Shay

The exhausted sigh of the tall young woman broke the silence of the serene home. Shay groaned as she slipped off her heels (or death traps as she called them) and hung up her coat. She pulled her hair out of the ponytail it had been in all day with relief. God, her head had been hurting. She hated pulling it up into ponytails. She looked around the house briefly for Alex. Her heart skipped a beat just thinking about him. She could feel her entire body relax and her expression lighting up. "Alex, I'm back! And I've missed you so so much!" She paused, then added, "And I'm so excited to see yoouuuu." She changed pajamas and took off her makeup.

Afterwards, she laid down on the bed with a groan. Her body ached from wearing her high heels. She was not looking forward to ever wearing them again. Shay sighed about thinking of how she would have to dress herself up again tomorrow. This damn corporation had to have a dress code, didn't it? At least they had accepted her; most of the businesses had turned her down due to her age and inexperience. She knew she wanted to become an official employee here for its' elite reputation, money and benefits. Shay combed her hair through her fingers and looked at the clock. It read 7:00. There was enough time in the evening to still see Alex and also eat. She rubbed her temples and stood up and went to the kitchen.




Savannah
District 11 - Prison Cell 0

"Ninety-two bottles of beer on the wall, ninety-two bottles of beer. Take one down, pass it around. Ninety-one bottles of beer on the wall, ninety-one bottles of beer. Take one down, pass it around, ninety bottles of beer on the wall. Eighty nine bottles..." The hushed voice barely reached anyone's ears, but for her, that was acceptable. The quieter she was, the less she was noticed. Being alone in this hellish solitude was a mere blessing. People had to come to her if they wanted to bother her, not the other way around. It was a small white room with a bed and complete with a separate bathroom. There weren't any windows and there was a small heater and air conditioner. The only sound accompanying her singing was rhythmic bouncing of a small tennis ball she was tossing against the wall. Strands of dark hair fell in her eyes which she brushed away. She was trying to do anything but go crazy from being in here, even if it meant singing juvenile songs.

She rolled her shoulders as she caught the ball and cracked her neck. Where was Shay? Was she alive, she wondered? She gripped the ball tightly then randomly thrust it at the wall in frustration. It bounced loudly against it, emitting a soft thud. It came bouncing back to her and she held it tightly. Savannah looked down at her white knuckles and clenched her teeth.You can't think that way, they want you angry....

"Id'd say if you had another power, then you could have blasted through that wall, Savannah." The hairs on the back of her neck rose and she did not turn around to face the speaker. If Satan had ever met his match, it was him. She swallowed and said nothing. Sometimes not saying anything at all was safer than speaking. Others, it was harmful. The mind games he played were hard to keep up with for her. "I'd say, too, you're afraid to speak, am I right, Ava?" she swallowed harder this time and concentrated her energy on the tennis ball. "Sometimes not speaking is rude, don't you think?"

"Sometimes," she replied weaker than she wanted to and cleared her throat to reiterate, "Sometimes."

"I'm glad you and I can agree on this." While she had been busy concentrating on her tennis ball, the familiar sound of the beeping had only reached her subconscious. Her door was only accessible through a series of codes, facial recognition, then another code. She had tried to work out the number code based on the sound but it hadn't worked. The intercom in her room wasn't something she could turn off either so anyone was able to speak to her even if she was asleep. She braced herself for her temples wanting to explode, but it didn't come. The sigh of relief could have melted chocolate; she wasn't in the mood for the horrific pain today. Savannah finally turned around to face the Devil's match. He stood there in his leather jacket and darker attire with his tawny hair unusually sleeked back. He usually left it a tousled mess, but there must have been an event today in order for him to appear this well-kept. Her mind began reeling but his voice cut her off from trying to think.

"There's been another raid, little Ava." He came over to kneel in front of her. They hadn't been eye-to-eye in months, and she hadn't remember how handsome he looked up close. His charming smile had melted hr the first time she had sen him. That had been her mistake and he knew it well. Thus, Savannah avoided his piercing icy-blue gaze. It was as if he had consumed winter in his eyes and voice. His demeanor was bathed with despair and death. It wasn't something he let people pick up on the first time they met him.

"Let's hope we find more useful people like you, yes? Maybe you could make a friend!" He grinned as he took her chin in his hand to study her fear and contempt. Savannah glared at him and stared him down despite her trembling hands and body. "I certainly hope your sister is not among them, Ava, because I'd miss you." He smiled and kissed her forehead. He laughed hysterically like a hyena as she recoiled and jerked away. He stood up then grabbed her by her hair to force her at his eye level. She gasped and inhaled as she met his piercing gaze. "Because you're my little healer, and you're not going anywhere. Your sister is as good as dead if she ever comes around." He thrust her into the wall harshly, then down and kicked her in the abdomen.

