Maximum Ride

Prologue

You Don't Know CHU Your Messing With.

CHU Industries, Central China"Has the flock been located?" "I'm tired of your incompetence Number 3." This comment, was made by a short Asian man in a blue business suit. This particular man was, at the moment staring out of his plush office skylight city view. The nameplate on his desk read "Mr. Chu, CEO"

"Yes sir, they've been located flying over the Yucatan, on their way to South America."

Mr. Chu turned around to look at Number 3. "Are you sure it's them, I wouldn't want another incident like Number 4's to befall you, Number 3"

Number 3 gulped " Yes Sir, it's defiantly them, we've had 3 different sources identify them." Number 3 watched Mr. Chu turn back around in his chair, as if disinterested. Number 3 was extremely relieved by this news, along with Mr. Chu's reaction. For this meant that he wouldn't be in Mr. Chu's bad books for much longer. After CSM had found out about the illegal dump of toxic waste of the coast of Hawaii, Mr. Chu hadn't exactly been in the best of moods.

"Good, I want those abominations gone, and there will be no more mistakes, right Number 3?"

Number 3 knew this wasn't a question, it was a command. A command, that if not followed would result in his death.

"Do you understand Number 3?" "I want Maximum Ride terminated, and without her, the precious flock will be reduced to nothing."

"Affirmative sir, decimate Maximum Ride, and her flock will follow." With that last comment Number 3 backed slowly out the door.

Mr. Chu continued to stare down at the city, his city, if you will. He did own half of it anyway. Even though Mr. Chu's calm and placid matter had fooled Number 3, he felt like inside he was going to explode. After CSM industries had discovered and told the world about his company's recent dump of toxic waste, CHU Industries had suffered major hits all over the world. All because of Maximum Ride and her precious flock. He had given her the chance, the chance to join him, to help rule the world. Well, that choice had come and past, and Maximum had chosen wrong. Well, Mr. Chu still knew that he had a few aces up his sleeve, including, Black Venom. He chuckled to himself, "Enjoy your flight Maximum, it's bound to be your last.
