AUTHORS NOTE: yo, my name is Nina and I'm continuing the Story: Darkness by Kaitie McDonahue of course I asked for her permission and she said okie dokie. I'm 14 and I'll Gladly write this story for y'all and that but before I start let me get something straight. I can't update often. Literally. okay so this is my plan.
/type chapter on iPod at home (no Internet)
2. Go to church on Sundays (church=internet) and e-mail it to Katie
3. Kaitie uplaods it! I hope and pray that she'll update.
Pretty good plan huh? So again, that means that I can't update much, but when I do, there should be a ton to read. Trust me. And I'm warning you of this story (Maddy S.!) and that if you are pure and innocent (which I highly doubt, BECAUSE you clicked on a story that has rape in it. What's wrong with you! JK) anyways, so my mind works differently than others so...yeah. And I don't know if there's going to be a lemon or not. (You perverts!)
Thanks for your... (idk) reading-ness?
Please comment & rape-ooops I mean rate. :P comments give me motivation to move onward!
(A/N okay so here's the lowdown. Fang rapes Max when they're 14 because he's drunk. Then Max gets pregnant with "the devils spawn" she calls it. So Max leaves the flock for a few years and has her kid, then Fang finds her again. He tries to apologize but she won't accept, then... Oh just read this next part of the rewrite!)
Previously on Darkness:
My mom didn't take it badly at all, actually. You know, the whole 'my daughter has been raped by her best friend who I trusted' thing. Of course, that could be because I didn't tell her. Yup, that's right. I'm a coward. Although, telling her the not-truth was pretty awful too. I had to make up a lie very quickly, because I wasn't about to tell her the truth.
But, leave it to Iggy to mess it up. He'd told Ella the first time they'd visited after I'd left. And, she'd told Mom.
So, when my mom looked right at me and said, "Maximum Ride if you don't stop lying to me this second-"
She didn't really have to get any farther before I burst into tears. Yeah, shocker. Tears. Who knew what parental guilt could do? I certainly didn't.
She sat next to me on the couch and hugged me to her, just patting my back and holding me.
"Honey, shh, it's alright now. Everything's alright," she kept saying, as if she repeated it enough times I'd believe her and she'd believe herself.
She started talking about how she'd practically killed Fang for not only doing what he did, but for making me leave. She knew it would take a hell of a lot to make me leave.
The biggest downside of the day was after all of this teary weep-fest when we were all seated around the table eating a huge dinner.
"I want Daddy to get my dinner!" Rose cried happily, looking at Fang.
"You don't have a Dad," I said harshly, making Rose burst into tears. As soon as I realized what I'd said, I looked up at Fang, whose face, usually so placated, was contorted with despair. He stood up, knocking his chair over and rushed out of the house.
"Fang, wait!" I called. But no one answered and Rose's sobs echoed in my ears. Why couldn't I just do what's best for her?
(A/N Okay, so here's where I come in and start adding! :P)
Chapter 1:
(Max POV)
I rushed out the door looking for any sign of Fang. Great, now my own daughter is pis-upset with me and so is Fang. I now officially give up on men! I stormed back into the house to find everyone (but Iggy) staring at the door leading outside where Fang had left. Ugh! I needed to think! The sun was just setting and I knew the perfect place to go to.
"Be right back!" I practically yelled and flung myself out the door. I spread my wings loving the way the wind pushed up perfectly against them, a careless like feeling.
I soared in the sky loving the breath taking view of everything. The sun was actually setting so the sky was a mix of purples, pinks, and oranges. I swooped and dived in the open sky, lazy clouds framed the horizon.
I landed on where I wanted to go. The beach. I sat down on one of those cheap-rickety-fall-apart benches they usually have at beaches and I sighed at the ocean. I turned my head, hearing a soft muffled sound. Was someone...crying? I stood up and using my superb hearing sense I led myself to an abandoned shack by the beach. There on the roof was Fang. From his silhouette I could tell that he was sobbing. Before I could build up the nerve to come on the roof with him, I saw his head whip around. He spread his wings and gently came down to where I was. I felt him land beside me and nothing else. I didn't notice that I was crying until I felt his hand come up and brush away a tear that had been slowly sliding down my cheek.
What was it about Fang that made my defenses drop so low? What was he doing to my head? I was so confused about it and just couldn't get anything straight anymore.
"Looks like I'm the one making you cry this time." he murmured. I opened my eyes to see that he was right in front of me, his face only a few inches away. I had to look up at him because or our height difference. I stared into his eyes and tried to read him as much as possible. Regret. Love. Sorrow. And most of all, Anger. He was angry at himself for what he did and he still was.
I placed my hand on his chest and felt his heart beating rapidly, actually in time with mine. As if on instinct, I laid my head there, basking in the moment. I felt his arms go around me and we didn't say anything after that.
