They Make Us Look Normal

A/N: Okay, so I've kinda wanted to do a HP/MaxRide crossover for awhile now… Anyways, this is set during Lilly and James's 5th year, and right after Saving The World and Other Extreme Sports. (I honestly don't care about the time difference. Lets just pretend they're both modern day, kay? We're all writers here. We're used to making stuff up.) It's been a few months since I've read either of the books, so if I mess up a few details don't get all "you aren't a real fan!" on me. At least I'm writing! Although, I'm not sure if I'm going to continue this right away, I'm just trying it out. (just one more reason for you to review! lemme know what you think!) Anyways, I'm just gonna start now. No one reads these authors notes, right?

Disclaimer: I do not own Maximum Ride, or Harry Potter.

Max's POV:

"Fang. Shut up. Now." I growled through gritted teeth. Sure, those words don't come out of my mouth that often. Fang's about as silent as they get, but I haven't been this angry since… well… since before we took down Itex. "Max," Fang said, with an urgency in his voice that was starting to drive me a little bit crazy. "Look Fang." I replied, totally cutting him off from anything he was about to say. What was I suppose to do? I'm supposed to be the leader. He's supposed to be my right wing man. "I get that you want to settle down, and find a house somewhere, and sip a smoothie. We can do that later, but for right now I just want to figure out all of this weird stuff that's been going on so that I can fix it."

"You don't have to fix everything you know."

I shrieked in frustration. The worst part of it? I kind of felt like he was right. But no, I needed to figure this thing out. In order to do that though, I had to get back to Europe. I swooped down, and flew ahead. I needed to clear my thoughts. I flew lower, and lower, until my wings were just barely starting to graze the top of the water. Then, I shot back up again towards the sun, the sky, and freedom. Last year, I never would have had these problems with Fang, but lately. Well, I don't actually know what happened. I guess the situation has been sort of tense sense the break up and make up just a few short weeks ago.

Maybe I should explain myself a little bit. I haven't exactly given you very much background on how we're able to fly, and other pretty important stuff like that. I'm Max. Mutant freak extraordinaire. Fang is my best friend. Us, plus the rest of our flock, Iggy, Angel, Gazzy, and Nudge, were all part of genetic experiments gone very, very wrong. Or right. We're never too sure on that one. Things can get very bad for us, very quickly. There was a battle a few weeks back, good vs. evil, scientists and the like. You don't really want to hear about that, do you? The important stuff is the stuff that happened afterwards. Strange, impossible things. (Because flying is so totally possible.) We've always been strange. Angel can read minds, breathe under water, mind control. Gazzy has a crazy digestive system, although you can hardly call that a gift. He does have an uncanny ability to mimic voices though. "He does have an uncanny ability to mimic voices though." Gazzy! Shut up. Now. I'm breaking the forth wall, and you're making me lose focus.

Where was I? Oh. Yeah. Iggy's blind, Fang's invisible… sometimes… Oh, and I have a voice in my head that tells me what to do. Do I sound crazy yet? Just wait. Lately, things have been getting much, much weirder. I'm sure there is some way in the weird, weird world to explain why Fang is suddenly talking to snakes, or why weird things keep happening around us. The other day, we saw some odd dude in a dress winking at us. That brings you up to date I think. That's where my voice comes in again. It told me to go back to Europe, and to some place called King's Cross Station. So, that's exactly where I'm taking the rest of the Flock. Fang thought it was a seriously bad idea. I guess we all thought that once we defeated Itex, the voice would go away. It didn't. We still don't know what that means for us.

I flew back over to where the rest of the flock was. Fang had joined them again, and we all flew in awkward silence for a little bit. Iggy, in true Iggy fashion, was the first one to break the silence. "One of the guys from that school we went to that one time said that every time there's an awkward silence a gay baby is born…"

And that's why I hope we never have to go to school again.

Look Max! Angel told me through her creepy mind thing. Isn't that King's Cross?

"Guys! We're here!" I shouted, before swooping down again in the middle of the station. I expected the surrounding people to at least stare. After all, the "Incredible Flying Kids!" had been on every news stand in the country. Of course, if what I suspected was true, I'm sure these people have seen weirder things.

Max. Uck. the voice again. What now? Come to give me anymore time saving advice? Cooking tips? Wild goose chases to go on? Platform 9 ¾ . Run into the wall between nine and ten. That will get you as far as you need to go for now.

Great. As if I wasn't crazy enough, now my voice was telling me to run through walls.

"Max?" Fang asked me, coming up from behind. I flipped around, and snapped "What?" He didn't even flinch. "What did it say?" He asked. I tried to play innocent, "What did what say?" He looked at me for awhile, with that just because I'm not Angel doesn't mean I don't know what you're thinking look. "The voice. Now we're gonna run through some walls. Just get the others to do what I do." And with that, I took a breath, braced myself, and ran straight into the wall. I expected some pain, not too much, but I didn't expect to feel like I'd just run through strawberry jello. I opened my eyes, and sure enough I had run through the wall. Soon, the rest of the flock followed.

"Whoaaa! That was so cool!" Gazzy yelled. "Shhhh!" I shushed, more forcefully than I should have. It's not my fault I've been a bit high strung lately. I signaled for the others to follow me, then hurried onto the big train with Hogwarts Express written on the side, and hoped that I wouldn't have to hear some funny comment from Gazzy or Iggy about riding in a train with "Hogwarts" written on the side.

"…And of course, my father is planning on taking it up with the Ministry about all of the mudbloods they let into Hogwarts. They might as well let Muggles tour the place. It's as if…" I didn't wait to hear anymore. I didn't exactly enjoy the tone the snotty sounding boy was using, so I motioned the others into an empty car. I didn't know what my voice was trying to do, but if it explained why Iggy broke the glass on a store front window by thinking too hard, or why Nudge has suddenly stopped talking, then I am all for it.

Angel's POV:

I don't pretend to know what Max is trying to do. Sure, I can hear her thoughts, but I can't hear the voice. And, a secret between me and you? The others seem to get stronger and stronger abilities every day, but for some reason I feel mine weakening towards them. I guess I'm not as omnipotent as I pretend to be. Max says she knows what she's doing, but that's not the feeling she gives me. Oh. Did I forget to mention something else important? Well, I guess you could say I'm gaining a new ability. One that I haven't told the others about. I don't plan to. I've been getting feelings lately. It's actually not too different from anything I've had before now, but I've been able to better sense emotions. Max acts like she knows exactly what she's doing, all of the time. Truth is, she doesn't feel so confident. She feels more like she should know what she's doing, but doesn't.

Fang's been angry a lot more. Frustrated with Max occasionally, but mostly angry with himself. It's like he thinks he failed at something. He's always been silent, but I've always been able to feel and hear his thoughts. Lately they've been getting louder, and louder. He wants a voice.

I haven't even been able to get through to Nudge. Normally, I just don't enjoy listening to her thoughts. They're too disjointed and random. It sends my brain into overload. Lately however… Well, I haven't even been able to get through. It's like she's trying to block everything out.

It's pretty easy to tell that we're all falling apart. We are running out of time. See, that's the thing. I've been feeling danger lately. Not that I've been feeling dangerous, or anything else. It's like. It's like. Well. Things aren't well, and they're about to get a whole lot worse. I can just feel it.

A/N: Yay! Finished chapter one. What'd you think? I should be getting into the HP stuff next chapter. Let me know what you think, and if I should continue it or not. Your opinion matters! Thanks guyz,
