Billy-Bob-Joe XVI (that's the 16th for those of you unable to read Roman numerals.)]

I felt so mentally tired it was unbearable. My head felt so worn out I just wanted to slip unconscious again.

"This is so weird." I heard someone mutter. "Why won't they leave me alone with Max? Great they just left maybe they'll stay away from us." I then realized that it was Matt. I then felt that he was worried about me. Wait…I can sense what he's feeling? This is so weird. A sudden gasp came out of me and I immediately started shaking uncontrollably and I don't know why.

I heard a beeping noise increase. Am I in a hospital? NO! I can't be in a hospital! They'll see my wings! They can't see my wings! The beeping noises increased and all of a sudden a hand enclosed in mine. I immediately knew it was Matt's. It was hard and tender and fit perfectly into mine as if it was meant to be in my hand if that makes any sense. I slowly stopped shaking and the beeping got slower and slower until it was normal.

"Everything's okay, Max. We're not in the school." I heard Matt whisper in my ear. I nodded in my head. I squeezed the hand that was being held by Matt. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Matt smiling comfortingly down at me. I tried to make a smile at him but it turned out as more of a grimace.

"Where are we then?" I asked groggily. I tried to sit up but he held me down.

"We're at the vet's office. Your mom works here so since it's closed she took us here." Matt explained.

"But how did she know what happened?" I asked confused, lying back down on the white bed.

"Ella called her freaking out about what happened and she came over in a hurry and brought you over here and tried working on finding out what's wrong." His eyes became filled with worry. He looked down and I felt a wave of guilt and worry-from him. What's happening? A new power? 'If it is that would be pretty sweet…' I thought.

"You worried me Max, scared me, too. You wouldn't wake up and the only thing saying that you were alive was that annoying beeping machine." He said. I laughed a bit. He didn't know that the beeping machine was a heart monitor.

"Matt, the 'beeping machine' is a heart monitor." I said amused. He looked at me with a sad smile. We looked at each other and I looked directly into his eyes. Everything around me seemed to disappear as I looked into his eyes. I don't know what exactly happened but all I know is that we leaned toward each other and his lips were almost touching mine. It sent shivers down my spine but I enjoyed it.

But…this couldn't happen…

I pulled away and breathed the word, "No." Matt looked at me hurt and confused. He took my hands in his.

"Why?" He asked sadly. He still looked in me in the eye with his hurt eyes and it pained me that I was the one to hurt him.

"Because…what if…what if we're related?" I slowly asked looking away from him. "I wouldn't want to date my brother." I closed my eyes as he let go of my hands.

"Oh…sorry." He said and I watched as he walked out of the room without another glance or word.

I didn't want him to be my sibling…

I just wanted him with me…

Ella's POV:

I watch Matt come out of Max's room with an emotionless face. I immediately started to worry and if it wasn't for Ari I would have ran into Max's room to make sure she was all right.

"She's fine. Something just made Matt upset. I don't know what but it's nothing to worry about." Ari whispered to me putting a reassuring hand on my shoulder.

I wonder if he knew that it sent an electric shock through me…

I sighed and relaxed back in my chair. Things between Ari and I are weird. I don't know if we're together or what. Max and Matt were saying how much we loved each other and they would make fun of us along with Kyle and Nudge. Is it true what they say? I know I like Ari, he was just so nice, and kind and just all around awesome person. He was funny, sarcastic, and handsome…

"Ella?" Ari asked me. I looked to him, my heartbeat skipping a beat when he looked at me with that intense stare. I raised an eyebrow at him, wanting him to continue. He looked away for a second and took a deep breath.

"I'm not sure how to say this, but I really like you. I know it's kind of sudden I just have this feeling that something's going to go wrong and I wouldn't be able to tell you it even though I should have waited until later to tell you it. Anyway, back to the point, I like you. It might be stronger then that but I'm not sure yet. I was just wondering if you liked me too?" He looked so hopeful and cute. My mind slowly registered the fact that he likes me. Who would like me? Apparently him since he just said it and was dead serious about it.

"I um…" I started. His face immediately fell. He must have taken that the wrong way. "No, I mean, it's not like that. I, I'm not…I don't know what to do…should I kiss you or something? I don't know what to do because this thing doesn't really happen to me and I like you too it's just I don't know what to do. I-" I was cut off from something cover my mouth.

I froze and realized that Ari was kissing me. I then relaxed into the kiss and brought my right hand to his hair weaving my fingers through it. He brought one of his hands to my neck and traced circles in my skin with his thumb. The kiss was sweet and soft, and I didn't think we were ready for the serious stuff. I pulled back and rested my forehead on his. I smiled at him and closed my eyes.

