Max Ride: Part 1

Here it is, part one of my fanfic. Here goes nothing!

Maximum Ride
Part 1
            I wheeled around, my wings barely moving. With the smallest twitch I changed directions and landed in front of Max and the Flock. I bowed as they clapped. At least, everyone but Max. She looked sullen. I walked over to my twin and sat down next to her.
            “What’s up, Max?” I asked. She glared at me then continued staring at her feet. I looked over at Dylan, the newest member of the Flock. I was about to say something when she interrupted me.
            “It’s Fang,” she muttered, clenching her teeth. “He left us, and only gave us a note to explain why.” She stood up suddenly and walked into our house that my friend, Marcus, and I had built. We put an entire house into two large Ponderosa Pines. And we really maximized space. We had 13 bedrooms, some of which for Fang and his Flock, if they ever needed a house. We also had multiple kitchens, somehow, and three or four laboratories. I had a library and a room in an alternate dimension, which could lead to any other room in the house. And each room had the first letter of our name on the door. Mine had a big “T” for Tyler, and I painted it green. No one mixed up my room with theirs.
            “Max, why are you so bent out of shape because of Fang? Dylan isn’t a bad guy.” I put my hand on her shoulder.
            “Tyler, you wouldn’t understand. I loved him. I saw a big future. We were in Las Vegas together, and we had a date. We were deep in love, but he left us. He left us and broke my heart.” And suddenly, my twin sister was on my shoulder crying her heart out. I saw Angel walk in and I shooed her away. This was between me and Max.
            I squared Max’s shoulders. “Calm down, Sis. Let go of Fang. Focus on your Flock. Fang isn’t worth it. Not right now.” Max looked me deep in the eye. And then she turned around and ran outside, spread her wings, and flew off. I walked after her. When the Flock tried to go after her, I stopped them.
            “This is Max’s problem,” I sighed. “Let her deal with it.”
^8^
Max walked around the forest clearing, trying to take Tyler’s advice and forget Fang. But she couldn't. She sat down on a rock, sighing. And she didn’t even hear the footsteps nearby. She only turned around when a whitecoat jumped out of the bushes and stabbed something in her arm. Max felt faint, and the last thing she remembered was being carried away by one of the demons who worked for the School.
^8^
I flew over the forest, the Flock behind me, the day after Max had flown off. We looked down, searching for a sign of our thick-headed leader. When we finally gave up, I waved to the rest of the Flock, motioning for them to land in a copse of trees near a town. When we did, I talked to them.
“You guys, this is probably the only other place Max would be. If you see her, find a nearby phone and call me. Spread out.” I shoved a jacket over my wings and walked out towards the city, searching for my twin.
