Maximum Ride fan-fic, Chapter 1:
Max and Fang raced through the forest, running from Erasers. Iggy, Gazzy, Nudge, and Angel were all ahead of them. Max hoped they were safe. Suddenly Fang stopped, and turned his head, holding up one hand. Max immediately stopped with him.
"They're gone. They left something, or someone behind. Listen." He said. Max strained to listen, and heard something. It was like whimpering, not exactly crying. It sounded like a young girl not far from them.
"Maybe it's a trick." Max said, looking to Fang for support. Fang nodded solemnly.
"Even if it is, neither of us would be able to sleep at night if we don't at least check it out."
Max nodded, knowing he was right. She hated it when he was right, and it happened too often.
She and Fang slowly made their way through the blowing trees, on guard the whole time. The small whimpers grew louder as they edged closer. Just by the sounds Max couldn't help feeling sorry for whoever was making that noise. She and her "flock"( as they were called) had all been through a lot; experimentation, isolation, mutations, battle wounds, and more. Scientists called the White Coats had experimented on them and implanted wings into their backs.
Fang held out his slender arm to stop Max. She saw her too. A young girl, about their age with dark hair. She had dark wings also that were stretched out behind her. She held her leg, apparently attempting to stop the bleeding. It looked like something with sharp claws had slashed her leg open. An Eraser most likely, who were wolf experiments. Humans who had wolf DNA and could morph in and out of each state.
She straightened, sensing their approach. Max stepped forward and ripped some cloth off the girls shirt, wrapping her leg. The teen age girl looked at her with round eyes, terrified. Fang stepped up and started helping Max.
"Who are you?" She asked.
