Breaking Back with a Vengeance

Chapter 1: Soul Breaker

(Max's PoV

I can't believe it's only three months, it fells like three years already. I miss him so much. For the record I'm talking about Fang. For the first week I wouldn't leave my bed, but then the hunger set in and I went to get food and water. I stayed inside but I moved. I never talked to anyone and stayed like this for two weeks. Then I would occasionally respond to a question or ask one. Eventually I began to fly again and I almost forgot. Almost, but the void came back again and I kept reading the note over and over again, looking for a clue that isn't there. Then today Jeb decides to pay us a visit. We let him in, to my disappointment, and I realize he's sweating up a storm.

"What Jeb run a few miles before you came," I said

"There's another Flock," he says panting.

"So what your saying is that somebody has been keeping secrets from you and there is another flock," I said while we were sitting down.

"Not just that but this flock's job is capture, or kill I'm not sure which, you," he said. When he dropped that bomb the room became silent until I hear Iggy yell from kitchen because he dropped a can on his foot.

"So what does that mean to us, we've got some great fighters," I said.

"I think there going after Fang," he said ", and they aren't your normal recombinants they were designed to kill. One of there abilities surpasses even angel's. On top of that they're heartless, they have no mercy. When I heard about them he showed me a video of a real world training exercise. Here I brought it with me."

He took the DVD and put in the TV as we all gathered around and gazzy was by iggy to explain everything. It started playing and it showed five people, three guys and two girls, flying, chasing someone. The camera zoomed in and we realized it was a kid no more than fourteen years of age.

"Assassination plan: Soul Break," said the oldest one into a communicator in his ear as the others broke off. I watched as he snapped his wings in and dive bombed downwards. At the last second he snapped out his wings breaking his fall. He landed in front of the kid and the kid turned around. He then ran straight into one of the girls. He than ran to his left, right into one of the guys. He went right into another female. Than the strangest thing happened, the kid let out his white wings and started to fly away. That's when the last guy grabbed his head in one hand. The kid then began to scream in agony.

"Please let me go," He yelled ", I have nothing."

"You have life which I'd be happy to deprive you of," said the guy holding onto the kid. Then the kid let out one final scream and the guy set him down. One of them checked his pulse and nodded. The kid was dead. The five looked around and saw seven children; they all looked to be around nine, staring at them.

"Shao may I do the honors," said one of the females to the oldest, Shao. He nodded and she flicked her wrists as two knifes came out of her arms painfully. She walked towards the kids and they ran. I can't even describe what happened, partially because it was too fast but partially because it was too gruesome. Let's just say that seven children are officially missing.

Angel, Gazzy, Nudge and Iggy were crying, even I was a little wet eyed.

"What was that," I asked ", that one guy did."

"They call it 'Soul Breaking.' He intrudes your mind and releases all your worst fears and when it's too much your body shuts down," Jeb said.

"You die," I translated and he nodded.

"And the girl," I asked.

"She must've had blades installed into her body, plus your super speed ability," Jeb said.

"And the oldest, Shao, what do you know about him."

"The least, I have no idea what he does but it's worse than Soul Breaking apparently. The other guy is able to create small amounts of electricity but in a lightning storm his powers are magnified by ten thousand. The other girl has a unique three hundred sixty degree vision; you can't sneak up on them. They cover each other's weaknesses. Like how when Soul Breaking someone can't see or act.

"So what you're saying is there unbeatable," I said grimly.

"Or so we thought, Max I know you swore never to get help from me but I can help. We can help," He said.

"Who is we," I asked already knowing the answer

"Scientists all around the world, we've learned from our mistakes," He said ", I'm not some zealous idiot, I learned a lot. I think I finally understand the only way to save the world is to let the world make its own choices. I'm not saying you have to come with me but I'm offering you a chance. I can't promise it won't be painless nor without possible loss, but I can promise we can help make you at least a challenge for the second flock."

I looked around at all the stunned faces of my flock, Including Dylan who happened to stay.

"So what would you do," asked Dylan.

"For you, nothing. You were designed 'perfectly,' given abilities unlike any others. You were born with a natural sense of fighting. For the rest of them, we would trigger a few genes or adjust some. In the end you would have abilities to match theirs," Jeb said

"I'll need to talk with the rest of them," I said ", could you please wait outside."

He nodded and left. Once he was gone I led them all to the back porch.

"Are you crazy enough to actually consider it," yelled Iggy.

"This isn't like before, you heard what they can do," I said ", if we had even the most minute chance I wouldn't consider it. But the problem is we're out matched on all fronts."

"I say we call a vote," Dylan said ", I won't vote though."

"Sounds good, anybody object," I said ", good a vote it is."

"I'm for it," I said.

"Against," said Iggy.

"For," said Angel.

"Against," said nudge and all faces turned towards gazzy.

"I need time to think," he said. We all nodded and separated.

"So Angel," I said ", was he lying."

"No he was one hundred percent sincere," she said ", it feels weird though. This entire time we thought we were the only bird kids and now this. I'm worried about…"

"Fang," I finished and she nodded. I was worried too but not for the same reasons. I had started to get this feeling like he was watching me, trying to guard me when he was the one in danger.

"That's definitely a different reason," Angel said as she stood up and left. Mind readers.

I went back to my room and started looking around for the laptop to keep me occupied. The thing was I couldn't find it. I tore up the entire room looking for it and the last spot I looked I found a note.

It said:

We Shall Meet Soon. You Cannot Survive.

Shao

How's that for scary. I took the note and showed the rest of the flock and they all agreed to go with Jeb. So off we go to be enhanced genetically. Again. How's that for stunning.

We all went outside were Jeb had a van waiting.

"You shouldn't fly," he said ", mostly because we don't want you finding this place."

"So now what blind folds," I said and he nodded. I rolled my eyes grabbed one got in the car and put it on. When the car started I knew I was never going to remember anything. The car made way to much noise.

We drove for at least an hour until we were grabbed out of the car by two huge hairy things and escorted through a door than another. The blind folds were then removed and I looked around realizing we were in a huge garden/forest surrounded by a camouflaged building. I looked at the guys who were escorting us and they were earsers, minus the wings.

"These are two of the last one hundred earsers, perfected and all here," Jeb said reading my mind ", this is where we will do training exercises using 'Flyboys' we stole."

"Now it's time for your first test," Jeb said ", Oh and don't try to fly above the highest floor."

And that's the first chapter, review if you would like more