Savannah let out a cry of pain and her vision went black. She hit the floor unable to pick herself up. There was flecks of red meeting her on the floor. Her body began to regenerate the wounds and quickly heal her. She hated herself for having this power. They tortured her endlessly since she could heal. "And we can't lose you, Ava. You're ours, and you know that don't you? I marked you with that I thought." He cackled as he reminded her of the branded tattoo on her neck. Fortunately with her long hair, it was always covered, but that didn't stop him from bringing it up. She gritted her teeth, but didn't approach him or attack back. It was foolish to try; his powers were much more powerful than her. Besides, it was a suicide wish; they'd find and kill Shay if she didn't cooperate. She picked herself up and glared at him. Neil was aware of that and loved throwing it in her face. "Till next time, little Ava. I'll miss you." He left with a charming smirk as he glanced over his shoulder at her once more.

Once he was gone, Savannah pulled herself up and onto the cot nearby her. She curled up in the sheets and began to sob into her pillows.

Shay

Once the haze had passed and the pain subsided, Shay glanced around the infirmary. She heard ruckus outside but didn't bother listening to it. A sigh escaped her once she saw Aidan. He was more a parental figure to her than anyone. "Aidan," she tried to smile but the pain of moving her cheeks hurt. She grimaced and relaxed despite the relief filling her. "Jason!" She reached for both of them, "Oh, it's so good to see you."

She swallowed hard. People were going to wonder what the hell happened to her face. How would she explain to to Alex? Perhaps they could just lay around tomorrow and not have to go to class. She wanted to go but her mind was reeling and her body was shaking. The idea of going tomorrow was daunting. "Does this mean I'm excused from classes tomorrow? I mean, you know, I can go to a few of them if necessary... Like yours, Aidan." Her voice shook like rocks during an earthquake. Shay cleared it, scowling. "Sorry. Is, um, Alex around?" She vaguely remembered him leaving but didn't know where he had gone. "Is Rose okay? What happened?"

She glanced at the others and ushered them closer just in case that freak returned. She kept scanning the room but the guardians presence was calming enough. "Come sit by me, Jay," She glanced at Jason with a playful s,irk. "You know you missed me."
I am sorry to say this, but Penguin and I are going to have to withdraw. Good luck! :)
I really enjoyed the plot of Maximum Ride and the characters. I am excited for this! :)

@Penguin thanks!
Shay

Shay heard Lucy ask a question, but couldn't think of how to respond. She moaned in pain as she stumbled along. Her vision was blurry and white. She tripped a few times and scrambled back to her feet. She cursed like a sailor under her breathe in Russian. She was so furious with her night. This guy was unbelievable. The superior were alive and so was Damien Graves. How had nobody told the school yet? She shook as she ran and coughed up blood onto her bodysuit. Dammit, she had paid so much for it. She sighed.She hoped Rose was safe and the others... Ale and Emma. Her heart clenched. Was she safe? Was Emma all right?

The crunching of leaves behind them and Lucy's anxiety told her that Louis was behind them. Shay didn't look back as she suggested. Instead, Shay focused on ignoring her pain. It was hard, because every time she moved, it multiplied. She focused hard. At first, nothing happened, but after nearly exploding her head in concentration, it began to pour. "This little breeze?" She heard Damien taunting in her head. Shay focused and caused the breeze to turn and start to gust. Woodland debris began to fly around hazardously as a full fledged thunderstorm began to strike. She cause branches to fly at Louis and blindly held onto Lucy. She tried to focus and hang on, because she wanted to pass out from pain and exhaustion. She focused even more and caused lightning to start striking randomly. The clash of it began to echo and animals all around began to run and take cover.

"Little breeze, my ass, you old bastard," She whispered under her breathe and clutched Lucy tightly as her vision went black. She briefly passed out which paused the storm. She fell against Lucy and moaned. Once she she was awake, the storm quickly restarted. Shay focused harder. They had to go back. This dude needed to back off. She wasn't dealing with his bullshit anymore. Shay glanced back to wave her hand. The tree they had just passed was hit with a whirlwind of air and came crashing down onto the forest floor behind them to help block Louis. It thundered to the ground and shook the flower. Leaves and sticks came crashing down around them.

"Oh, shit!" Shay hissed and fell against Lucy dizzily. She had been hit in the head. "Help me. God, damn it, are you okay?"
totally interested of course. :)

Derek September 6th - 8:45 a.m.

