Y/N: Come on Max I don't need to see Chloe die for a third time it will break me this time like seriously I could probably have PTSD at this point now, you can't do this again we can't let her die

Max: I don't wanna chose

Chloe: You're the only one who can choose Max... and I know you'll do the right thing, which ever choice

You thinks about it long and hard until she's taken out of her trace by Chloe

Chloe: Max... it's time

Y/N: Come on Max please you can't do this again

She tears up the photo

Max: Not anymore

Chloe: I'll always be with you... forever

You all just stare at the storm as it crashes through Arcadia Bay destroying everything in its path 

Y/N: Its okay Max just don't look

After the storm sets and morning hits you all get in Chloe's truck and finally leave Arcadia Bay

This is a possibility in a multiverse of infinite outcomes, this is only one version of what happened next...

One Year After the Storm

Pixie: Oh em gee, Maxi Max these look frigging awesome

Max: Pixie when you call me that you make me sound like a sanitary product

Y/N: How about Maxi Clean... it's my new and improved cleaning product

Max: Oh no just please stop well you're at it

Y/N: Okay okay... but seriously Pixie's right, my Maximus is a natural, it just comes to her

Max: Look I'm okay at best

Y/N: You don't give yourself enough credit Maxi moo

Tammi: You too are so cute together

Y/N: We've been here a year and you still say this

Tammi: Because it's true

Pixie: Look Y/N's right you're super awesome Max you deserve more than one syllable in your name girl, look at how badass you made us look Tammi you look so fierce

Tammi: Didn't need a photo to tell me that

Y/N: Sure you didn't

Tammi: I think you're just jealous of me

Y/N: Of what being a cool rock band huh... I guess the thought never crossed my mind

Tammi: What's your favorite band

Y/N: The Rolling Stones obviously

Tammi: You were supposed to say us

Y/N: Sure I'll give you second place

Tammi: Good enough

Max: Come on you guys are cool with or without me taking your photos, but thanks for letting me take then

Pixie: Pfft, like we're doing you a favor look at these... it's like you have Magic Powers

Y/N: Yeah like...

Pixie: Did you say something

Y/N: Oh uh no sorry

Max: Look they're just photos

Dex: Talented and humble, gotta say Chloe's logo came out great

Pixie: Right, where is Chloe anyways

Y/N: Tagging walls or smoking it up I'd assume

Dwight: Well hopefully she's not watching TV

You look at the TV as it talks more about a familiar place

Reporter: This event will mark one year since the storm swept through Arcadia Bay, destroying homes, businesses, and lives... The Prescott family themselves still mourning the loss of son Nathan Prescott to the storm

Y/N: Yeah the storm, that's utter crap

Reporter: Hope that this memorial service will offer a long needed chance for goodbyes, the family and their foundation have donated substantial funding into the relief effort and rebuilding of Arcadia Bay... Sean Prescott is a press conference this morning, he said this of the tragedy "We have all lost a great deal that we'll never get back. The bay will take many years to rebuild but we feel it's important, one year on to gather and remember"

Tammi: Fuck Max... isn't that the storm you, Chloe, and Y/N escaped, that was your school right

Dex: Shit...

Dwight: Amazing how fast they can rebuild when a rich white family lose stuff

Y/N: Really man, she's right here

Pixie: Yeah Dwight jeez not the time

Dwight: Shit, sorry Max sometimes I forget to reach for my filters

Max: It's no... it's cool

You look at Max, at her fake smile trying to hold in how she really feels, you know she's been holding all that guilt in her for so long, a year now and she's become very distant towards you now not even your bad jokes can get a reaction out of her

Dex: I can't believe how lucky you guys were, that death count is insane, shit how many people did you-

Pixie: Dex!

Y/N: Enough to keep me up at night

Just then the door opens as a green haired girl walks inside

Chloe: Sup losers, how about we switch the channel... that's enough real life for today kiddies

Max: Woah Chloe!

Y/N: You got knew dreads there Price, looking fierce

Chloe: I was just getting tired of the blue wanted to try something new... Wait whoa Max these look hella awesome, looks like someone's getting there mojo back sista

Y/N: Yeah She's way to modest though

Max: Well these guys make it easy, were you at the repair shop this morning

Chloe: Uh huh I'm taking this internship seriously, I think I actually like it, your rents have credit in my thank bank for setting it up

Max: Hey you know they we're all happy too

Y/N: Honesty an internship would be better than working at a coffee shop at this point... your lucky Price

You see Max a lot more happy after Chloe's arrived, she usually is now when Price is here

Chloe: Uh can you two help me with something in my truck I need two peeps for it

Y/N: Wonderful Price I'd be glad too

Max: Uh okay

You all walk into the bathroom

Y/N: Um not what I was expecting... kinky though that's for sure

Chloe: I just wanna talk

Y/N: Okay you've got my attention Price... it's just the last we we're all in a bathroom you know

Chloe: I know you'd think I'd never want to find solace in a bathroom again, but for some reason I still feel fucking safe in one

Max: That's because we saved you in one... yeah from a lunatic who apparently died in a storm... you heard that