"I've missed you every second you weren't here, Max." he whispered, his voice breaking on my name. "And I'm so sorry, that words fail me to tell you how."
"I missed you too Fang, like you-"
"Aww isn't that adorable?" A deep voice cut me off and I broke apart from Fang and stared at who the hell had ruined the moment.
"By the way Max, you're coming with me." Ari spoke the words and by the time they had finished leaving his utterly digusting mouth, Fang had tackled him to the sandy ground and had him in a deep headlock.
"First of all" Fang spit out at him, "She's not going anywhere near an asshole like you."
"Then why is she with you?" he spit back. That caught Fang off guard and he loosened his grip on Ari. I just stood there like the idiot that I am, and watched them throw down.
Then Ari suddenly literally picked Fang up and threw him into the shack near us making the old wood collapse on Fang.
Ari then lifted a gun type thing and aimed it at him. It was the same thing he had shot me with!
" No! Don't do it!" I screamed at the top of my lungs and threw myself at Ari, catching him off guard. He turned in surprise and-
Shot me. Instead of Fang.
Thats the last thing that came to my mind before I blacked out. But just before that I whispered "Fang... I love you too..."
"... You just had to shoot her didn't you?"
"I-I didn't mean to, she surprised me just before I shot the other guy!"
"No excuses Ari, she could be dead because of you. She hasn't even moved in 2 weeks! And now the whole fu-freaking world is probably screwed because of you!"
I heard them before I saw them. I could tell I was in a room, but then again who knows? I knew that Jeb was yelling at Ari, I just heard them. I opened one eye a tiny bit and looked around.
I was in a room made comepletely of cement. The ceiling, walls, and floors were a dull gray. I half-expected myself to be hooked up to an IV or something hospital-like. I felt the cheap scratchy blanket on my bare skin and-
Wait. BARE SKIN? I looked down under the covers to see my naked body, with scratches in some areas that I have no idea how the hell the got there. My mind immeadiatly shifted to Fang. Was he okay? Where was he? How bad are his injuries? The questions kept running through my mind, over and over, as if repeating itself would create and answer. Goodness, I was hungry too. When was the last time I ate?
(A/N since I'm using my iPod I can't use italics so I'm just going to put the Voice's words in quotes like these= ')
'Max, do you know where you are?' the voice asked me, interrupting the worries I had runnin through my mind.
'Of course not! How could I know?' I thought back, exasperated.
'Use your surroundings...' the Voice said, trailing off.
Oh great. Now I have a confusing riddle type thing and worries to deal with! What else to I have to put up with?
"Good, Max. You're awake." I heard Ari's voice break through the silence, startling me. "You know Max, we Erasers, age faster than you bird-humas do. So as of this moment I'm older than you. I'm 20 now." he said, as if I wasn't naked in a concrete room in the middle of who-knows-where!
"Okay. Your point is?" I said feeling annoyed. Whatever Ari was going to do didn't need any sugar-coating. "Just tell me what you want!" I then shouted.
"Fine. We'll just do this the hard way then." I then realized that I couldn't move. Was I paralyzed? No, I could still crane my neck to look at him, but the rest of my body...nope, nothing.
"Can you move Max,darling?" Ari asked me, his voice sickeningly sweet.
"Whats it to you?" I retorted back. I was not in the mood for playing games.
"I will take that as a no. Okay, let's get started!" he moved to the door, closed it and locked it in one swift motion. I noticed that he only had shorts on and that kind- of scared me. He went to the light switch and dimmed the lights.
"A-Ari," I said, hating how my voice cracked. "What are you doing?"
"You. I'm going to make you mine, Maximum Ride. You're going to be mine, and only mine." He got on the bed with me and ripped the only piece of dignity I had left. He took the blanket off and stared at my naked form in front of I saw his eyes. They had lust in them and that's it. No love whatsoever. Just lust. He got on top of me and said,
"Dont worry, Max. You're going to enjoy this. It's not going to be like why you had with Fang, it's going to be...Better. Much more...pleasurable." He chuckled and began.
(Fang POV)
(*WARNING*Fang has a very wordy mind so I hope you don't mind cuss words...)
A scream pierced that night and I recognized it as Max's. She rarely screamed unless she was in deep pain or in deep shit. And here I was, being bandaged up by Iggy, who insisted I needed it.
"Iggy, I don't need these damn things." I said pulling on one of them. "I'll heal and we HAVE to find Max. I don't think she ran away, but I KNOW that Ari took her. Rose is going berserk and who knows what Ari could be doing to her!" I stood up, my rage getting the best of me. "Lets go now! I'll be oustide waiting for everyone - actually just you come with me, Iggy. Leave everyone else back to take care of Rose." I think that's the most I've said in 4 years. Holy shit. But theres no time to ponder about it now.
