I can hear voices close by. I cant hear what they are saying but they are arguing about something. Ugh! I have hearing like a hawk and I cant hear people that sound only 50 ft. away! I can smell something familiar, its not a good smell...it has a scary smell to it. If you can smell scary. There is a pain all over my body, but I cant focus on that. I need to find out where I am and how I can get back to the flock. The pain was so excruciating I could hardly concentrate on my thoughts let alone what the heck they were talking about.

I have a feeling about this place that seems very familiar and scary. I don t want them to know that I am awake. I need to gain as much information as possible. Focus Max! Focus!

"...cant...risky.." is what i thought one of them said.

"She...it...me..." The other said.

Beep...beep...beep...beep..

The beeping sped up the more they were talking and then they stopped. I herd foot steps coming closer to me.

"We know you are awake. You cant fool us 57," one said using my very very old name from school. My eyes shot open to the experiment number I was given along time ago.

"How do you know that?" I screamed at the horrible name the white coats had given me.

"What? You don t remember me?" My eyes widened in horror as I finally realized who was standing over me.

"NO! It cant be!" Tears started to fill my eyes. Knowing this person was knowing that the pain I was going through right now is nothing compared to what pain I will be going through later.

Everyone is upset and blaming them selves for what happened to Max. Expecially Dylan. He keeps beating at the wall of the cave and calling himself names. Iggy is going through ways he could have stopped this from happening to Max. Gazzy is doing the same thing. Nudge is in so much shock that she isn t thinking or doing anything. (Which is almost impossible because she is always thinking about something!) I on the other hand am trying to figure out where they would take her.

Reading minds is paying off. Its also good the erasers haven t gotten any smarter than the last time. If they were then they would have split up and followed us while the others stayed to get Max. But they were all to excited about how master will be happy that he would be the one to bring the people birds to him.

They were not that smart of course because once they...had her...they were thinking back to South Columbia. I have studied the world map for as long as I can remember and there is no South Columbia that I know of. Maybe some of the others would know what they were thinking.

"Hey, guys?" I tried getting their attention, but no one paid any mind to me. Ugh! Why is it that everyone never listens to me! Just because I am the youngest does not mean I don t have anything important to say! I have most of the powers out of the whole flock and I get treated like a kid! Im not a kid! I have gone through just as much as they have and just because of my age they don t listen! I let my anger fuel my words! I will be herd! "Fine! Don t listen to a thing I say! Max did what she did to keep us happy! I can read minds and she is not dead they have taken her to another school! She didn t care what they did she was just wanting our safety! Our safety is more important to her than her own life!" They stopped what they were doing to listen but when I stopped they went back to what they were doing. This pissed the crap out of me! (just because I am 8 does not mean I don t know or use words like pissed. I read minds for crying out loud) "Whatever," I said in a calmer voice and stepped to the end of the cave. I have a few ideas of where she could be and I am not sitting around like a bunch of babies, Nudge shot a thought to me.

She was like a mom to us. How could you not be upset?

"I am. I m just the only one willing to do anything about it," And with that I jumped and spread my wings. I don t need them to find Max! I can do it with out a bunch of babies there just to slow me down. I was slowly flying up trying to control my anger. When I got the breath knocked out of me.

The first thing that came to mind was eraser, but I would have known of their plan along time ago. And then I hear Dylan s voice and I stop struggling as much.

"With Max gone we have to stick together. You know that more than anyone. You are being blinded my your anger. Max wouldn t want us to split up," he said slowly letting my calm myself. Once I stopped pushing him to let go he let go.

"I know. It s just you don t know what it is like being at a school. They toucher you till you do what they want and sometimes you just cant and its not until hours later that they figure your not lying when you say 'I can t.' Then they will inject things into you and tell you to try again. When they don t need us any more they put us in dog crates. They never allowed us to fly. They chained us up to the wall so if we tried we couldn t get away. They were not dumb. They didn t feed us enough to make sure if we tried to fly or escape we wouldn t have the energy to. We all still have nightmares about it. Scared that one day we will have to go through it again. And right now Max is the one going through it and I m going to do something about it with or with out your guy s help," In the middle of me telling Dylan how horrible school was the rest of the flock flew up next to us to listen. They all flinched every time I described the pain we all went through.

"She's right. We cant just sit here and mope about what happened but try to stop what she is going to go through," Iggy is the one who spoke up with me. I smiled at him and then looked at the others begging them to help us.

You are my sister. I have to look after you.

Gazzy smiled at me and I smiled back at my brother.

Cant let you have all the fun with out me.

Nudge thought to me and we smiled at each other.

The last person to say yes was Dylan and he was still thinking this would be a waste of our time because he still thinks Max is dead.

"She's not dead. Have you forgotten that I can read minds? Their 'master' wanted us alive. 'Master' will be so happy now that he can finish his experiments is what they were all thinking. They took her to a school," I said trying to convince him to come with us.

You guys are the only family I've got. Where els would I go?

He thought to me and we also exchanged smiles.

"Where did you have in mind we go?" Iggy asked. And for once I was the leader.
