A/N: I just realised that no matter how I go about it, if my story is to carry on as planned, Fax won't happen for at least another 5 chapters. But I promise it will be there! Eventually, but that just means you will have to keep on reading.

Max POV

Right, think Max, think. Where could you find some bird kid that you didn't know existed, who has "saved" Fang for you? Or kidnapped him? I shook the thought away.

Trust your instincts Maximum. I told you you'd gone the wrong way.

OH, great! He/she/it is back again, dumb voice! Well voice, what the hell do you want me to do about it now, I did the wrong thing, that's wonderful, but how do you expect me to fix that? I thought sarcastically.

Listen to me Maximum. That's all I ask.

Ok, voice, you have my temporary undivided attention.

You are going to have to leave the flock Max.

Say WHAT? Hell no! Never. I promised them. There was a reason I went for them. Fang can take care of himself.

Can he? And I suppose you know exactly where he is now right? You know that he's safe.

Umm. Sort of. I know he's safe.

How Max? How do you know that this girl hasn't kidnapped Fang? How do you know he isn't in an even bigger danger now than you can imagine?

What do you know?! I accused

Listen Max! Leave the flock and head for California. Send them somewhere else.

How do you expect me to do that exactly? How do you expect me to trust you? I don't even have a frigging idea who you are and you expect me to trust you?! Just up and leave my flock?

Max, Fang needs you right now.

Damn it, unfortunately that is all the persuading I needed right now, the thought that Fang could be in danger and it was all my fault laid heavy on my heart. I needed him. And he needed me. I sighed, took a deep breath and did what I would no doubt later hate myself for. I hated trusting other people. So I called to the rest of the flock, "Guys, I'm jetting off ahead at super speed to look for clues, I'm, not going to leave you for long though I promise. (damn I hated lying) Just meet me at Mom's house as soon as you get there. I think we should be able to get some clues there at least and if not get some supplies, we're in for an exhausting few days. (I hoped days at the longest)".

With that I adjusted course as though I was going to Mom's house, but with the plan of changing course when I got further from the flock for California.

Right voice, where are you taking me?

A/N: Once again, i'm sorry if it was sort, but this was really all i could say for this chapter. But i have the next few planned out and I will get them up asap. Thanks for reading guys, your support makes me happy.
