- Chapter nineteen: I'm a cage-locked bird -
"Today's headline in Gossip News, famous supermodel Maxine Martinez is ditching the modeling business? After a 2 month hiatus from this hot teenager, her manager, Anne Walker, has finally decided that she is no longer on the modeling business! What happened in this 2 month hiatus to conclude with this shocking news? No one knows the exact reason why but there have been several rumors that she stopped because she couldn't take the pressure anymore. Other rumors suggest that she's been incognito in a school as a normal school girl and when she was finally discovered, she was raped severely. Is this rumor true? Is this the reincarnation of the 'Maia Fannings case' or just a coincidence? Is this a new curse on supermodels?
"In other gossip, new guitar sensation has popped up out of nowhere! Isabella Masters, a 17 year old teen has sky-rocketed to first with her new single, I'm a cage-locked bird. Ella, as she likes to be called, has always been a fanatic when it came to playing an instrument, especially the guitar. Finally, when her parents realized that she was natural, they trained her and now, as one of the youngest to perform in Hollywood, she has officially passed Avril Lavigne as the youngest performer in the history of stars."
"Do you think it's Max?" Ella whispered to Nudge at lunch time. They both saw Gossip News on Youtube and immediately agreed that Isabella Masters was definitely Maximum Ride.
"She said that Isabella's nickname was Ella. It's definitely got to do with you. And Masters…" Nudge said and they both looked at Fang stabbing his chicken.
"Oh Max…" Ella sighed as they both heard her new single. Soon after the finished, they were both shocked.
"Oh my god." Ella said at the same time Nudge muttered, "Wow."
"Is this how Max is feeling right now?" Ella asked but Nudge did nothing. She was too shocked.
"I never knew how hard it must have been for her to keep such a secret from everyone." Nudge sighed.
"But I feel like we're missing something from this, you know?" Ella said and Nudge nodded vigorously.
"'I'm trapped inside and out / Someone help me now / I'm a cage-locked bird / Can't even go home / And now I only bow.' I wonder what she meant by that." Nudge pondered but they both decided on one thing. They had to mend both Fang's and Max's heart.
"Fang, can we talk?" Ella cornered him after school ended.
"I have nothing to talk about. Leave me alone." He said harshly but it didn't faze her.
"Just listen to me, then. You don't have to talk." It was clear to Fang that she wasn't budging so he reluctantly crossed his arms and motioned her to continue.
"You do realize that this new pop sensation, Isabella Masters, is really Max, right?"
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"Fang, you and I both know it's her. She's using my first name and your last name and she's using them because she misses everyone."
"If she did, she would have contacted us." He pointed out and Ella gave him an annoyed sigh.
"She's not because she obviously thinks all of us hate her right now."
"She… Can't really think that, can she?" He hesitantly said.
"Well, you did break up with her harshly."
"I did what I had to do."
"You did but did you ever realize why she only 3, count them 3, boyfriends before you came along?" He shook his head.
"When she was young, they only like her because of her money and her looks. Never for her personality. Never for who she was. She never let anyone else in. She was too afraid that if people found out that she was a supermodel, they would only like for looks and money, just like in the past. She tried to tell you guys. She did. Though you couldn't see it, I did. She was struggling every day to try to find a way to tell you guys but it was too late. You have a right to be angry at her, but there's also a time when it's time to let go." She finished and he stared at her. Ella was right. Maybe it was time to let go.
"Listen to her single, Fang. Listen to I'm a cage-locked bird. Please." And left.
The chorus ended as did the song. Fang took off his earphones and lied down on his bed. Max's voice was so beautiful. He remembered when she had first come to his house and started playing the guitar.
She told him that she wasn't much of a singer. 'But you are.' He thought bitterly.
Was she trying to say something in that part of the chorus? What did she mean by the only bowed now part? Did something happen to her?
No. He wasn't going to give in to that. She hurt him. She hurt of them. She lied to him. And he could never forgive her for that.
But was something going on in her personal life? Why would she suddenly change her whole appearance? It wasn't because of them, was it? No. That was not the Maximum Ride he knew. Or at least, he thought he knew.
Should he call her? No. He already broke everything off with her. Calling her would just make him suffer even more.
