Hey guys so… I've realized that what I'm writing now has nothing to do with the initial plotline and I have no idea where I'm going with this, but I do have an idea so that I can turn this around and make them go back to school and stuff, but I don't know. You guys decide? Should I end it or continue it. But, if I continue it, it's going to be way more intense so…yeah. : )

MAX'S POV

In front of me, on the ground fell back from when I had punched her. Weak I had thought. She probably wasn't an eraser, but I couldn't be too sure. A boy, from behind her called out her name, but I didn't catch it. I was too busy focusing on quick moves of attack. The girl had electric, glowing mint green eyes goldish, brownish hair that flowed down her back to her waist. Behind her was a tall boy that looked my age with golden amber eyes and blond hair. Who were they?

SIERAS'S POV

I looked around at all of the people surrounding me. In front of me, there was a girl about my age with long dirty blond hair, light brown eyes, and a slim figure, but the look that she gave off was menacing. Next to her standing was a tall, tanned and muscular figure with black hair and dark brown eyes, almost black. His expression seemed mostly stoic. Behind them stood a small boy and girl that looked identical. The girl looked about seven with bright golden blond hair that were in perfect curls and looked beautiful with her very bright electric blue eyes, that looked really innocent but devious at the same time. The boy was almost exactly the same but looked a little bit older and more enthusiastic than devious. Than off to the side was a tall, pale looking guy that was muscular but not as much as the dark haired one. He had strawberry blond hair and had very blue eyes. Holding hands stood a dark skinned girl with brown hair and light brown eyes, and a slim figure. With a very excitable expression. They all wore tattered clothes, but didn't really look like they could be homeless.

"Who are you? The first girl asked, glaring.

I held the burning right side of my face from where she had punched me.

"Uh-I-uh m-" Luke came over and helped me stand up, protectively standing in front of me, glaring at the girl in front of us.

"Luke, that's Sierra" Luke said pointing at him and then behind at me.

"Where did you come from? Who are you part of?"

Luke spoke up again. "Listen, we just came from the beach and we were walking around , nothing much, were not trying to kill you or anything." He laughed it off, but they weren't laughing. "No sense of humor much? Who are you?" They looked skeptical at first, but then, the girl released her glare. "I'm Max, this is Fang, Angel, Gazzy, Iggy, and Nudge." Max said pointing at each one of them, saying their names.

I spoke up and asked, "Can we please have a little food?" Another girl who was Nudge I think smiled brightly.

"Yea, of course you can!" She lead us over to the camp fire where on a stick they were roasting fish above the fire. These kids seemed as if they've been living in the woods for years. I decided now was a good time to ask them what they were doing here.

I looked around nervously, before asking, "So, what exactly are you doing out in the woods like this?"

Conversation with one another quickly died down and the one that looked like the leader of all of them looked at me with a nervous glare.

"What, is it against the law for people to start a fire?" I narrowed my eyes but dismissed it, and turned to eating. For a long while I sat with my legs crossed leaning against a palm tree. I was still worried though. it's not just our parents were looking for but our little sister.

MAX'S POV

For a long time I was really skeptical, and we kept our distance from the new visitors. All but Angel that is. She was really eager and didn't think of keeping her distance. She says their not hiding anything, but I still stayed away. Right now Angel was talking to Luke and he was smiling back at her and listening intently to her story, and Sierra was moving a stick around in the dirt. What was she thinking?

"Angel" I called. She came running up to me with her curls bouncing. She cocked her head in question.

" Can you read her mind and tell me what she's thinking?"

"Max, I told you that their not bad" She told me defiantly

"For me Angel" She sighed and gave in. She got a look on her face that looked like she was concentrating hard.

"She's thinking about these two people, they look like her parents…nu…numbers, random numbers. Hey where have I saw those numbers before? On a car? Phone book? A coffee Shoppe? Weird.

"What?" I asked, "What numbers are you talking about?"

"3405829"

Recognition flashed over me. "Those first five numbers, I remember them from my brain attack Ange. We need to talk to her to figure out what she knows.

LINE BREAK

"okay, well Sia and I should go" Luke said. " Thanks so much for the food and everything, but we have things to do." They then both got up and started collecting all their things.

"Wait" I said, "Why did you stay here anyway? Where are you going?" They both shared glances with each other and hesitated to answer.

"Well in the morning when we woke up our parents and our little sister were gone, and a note was on the counter to only search for our sister. But these numbers st-" Luke abruptly looked her and she closed her mouth.

" What about numbers?" I had got her right where I want her. Angel had told me numbers she got from Sia and they seemed really familiar.

"Nothing." Luke affirmatively said and glared. I marched up to him defiantly and looked him in the eyes sternly, even though he was about a good inch or two taller than me.

"She can speak for herself' I spat, "Soo…" She looked pretty confused on what to do, but she told me anyway.

"Theses numbers, they keep showing up in my head, like I'm being controlled or something. I try to ignore it, but it can be pretty annoying when I'm trying to think.

"What exactly are the numbers?" Fang questioned

"3405829" The number suddenly sparked recognition in me. That was the number I had in my brain attack. I wouldn't of seen those numbers unless they weren't important, so this girl had to be important on this mission. But if I knew one thing right, their parents had something to do with Itex and so did their sister. Probably trapped there, like the usual. So I then explained everything that I had been thinking about their family and about what the numbers mean.

"…So anyways, this number, what could it mean, an address or something?" asked Nudge.

"There's only one way to find out I guess, we have to look, sense the flock and I were heading to New York, it probably has to do with something there."

"So then your staying?" Angel asked excitedly

Sia giggled. "Yes, yes we are"
