The Egg chapter 11
Shaking Alfred chatters nervously as they enter a room in the ship that was about five by six in length. The teeth around his neck release and he drops onto a mattress like object. Going to the corner Alfred looks to the opened door, but Britain sits in front of it. The big cats tail taps the wood, green eyes watching the terrified eagle.
"Stop cowering." Britain says making the eagle shrink further back.
Sighing the cat stands up and shuts the door, "I'm not going to hurt you."
Alfred clicks his beak and shuffles, Britain watches unimpressed.
"Are you mute?"
Alfred glares at the big cat and straightens, his feathers still puffed out and trembling
"I can talk."
"Speak." Britain corrected.
Alfred clicks his beak and turns it away.
"I see being around that annoyance has taught you bad manners."
"At least he let me see the world."
"You were better off in the egg."
"That isn't your choice to make."
"Of course it was, if it wasn't for me you wouldn't have came to being."
"You took me from my people! You left them alone and without their identity." Alfred hisses, his wings spreading.
"You don't understand." Britain says growling warningly.
"I don't want to understand." Alfred says pumping his wings almost hitting Britain with them, the door opening from the force.
Turning his head at the sudden loss of the presence of the door Britain looks at the opened door and using the chance Alfred bolts. Almost hitting the lions head Alfred lands on the hall and hops for the stairs seeing the light. Britain follows and pins Alfred down with a low roar. Crying out Alfred struggles fighting to get free. Britain keeps him pinned but another cry makes him look up and he sees a black form before it slams into him. Roaring in pain Britain swats at Gilbert who continues to hold on, getting off the ground Alfred looks at his mentor before going up the stairs. Once he reached the top he looks back and sees Gilbert letting go and flies up the stairs.
"Fly!" he orders taking off into the sky.
Looking back Alfred see's Britain coming up the stairs, scared Alfred takes off feeling the claws take a hold of some of his feathers before he is free. Flying higher and higher into the sky. The roar of anger far below makes him tremble in fear and sadness. Gilbert quickly flies by his side,
"We need to talk."
Alfred swallows and looks down knowing he is in trouble.
