Chapter 11

I watched angrily and, I'll admit, fearfully as one by one erasers took my flock away from me until finally they took me. They kept me in my crate, as they did with the others, probably a smart idea since I'd sure as hell put up a fight. I tried to memorize my surroundings, but with everything being white, land marks were near impossible so I just gave up on that as they lead me through the seemingly endless halls.

Finally we reached a door and they stopped and one of the erasers pulled out a key card and zipped it through this thing next to the door. There was this loud, obnoxious sound that followed and a light above the door turned green and the eraser opened the door and threw in my crate which, I must say, was not a pleasant tumble.

Immediately after hearing the door close there was a series of light clicking sounds and my crate door opened. I stiffly crawled out and saw that the rest of my flock had just now been allowed out also. I guess that makes sense. If they put us all in one at a time and let us out the second we were in the room then we'd rush the door when they came to let the next person in. Damn, I don't think I like the fact that they've suddenly gained common sense!

"Report!" I yelled as I stood and stretched.

"Fine." I heard Jack mutter unhappily. God, he's such a pessimist!

"I'm not okay Max! I am soooo not okay I mean god I'm hungry and these clothes are just…they're….ahhhh!" Nudge cried angrily. She's unhappy because we were given these dull blue hospital like clothes to wear. Not like opened in the back kind but something sorta like what nurses wear. All in all though I'd say she's okay.

"I'm alright." Aidin and Tyler said at the same time.

"Fine over here." Iggy called.

"Max." Angel's voice quivered. I reared in her direction the moment I sensed the distress in her tone. "Gazzy…he's not here."

I looked around franticly and sure enough he was nowhere to be seen. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit!

"What the hell have you done with him?! And with Fang too!?" I shouted knowing full well they were listening in.

As if on cue, which let's think about it, probably was, the wall opposite of the door switched from white to transparent, like a glass wall more or less. When we looked through the wall we saw this huge room, white just like this one, but like I said it was HUGE!

On further inspection I noticed Fang, bruised as he was, sitting in one corner with a thin collar around his neck and a…leash, I hate saying that like he's some kinda dog, but essentially that's what it was, that was connected to the wall giving him about six feet movement.

He turned his head and stared at us. A shiver was sent down my spine as I stared right into his lifeless eyes. The thought of how they became that way made my stomach do flip flops.

I didn't understand though. Where was Gazzy?

As soon as I thought that, a door opened inside the big room and two erasers and Dr. Sob walked in. The erasers were carrying a defiant Gazzy. The gears in my head were still not clicking the pieces together though.

"Shit." Jack said under his breathe.

I whirled around knowing that he knew what was going on! "What? Why shit?" I asked impatiently.

He looked at me with a mix of pity and uncertainty to if he really wanted to be the one to drop the bomb or not.

"Tell me." I demanded coolly even though on the inside I was dreading the answer.

"He's…He's going to have Fang fight Gazzy." He said slowly and hesitantly.

I could only stand there with my mouth open in shock. You'd think after all the shit the school has pulled I wouldn't be shocked anymore but you just never get used to the horrors!

"Fang wouldn't!" Nudge cried out. "He's a part of the flock!"

We all looked at her like we wished what she was saying were the case.

"Nudge," Jack began. "He can't really help it. He's been conditioned so he has no feelings. He got in big trouble for showing the slightest by staying loyal to you guys and he got in a shit load of trouble for that. His mind isn't gonna let his body take another beating like that." He tried to explain the best he could.

Angel and Nudge started crying. Iggy held them while I started pacing in a fury. "Stop it!" I yelled at the top of my lungs looking out the glass. Apparently is was soundproof, but it seemed that Dr. Sob had an earpiece that heard what was being said in the room because he looked at me and ticked his finger back and forth at me mockingly.

Dr. Sob started to talk to Fang and I watched sadly as Fang's gaze reverted to the floor and his hands shook in anger or sadness I don't know. Dr. Sob didn't like this though and one of the erasers stepped forward, having handed Gazzy to the other eraser, and raked his claws against Fang's face. His reaction was nothing more than a tiny wince as blood ran down his face at a quick pace.

Dr. Sob spoke something again and Fang looked up at him. Dr. Sob kneeled down right in front of Fang and pulled some kind of remote thing from his pocket and showed it to Fang and then saying something else. He pushed a button on it and the next thing I know Fang is, sadly what I assume, howling in pain and crumpling to the ground in the fetal position. He then pressed another button and Fang stopped writhing in pain and slowing and, what I assumed, painfully sat up. Dr. Sob spoke on for a little longer and then went to the door and exited.

Not but about three seconds later did the erasers through Gazzy to the floor and beeline for the door and exiting it to.

A squeak came over the speakers in our room and then a voice accompanied it. "Hello Max." Dr. Sob's voice, what a surprise. "I thought, before you tried to break out, that you'd like to know that the glass in impenetrable. Try if you like, but you'll have no results. I thought you'd like to see my sons true potential, without wrath, by using him against you. Isn't that great?"

