I own nothing
I woke up but as I started to open my eyes, the light I was unnacustomed to was bright enough to hurt so I left them closed.
I wiggled my fingers as I heard a gasp.
" Madame Pomfrey! The girl is awake!" The voice was feminine and soft, and as I opened my eyes to a light less painfull, the face I saw matched.
A tall, willowy girl with dark red hair was standed beside the bed I was in, a chair behind her looking like it was pushed away in haste as she stood.
A busty looking woman came running towards us with two vials of liquid.
"Here darling, you drink these up quickly and then you can have some food. You must be hungrey! You were unconcious for three days." She shoved the contents of the vials down my throat before I could react, as if she were used to people not wanting to swallow them willingly.
I soon found out why when I felt the aftertaste on my tongue.
I saw another young girl around my age come in with a tray of food and hand it to the red haired girl, exchanging a few quite words.
The busty woman, whom I assume was Madame Pomfrey, came back around the curtain which I think held the rest of the hospital like place and adressed the girl with me.
"Excuse me Miss Evans but I must go check on Mr Lupin. I will be back soon, please answer any questions she may have, but only after she eats some food, we do not want her to pass out after she has just awoken."
As the girl brought the food close enough to smell I felt the pain of my empty stomach hit and at the moment, I couldn't care less if it was poisened. It smelt delicious.
The girl sat back down in the chair and fed me bite by bite untill there was noting left of the oatmeal and toast.
"Now that you're done eating, my name is Lily. What's yours?"
I thought about lying but the place seemed to friendly to be part of the school, and even if they were scientists, then they would already know who I am.
"Max. Why do you want to know?" I asked.
"Because, when Professor Dumbledore came and asked Madam Pomfrey and I to take care of you, we did, and know we need to find out who you are, especially considering your odd circumstances." With that, she gave me a look and I know she had seen my wings.
I also saw that they had been a surprise to her, so I knew she couldn't be from the school, they would all know about me.
"My name is Maximum Ride, and if you want to know if I am human, I am. Well, at least partly. I will only tell you more if I know I can trust you."
"You can. My name is Lily Evans, and although I am completely human, I am definitely not normal." She responded, sounding just as final as I had.
I think I am starting to like this girl.
"Well Lily, I am part bird." At this she just looked astounded."Only 2%, the rest is all human. You might have noticed that I have wings. There are also others like me. Five more. They were my family aup until recently and the six of us have spent all our time on the run from the people who made us part-avian. They also made part wolf part human combinations, and they use them to hunt us down." I was telling Lily about me, and it felt strange, like some kind of weight was lifted.
I guess Fang wasn't the only one I could confide in.
"And Lily, can you promise not to tell?" I ask, already going through the situations in my head if she decided to tell everyone.
"Don't worry. I will only tell Professor Dumbledore and Madame Pomfrey. You can trust them." She reassured.
She told me to get some rest and I fixed the soft pillows and blankets and closed my eyes as she came back with another vial.
I drank it and then I fell asleep, nightmares taunting me , but never actually there.
