Chapter 4

I stared at Fang in shock, "That's impossible! I just woke up."

He growled and his jaw clenched, "Apparently it is. You were doing something, they would threaten you when we wouldn't comply."

"You shouldn't have worried about me." I scolded, "You sould have been taking care of the flock."

He exploded, "How the Hell was I not supposed too? I had no idea what you were doing, where you were! You don't even know what you were doing! I tried to make sure the flock was safe but there is only so much I can do. Angel is beside herself, she freaked when she couldn't hear you."

I sighed and noticed he had dog tags. I reached up to grab them.

"What the hell are you doing?" He asked exasperated. I swatted his hand away and showed him my own as I held his.

"I'll show you mine if you show me yours." I grinned.

He rolled his eyes but took the dog tags as I read his:

EXPERIMENT 020835492

AVIAN HYBRID

LEVEL 12

Other one:

FANG

ALPHA MALE

M.E. EXPERIMENT

N/W

I scrunched my nose and gave Fang a WTF look. He was staring at my dog tags with a look of concentration.

I think he needs medication.

I gently took them from his hands and let his drop back on his chest. He looked at me stoically.

"Do you know what any of this shit means?" I asked hopefully.

He stared at me for a minuted before answering, "We think the levels are the levels of danger. Not really sure. The rest of it we don't have any ideas. But then again we havent really been able to brainstorm."

I groaned and looked back at the tags when I was hit with a blinding pain through my skull and would've sunk to the ground if Fang hadn't caught me.

"Max!" He roared and I saw his eyes go obsidian before I was hit with something entirely different than what i'm used too.


I was in a room packed with computers. They were printing out lists of numbers:

01000294729

01883279022

97472923018

04008403683

"We have gotten the results." A boy with brown hair spoke to a big red headed boy. They were standing in front of a big glass window.

"I see that. Let's hope they are better than the last ones. They won't be happy if the variables haven't improved." The red head said and took the papers from the brown headed boy. After flipping through them he tried to hide a grin.

"So Fang is going into instinctual mode often?" He asked.

"Whenever you bring up Maximum he goes off on everyone." The brown head informed him.

"Well he can have her back. After she does her share of course." The red head laughed and threw a wink over his shoulder to...me.


The door to the room flew open and Fang crouched over me and deep snarls were rumbling from his chest, "Mine!"

A scientist and an eraser tried to charge Faang but he threw them across the room and repeated, "Mine!"

A scientist made his way through the crowd held up his hands and said calmly, "Yours. We just need to make sure she is alright."

I know that voice.

I jump up and try to shimmy around Fang but he just puts an arm around me and holds me behind him. I felt a red haze cloud my vision for a moment before it disappeared quickly.

Strange..

I opt to yell furiously instead, "I'm fine, no thanks to you!" I glance at Fang, "Thanks a lot! Now you've gone and pissed him off!"

Jeb looks at me and smiles as if I just made his day , "Hello, sweetheart."

"Don't call me that!" I snarl which in turn makes Fang growl louder, "Why am I here?"

"I think you know the answer to that, Maximum. The hindbrai-" Jeb started to explain but I cut him off belligerently.

"I know! I know! Animal instincts. What? You just had screw us up some more?"

He looked offended, "I did not do this. It was your human DNA responding to the avian DNA. We have been doing tests, we may have a way for you to control it."

I gave him a dirty look, "Now tell me why I doubt this comes without consequences."

"Is it so hard to believe that we just want to help you?" He inquired.

I just gave him a blank look.

He sighed, "Maximum, we really need to run some tests on you..."

"Isn't that what you've been doing? Apparently I have been missing for TWO MONTHS and I don't remember shit!" I screamed.

The scientists shifted and shared a brief, worried look that I barely caught, "You were merely resting. Your body was reacting differently to the change and we needed to make sure you were stable." Jeb explained.

"How nice of you. Now, more importantly: Where. Is. My. Flock." I demanded.

"You cannot see them right now-" A beep went off, signaling something and, ignoring us, they walked out of the room, bolting the door behind them.

Not before they threw something else in though.


Authors note

I meant to update sooner but I was having some problems. Also sorry its so damn short but I figured it was better than nothing.

Dose anyone know whats going on?

What did they throw in there?

I have heard this a couple times but no: level 19 is not the hormone level.

Review!