After a pause I said, "Go to hell." In the most malicious voice ever.

"Probably!" He chuckled madly. "Be that as it may though it's not going to change the death of you're precious little friend." And with that last twisted remark he cut off the speaker and we all turned our attention back to the horror that was to unfold.

The leash connecting Fang to the wall was suddenly unhooked and Fang stood up. Gazzy ran towards the glass that had us separated and pounded on it desperately, tears streaming down his innocent face. I rushed to the glass feeling helpless and angry for that very reason.

Fang walked towards the glass and grabbed a hysterical Gazzy and was just getting ready to end it all in one move, but before he could the speakers came on again. Dr. Sob had it in both rooms, obviously wanting us all to hear it.

"Slowly F695. I want them to see what cruelty you're capable of." Dr. Sob said gleefully.

Fang hesitated in continuing and all of a sudden a red light flared on his collar he released Gazzy as he once again flew to the ground in pain. It ceased after about a minute. After that, Fang struggled to stand quickly before he got in trouble again. Once he regained his balance he grabbed Gazzy, who hadn't moved from where Fang had dropped him probably due to fear, and was socked in the stomach. The pain on Gazzy's face had me on my knees in tears. Fang got in some more hits before Gazzy was crying hysterically. Fang then did something I didn't expect. He looked over at us. He saw me on the ground. Angel banging on the glass frantically. Iggy holding distraught Nudge and Aidin. Jack holding a Tyler as she looked away from the whole mess and shook.

Then he did something that, despite what he was doing, broke my heart. He released Gazzy and stepped back. As expected though, his collar went into action and he buckled in pain. But when the collar stopped he didn't move. He just lay there. The collar went off again, but when it went off nothing in Fang changed. This resulted in a very furious Dr. Sob to enter the room.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?!" He shouted as he quickly approached Fang. For some reason we were able to hear what he was saying. He must not have turned off his speaker.

By now the whole flock had stopped crying, shouting, and whatever else to stare in awe at what was happening. Even Gazzy had stopped crying to stare horror struck.

"You think his life is worth saving do you? Well just because you won't finish him off doesn't mean he's going to live!" He shouted as he delivered a swift kick to Fang's head making it swing back and blood spew.

"FOUR!" Dr. Sob called!

Four erasers rushed into the room.

"Kill the boy." He ordered coldly and calmly never taking his eyes off of Fang.

Grins spread across the eraser's faces as the approached Gazzy who started to get up in an attempt to run.

God this was all getting really unbelievably painful to watch.

Just as an eraser lunged at Gazzy, Fang seemed to materialize out of thin air and appear in front of Gazzy. Fang side kicked the eraser and it went flying. I kid you not, I mean he went an unimaginable amount of feet before he slid and hit the wall.

"How…" Dr. Sob stuttered. "How is this possible!? I gave you the shot! You shouldn't be able to come out!" He shouted.

Fang's back was to us so I couldn't see his face, but I'd bet anything his eyes were glowing a blood red!

The other eraser's hesitated in attacking but decided to go ahead anyway. They ended with the same fate as the others. Gee who would have guessed. Idiots.

Dr. Sob pressed the button on his little remote again and Fang fell to his knees but that only seemed to add to his anger and he quickly lunged at the Dr. and crushed the remote with his hands. The collar instantly turned off. Fang graded Dr. Sob by the neck and leaned in close. Obviously relishing in his fearful cries. We could hear both the Dr.'s cries and Fang's growls through the speaker.

Fang threw Dr. Sob against a wall and a crunch was able to be heard through the speaker before he fell to the ground lifeless.

Wrath must have completely taken over though because then Fang turned and looked at Gazzy with rage and blood lust. Gazzy backed up against the glass and dodged just as Fang brought his fist back and into the glass wall. It burst into a million pieces as the flock put their arms up to shield themselves from the glass.

Impenetrable my ass!

I looked up to see Fang standing right in front of me. His breathing was fast and chaotic. That I expected. I mean he was being controlled by anger alone. What surprised me were the tears streaming rapidly down his rage filled features.

I didn't have anymore time to think when Fang reared his fist back. I reflexively did the same and before our fists met each others faces something happened. I felt…happy, light, fluffy, almost a natural high, whatever you wanna call it…it was magical. A red light illuminated from Fang who looked like he had just been hit with enlightenment.

Slowly the glow faded and so did Fang's crimson eyes. He fell to his hands and knees and didn't seem to notice as glass gouged their way inside of his broken flesh. I instantly felt a strong emotion rush through me that I have never, in my whole life, felt before. I rushed to him and held him, not caring that it was cutting up my own knees.

Tears rolled down my cheeks as my own shirt became damp with Fang's silent ones. I wanted so badly for him to stop hurting, for everything that had ever happened to him to just wash from his memory so he wouldn't have to bear those scars. What was this emotion, this feeling? Was this…love?
