Chapter 10
"Angel, darling, the new group of bird kids have been created," Dr. G-H called to Angel three days after they were created.
She came running in and stared at them. They were all tall, strong looking, and older looking than Angel. "Oh, my gosh, they are like perfect. Can I name them?"
Dr. Gunther-Hagen nodded and laughed at her excitement.
Angel pointed to the tall red-head that was Max's size. She had white wings, green eyes, and sharp features. "What does she do?" Angel asked inspecting the girl.
"She knows every fighting technique that her opponent will use. She has the charm to make guys fall for her, even though that really isn't a power. Oh, yes, and she can almost fly as fast as Max," he explained.
Angel stared at them for a few seconds before asking, "Do they talk? I mean I want my flock to talk so they can help and give me ideas," she pointed out.
"Yes, they are just very shy and still getting use to the new world," he said.
"I want to name her Marian," she pointed to the red head again. "You look like a Marian."
"Why can't we choose our own names?" Marian's smooth voice asked. "I want to be called Angel; it seems like such a graceful and lovely name."
"Sorry chick that name is taken by your leader, me…" Angel snapped with her hands folded over her chest. "And I will name you because when my ex-Flock named themselves and they picked out things like: the Gasman, Maximum, Fang, Nudge, and Iggy. I want basic names that are actual names."
She then pointed to the tall African male. He had a dark chocolate skin tone, bald head, and very muscular. He was taller than Iggy, who was 6'4.
"And what about him?" she pointed at the African kid.
"He doesn't have anything very magnificent about him, but he is stronger than the whole flock put together and can fly higher than anyone in your flock," he gestured to him. "If you don't like him we can destroy him and make another creation."
"No he's fine. Your name will be…James," she remembered that was Iggy's real name from when they met his parents. Angel kicked him to see what his reflexes would be, but he didn't budge. She looked at him and punched him in the nose with ever muscle she had in her body. "I think he's broken."
"I am not broken, you are just weak little one," he looked down and laughed at her.
Her eyes narrowed on him and she stuck her tongue out in defense to his crude comment. "I can tell you're the big mouth that says whatever."
"I guess you could say that," he smiled.
She walked up to the other girl who was about her height and had big brown eyes. "Hi," she waved. Her skin was pale and she had blond straight hair. She was the thinnest one and had brown with white freckled wings.
"She is a lot like you. She can communicate with fish, read people's minds, control them on what to do, and she has gills also. We made sure that she was your age so you could have someone that was like you," Dr. G-H smiled.
"Virginia. You look like one of the girls I knew in that school we went to Virginia. Except you have blond hair and she had light brown hair," Angel explained.
"I love the name," she smiled at Angel.
Then Angel went up to the twin boys that were standing next to each other. They both had black hair and were Asian. Their hair covered their eyes so you couldn't tell what color they were. They were both Max's height except the one was about two inches taller. "Twins, seriously?" she groaned.
"I'm sorry, but the School decided on it. If you want we'll cut one of their hair shorter and give the other fake glasses or something like that…" Dr. Gunther-Hagen explained. "Well anyways they have great navigation and track people, also they can shape shift into anything. And something that they do, which the lab had nothing to do with, is that they do everything in unison. Very strange."
"Your name will be William," she gestured to the shorter one. "And yours is Sam."
Angel turned back to Dr. Gunther-Hagen. "Do they still need to learn how to fly? If so then call Dylan in here," she ordered.
"They have gotten the basics down on flying, but Dylan will still be training them on how to fight in mid-air. But I have had another idea that is full proof. Would you like to hear it?"
Her eyes narrowed on him then she nodded. "What is it?" she groaned.
"Well Fang is all by himself and what if we sent another Flock after him, to 'help' him. We will still be sending Flyboys to attack them but this time it'll all be an act. He will be traveling with them and they will be leading him to the School, not here," he paused then looked at Angel.
"Why are they going to the School again? That is a waste of time," she yawned to show how bored she was getting.
"You know when they escape they always work together and make it out with each other's help, well if we split them up into different parts of the state or even country they will all die, it is perfect. What do you say?"
"As long as I get to kill Max and the flock the way I want to, right?" Angel asked again.
"Yes, and I have another idea, we could hook up TV's to all the places that the flock is split up at and they can all watch each other die one by one."
"Whatever," Angel rolled her eyes and walked back into the lab to check to see what the scientists were doing to Nudge and Total.