Y/N: Yeah... but-

Max: Can we not... they're all gone now, however they went they're gone, none of that matters anymore

Y/N: And I'm glad for that... the psychos I mean of course not the bystanders

Chloe: So did you both get one too, an invitation to that thing

Max: I figured the one I got was for both all of us

Chloe: Because we just rent here

Max: Sorry it came out wrong, you both live here as much as I do

Y/N: Hey I only get minimum wage at a crap job

Max: Look this is our home right

Chloe: Sure... sure I just

Max: I know nothing can replace what you both lost, but I want you both to be happy here

Y/N: I didn't have much going on back at the bay to be honest... so it isn't like much has changed

Chloe: What we lost, kind of dramatic Max, sometimes I wonder if I should just move back and take mom's offer of a job, I mean maybe the diner isn't so bad, dad's probably right

Max: I... what!

Y/N: Excuse but could you repeat that sentence  Chloe!

Max: Chloe...

Y/N: Price what do you mean

Chloe: I think I feel the same us all going together would be too weird, wrong... Max you okay

You look at Max who's looks completely out of it

Max: What was all that about your dad! The diner... your mom!

Chloe: What I didn't say- Shit I can't think about mom right now, maybe she's the biggest reason I don't want to go back to Arcadia... Max what's wrong

Max: I... I don't... I don't know

Y/N: About what you said... nevermind, Max are you okay

Max: Nothing, it's all good, I'm fine, just emotional, after that news piece you know, I don't know I'm supposed to feel

Chloe: I hear that one of us probably shouldn't even be standing here right

Y/N: I don't know about that Price, like I said before we determine our own fate now, nothing holds us apart now

Chloe: It's just hard to not think about though, you know

Max: You're here and we wouldn't change that for anything

Chloe: Okay okay enough with the mushy shit

Max: I wouldn't of been the same if I never saw you again I'm glad I came back even after all that happened

Y/N: I'm even glad I came back as much as I hated that town

Chloe: You know what, after everything that happened when you both came back... I think I believe you wonder twins

Max: Don't call us that

Y/N: Been awhile since I heard that name...

Just then the door opens

Y/N: (Question so if I was actually using the restroom they'd just barge in here)

Tammi: Hey guys rehearsal room is open and we're going in, see you at the gig tomorrow and don't forget it's pirate theme! Photographers and designers, and groupes don't get out of it!

Y/N: Trust me when I say these two won't wanna to get out of it

Chloe: Oh we're all over that ahoy!

Max: Oo'arr matey

Y/N: See what I mean captain

Tammi: Arrrr, we be leavin' the storm behind cap'n

Max: Aye aye...

Hours Later

You walks into Max room to chat

Y/N: Hey

Max: Oh uh hey

Y/N: You feeling okay Maximus Prime

Max: Yeah I'm okay just a tad tired

Y/N: Oh sorry if you want me to leave I'll go no questions asked

Max: No you're fine

Y/N: You sure Maxine

Max: Yeah yeah I enjoy the company

Y/N: Well that makes two of us

You sit down next to her on a couch

Y/N: So... uh what are you up too

Max: Nothing at the moment I was just listening to music

Y/N: Yeah music's hella cool did I ever tell you my favorite band

Max: Yes after staying here long enough we've heard it

Y/N: Heh... So Miss Maxnimony you living the American dream as they say yet... 

Max: We're all here together you, me, and Chloe

Y/N: Plus a rock band

Max: Yeah plus a rock band

Y/N: Never would of guess Seattle would be like this it's way better than expected

Max: What you expect

Y/N: A less country Arcadia Bay... it's just doesn't sound like a city name

Max: It's more of a city and less of a town

Y/N: Yeah but not as crazy as Cali was, or I assume New York is even though I've never been myself

Max grabs the guitar off it's stand

Y/N: You sure Dwight doesn't mind you gracing his precious guitar

Max: It's cool, I've just missed playing

Y/N: Wait you play the guitar Max

Max: Yeah I had one at my- I had one, but it wasn't an electric guitar that's for sure

Y/N: I always thought they we're cool but never had the determination to stick to it and learn how to play one

Max: Most people don't... but I could teach you, uh if you want to

Y/N: I'd love too Maxine

Max: Max never Maxine

Y/N: I know I just don't-

Max: Care

Y/N: Finishing my sentences for me now huh

Max: Uh, here

She hands you the guitar

Max: It's already tuned so don't worry over that just put your hands here on the strings

Y/N: Wait over in middle

Max: No silly on the handled part

She grabs your hand as she moves it down the guitar 

Y/N: So did you tune it already

Max: Yes

Y/N: Okay so where or when do I start to play this 

Max: On the strings

Y/N: Do I need a pick thing

Max: No where just playing it for a minute 

You put your fingers on the strings 

Y/N: Like this

Max: Uh yeah wait let me help you 

She sits closer to you pushing your hand on the right spot

Y/N: You can come closer if you want 

Max: I uh don't uh...

