Chapter 4

I woke up, opening my eyes to a harsh white light. I shut them quickly, only to feel pain.

"Mmnnnnggh," I heard a moan, realizing that it was coming from me. Slowly, I opened my eyes. Looking around, I saw the rest of the flock. A wave of relief washed over me; the flock was safe.

They were still asleep… but something was wrong… They were in cages.

Am I at Itex? The school? What did they do to us? A million thoughts rushed into my head at once, making me dizzy.

Calm down, my voice told me.

I don't need your help, voice I thought.

Nudge stirred in her sleep, interrupting my thoughts. I looked over at Fang, who had just woken up. He looked at me, and I stared into his eyes. For a second, I saw fear flash across his face. But only a second.

"Where are we?" Fang whispered. "I think we're at Itex," I whispered back.

Just then, a door opened, followed by footsteps. Fang quickly shut his eyes, pretending to be asleep. The footsteps stopped in front of me. A whitecoat unlatched my cage, and strong hands pulled me the up.

But I wasn't going down that easy.

I punched the whitecoat in his stomach, making a run for it. But two other whitecoats stepped in front of me, blocking my passageway.

"Move." I said coldly.

"No."

"You're asking for it."

I shot straight up in the air, thrusting my wings open. I flew over everyone, heading for Fang's cage. The two whitecoats tried to stop me, but I punched one of them in the nose, hearing a satisfying crack. I threw a roundhouse kick at the other one, making him double down on his knees. Note to self: crack up later.

When I reached Fang's cage, I unlatched it, telling him to free the rest of the flock. Once we were all out of our cages, I broke through the window.

"Let's blow this joint!" I shouted. "Follow me!"

We flew outside, out into the open. I looked back and saw Erasers pouring out of the building… and they had wings. No biggie I thought. They're clumsy anyway, and we can take them just like last time... wait a second… they aren't clumsy! Well that's news to me.

"Oh crap," I muttered to myself. "Guys, these Erasers can actually fly," I told the flock. "Watch your back," I warned.

Then I launched myself at the closest Eraser, throwing one of my favorite roundhouse kicks that hit him right in the jaw. He staggered back, giving me time to throw a punch at him. He looked up at me, then dropped straight down. I heard a loud crunch as he hit the ground.

I turned around and snuck up behind an Eraser. I grabbed his hand and pulled, popping his arm out of its socket. He shrieked and flew away, his arm dangling at his side. Then, two Erasers lunged at me at the same time. I shot upward, making them crash into each other… it was pretty funny.

In the corner of my eye, I saw Nudge fighting three Erasers at once- and she was losing. I quickly flew over, chopping one of the Erasers in the neck. "Thanks," she panted. "No prob." I said.

"You're going to fall now," I heard Angel say. I turned around, watching a confused Eraser drop out of the sky like a bullet. Man, that girl is scaring me, I thought.

Iggy my voice warned. I swiveled around, just in time to see 5 Erasers ganging up on him at once. I slapped my hands against one of the Eraser's ears, making his eardrums pop. He stifled a cry, then dropped like a rock.

Slowly, the remaining Erasers retreated, one by one dropping back to the ground. I motioned the flock to follow me, and we raced upward. As soon as Itex was out of sight, I took a deep breath.

"New batch," said Iggy. "Yeah," I agreed. "And they're bigger and better than before."

"Where were we?" Gazzy asked. "At Itex," Fang said quietly.

"Let's land," I said.
