Hey all,
I was very disapointed about how many people actually went and did the poll. Only 14 people did it (I love those people) and i was expecting more like 20. I am very disapointed. Please if you haven't done the poll can you please do it.
Well I hope you enjoy this chapter. Got some action here.

Chapter 8: Close save
Fang POV
I took off. My black wings silently lifting me off the ground. I was quick to speed up. But I didn't go too quickly. If I was going to find Iggy, crashing into a tree wouldn't help.
I hated leaving Max. I would never forgive myself if she got hurt. But I couldn't argue with her. She was our leader. And my girlfriend.
I heard a gun go off behind me. It was near me. I changed my direction and grounded my teeth. I had enough of this shooting. Time to kick Eraser's ass'.
My senses were telling me that the Eraser was on my left. I picked a thick branch and landed silently, tucking in my wings. I stood still, barely breathing as my sharp ears and eyes scanned the forest.
Birds were going mad. They were squawking and chirping. I ignored that and listened for any non forest noises.
Found one. Right behind me about 300 maybe 400 meters away. There was a crunching of heavy feet. I smirked. Got him.
I jumped off the branch and flew at canopy level. I approached another branch and landed. This time I didn't predicted it right and almost fell off. Almost.
I listened again and instantly my eyes looked down. There was the Eraser. His gun was up and he was constantly turning around, afraid that I was going to come from behind. He knew I was near by. Max had mentioned that Erasers had excellent sense of hearing and smell. I knew that he would defiantly be able to smell me, maybe possibly be able to hear me flying.
A plan formed in my head. I watched him as he continued to walk. Two more steps… one… NOW!
I slid off the branch. The Eraser aimed his gun up, but he was too late to shoot. I landed on his shoulders and he toppled to the ground. I heard a couple of cracks and winced. Ouch.
I hopped off the now unconscious Eraser, before crouching back down beside him. I searched through his pockets. A lighter, a small prescription bottle half full of white tablets, a ball point pen, a small note book, the latest IPod nano and a wallet.
I examined the prescription bottle. Pain killers. Odd.
I checked the wallet next. 2 20 dollar notes, a 5 dollar note and some coins. Not too bad. There was also a credit card, fuel saving card, a couple of coupons cut out of a magazine or something and a recite.
I picked up the piece of paper. I unfolded it slowly, but I read it quickly.
REPORT.
TASK: Capture the 6 hybrid creations ASAP. DO NOT KILL. Injure if necessary to capture. Dangerous and threat to project "Bi-half".
MAIN TARGET(S): Experiment: 192851647632, "Maximum". Brown haired, tall, white winged. Possible Main leader?

ITEX
"Bi-half?" I whispered to myself in confusion. There was a twig crack a meter away from behind me.
I jumped, span and dived all in less than a second. The Eraser was two slow to react. He fell back and hit his head on the ground hard. His gun flew somewhere though the trees. His eyes rolled to the back of his head and his body loosened.
I graved the wallet, IPod and the note from the first Eraser and stuffed it into my bag. I found the same note in the second Eraser's pockets as well as his wallet ($37.35 and a couple of cards), mobile phone, pen, note book, small whisky bottle and an IPod shuffle.
What ever this "Bi-half project" was about, it defiantly had something to do with us. If the "Report" was correct, then we are in the way of this "Bi-half project" from happening. It was quite obvious that Itex wanted us out of the way or in control to perform this project. They were giving out huge rewards for us. Mostly for Max. Which meant that the Eraser's would most likely go for Max.
And Max was pregnant… and weak. I knew the true reason why Max wanted us to head in early. She was tired. She was getting weaker every day. Not by much, but enough that I notice.
The sooner I find Iggy, the sooner I can find Max.
After stuffing everything in my bag. I stood up and looked around the forest. Now, where would Iggy…
Then there was the boom.
A massive ball of fire rolled about 50m above the forest. Branches and leafs flew up with the flames and the smell of fire wafted though the forest quickly. There were a couple of shouts and screams. Hundreds of birds and animals sprinted past me. I raised and eye brow and shock my head. Max won't be happy Iggy.
I took off and flew towards where I saw the ball of fire. It wasn't far way. Maybe a 300… less. Max would have seen where ever she was.
There was a flash of skin color to the right of me. Iggy?
Hey Fang… could use some help here.
I dodged another thick tree before changing my direction to the right. 2 sets Guns went of in all directions. I smirked slightly when I saw Iggy fighting two Erasers, in a small black clearing. The Trees around the edge of the clearing were leaning away slightly, only having half of there leafs on them. The ground was covered in black soot and three burnt and unconscious Eraser lay on the ground.
I flew around so I was behind on of the alive Erasers. I dived on him, only to grave the thick branch at the last minute. My feet swung forward and hit the guy in the back of the neck. His gun went flying and the guy landed unconscious on his stomach.
Both Iggy and the second Eraser spun around to face me. I jumped of the branch landing lightly on my feet. Iggy smirked. The Eraser snarled.
I lunged at the Eraser, aiming my fist for his face. He graved it easily and twisted it. I spun around with my arm and landed heavy on my back. The Eraser smiled, but it didn't last long. I watched Iggy kick him in the centre of his back, a giant grin on his face.
The Eraser spun around and snarled. He was about to lung at Iggy, but I graved his foot. The Eraser lost balance and fell on his stomach. Iggy walked over and harshly kicked him in the head. There was a groan, before I felt his leg fall loose.
I climbed to my feet, brushing the dust off my self. I walked over to Iggy and held up my fist. Nice work Ig.
Thanks. He tapped my fist. I dropped my bag somewhere near by.
I looked around and spotted the bag a few meters away from us. I walked over to it and picked it up by the handle. I turned around and my eyes widened at the sight I saw.
An Eraser stood in the shadow of the trees. His gun was raised… pointing straight at Iggy.
"IGG…!" I began to shout before I was cut off by a voice above me.
"NO!"
Time turned slow. The first thing I noticed was the blur of brown feathers streaming towards Iggy. Iggy swirling around and facing the Eraser, his blank eyes oblivious to his danger. The Eraser pulling the trigger on the gun and a single shot being fired. The brown stream collided with Iggy and the two of them skidded across the ground, dust flying everywhere. They finally stopped at the base of the tree.
The dust cleared and it showed Nudge… breathing heavily. Her arms where wrapped tightly the completely dumb stuck Iggy's waist.
