This is my first Maximum Ride fanfic so please tell me what you think. I will update as soon as I can (Lizzy stole chapter 1-4. Thanks Lizzy). Also please read my other fanfic if you like Twilight. It's about what would have happened if Edward had never some back in New Moon. Yup. I'm going to shut up now.

THIS STORY SKIPS FROM THIS CHAPTER TO 20 YEARS LATER AND IT IS MAINLY TOLD FROM MAX'S DAUGHTER'S POINT OF VIEW!

MAX POV

Tears roll down my cheeks, while my eyes stay fixed on a cave, just as they have been for hours, as I sit unmoving. The tree is hard and cold against my back. I let out a huff.

Why? I think, Why? Was I not enough, was I wrong? Did he ever truly love me? Or was I just an idiot to think so? I sigh in displeasure. No matter how much I blame myself or I blame him, he isn't coming back. He's gone and always will be.

My stomach growls loudly.

Ignore it I think.

I know I can't ignore what my body tells me any longer. I must eat. Because I know that with each passing day the life that grows inside me slowly dies, while it screams out for me to save it. Eating is my only hope for survival, my baby's only chance for survival. Any longer and we'll org be dead. Once more my stomach growls loudly.

I struggle to stand up, even with the help of the tree's branches. I stand up much too quickly for me to get balanced, and my head spins, making me feel as if I might throw up. Much to my distaste I start falling out of the tree.

My wings quickly snap out and I catch myself. I float to the edge of the lake to clean my self up before I leave. My reflection startles me.

I see a girl with brown hair with blonde and red streaks, which is tangled. She is wearing an oversized purple sweatshirt and faded blue jeans.

I pull up the sweatshirt to my ribs. Sadly it shows nothing but the truth. How long has it been? Four months? Five months?

My fingers trace along my swollen stomach, which is firm. I rest my hand at the top, where it begins to protrude. The baby gives me a slight kick, making my heart jump. I can't deny the love I feel for the child, even if it is a constant reminder that I'm all alone in the world.

No matter how long I stare at the serene waters of Lake Mead, I know that I must leave this place.

I quickly pull down my shirt and launch myself into the air.

I look to the future, praying that it will be everything that he promised. A future where we are together as a family. Me, him and our baby, our small, precious unborn baby. But the future is unpredictable and unreliable. No matter how much we plan it, life has its own map.

In twenty years I know I may return and I may not. What the future holds only time can tell. But if I do return I will not return alone but with a child; Fang's child.

soo… did ya tbink ? Please tell me cause I will never know if you don't review! Love ya'll. I accept name ideas for character names. I might even do some contests for you. Also if you are one of the first ten reviewers I will let you name a character (I promise it will be in the story).