"I knew I should have kissed you." I whispered to him and he chuckled at me.

I wished this would last forever.

Nudge's POV:

I watched Ari and Ella kiss and sighed. They looked so cute together.

I wish I had someone to hold like them.

Max has Matt, Ella now has Ari, and even Fang has Brigid even though they look horrible together they could still go to each other. Angel has Gazzy in a sense since their twins and family.

And I don't have anybody. I just get to intertwine my own fingers with themselves.

"Are you okay, Nudge?" Kyle asked me. I looked at him with a small sad smile. I looked closely at him and saw he was really worried about me.

"Yeah, I'm okay. I was just thinking." I said honestly. He nodded understanding. He seemed on edge for something and I didn't know why.

"Do you know why Matt's acting all weird?" He asked me a few seconds later. Oh…so THAT'S what he was on edge about. He was worried about Matt…something inside of me was sad that it wasn't about me for some reason but I quickly dismissed the thought and feeling.

"No. I just know it has something to do with Max." I replied staring at my shoes. He nodded again and rubbed the back of his neck nervously.

"It's about time, you think?" He asked all of a sudden. I looked up and saw him motioning towards Ari and Ella who had their foreheads leaned against each other and they were both smiling. I wish I had someone like that…

"Yeah…I'm glad they got together." I said. I wasn't really talkative around Kyle. He just made me nervous for some reason and I don't know why.

He looked far off in thought and I wanted to know what about. "Don't you wish you had someone to hold?" He asked with a sad sigh. That's when I realized he didn't have anybody either.

"Yeah…it would be nice." I said in thought. It would be great to hold on to somebody…someone that cares…someone that's there for you.

Somebody to love…

"Hey, Nudge?" Kyle asked me after a deep breath. I looked at him with a curious gaze. He looks really cute when he was thinking hard…What? I did NOT just think that…erase the thought, erase the thought… "Want to check on Max?" He asked me standing up and holding out his hand. I looked into his eyes and nodded with a smile. "Then come on." He said and I took his hand and he and led me to Max's room.

Maybe I'm not alone after all…

Director's POV: (Marian Jensen, I think)

Yes! We finally found them. The three escaped Wolf-Hybrids. The Erasers.

I looked through my glasses at the video screen. It showed the three hybrids coming out of a veterinary clinic. I was so glad that one of the hybrids was stupid enough to howl. It must have been really upset to do something like that, but I didn't care. I found them and that's all that matters.

I watched carefully and was shocked that others had followed them. It seemed like a female adult with three teenaged girls…wait…. Why does that one look so familiar?

Oh my god…it's Maximum Ride…the three hybrids have led me to the most successful Avian-Hybrid known to the School…

I laughed happily and leaned back in my chair satisfied. I have not only found the three hybrids but also the Avian-Hybrid. Today has been going well, and nothing and I mean NOTHING could make this day better. I looked at the video screen while picking up my phone and called the head of the mechanics section. It rang for three seconds before the voice came on.

"Hello?" Dr. Roberts asked.

"This is the director speaking." I said formally a smile forming on my lips.

"Oh, director was it that you need from me?" He asked curiously.

"I need you to send about thirty-no make that fifty of your best robots to pick up a package." I said.

"What would this package be?"

"The three lost Wolf-Hybrids and Maximum Ride." I said proudly. He chuckled.

"It's about time we got those." He said happily.

"Yes it is, so it would be greatly appreciated if you send the robots as fast as possible." I said.

"We should be able to send them about noon tomorrow. I need to check them and make sure that they wont break down. I don't want the hybrids to get away this time." He explained.

"That would be perfect. Have a nice day." I said and I hung up and watched the video more clearly. I realized that one of the hybrids looked a lot like Maximum Ride….

No…. That can't be right….

I leaned toward the screen to make sure that what I was seeing was true.

It was…

I looked at Maximum Ride and saw how she looked at the hybrid, which looked like her, longingly. The hybrid, which looked like her, was depressed and I immediately cursed.

It was true…they are the ones.

We need to get rid of them, quickly if we want our plan to go through.

I stood up and shut the monitor off when Maximum Ride shot the hybrid, which looked like her, a loving look. We needed to separate them quickly before they realize their destiny. I ran to the phone and dialed the number for the mechanics section again quickly.

It rang two seconds before Dr. Roberts came on.

"Hello?" He asked.

"I don't care about preparations. Send them NOW."