Y/N: Anyone ever tell you that your gorgeous eyes Max

You inch closer to her face as she blushes and looks away

Y/N: Are you scared of me Maximus 

Max: What uh no

Y/N: why are you avoiding me then

Max: I am not 

Y/N: Max a year ago today there was a crazy fucking storm and teacher that almost killed us... but before we left in the car I tried to tell you something but you stopped me, do you remember 

Max: I think I have an idea yes

Y/N: You never asked what I wanted to say later down the line

Max: You never brought it up

Y/N: Well I'm bringing it up now 

Max: What was it then 

Y/N: It was a uh, oh it was something about her...

Max: Oh, do you still think about her Rachel

Y/N: I would be lying if I said I wasn't... buts it less now that I think about her

Max: Here uh play this string 

Y/N: Uh okay

You pull it 

Max: Now this one, and that one and that and that

Y/N: Wow okay that was a lot Max

Max: Now do it all together 

Y/N: Um okay 

You play all of them simultaneity

Y/N: Woah not bad that sounded pretty good actually 

Max: See you we're good at that

Y/N: I'm don't think I'll be the new Beethoven or Jimi Hendrix for that matter

Max: You just have to practice little by little

Y/N: Why don't you play something Maxine's Silver Hammer

Max: I'll try let's see I think I can remember one song... let's see

(Play the song above also this ain't me just a random video I found)

Y/N: Wow Maximus that was I don't know how to describe it... your amazing at that you sure you shouldn't join the band as well

Max: I'm okay nowhere near as good as Dwight

Y/N: Max quit being so modest... you're awesome I thought we got past this  

Max: I've just been out of it after seeing the news

Y/N: Max we'll all be okay... its just news 

Max: Maybe getting my pirate will help 

Y/N: Yeah I bet... see you Maximus you should get some sleep

Max: Wait

She stands up and walks over to you and kisses you on the cheek, and you smile to yourself

Y/N: Night Max don't let the bed bugs bite

You walk out of there and go to sleep

12 Hours later

Y/N: So are we ready for this little shindig

Max: Wait Chloe are you okay 

Chloe: Its just what you both said before that they're all gone, its true... but to pretend it was all one big storm makes us no different to the Prescott's... Rachels life was taken from her before the storm Kates life was nearly destroyed, it wasn't an etch-a-sketch ending, we can't process it all in one go, we've tried that... my mom she didn't share all their endings

Chloe's starts walking away from the party

Y/N: Price wait where are you going 

Max: Yeah Chloe wait, where are you going!

Chloe: Lets go we don't even know anybody there

Max: What about Pixie, Tammi, and the guys... they're expecting us

Chloe: I know I said I'd try meeting trendy new Seattle friends, but I'm tired maybe another time

Y/N: Price come on just take a breath

Max: Chloe not again Dex, Dwight you know them., we've all been friends with them for most of the year... 

Y/N: Max come on its okay lets just party

Chloe: Max, I'm sorry come back, we'll talk about this later for now lets just get off our heads drunk and high and enjoy some music... fuck Max

Y/N: Maxine you're back

Max: Huh.. what

Y/N: Your nose Max its bleeding

Chloe: Have you two both been jumping in time again you promised you wouldn't it nearly killed you both

Max: No Chloe I swear we haven't, we didn't jump we did nothing

Y/N: Yeah I could tell if Max was hopping through time 

Chloe: Then why is she bleeding 

Y/N: I don't know, you know nose bleeds happen all the time which are not linked with crazy super powers as well Price

Max: No she's right I don't know what but after I opened that invite weird things started happening, I keep seeing things... Y/N did earlier

Y/N: I did

Max: Look guys I feel fine, but Chloe was walking back that way

Y/N: I don't recall that Maximus 

Chloe: Yeah we paused under that lamp then we kept going except we didn't notice you walking you turn around, you were walking away

Max: No me and Y/N were following 

Chloe: I was heading to the bar

Y/N: And I was following Price

Max and Chloe: Shit

Y/N: Well crap baskets 

Pixie: There you are!

Dex: Were on in like ten minutes get your shriving timber butts in here

Max: We'll figure this out later okay

Y/N: I can take you home Max it's no problem

Max: No we need tonight guys I just need to not think about Arcadia Bay or the storm 

Chloe: Okay we'll both go with you but tell us if reality goes awol again right

Y/N: Yeah Maximus you have to say something 

Max: Of course don't worry 

Chloe: Like you can accuse us o f being over protective 

You all walk into the party

Pixie: Ready to make some photo graphics magic

Tammi: That be our drummer

Pixie: I'm not the drummer

She goes up to the stage

Y/N: Uh beer and pirate costumes this is a first for sure

Chloe: Come on take a mug

Y/N: You see I'm more of a Gin type of guy thank you very much 

Chloe: What are you scared of a little beer

Y/N: Fine but this is so peer pressure at its worst 

Tammi: And there by the bar be our special mateys we dedicate this first song to them aa'rrrr

They start playing 

Max: Kind of hits the nail on the head right

Y/N: Yeah they're kinda blunt... as usual 

Max: But still good

Y/N: Yeah of course, what do you think Price... Price!

Max: CHLOE!

Y/N: Where the hell did she go Max

Max: Hey have you seen are friend Chloe 

Y/N:
