So yeah, second update for today. This chapter explains everything from the other horrible chapter. So if you haven't read the chatter before this one go read it.

I don't own Maximum Ride or the Oc's submitted.

Rebel's POV

"Let go of me!" I tried to free myself but the Eraser's grip was to strong.

He threw me into a cage in the storage area of the helicopter. I couldn't see anything around me. "Izzy, is that you?"

I gripped the bars on the cage. "Emma, they got you too?"

"They got me too." Oh God.

I gripped the bars even tighter. "Sage, how did they get you?"

"The same way they got me."

"And me."

"Me three."

"Me four."

"Oh God. Emma, Sage, Tony, JJ, Eddie, Ian how did they get all of you?" I felt on the verge of tears again.

"Well" Tony spoke "they sort of attacked your house and we were all there, except for Jared he went to look for you in your secret thinking place. Wait, exactly who are they?"

I sighed. "They are evil scientists bent on destroying my life and now yours. I wish I could explain it better but I'm not in the mood, we need to get out of here."

"And how are you here?" JJ asked me.

"I'm the one they were after. They came for me and my family." I rested my head against the bars. "And now my family thinks I betrayed them."

"But Isobel, you love them." Sage spoke "why would they think you'd betray them?"

"Because I did Sage, I work for their enemy and I never told them, I also attacked Jaegar."

"You must have had a reason." Emma said in a comforting voice.

I nodded. "I did but none of it matters; they did something to me right now, they made me say and do things that I had no control over. They made me seem heartless."

The door to the storage area opened and she walked in. "Hello Isis, nice to see you."

"What do you want?" I spat at her.

"I'm here to congratulate you; your mission was a complete success." She smiled.

"What are you talking about? I didn't kill Jaegar."

She nodded. "True but we don't care if he lives all we wanted was the Flock and the boy back together, we also wanted to get you away from there."

"I'm sorry mam; I was stupid for believing he loved me." I gasped at the words that came out of my mouth.

"I see you've learned of that little thing. Isis, meet your Voice." I stared at her in shock.

"You're the one doing that?" I turned from shock to anger. "When I get out of here I will save you for last to make your death long and painful."

She nodded. "Yes and when you do that we will kill everyone you love, including these. According to reports these are already dead."

"What are you talking about?" Tony asked.

"Don't you know? We blew up Anne walker's house."

Sage gasped. "What about everyone else?"

"They weren't in the house when it blew up." I told them. "They were with me."


Iggy's POV

The ones that were left went to Max's house, except for Jared. He asked to be taken home after learning that his brother was dead.

Sky, Eli and I walked with Max and her family. No one spoke until we were in the house, everyone spoke them.

"How could this happen?"

"What are we going to tell everyone's families?"

"How could she do this?"

"How did she know about this?"

"Why would she betray us?"

"We should have never trusted her."

"She is going to pay for this."

"We were her friends."

"She was just pretending."

"No she really loved him."

"She did what was necessary."

"EVERYBODY SHUT UP!" I screamed.

Once everyone was quiet and seated I spoke again. "I know everyone's confused, but arguing isn't going to help."

Max stood. "Nothing is going to help now, they're all dead."

I nodded. "They are dead but why?"

Jag sat up. "They wanted us dead."

I clenched my jaw. "I know that but why?"

Nick spoke up. "Because; we're failed experiments."

Sky nodded. "Not just you, us too."

"Why would they want you?" Max asked.

"You tell us first." Sky answered. "Why do they want all of you?"

"We don't have to tell you anything." Max said.

Sky stood up to face her. "We don't either."

"They're mutants." Ariel spoke up.

We stared at her in shock. "How did you..?"

She pointed to Sky. "The second she started talking she weakened her mind blocks."

I looked at Sky then at her. "But how..?"

"I'm a mind reader. So is Jaegar." She pointed at him.

I looked at all of them. "Who are you really?"

Max looked at Nick and he nodded. "We're mutants, like you."

"When you say like me… what kind of mutant?" I asked.

"Bird-kids." She took off her jacket to show me her wings.

I stood up and walked over to her, her wings were white with brown spots all around.

I looked up at her face. "Maximum Ride?"

She nodded. "And the Flock."

I stepped back and turned around. "We're leaving, now." Sky and Eli nodded and walked to the door. I turned to face the Flock. "I'm tired of seeing destruction everywhere I go, its better if we never see each-other again."

Max stopped me. "Wait, what kind of mutants are you?"

I looked out then looked back at her. "Sky and I are like you, Eli's the perfect human."

She nodded. "Why don't you all stay for a little bit?"

I shook my head. "No, I can't stay."

"Why?" Angel spoke. I could tell it was them, their voices hadn't changed much. "The deal?"

I nodded. "'cause of the deal."

Fang spoke up. "What was the deal?"

I smirked. "If I tell you the deal will be broken."

I was about to walk out the door when I realized I couldn't get out. I turned to Sky who was now standing with the Flock. "Really?"

She nodded. "I think we should stay."

I turned to Eli, he shrugged. "She's right, we should."

I shook my head. "I'm not staying. Never in a million years."

Sky smirked. "In that case, good luck getting out."

I decided to do whatever it takes. "Fine, but remember who helped you control the force-fields."

I felt the force-field release and walked out only to hear Eli's voice. "You're making a mistake by walking out; I thought you cared about family?"

I walked down the street not bothering to look back. I didn't stop until I was far away.

I walked so far that I didn't even notice I was in town. I saw Mrs. Rodriguez, outside the Ice-cream shop. "Hey, Ms. R."

She smiled a sympathetic smile. "Hi Ignatius, how are you?"

"Okay I guess."

She nodded. "Is your family okay?"

I frowned. "I don't know."

"Come in." She waved me over through the door. "It must be hard losing your sister."

I nodded. "It must be hard losing your only son; I'm sorry."

"It was them, wasn't it?" The tears were falling from her eyes.

I told her everything; how Isobel was actually working with them, how my family was here and I just couldn't face them, how they blew the house up.

She took me back to The Flock's house, convincing me to tell them the truth.

All throughout the car ride I thought about Rebel; how she could just betray us like this, how I promised her my family came first.

It was time to keep that promise.

So yeah, they're alive. I wasn't really going to kill them; that would be stupid considering that I need them for future chapters.

So new question: What would you do if you saw a fight going on? And be honest.

Bonus question: Were you shocked when I said Jared was the only survivor?

So give me your answers and any other questions you might have.
