I know it's pretty OOC, but I promise Max will be BA sometime in the near or distant future. :)

She's a saint

She's salt of the earth

And she's dangerous ~"She's a Rebel" by Green Day

I leisurely walk into the girls bathroom.

All the gossip stops and the girls stare at me. I look down and keep walking. I look into each of their minds.

OMGosh! Isn't that Iggy's girlfriend?!

Holy crap. I'm so jelly of her! She's, like, going out with, like the hottest guy in school!

MAX! MAX! MAX! MAX! MAX! ELLS HERE.

I don't even look up.

Hi Ella, I say in my mind to her.

You're dating Iggy?

No. Why does everyone think that?

No sure, meet me outside in exactly 1 minute!

M'kay.

~!~

He walks through the school, trying to find his brother.

"Fang!"

"Yo," Fang replies, smoothly turning around.

"I need your help."

"Why?"

"Because this girl won't talk to me." Fang raises an eyebrow. "Not that I like her or anything. I just wanna be her friend and she just won't talk to me!"

Fang looks off into space for a minute, then smirks. "You sound like Nudge."

"This is for real Fang!"

"Ok. Maximum Ride right? The whole school is gossiping about you guys," Fang says.

"Ooh thats it! Thanks!" Iggy says grinning, then walks off. Fang stares at him for a moment before returning to finishing his homework for his next class.

~!~

I wait outside for Ella.

I pace back and forth, waiting. Someone roughly grabs my wrist. I panic and shove them away with my mind. I hear them fall to the ground. I pant a little bit. I hate it when people surprise me like that.

"Whoa, what happened to my brain?" A familiar voice asks from below. Iggy is sitting on the ground, rubbing his head. I gasp and stand there, frozen, wishing I had Ella's powers right then.

I feel Ella from right next to me, completely invisible. She grabs my wrist, turning me invisible too.

I see Iggy get back up and look around. I look into his mind.

What was that?

That was some headache.

Where'd Max go?

God, I really want some pudding.

He stalks off back into the school.

"C'mon Max, lets go have fun!" Ella whispers.

~!~

This isn't fun-this is torture.

Ella laughs as she drags me around. "Hurry up Max!"

"Ella, why can't we just go home? Or go eat? Or go to a quiet place?" I ask quietly. She looks at me sideways.

"Where do you want to eat then?" She asks. I shrug. She smiles at me and rolls her eyes. "C'mon."

She grabs my wrist and tugs me over to a quiet little restaurant. A ghost of a smile graces my lips.

~!~

I walk to my locker, my eyes studying my feet.

Fang is leaning against it, Iggy talking to him animatedly. I lightly tap Fang on the back.

"Can you move?" I ask. He looks down at me, his black eyes searching mine for something. He smirks and brushes his black hair out of his eyes before moving.

"Hey Max!" Iggy calls. I choose to ignore him. I quickly get my books and briskly walk away, weaving my way through the crowd to make sure Iggy wouldn't catch up with me.

I could feel him eyeing me warily as I scuttle away.

Why does she always run?

~!~

I look around the table at my fellow loners.

Ella had bugged me about not getting thrown into any lockers.

She waves at me from across the cafeteria. I give a small wave back. Her groups of friends are chatting happily. I look around at my table once more before slowly eating.

I hear someone plop down across from me. I look up to see Fang smirking at me. I sigh. Why won't these guys leave me alone?

I look down at my lap. I invade his mind, poking around a bit too harshly.

Gosh Max is so-

Dang it. Headache.

I slip out of his mind quickly. "You should go to the nurse for that," I whisper.

"For what?" He asks, leaning on his elbows.

What the heck? Can she read my mind or something?

"Nevermind," I say. He quirks an eyebrow. "Leave me alone Fang."

"Why should I?" He challenges, narrowing his eyes.

"I am not a force to be messed with," I growl. I use my mental powers to invade his mind strongly. He yelps loudly and falls out of his chair. Everyone stares at Fang and I, including Ella. I quickly rush out of the cafeteria.

Oh no, what did I do?

There you go. I would've posted it sooner but sometimes its really hard to find music quotes.
