Chapter 28
Fang started getting worried when Max didn't come out. The whole plan was for her to shut down the main generator and get out before the small explosion they set up in the room next door exploded. It went off; but she wasn't there yet. She should have been about five minutes ago. Something's wrong. Fang looked over to Flock's worried faces. He didn't even need to ask them.
They searched and searched. No sign of Max. They can't believe after all this, they lost her. They were so close; it seemed so simple. Yet the unbeatable Maximum Ride finally went down. They went home; all hope lost.
Fang was the most upset. He loves her. Even though she's dead, he still does.
Why did I ever leave her, he thought, even for a second? He thought by him leaving, everything would be better. It wasn't true. It just left the one he loved heartbroken. And when he finally seems to have her back; she dies. Ironic.
He flew inside the house with the rest of the Flock. Suddenly they heard a big crash coming from the upstairs bathroom. They ran up there immediately. What they saw up there shocked them all.
Max, who was trying to pour hydrogen peroxide into her scraped elbow. She looked up at them and smiled, like there was nothing wrong.
Nudge exploded with questions.
"What happened to you? We thought you were dead! Why did you leave us? Are you ok? Is-" Fang clamped his hand over her mouth. He looked at Max and she got the message.
"Sorry, guys. I was still inside when the bomb went off, but I used my super speed flying abilities to get out of there. I was close to the door. I skinned my elbow and I got a few bruises since it was such a tight space. I saw you guys out there, I would have come for you but I noticed that I was being followed by a couple of idiot whitecoats who spotted me escaping. I decided to have some fun with them and had them follow me until I finally attacked them. I would've come back, but my wings were so sore that I just had to get home. I couldn't stand the thought of any more flying." Max did looked apologetic, for once. They mumbled "ok" or "whatever" and some of them even said "don't do it again". One by one, they all left, too tired to put up a real fight. The only one who still stayed was Fang, who looked to be pretty mad at Max.
"You scared me." He said, trying to keep the anger out of his voice. Max suddenly went on the defensive side.
"Really? Considering that you left me. I thought you didn't care." Max snapped. Fang was hurt, but he was too mad to show it.
"Fine I'm sorry, ok? I thought it was for the better."
"It obviously wasn't." Max went back to treating her wounds. Fang just sighed loudly and ran as hand through his hair. He really didn't want to fight with Max right now. He took a step towards her.
"I didn't think it would cause such a problem, but as soon as I left, I regretted it. I couldn't stop thinking about you. I'm sorry." Fang said. Max didn't say anything. "I love you." He finally admitted. Max smiled slightly.
"I love you too," She said, but she whirled around and punched him in the arm, "but you're still an idiot." Fang grinned and punched her back, hard. He ran and jumped out the window before she could get him back.
That's my guy, she thought, rolling her eyes.
The end! Sorry for the super cheesy ending to this story. I just had no idea how to finish this. I must say, I had a bit of fun writing this. It didn't come out the exact way I expected it too (I don't mean that as a bad thing), but it still counts as a story. Not too bad for my first fanfiction. Thanks to all of you guys who read this! It means a lot! I'm currently working on a Percy Jackson fanfiction called Life as a Singer. So, check that out if you want too. Thanks! Have an awesome summer! :D
