Chapter 14

Silent POV

Shadow charged at her clone. I couldn't tell them apart. This was bad. As everyone was distracted by the fight I slipped over to the cages and started opening them. Ian was the closest.

"Ian. 4 o'clock. My clone take him out" I ordered yanking him from the cage. He nodded and took off. I unlocked Bright's cage next.

"Silent. Make sure you unlock his to" She pointed at some blonde haired kid who looked our age. I nodded and went on to Zack's cage.

"Zack Up and away now if you can. Stay up high no matter what" I said. He nodded and took off. In a second he was 100 feet in the air circling above us. Leo's cage was next.

"Thanks Bro We oh ya one" He said patting my shoulder then took off to help the others. I opened the cage to the one blonde kid.

"Thanks." He said then went to help fight. Who was that guy? Why did they want me to help him? I would ask later. I took off into the air dive bombing several white coats.

The Fight was long and hard. I'll tell you it ended. It ended in My clone and Talia's clone on the ground knocked out. All that stood now was the real flock and two Shadows. Now all we had to do was figure out who was who. There were identical. Same clothes, Same scars, Same voice. Heck They even had the same twitch she has. Her right eye has twitched ever since she got shocked on that power line.

"Silent how are we suppose to tell them apart?" Leo asked looking from one Shadow to the other.

"Easy. We ask them questions" I said stepping forward, "OK Were gonna ask questions only the real shadow would know." They nodded. I looked back at the flock.

"When's my birthday?" Talia said stepping up by me.

"April 4th!" Both Shadows said at the same time. There good.

"Correct" I said crossing my arms, "How many minutes are the twins apart"

"Seven because it's Ian favorite number" Both of them said. "Even though Ian believes he's older its Leo who's the oldest twin"

"Damn. There good" Ian said laughing.

"Language Ian!" One Shadow snapped. All eyes turned on her. Shadow rarely cared about Ian's swearing. It was mainly Leo who she yelled at. Mostly because he usually went to far when he swore,

"Alright..." I turned towards the flock "I know how to find out who's the real Shadow..."

"How?" Leo asked.

"Just watch" I turned back to the Shadows and held my arms open, "Shadow come give me a hug" One Shadow easily walked forward wrapping her arms around me. The other one crossed her arms looking from me to the flock. She gave me a look that meant 'the flocks right there'

"Guys." I pointed at the Shadow that didn't hug me, "That's Shadow" I grabbed the one that hugged me and slammed her into the ground arms behind her back. The real Shadow came over giving out hugs.

"Good to know you guys can tell me from a clone" She joked giving Ian a hug. After I slammed the clone shadow into the dust I stood up.

"OK Let's get out of here before they send something after us" I said quickly. Everyone nodded.

"Wait. Silent take the others a go. I need to get something" Shadow said before taking off towards the school. I shrugged and told everyone to take off. Talia flew upwards followed by Bright and the Twins. I looked back before snapping open my wings and taking off upwards.

Shadow POV

I raced threw the halls of the school dodging erasers and whitecoats. I memorized my route so I wouldn't get lost. I finally found the room I was looking for and kicked the door open. The room was huge full of Cabinets. I quickly ran over to one and yanked it open. Files. Thousands of them. How was I suppose to find the ones I was looking for in all this!

After about 15 minutes of frustrating searching I found them. They were all together bound by a rubber band. I quickly grabbed them stuffing them under my shirt. I turned and darted out the door. I made a quick turn down the hall using the route I memorized.

I crashed threw the door and was air born in seconds. It took a few extra beats but I soared upward joining my flock. They were circling over head waiting for me to come out. There was another kid with them. On instinct I circled over between him and the flock.

Silent caught my movement and copied. It was almost like we were doing a birds war dance. Each of diving at him swerving at the last second. We did this on rare occasions when a large bird or something tried to fly with us. He began backing away from the flock til he was around 10 feet away.

"Shadow! Silent! Stop He's one of us!" Bright hollered. I angled my wings and flew up by her, Silent following after me.

"How can we trust him? His Minds on a block! For all we know he could be a spy" I said. She rolled her eyes.

"Zack trusts him! So you should to!" She countered. I turned to Zack who nodded. I sighed shaking my head.

"Fine he can come with us. One slip up and he's getting a tree branch to the head. Now let's go find a hotel or something Get you guys fixed up" I ordered flying ahead of them.
