First things first: This is a sequel. Please, please, please go read Incredible first, otherwise you will be so morbidly confused that it won't even be funny. (Not that regular confusion is funny, but still.)

Blanket Disclaimer: I'm not James Patterson. You know this, I know this. I'll never BE him (considering I'm a girl, for one). Thus, I'll never own the Maximum Ride series (much to my dismay). All of the wonderful canon characters that you see do not belong to me. HOWEVER, I do own the plot and every of the OC's, save the few that were given to me by readers. (I'll point those out when they come into play, though.)

Hey there everyone! It's been too long. This won't ever happen again, I swear. I never meant for the re-vamp of Incredible to take as long as it did.

But enough about that, let me give you a VERY quick run-down of how everything is going to work for this story:

As you know, I started up a Cookie Contest ™ for Incredible. Guess what? I'm doing one for this story, too! Only, instead of cookies, I'll be baking mounds of… *drum roll* muffins! *pulls out example tray* The rules are the same as they were for the cookie contest, which are as follows:

1: You earn one muffin for every review, author/story alert, and author/story favorite.

2: Here's the deal. The LOWEST POSSIBLE amount of muffins you can earn per review is one. For good reviews, where you give me good feedback and tell me what you liked or what you didn't and/or make me smile in general, you will earn MORE muffins. It's that simple.

3: For every person you tell about Incredibly Indescribable that reviews and gives me your username, both of you get 5 muffins.

4: If you comply to the strange requests within my Author's Notes, you'll earn the number of muffins I assign for that particular request.

5: If you reach 100 muffins, I'll give you a sneak peek of a future chapter (because I pre-write

everything).

Now, because the random facts were so popular with Incredible, we're going to do something different for Indescribable. If you've read through Incredible (which I strongly recommend, as I've edited every chapter), you'll notice that I've added a theme song to each chapter. In conjunction with that, I will be taking any and all SONG TITLES you give me for this story. I will only accept 2 songs per review, but each one will be worth up to 5 muffins. To earn all five muffins, you must tell me the Song Title, the Artist, any Lyrics that pertain to my chapterly theme (I'll give you the type of song I'm looking for each chapter), and a good reason why it fits in with that theme. (Why you like it or what about it fits my question.)

And instead of posting the current contest participants every chapter, I'll just display the top three, and the official standings will be up on my profile.

This will be my fist and last major A/N for this entire story, I promise. They'll be nice and short for the remainder of this trilogy.


Thanks to e-bubble97 for this idea:

A summary of Incredible, for my readers who have forgotten (This is why I want you to read it first, my new readers!):

Two years ago, the flock was split up. Their memories were erased, and their wings were taken away. Now, over the week-long Thanksgiving holiday, six former bird-kids are all travelling to the same place: Dallas, Texas. Over the course of the next six days, the flock has to overcome obstacle after obstacle as they try to reunite and regain their memories.

The first to be reunited are Angel, Gazzy, and Iggy, but they don't seem to remember each other. Max and Fang catch each other by an accidental phone call, but the call is dropped due to an oncoming storm. Nudge and Max are the next to meet when they both arrive in Dallas. Nudge has found a mysterious photograph that features all six of the flock—and do they really all have wings? Max then finds Angel, Gazzy, and Iggy, and they all head back to Iggy's 'home' while Nudge and Fang cross paths. Fang, eager to re-connect with Max, calls her up using Nudge's phone, but the conversation they have isn't a very pleasant one.

It isn't until that Thursday, at the Cowboys-Bears football game, that everything really takes off. Nudge bumps into Iggy at the game, and later Iggy collides with Fang—with a rather violent outcome. It isn't until after the game starts that Max sees Fang on the television and rushes over to Angel and Gazzy's 'house' to pick them up and rush them to the game.

Once at the stadium, Max splits off from the brother and sister and runs into none other than Fang. The two get into a fight that ends in them kissing—and finally regaining their memories. Max and Fang's kiss breaks through the barriers that were holding the rest of the flock's memories back, and Max's new flock of four rush to embrace their leader. Max realizes that Itex was the blame for all their problems, not Fang.

Just as everything seems wonderful and peachy, the bird-kids are interrupted by a surprise Eraser attack.

Hopefully that helps a bit, even if the writing is rather, well, half-assed.


The theme song for this chapter is "Take Me" by Papa Roach.

Rated T for language and violence.

They were together, again, and they didn't have any plans to be separated any time soon. She was back to hearing voices. He started to mimic once again. She found her voice, and she wasn't afraid to use it. In remembering how to see, he gained a voice of his own. She got her Voice back, and wasn't afraid to take charge. His voice kept her steady, and he reminded her to listen to those she looked after.

Those who had torn them apart—the ones who'd scorned them—are in for a brutal surprise. Their experiments are back, and ready to reclaim what is rightfully theirs. But, in the test of faith and endurance, can the rebels weather the storm?

"Max!"

Angel's horrified shriek had me spinning from their arms, crouching into a fighting stance. I didn't know what was coming, but I definitely heard it when a roar split through the audience that had gathered around us. Though what I saw shove forward didn't click.

What?

They were supposed to be gone. We'd seen them get retired. Hell, I'd held my own brother as he died! Don't you even get me started on those two generations of awful replacements!

But all those improbabilities didn't stop those four Erasers from lunging forward, fully-morphed, with claws aimed straight for my throat.

Not a whole lot to say after this, basically because it's the next chapter you all want to bad. :)
