Max listened to other give their reasons for wanting to join and even thought he didn't like it he would prefer that JC stayed and didn't put himself in mortal danger by joining them on their quest to the underworld. At first he agreed with him on wanting Sentinel to come since he was Kyrptonian and had the muscle to help fight off any monsters that the dark domain might throw at them, but Pistolera did have a point that being a mystic realm could have lots of magic which could be deadly for the hero. JC also gave a good defense for his plan, Sentinel had a bad habit of bringing too much attention to himself and with things as bad as this, that was the last thing that they needed. Of course Evan had to start an argument with JC even when things were already really bad and they were probably the most wanted fugitives in the country right now. Max angrily walked up Evan and glared at the demigod.

"Now listen here Pretty Boy, JC has done the best that he could with you Super-Jerks screwing up left and right! You, Sentinel and Accelerate are all power with no fucking brains when it comes to being a team. You may be the son of Aphrodite, but you definitely ain't the son of Athena so don't you dare speak for the entire team like a wise ass! I have a normal family and unlike you this whole mess has completely turned my life upside down. So right now I'm sick of you or anyone else wanting to let their bitch ass attitude fuck up the team more! So put an end to this bitching until this shit is resolved" he said in an infuriated voice. Max didn't care how angry he made the demigod, he was too mad to think his words through and just wanted to vent. He then breathed in and out heavily to calm down a bit before casting his vote.

"I am grateful for Pistolera putting an end to the carnage and giving us a place to escape to in this whole horrid business, but I am voting for JC as leader, he was able to keep focused in a horrible crisis and kept my spirit up in the face of death. That's leadership qualities to me because there's more to being a leader than just thinking about the plan, there's also guiding and caring for the team like family. JC has proved this in my opinion" Max said giving JC a nod. In truth he thought this whole leadership squabble was wasting time, but if they were going to vote then he would vote for who he thought was best to lead the way in this terrible crisis.

He was a little bit surprised that Rhea had voted for Pistolera over JC, but it was her decision and he respected that. Now all that was left was for the others to cast their votes and see who would be sitting in the rough leadership chair. The thought of him being leader had crossed his mind, but right now he couldn't see himself putting up with extra drama at a time like this.
