Chapter 7

Fang Pov

Wow that was close. They finally left. Max picked up Angel and went with one of the tan guys.

I was angry, I wanted to kick his ass. Who did he think he was with my Max? It wasn't going to be for long. Once I take the school down everything can go back to normal.

After I was sure they wouldn't be able to hear me or see me flying, I took off and headed back to the school. Time to put my plan in play.

I stretched my wings as I woke up yawning. I walked in to the lab where Jeb was.

"I need to go for a couple of days." I mumbled to Jeb.

"Oh? Why is that?" He questioned.

I stayed silent with my arms crossed. He sighed. "Fine very well then. Be back in 4 days." He said turning back to his lab work. I nodded.

I walked to the front door of the building. The guard nodded and stepped out of the way. I took a running start then unflurred my wings and began towards Iggy's house.

It was sunny out. I was gliding through the air. The wind felt good on my face.

I wonder if Iggy is mad at me. Gazzy is with Iggy I wonder if they're both mad. Maybe they would understand. I shrugged those thoughts away and kept flying.

Max POV

I yawned. Angel must have already been awake, she wasn't laying next to me.

I looked at the clock. It was about 10a.m. I sighed. I really hoped that Angel forgot about the whole "Fang" thing last night. I know I was trying to.

I got out of bed and headed into the living room. Jacob was sitting on the couch watching T.V. I yawned again. He looked over at me.

"Good morning. How did you sleep?" He asked. I ignored the question. "Where's Angel?" I asked.

"Alice picked her up earlier, they were going to do make overs or something." He said smirking. I hated the idea of Angel being away with people, well vampires that I still wasn't very comfortable with.

"She's safe. I promise." Jacob said with a half-smile. He must have noticed my face expression about the whole situation. I nodded.

I walked into the kitchen and opened the fridge. Jacob was right behind me.

"So what do you want to do today?" Jacob asked. I shrugged. I wasn't sure if I was going to go get Angel and just forget about all this. Though I know if I did that Angel wouldn't be too pleased and nether would Jacob. I sighed.

"Is everything okay?" Jacob asked putting a hand on my shoulder. I tensed and he took his hand off. "Sorry." He muttered.

"I'm fine, just thinking." I said giving him a reassuring smile. He smiled back at me. I closed the fridge.

"What are you thinking?" Jacob questioned. I just looked at him. I didn't really know what to say.

"That's okay you don't have to tell me I was just-"He trailed off. I was getting uncomfortable. He must have noticed.

"Want to go for a walk?" He asked. I smiled. "I'd like that." I said. He smiled back.

We walked out the front door. "I know a path in the woods come on." He said walking towards the trees. I nodded and followed.

We were walking the path in the woods for a while. It was mostly silent. You could hear birds chirping, and of course with my raptor hearing I could hear sounds from further away as well.

We walked into a clearing. It was beautiful out here. The tree tops were swaying in the wind. It smelled like pine. There was a couple of logs in the middle of the clearing.

I walked over to one of the logs and sat down unflurring my wings. I leaned back on my hands and closed my eyes taking a deep breath.

"It's amazing out here isn't it?" Jacob said coming to sit down. I nodded in agreement.

I opened my eyes. Jacob was sitting on a log right across from me, looking at me. I sat up straight and looked at him.

His eyes are beautiful. They were a dark brown and on the insides a lighter brown. Most people probably wouldn't be able to tell but with my raptor vision I could tell fairly easily.

He leaned closer to my face. I just sat there frozen. I remembered how Fang used to have this effect on me.

I stood up and took in a breath of air. "I'm going to go for a fly." I said then taking a running start, jumping into the air and flapping. Soon I was high above the forest flying over all the trees.

I felt bad just leaving Jacob like that, but I really needed some time to think.

Jacob POV

Stupid I should have never done that. I wanted to kiss her so bad. She's not ready and I understand that.

I sighed. I ran and morphed into my wolf form. 'Jacob, there you are. We need you at the beach now.' Sam thought at me. The pack can hear each-others thoughts when we're in wolf form. 'Be right there.' I thought back.

Once I got to the beach I morphed back into my human form. I walked over to where the rest of the pack was standing.

"There you are, finally." Said Paul. "Sorry." I mumbled. I had taken the long way so I could think.

"So what's up?" I asked. "We think Victoria is back in the area. She must have found out that the Cullen's killed James, She's pissed." Sam said.

"Fabulous." I said sarcastically. James was Victoria's husband. Now Max could be in more danger.

"So what are we going to do about it? Have you told the Cullen's yet?" I asked. Sam replied. "I'm not sure yet. The Cullen's already know."

I nodded. "I think we should see what she wants before we take extreme measures." Said Sam.

"Okay but if she goes near Angel I'll kill her." Paul said. "Yes or Max, then she's dead." I chimed in. Sam nodded in agreement.

"Alright we'll talk more later." Sam said. He then morphed into his wolf form and ran into the woods. Everyone else followed him.

I hope Max made it back ok. She seemed upset when she flew off.

Max POV

I was on my way flying back to Jacob's house when of course something had to go wrong. I mean I am Max so I could never have a good day can I? No of course not.

Ari flew up behind me and grabbed my leg. We dropped about 50 feet.

I swung my other leg and kicked him in the face hard. He let go of my leg and came at my face with his claws. I dodged.

I punched him in the gut, he dropped about 10 more feet. He then flew back to my level and swung his claw at my side, but this time he hadn't missed.

He got me in the same spot he had gotten Fang a while back. Fang almost died when this happened.

Now I was falling from the sky. "So long Maximum Ride!" Ari screamed as I fell.

I started to hit branches and leafs. I was getting close to the ground. I landed hard in the middle of the forest.

"MAX!?" I heard what sounded like Jacob scream my name. I then lay there in shock. Had this really just happened? Or was this another horrible nightmare. I then drifted into darkness.