As class began and a substitute teacher came in, Derek sighed in relief. He hated listening to the teachers on their first day drawling about homework. He was a star student - honor society, even, but he hated it. HE sighed as he watched the teacher introduce himself and rolled his eyes. What an arrogant bastard. The girls seemed to be swooning. God, this was annoying. He sat back and looked at Angel briefly. She looked so gorgeous and had grown up so much. The small twelve year old was so much older looking. She didn't even look their age; she looked to be in her 20's. He decided to mention it another time. Today was going to be overwhelming.

He snapped to attention when Mr.Woods called her out. He watched in shock as Angel snapped back a sarcastic retort. He blinked, taken aback. She had always been so nice and polite. He shrugged it off; people hated introducing themselves. The teacher's response to her's was equally sassy. He stared at them with confusion, glancing back and forth. Did they know one another? It certainly seemed like it. But how? He was so much older than her. Derek couldn't help but fidget uncomfortably. Was she involved in something wrong? The vibe he was getting was nothing but animosity. Her reaction was nothing but carelessness and dismay. She was so different.. He had no idea how she was anymore. OF course years had passed and people changed, but this was a complete switch of her character.

Angel introduced herself, then retraced her steps. He was thankful she had, because now people were nodding in agreement. Her sighed in relief then laughed at her next comment. He highfived her when she returned to her seat. He went to speak to her, but Mr.Woods began taking attendance. After discovering Holly's absence, it sent him into a genuine display of dismay. He frowned. Who the hell was this dude? He was so freaking weird. The comments regarding Holly's character were drowned out. He was too uncomfortable wit t he situation. Unfortunately, nobody else seemed to care. He shook his head then jumped when the fire alarm went off. He swore as he banged his knee and stood up with his classmates. MR.Woods must have been terrified of fire-alarms, because his attitude was sheer panic.

Derek stared in surprise when Angel took his hand then remembered she had been out for years. He smiled and held her hand back and squeezed it. "It's okay, I'm here." He reassured her and smiled. "I've got you, Angel."



Holly September 6th - 8:45 a.m.

Violet tried to comfort her, but it wasn't working. The fire drill outside had people staring at them as well. By now, the ambulance had been called and the police had been notified as well. She was numb as she stared down at Madison. Holly against Violet and rested her head on her shoulder as tears streamed down her face. She watched as EMT's came over and loaded Madison's body onto a stretcher. One of the cops knelt in front of her and began asking questions, but she couldn't understand. Her mind was reeling. She felt hem grab at her and pick her up gently onto her feet.

The questions resumed once again. Holly quietly explained what she had heard: Madison's scream then saw her being stabbed in the neck. She had edited it so they didn't know it had been a vampire. The bite had been from the killer, she had said. She shakily was pulled aside away from the crowd. Holly called for Violet quietly to stay by her side and sat on the bleachers.

She heard whispers but their insults were the least of her worries. Holly buried her head in her hands. When the principal told her that her parents were on the way, Holly's dread intensified. She looked at him and tried to beg him not to, but it was fruitless. She looked at Violet and then up as a familiar voice joined the crowd. "Darling, I have it from here." A tall caramel brunette with her hair pulled into a bun was staring down at them with a gentle smile. She was in a detective's uniform. "She will be coming to the police station for further questioning. You can ell her parents they will see her later. Thank you, Principal Greene." He huffed and beckoned the other administrators and cops away with him. "Young lady, what is your name?" Phoenix smiled down at her gently, masking her concern and grief.

"H-Holly." She stammered out, trying to act as if she didn't know Phoenix. Thank God. It was as if a weight had been lifted from her chest. She was shaking so bad she saw Phoenix bite her lip worriedly. Holly looked down at her hands so she didn't look Nix in the eyes. "Blackthorn," Nix scribbled down her replies on a pad of paper as she nodded along.

"All right Ms. Blackthron, can you describe the student who was attacked?" Her vocie was sweeter than sugar and warm and gentle. It reminded her of hot chocolate on a winter day.

Holly stared at her briefly and nodded. "Her name is Madison Moore, and she's a sophomore. She's very sweet and doesn't get into trouble. She does her homework on time and was President of Key Club last year."

"Drugs? Alcohol of any kind?"

"No."

Phoenix nodded and glanced around quickly. When no one was around, she looked at Violet. "Good job, Vi, on the alarm. I'm proud of you. You're so amazing, sweetie." She then nodded to Holly. "You'll come in the car with me. I'll get you out of today's classes, okay? We'll go to the hunter's base." Phoenix gently waved to Violet inconspicuously and left with Holly.