Iggy silently followed me outside and told everyone that we were going to look for Max. When complaints started to come out of Nudge's mouth, I shut her up by sayin, "We need all of you here to protect Rose and keep her safe." They nodded and we left.
I flew up to the roof of the shack and sat down. Where the fuck could Ari have taken her? I knew I didn't have much time, but for some reason I couldn't tell why.
"...Agh!" I yelled and gripped my head. What was going on? Was I getting a horrible headache like Max was or-
'Hello Fang.' A voice said inside of my head that WASNT MINE.
'Who the fuck are you?' I thought back. Not caring enough for small talk.
'Fang, that's not important right now. I know where Max is.'
I immeadiatly shut up (in my head) after that wanting that...Voice to explain more.
'Okay so where is she?'
'...At the bottom of the heart...' Then I felt it leave my head like a possession was over or something. I shook my head, as if it would help clear my thoughts. What the fuck did 'at the bottom of the heart' mean?
Well, bottom could be like, underground. And... My mind was racing. I'm so close to finding Max, I almost am positive that I'm right!
Okay, so bottom means underground, and the heart of this city is... The Capitol! Yes! That's it! I know where Max is! I know where Max is!
"I know where she is!" I yelled and took off. Of course i felt kind of but not really guilty about leaving Iggy like that, but he'll catch up. He's good like that.
Okay so I know this sounds cheesy but wherever you are, Max, I'm coming to find you and to rescue you!
(Max POV)
No. No, no no. That couldn't have just happened. No. Not real. This is a nightmare and I'm going to wake up ANY moment now.
...
ANY MOMENT NOW! Dang it, I knew it. I've been raped. Twice. In one lifetime. Great. And this was by my 'supposed brother?' I opened my eyes to pitch black darkness. And found myself to still be naked on the bed. And I was cold too. The blanket sat over to the side, splattered with my blood. No, it wasn't a period (eeew) and it wasn't from pleasure (is that possible?) either.
It had been painful. Worse than Fangs too. Now I'm fricken screwed. (no pun intended)
At least I could move now, but I was still handcuffed.
I hated feeling so damn useless.
I stared out into the darkness, wondering when they were actually going to feed me. I'm starving.
As if Ari had heard my thoughts, he came busting throught the door with a tray of who-knows-what on his right arm. On his left arm he had a bottle of water. Wow, I'm so happy that they remembered that I was human! Actually, human-ish.
"Good morning, Max." He said, setting the tray next to my legs. My STILL exposed legs.
"Dont expect me to play nice with you, Ari. Considering you raped me earlier."
"Awwww, Max. Rape isn't a nice word." he tittered his finger at me like I was a kindergartener. "Last night wasn't 'rape'," he sneered the word. "Last night was two people making love."
"Okay number 1: I don't love you. Number 2: we're not 'people'. And Number 3: ewwww, and Number 4: Ari, if we were the last two beings on Earth I still wouldn't 'make love' to you."
He glared at me. Yup. Just sat there an glared. At me. Agh! god dammit Fang where the hell are you?
"Max, honey, I still love me a nice spicy girl. Come here..."
(FANG POV)
Dammit! We're underground now,in a long long concrete hallway, but there's too many fucking rooms! Where the hell are we supposed to start?
"Okay Iggy. There's a ton of rooms. You take the left side and I'll take the right. Do whatever it takes to get to Max!" Iggy gave one solemn look and kicked down the fist door on the right that I saw. Nope, no Max here. Next door, nope, she's not there... Is she even in any of these damn rooms?
Then I found her. Of course I've never seen her naked, but I didn't want to see her naked this way. My eyes then wandered to Ari who was on top her... Naked? What the fuck! He was... No. No. NO! Before I even knew it, I was over there in a millisecond. Nobody even noticed me. I picked up Ari by his hair and yelled "Bad DOG!" and I threw him across the room. I then looked at Max, who was staring at me in shock.
"H-how did you d-do that!" she whispered in between gasps as I broke the handcuff chains one by one with my hands.
"I don't know, but I'm getting you the hell out of here." I brought the blanket over to her, covered her, and asked her to stand up. She then whimpered and said, "No Fang, I'm bleeding. I can't. I think he put a drug in me or something" She then growled in the general direction of where I threw Ari. We've got to move quick.
I swiftly picked her up in my arms and wrapped the blanket even tighter around her. I'm going to kill that bastard Ari one day. I swear.
"Don't worry, Max. Everything is going to be okay, I'm going to get Iggy than we are-" I felt a hand close around my throat and I couldn't speak. I felt my eyes roll back and I plunged into darkness. The last thing I heard was Max screaming my name.
