Chapter 1

"Iggy, Eraser straight in front of you!"

That was all Max could yell before she plunged back into the huge fight of Eraser* VS Bird Kids*. There were a lot of Erasers, nothing the flock couldn't deal with, but there were a lot of them and they were doing a lot of damage. As Max wrestled with the Eraser she was fighting, another one punched her right in the ribs. It hurt but Max didn't say a word, she was so angry that all she thought about was defeating the Erasers and protecting the flock she led. Fang and Nudge were doing really well, even though Nudge had black eye and Fang had a bleeding nose. Gazzy and Iggy were being their usual selves, blowing up Erasers, and Angel was using her mind control powers to defeat the Erasers surrounding her. The more Erasers the flock killed, the more reinforcement would come. The flock was seriously outnumbered, and no one would have the chance to tell Iggy where the Erasers were because he was blind. The flock were not very good at giving up so they fought on, even though they were getting beaten pretty badly. The Erasers were going to win when….

"The key which hides the power of the stars, show your true form before me, I, Sakura, command you under our contract. RELEASE, Sword!"

Then, a girl about the age of 10 started to run towards the flock, a pink sword in her hand. She was closely followed by a boy the same age, also carrying a sword.

"Get away, it's too dangerous!" Max managed to yell.

The girl kept on running, and when she and the boy reached the flock, they started slashing and cutting at the Erasers, till there was not one of them left. Most of the Erasers had fled; running back to the School, the place where the flock was raised, brought up in cages, being kept locked up like lab rats.

"Why did you help us?" Max asked as she checked that none of her flock was badly injured.

"Because we saw that you needed help" the girl replied, "Anyway, I'm Sakura Kinomoto and this is Syaoran Li," she said as she gestured toward the boy standing next to her. "What is your name?"

Max decided that this girl could not possibly work for the School.

"I'm Max, that's Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gazzy and Angel" Max said.

"Hi" all the other bird kids said together, all except for Fang who kept quiet.

"Do you need help?" Sakura asked.

"No, not really" Max said.

"Anyway come back to my house, so you can treat your wounds"

"What was that you said before?"Max asked

"Oh, that!" "That was magic, real magic." I'll show you if you promise not to tell anyone, Syaoran can perform magic too"

Sakura led the flock to a quiet ally and said the magic phrase. A small key that was like a circle that had a star in the middle with wings at the side and a short pink handle became a staff and Syaoran's sword was as impressive.

"That was cool" Gazzy said, "We now know two people like us!"

"What do you mean by 'like us'? Syaoran asked.

The flock slowly unfolded their wings.

"I know what you mean now" Syaoran said.

"Anyway, let's hurry home." Sakura said. "Nobody is at home so your secret will be safe with the two of us."

"Let me out!" somebody said in a muffled voice.

"Kero-chan!" Sakura exclaimed.

She unzipped her small bag that was on her back and out came a small creature with wings. It looked like it was about to suffocate.

"Don't forget about me" Kero said, and with that he transformed to his true self, a lion with pale yellow wings and amber eyes.

"That was cool too!" Gazzy said.

Let's go back now, before big brother gets back."

That was the first chapter of this story!

*Erasers: human – lupine creatures created by the School to hunt down the flock. They have really long sharp claws and are very strong when they are in full wolf form. They can turn into humans too, to blend in.

*Bird Kids: Also known as 'The Flock', they are human – avian beings, created by the School but escaped and are being hunted down. They have wings and can fly; they also have air sacs to help them fly at very high points. They are starting to develop more powers of their own.
