Flashback Over

Max thought through what happened and just ignored it and crawled into bed and fell asleep. In the middle of the night, Max woke up all panting from hearing a sound that came from the living room and decided to go and check it out, so Max puts on his slippers and goes to check it out. Max enters the living room to see his gameboy on playing the theme music. Max walks up to his gameboy, picks it up and turns it off and when he looked up, he saw Felix standing infront of him. Max decided to run to his parents room, but was stopped when Felix grabbed Max by the back of his collar and threw him at the couch. Max looks at Felix in fear and confusion as he gets up and walks backwards to hit the wall and Felix is approaching Max with a steel pipe in his hands.

"How did you get in here?" Max yelled. "It doesn't matter. All that matters is that I toughen you up wimp." replied Felix. Felix gets closer to Max and then he starts to swing at Max with the pipe, but Max ducked and started to run to his parents room. As Max got close to the door, something hit him in the head and he fell to the ground holding his head. Felix walked up to Max and hit Max in the knee, which Max started to scream and hold his knee. Felix throws the pipe across the room and gets on top of Max and starts pounding him in the face. Felix stops to get up and Max starts to open his eyes and looked up at Felix and when Max manage to focus on the image, Felix lifts his foot up and drops it hard on Max's face.

When his foot landed on Max's face, Max shot up from his bed and screamed "NNNOOOO!" Max lost his breath and had a hard time regaining it and he decided looked around his room to make sure Felix wasn't around and he finds out that it was just a nightmare. When Max laid his head down on the pillow, George enters the room all concern "Max. Are you ok?" "Yeah. I just had a nightmare." replied Max. George started to get more worried because Max hasen't had a nightmare before, he had insomnia before, but never a nightmare.

George walked over to the right side of Max's bed and sat down on the bed "Are you sure your ok because you never had a nightmare before." "It's just that I went through a bad experience this morning when Winnie came over." replied Max "Well tell me what happened, so I can help you out." said George. Max told his Dad everything that happened up to this point even the fact Carmen was drinking with Tom behind his back and he showed his Dad the marks that he got from Felix. At first, George was mad about the fact that his son was beat up in his own place, but he was upset that he didn't see things like sooner because he saw that Max wasn't happy when he left the Thanksgiving dinner and Carmen was a little off from her normal self.

"Look Max things didn't go well as I thought when we came here. I think we should go back to L.A because both you and Carmen never went through something like this before. We will leave tomorrow when you wake up. So sleep as late as you want." said George. "Thanks Dad. I can't wait to get back home." replied Max.

Max was happy to hear that they are going back home and get to leave this hell of a town. Things back at home weren't good either, but it's better than what has been going here in Colorado. With that over with, George tucked Max back into bed and went back to his room and everyone went to bed and prepare to leave back to L.A. It became around 10pm when Max woke up, he got up, and walked to the living room to see that his Mom and Sister were packing up their stuff.

"Good Morning Max. Your Dad told what happened from yesterday. Are you ok?" said Angie. "I'm ok, but a bruise on my side. replied Max. "Ok. Before you we leave. You need to take a shower and when your done, your father should get back." "Ok Mom." Max did what she said and went to the bathroom to take a shower. Max finished his shower and came out wearing a Orange long sleeve shirt, Black jeans, and his white and black sneakers with white socks underneath and went to his room to pack up his stuff.

Every is pack up and Put into the car and everyone drove back to L.A and Max was really happy to be heading back home to his friends, family, and his school for once. They got to L.A the next day around dinner, but the time was worth it because they were home and the first thing Max did was run back into his house to see his Grandpa at the stove cooking dinner. "Hey. Welcome back. I prepared dinner for you guys. said Vic "Thanks Grandpa. I'm gonna drop off my stuff first." replied Max.

Max entered his room and put his bags on his bed and started putting his stuff away. 'It feels good to be back and hopefully I don't go through that again. Maybe I should keep reminding my Dad not to go around the world for jobs without checking out the people."
