THIS IS THE LAST CHAPTER. I'm so sad…I liked to write for this story. I'm thinking of making a sequel…a semi nice sequel…without that many people getting hurt of dieing! Sound good? No? Yes?

P.S. I think it's HILARIOUS that you guys think I'll kill off Gazzy. I'm not THAT mean! haha!

P.P.S Nope, don't own Maximum Ride


I Would Walk Through Flames

Flowers For the Dead

Gazzy POV, 5 years later

People tell you that crying is the best thing for you to do when your sad and…. their right. I looked sadly at the roses in my hands and put them on Fang's grave, Max did the same. I bent down and looked at Fang's grave, tears silently falling. On his grave it said "He walked through flames for the ones he loved.". Max was fingering the lettering of Fang's name. I heard her sigh softly.

"I never realized how different life is without him." Max said softly.

"I miss him too." Max put a picture of her, Fang, me, and Angel on his grave and stood up.

"Why do people have to die?" Max asked.

"So that more people can come in?" I guess. "I don't know…" I added.

I fingered the pink roses in my hand and looked over at the grave beside Fang's. Angel's grave. She had lived longer than any of her doctors thought. I'm happy that she didn't die in a hospital bed, she died peacefully at home in her own room. But I still wasn't glad she died. Actually that was the hardest day of my life.

I looked down at my wrists, which were covered in scars. Angel's death sent me overboard. I was a cutter, I attempted suicide multiple times. Of course Max wasn't to thrilled when she found blood covering my room. Well actually she freaked out and almost killed me with my own knife. Because of this Max made me, and herself, go to therapy.

I felt someone rub my back. I looked over my shoulder and saw Max crying. I grimaced and put the pink roses on Angel's grave. Angel's grave said "She won the greatest battle anyone could ever fight". She won? She died so how could she win?

"She didn't win…" I said softly. I felt Max kneel down next to me.

"She did win Gazzy." Max said, her voice rough. "Not many people can fight death. But Angel won multiple times. She fought death and won. I bet you she's watching us right now." She said.

I looked up at the sky, waiting for some sign that Angel was watching us. And guess what, you know those sappy movies where it always starts to rain at a sad moment, well it started raining.

"Look's like Angel's crying…" Max said sadly.

"And Fang." I added.

"Yes, and Fang." Max said.

I sat down and leaned my head against Angel's gravestone. Wishing, for once, that people could come to life and come out of their grave. I started to sob, luckily the rain covered my tears.

"Gazzy, I know your crying." Max said softly.

"So are you…" I said, my voice catching in my throat.

"Yea, I am. And I'm not ashamed to say it." Max said, whipping her tears. I stared at Fang's grave, then Angel's.

"You know if Fang didn't die than Angel would still be alive." I said.

"What do you mean?" Max asked, sitting next to me.

"Angel told me that when she was driving she started crying over Fang's death, which made her crash."

Maxes eyes widened with surprise. Apparently Angel didn't tell Max this information.

"She didn't tell me that." Max said, putting her head in her hands.

"I shouldn't have told you. I guess Angel didn't tell you for a reason…" I said, regretting telling her this information.

"No, no I'm glad you told me." Max said, looking up. "I wonder what life would be like if Fang didn't die."

"Life would be a lot better than this." I said, standing up. "Can we go? This place is depressing." I asked.

Max stood up and grabbed my hand. We started to walk up the trail and to the car. Max jumped in the car but I stood outside for another moment, looking at the graves.

"See you soon Angel." I said sadly. "You too Fang."

I climbed into the car. Of course life will never be the same, or good. But I had to hope for the better. Max started the car. We were now driving to a new life.


Awww. Angel's dead…and it's the last chapter…I'm thinking of making a sequel…but I don't know. Maybe, maybe not. I know I could make a sequel. Or, I could make a story similar to this…but obviously different. Review Please!