No. He would wait. He would think this through. And then he would act.
I will not crack
I will not bow
You can't tell me what to do
Yet here I am
What do I do?
~.~
"You are not making me go through with this. I will never do this. I am done. I am done with all of this. You can find money on your own. I am not some ignorant pawn!" I say to Anne but she smiles.
"Are you sure about that?" And calls over the one person I least expected to see.
"Wh-what are you doing with that witch?" I stutter and Anne kisses him hard.
"Maximum, do this for me? I always loved when you played and singed to me. How about it?"
~.~
My sins are as bigger than ever
My wings are tight shut
My arms are bound tighter than ever
My voice has been cut off
~.~
"Isabella, straighten that back!" I straighten my back.
"Isabella, sing louder!" I sing louder.
"Isabella, no more resting. Get working on the new song." I work on my new song.
"Isabella, stop slacking off and strum the right chord!" I strum the right chord.
"Isabella, put on a happy smile!" I put on a pained one instead.
~.~
I'm trapped inside and out
Someone help me now
I'm a cage-locked bird
Can't even go home
And now I only bow
~.~
I'm so tired. When was the last time I slept? I feel my bones ache and my eyes screaming at me to go to sleep. But I can't. I have to finish.
"Are you done yet?" A voice calls out.
"Almost."
"Good job, Isabella. Good job." I thought… My name was… Maximum…
~.~
Find me and help me out
I'll scream and I will shout
I'm lost in eternal hell
With my feathers plucked again and again
~.~
Fang, Ella, Nudge, Gazzy, Iggy, Angel… When are you guys going to realize that I am suffering just the same?
"Please. No more. I can't take no more! Get away from me!" I scream as arms try to grab me to the recording studio.
"I need to… talk to… them. I need to go to school! I need to apologize again! Let me go! Please!" I beg but they don't hear me.
"But Isabella, you didn't go to a school." I didn't… go to school?
~.~
They cut my freedom away
They put me in a cage
They push me every day
I can't take it no more
~.~
"Isabella, stop mumbling and sing clearly to the mic!" The door is locked.
"Isabella, don't get so distracted and sing!" There are bodyguards guarding everywhere.
"Isabella, change this part of the chorus! It's too graphic!" But that's the best part.
"Isabella, get rid of that phone or so help me, I will break it myself!" A part of me snaps.
~.~
I'm trapped inside and out
Someone help me now
I'm a cage-locked bird
Can't even go home
And now I only bow
~.~
"Isabella, you were homeschooled, remember? We taught you. We're a happy family."
We are… A happy family.
"We always took care of you."
"Always… Took care of me…
"You never had a boyfriend named Fang, you know?"
But… I thought… I did…
I… Loved him… Right?
~.~
Scream and shout
Give my freedom back
They don't hear me out
I'm a cage-locked bird
Can't even go home
And now I only bow
~.~
"I did have a boyfriend! His name is Fang! I love him! You can't do this to me! What happened to you? What did that witch do to you? Let me go! I did all of your filthy work. I just need to see Fang. Give me back my freedom!"
"But Isabella, you didn't have a boyfriend. Look at me, Ella. You never had a boyfriend named Fang. You were homeschooled. You never when to high school because you were raided and almost raped. The only people you can trust are me and your mom. Do you understand, Isabella?"
~.~
I bow
.~
"What is your name?"
"My name is… Isabella."
"Where did you go to school?"
"I was… homeschooled."
"Who can you trust?"
"I can trust… you and my mother…"
"Who is Fang?"
"Who is Fang?"
"Perfect, Isabella. Just perfect." Dad says as he walks away.
"You are amazing, you know that?" Anne compliments him as they kiss.
"That's what you get for being an amazing hypnotist." He smirks as they walk into their room.
So a bit more drama comes in now
BTW, I made that song up so I hope you guys like that too
I don't know when I'm going to upload again but since vacation started, I've started focusing more on writing now so I might be able to upload another chapter (it might be this or Disappointment)
On other news, I saw TFIOS
I think I bawled the moment the movie started
Oh god, it was so sad but when you realize that Hazel was wearing Agustus's shirt (the bulldog one he wore when they first met and told her she was beautiful) when he died, I lost it completely
No more sad stories, please :(
