Hey folks! I'm back! Sorry for a late update. School, homework, things happening, Me swimming in my pool cause I'm a fish. :D Anywho. Here's the chappie!

Max POV:

HAHAHA! POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE!

"Max, SHUT THE EVERLOVING HECK UP," I heard Edward call from the next room.
"Stop reading my mind then!" I went back to my game.

I was on the computer playing "Poke the Penguin." Really fun game. It's so addictive!

POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE- what the?

The Penguin whipped out a flame thrower and BURNED MY FICKEN HAND!

Jerk penguin.

I clicked "Poke again." There he was. Sitting there. Being all innocent. On it's on.

POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE- Wha?

Dude! The penguin got it's crazy eyes on, jumped and BIT MY FINGER OFF!

That penguin sucks. And it's going down.

POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE- What the crap?

The penguin turned into merlin and shot lightning at my hand. My hand twitched, then turned into dust.

Turd penguin!

I clicked "Poke again"

POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE- Wait a second!

The penguin suddenly started cussing! Like a trucker! Just going off and exploding. Oh wait, he did explode.

I heard Iggy's voice from the other room, "Hey Max, quit cussing!"

"Very funny Iggy," I yelled out.

I kept poking the penguin, for a long time. It was addicting. Like, super addicting.

Suddenly there was a hairy hand on my shoulder. I looked over at it.

It was an eraser hand.

I started panicking in my head. Why hadn't I heard them come in? What had they done to the Flock?

Why hadn't the Cullens killed them? How'd Edward or Angel not hear them?

"Max, we need to talk." It said in its deep voice. I calmed down. Then in one fluid motion I jumped up and punched the Eraser in its face.

Only as my fist was flying through the air that I realized it wasn't an eraser.
It was Alice.

I attempted to stop my fist, but my fist was already flying. It made contact with her face, but I have a feeling that out of the two of us, I'm the only one who felt pain.

And boy did it hurt!

Even with my specially modified bird-kid body, my hand hurt. I practically flew back into my chair.
"Max! What the heck!" Alice said, staring at my now throbbing hand.

"I was just about to ask you the same question! Don't sneak up on me! You're as bad as Fang!"

Oww! Oh my gosh my hand was turning red. It hurt super bad.

Not as bad as getting shot in the wing, but still pretty bad.

"Sorry. Didn't mean to scare you! I needed to talk to you though. Let me get some ice first." She used her vampire speed and came back in about a second with a bag of ice and, put it on top of my hand.
I shifted around in my chair to look at her. "What did you want to talk to me about?"

Alice bit her lip. "Well…I just…Max, how old are you?"

"15."

"How long have you been 15?"

I shrugged. "A while." Alice did a face-palm. "What did I do?"

"Just…don't say that…ever." She mumbled something about someone named Stephanie and said a not very nice word at the end of her sentence.

"Okay." I went back to my game.

POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE

"Look, Max…I…I think that it's time that the flock grew up!"

I froze. I turned to look at her. "WHAAAAAAT?"

Alice face-palmed again. "That sounded weird. That's not what I meant. I meant…I think it's time the flock had a birthday."

"Oh." I resumed my game.

POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE POKE!

Alice started rock back and forth on her heels. "Well?"

I stopped playing and turned to look at her. "Weeeell?"

"Well can the flock have a birthday?" I made a no-duh face.

"You tell me physic." Alice crossed her arms and gave me her smug look. The one that reads 'You did not just say that. Shut up before I kill you.'

"Yes the flock can have a birthday!" I yelled. "Gosh!" I turned back to my game. Alice impatiently tapped her foot impatiently. I rolled my eyes. "Yes Alice, you can plan the party."

Alice jumped up and down. "Thank you Max you won't regret it!" and she walked away. I continued my game. Bella came up behind me as I kept poking my penguin. I reset and poked it again.

"Max, did you just let Alice have total control over planning a party?" I nodded but didn't turn around. Enough distractions! Let me poke my penguin in peace!

"Uh huh." I said absentmindedly.

"Do you realize what you've done?" Bella sounded like I'd just shot her puppy.

"Nuh uh," I said keeping my eyes on the screen.

Bella grabbed my face and looked me in the eye. "You just let Alice have full control of planning a party."

Her words sank in and I remembered a story Bella told us about Alice planning a party.

Behind me, the penguin shot my hand with a shot gun. A shot rang out though my head.
Oh crap. What had I done?

Zoe: Alright! I'm sorry it's so short, but it was hurried a bit because I'm so lazy. So here's the chapter. R&R? Please? As a birthday present to me? It's my birthday in two days! So please!
