This one is the longest. The other chapters will contain multiple words, as they are much shorter (most of them).


#1- Introduction

Max POV:

I hate introductions. As in, the kind where you have to tell something about yourself. I mean, what am I supposed to say? Hi, I'm Max, a mutant bird-kid freak. Or, Guess what! I have wings and gills!

Yeah, I didn't think so. If you're wondering why I am mentally ranting about this, it's because Ella wants the flock to spend a day at her school. And actually go to class so we can learn stuff.

And everyone knows what the teacher says. Why don't you stand up and introduce yourself? Translation: Tell us your name so we can pretend to care then proceed to boring everyone to tears.

I'll probably either act like Fang and say my name and nothing else (He's going by Nick again), or say something intimidating like "My name's Max. Annoy me and I'll break your nose." Add a glare or two and even the teacher will leave you alone.

Right now, I'm glaring at my breakfast as I eat it. Luckily, Ella doesn't have a uniform, so I'm wearing ripped jeans and a t-shirt that says Paramore. It may not make the best impression, but it's comfy, and that's all I really care about.

The ride to school seemed to take no time at all, unfortunately. The secretary gave us our schedules for the day. Fang, Iggy (who was going by Jeff), and I had the same classes all day, which was lucky.

Our first class was English Literature, so I asked some random kid in the hallway for directions. We got there just in time to grab seats next to each other. Fang was giving Iggy the layout of the room when the teacher walked in.

"All right, class. We have three students who will be spending the day with us today. How about you stand up and introduce yourselves?" Was I right, or was I right? "My name is Mr. Walker," he continued.

Iggy went first. He stood up and said "Hi, my name is Jeff, I'm blind, and I love science." He sat down again. Fang stood up.

"Hey, I'm Nick, and I like sleeping in," I snorted at that, and he gave a quick grin. Sigh, it's my turn. I stood up and looked at the expectant faces around me.

"My name is Max, and I love ruining people's expectations," I said impulsively. I sat down and the stunned class (plus two snickering bird-boys) turned to face Mr. Walker.

The teacher blinked, then turned around and began to write something on the board. I smiled. Maybe introductions weren't that bad.


Tell me what you think? Pretty please?
