Fang's POV

I crouched in my cage, frozen with terror, heart pumping with fear for Max. How could they take her away? No, nothing must happen to her. Without her, the Flock would be nothing. Without her, I would be nothing.

Suddenly, a scream rang out, penetrating the door of the room. Angel cried out in fear. That was Max's scream. I growled and gripped the bars of my cage, bending it ever so slightly. I gritted my teeth as rage flooded my veins, if anything happened to Max, I would probably lose control.

Iggy had stiffened and Nudge was cowering in her cage, muttering to herself, she seemed on the verge of tears. Gazzy was whimpering, but he tried to do it softly. Those assholes! What were they doing to Max? I couldn't stand it, the thought of Max in pain was tearing a hole in my heart.

The door was flung open and out of the corner of my eye, I saw Gazzy jump. An Eraser stepped in and threw an unconscious Max to the floor. Angel gasped and gripped the bars of her cage. I felt something lodge in the back of my throat and I bent the bars of my cage even more.

"Wait for her to wake up, then we can actually conduct the experiment. Stupid transfer, he injected her with a sedative using the wrong needle," I relaxed ever so slightly, they had only injected her with a sedative. Nothing else. The Flock visibly became less tense, "Release the others from their cages, perhaps they can wake her up. Their powers don't work in this room anyway." The whitecoat that had been giving out orders looked around, sighed and left the room.

The Eraser that had tossed Max in unlocked Angel's cage and moved on to Gazzy's cage. The two rushed to Max's side immediately. He went around unlocking cages and when he got to Iggy's cage, Ig sent a look in my direction, obviously torn between getting rid of one Eraser and making sure Max was okay.

"Max." I said quietly, she was our priority. Without her, we wouldn't be able to do anything. He heard and quickly moved to Max as soon as his cage was unlocked. When the Eraser reached my cage, I growled slightly and fought the urge to beat the lights out of this Eraser. I shot out of my cage and went straight to Max. Thankfully, the Eraser left quickly without standing guard.

"Max, Max." My voice was calm, barely disguising the urgency I felt, the fear, the love. I scanned her, there were a few bruises where she had struggled, my eyes found a pinprick surrounded by a huge bruise. Angel held Max's hand and was calling her name.

Iggy was grasping her other hand and had a mixture of relief and worry on his face. Involuntarily, my hand reached out and touched her face, my fingers feeling the warmth of her smooth skin.

"Max." Her name escaped my lips in a whisper. She stirred and blinked sleepily at us.

"Max!" Nudge exclaimed. Her mouth curved up in a small smile, then she swallowed and spoke.

"What happened? How come you're out of the cages?" She struggled to sit up and winced when she jostled her arm.

"Some new whitecoat injected you with a sedative instead. So they let us out because they thought that we could wake you up." I replied, unable to hide the slightest relief in my voice. She heard and smiled reassuringly at me, but I could tell by her eyes that she was shaken. I discreetly reached my hand out and squeezed her hand reassuringly.

I almost laughed when her eyes widened, but the situation prevented me from doing so. She shot a breathtaking smile at me and I could almost see her strength fill the room.

"Okay, guys. So here's the plan." Her eyes glinted with confidence that made me smile with relief.

Maximum Ride was back in the game.


Max's POV

"Okay, guys. So here's the plan. I sat up straight and gave a smug smile, feeling my strength slowly returning. I had let these disgusting pigs in whitecoats torture us and now, all I wanted was a good night's rest. It was time to get out of here.

"They only have a few Erasers, their advantage is sedatives. So the next time they open the door, we charge. The first thing to do is disarm them. Then we'll get out of here. We'll figure out how to get rid of this place later." I looked around me and each face I saw was one of determination. I smiled, I loved my Flock.

Iggy paused and the look on his face turned to one of concentration, "Someone's here." We all quickly assumed fighting positions near the door. Adrenaline flooded my veins and my heart pounded. My super human hearing picked up the code that was being pressed into the keypad outside the door. The door swung open and we leapt!

I launched myself at the nearest whitecoat, smashing the tranquilizer on the floor and knocking him out. I snarled as I wrestled with an Eraser, all around me I heard groans of whitcoats and erasers alike. As I finished my Eraser with a swift high kick to the head, I wrenched a tranquilizer from a whitecoat and stuck it into his neck. He crumpled without a sound.

I checked out the status of my Flock, Angel was holding her own against two Erasers by making them hit each other repeatedly, Nudge had used my example and was jabbing Erasers with a tranquilizer. Gazzy was speed punching an Eraser in the stomach while Iggy pulled something out from his pocket, he threw it into the chaos of erasers and whitecoats and dived for cover.

"Fire in the hole!" He yelled. I realized that Fang was being held up by a bunch of remaining Erasers. There wasn't any time left to help him, I sprinted over to him and turned his body so that the Erasers were our cover.

BOOM!

I looked up, saw that Iggy had only planted a mini bomb so that both whitecoats and Erasers were reduced to smithereens. My arms were still interlocked around Fang and when he tried to sit up, we both ended up falling down.

"Sorry." I muttered and untangled my arms from his. He gave a small warm smile that said, Thank you. I colored and quickly scrambled up to survey the damage.

"Report!" I shouted, trying not to choke on the dust.

"Here," Nudge coughed as she sat up, "Angel's here too." She continued as Angel poked her head out and grinned at me.

"Dude! That was awesome!" Gazzy jumped up and high fived Iggy whose sooty face contrasted his white teeth.

"Good job, guys." I praised even though I didn't really approve of Iggy using a bomb in a national monument, "Okay, since we can't do anything to destroy this place. The only thing we can do is smash everything and get out of here." Looks of comprehension dawned on the Flock's faces they grinned slowly.

"Okay, so go, wreck as much havoc as you can and be back here soon." I instructed and immediately, Gazzy bolted off.

I raced into a room and threw all the chemicals on the floor, smashing all the Velcro beds with a steel bar I had found. Looking at my watch, I froze and my heart stopped, dawn was just two minutes away.

The moment the sun came up, we would be visible when we sneaked out and we probably would be arrested or something. We had to get out of there now.

"Guys! We gotta go! Now!" I yelled as I ran to the staircase. My Flock appeared immediately and I rushed the younger set up with Iggy holding on to Gazzy. Making sure that Fang was right behind me, I sprinted up the stairs and burst out of the hole in the floor.

Thirty seconds to go… I looked at Fang and we pushed the tomb cover. God! The thing was stuck. Crap, not good.

"One more time!" I tried to keep my voice calm. This time, Iggy helped too. The tomb cover ground back into place.

Ten, nine, eight… We pounded up the stairs and headed for the exit.

Three, two, one. The sun burst out from behind the trees just as we exploded from the Taj Mahal.

"Go, go, go." I hissed as we darted away from the Taj Mahal.

"Hey! Stop! I have a gun! Stop!" A heavily Indian accented voice commanded. The sound of a gun reloading chilled me.

Crap. Now what?


Will they get shot? Or will they get arrested? No offence to Indians. :)

Thanks for being patient! Please review! I'm gonna try to update as soon as possible. :)
