/\/\ax's P.O.V

After I got Fang awake and out of the shower, we got dressed and went downstairs. I caught a glance at the time and saw that it was already 8:30pm, and Igg and the others still weren't back. In another hour it would be dark outside, worry built up inside of me.

"Fang, when is Iggy supposed to come back with the kids?" I asked.

"He said he'd be back before it would get dark." He replied.

"We should go look for them-" I was cut off by a phone ring.

It was Fang's cell, he took it out and saw that it was Iggy calling. He put it on speaker so I could hear too; I was shocked when I heard the sound of screaming.

"Let her go!" Iggy shouted

"Iggy what's going on?" Fang asked.

"Help, Nudge, Angel, Gazzy, and I are-" The call was disconnected.

I bolted out the door and rocketed into the sky with Fang behind me; we soured through the dusk and searched for Iggy and everyone else. We flew over the park, the same one I had come to after Fang proposed to me. Down below I didn't see the others, we landed and looked around. On the ground was a small blood puddle, then we saw tire tracks.

"Max wait!" Fang called when I followed the tracks.

"We can't wait we have to save them!" I snapped.

"Max, don't you think it could be a trap?" He suggested.

"Trap or not we have to get them back." I growled.

Fang remained silent; he gazed at me with his dark eyes. I knew he was right, if it wasn't a trap the tire tracks wouldn't have been here. "We have to be ultra-alert, and make sure we've got each other's backs." He finally spoke. I nodded as a response, and then we both dashed over the tracks that would lead us to the others. I was hoping they'd be alright, just until we'd get to them.

Iggy's P.O.V

"Get in there you!" Some big wolf guy snarled. I was slammed into a dog cage Angel, Nudge, and Gazzy were slammed into separate cages. I was glad Ella had been able to get away, when I saw them coming at us I told her to run. She protested but eventually caved in, the four of us put up a good fight. Gazzy and I were able to blow some of them up with some bombs we made; we got caught then were thrown into the back of a semi. When we got out we couldn't see anything, since we were blindfolded thank you very much. Our hands were tied behind our backs so we couldn't fight back; thankfully we were all in the same room. Along with fifty other experiment type things, who were both animals and people.

"Iggy…" Angel said teary eyed.

"Angel don't cry, Max and Fang will bust us out of here." I answered before she could say anything.

"Yeah but how are they going to find us, they have no clue where we are." Gazzy pointed out.

"They'll find us, they're both smart so I'm sure they'll pick up something." I told him, tying to be encourage-able.

"Do you think this is the place Max and Fang got their wings from?" Nudge asked.

"Most likely, guess you're going to get your wish of having wings." I replied.

Before anything else could be said some more wolf guys came in, along with some people in white lab coats. "These are not them, there only two not four you mongrel!" A man shouted at one werewolf-ish dudes'. He scowled then marched off, then Angel was taken out of her cage thing and was dragged off.

"Let go of her!" I shouted trying to break out.

"Perhaps you would like to go first then?" He suggested walking over to my prison.

He threw Angel back into her cage then grabbed me out of mine, dragging me off to god knows where and god knows what's gonna happen to me. But at least I get to be first, that way Angel, Gazzy, and Nudge won't be.

Fang's P.O.V

Max and I continued to follow the tracks, I saw a grey blur shoot past us. "Max look out!" I shouted when I saw it move in her direction. Before it could swipe her I lunged forward, grabbed Max, and shot up in the air. I got the before it could swipe her part wrong, it was only a minor clawing, but Max's left side had three claw marks racked across it.

"Damn it, that hurt." She grumbled holding her side as I began to bleed.

"Max you gonna be okay?" I asked clearly worried.

"Right after I kick his butt, yeah I'll be fine." She answered.

Then she saw the enemy, or enemies. More of the wolf guys appeared, now increasing their numbers to fifteen or twenty. "What the hell are those things?" She asked. I had no idea, they looked like werewolves but totally different. Yeah they stood on twos, they had fur, and they had all the other werewolf features. Though these guys came with tails…and guns for that matter. They shot at me as I dove and looped, one of them managed to clip my left wing. I started losing altitude at a fast rate, I pushed Max into my chest and flipped over I braced for impact. I probably got smashed a foot into the ground; Max was unharmed save her side. Before she could question me on my actions I stood and dragged her along, we bolted into the tree away from the approaching enemies.

"What the hell are those things?" Max asked again.

"Don't know, werewolves maybe?" I replied.

"Yeah, because a group of medieval monsters somehow winded up in the 21 century." She grumbled logically.

Suddenly one of them jumped in front of us, it snarled then slashed Max's already wounded side. She winced in pain and stumbled backwards; I grabbed her and went to fly again. A furry hand grabbed the bone of my wing and threw both me and Max aside, I let go of Max and kicked and punch each of them. Then another male grabbed me by the back of the neck, I was thrown back and slammed into a tree. I staggered up and went to attack him, then I heard Max cry out. I spun around and saw she was pinned on the ground being chocked, her arms and legs flailed as she tried to get free. "Get your hands off her!" I snarled punching him square in the snout. He grabbed hold of me and we were in a brawl, I was choking him then he was choking me. I kneed him in the gut I watched as he spat out, while he was of guard I punched him in the eye. He howled in pain and held his eye as he rolled on the grassy earth, I smirked and was about to hit him again. I checked to see how Max was doing, three of the wolf guys laid unconscious behind her as she beat the crap out of one. I was caught off guard and was grabbed by the wings, I felt a pair of fur covered hands begin to snap the bone.

I kicked him in the knee then shot into the air, I dove down and connected my foot to his face. He recoiled a bit then fired his gun, the bullet grazed my cheek. I kicked him on the top of the head but it didn't affect him, then he shot again. This time hitting me in the wing, I fell from the sky like a meteor. I was only five feet off the ground but the impact still hurt like hell, especially since I landed on my back. Then I felt a boot slam into my chest, and I swear I heard a rib break. Then a swarm of them came at me, they pinned me to the ground. I shot up till I eventually had five wolf guys holding me down; they started stomping on my wings. Purposely trying to break them, I heard a series of cracks knowing that my wings were breaking.

/\/\ax's P.O.V

"Stop it get away from him!" I screamed. I kicked and struggled against my captors, them being three wolf guys. I broke away from them a few times, but only found myself getting recaptured. "Fang!" I shouted when I heard the series of bone cracking. I knew they were trying to break his wings, and I knew I would be next. I was on savage mode now, I slammed my foot on top of my captor's foot. He grabbed his foot and started hopping up and down, when the others came at me I kicked them somewhere no guy wants to be kicked. Especially not by a genetically altered teenage-bird-kid whose kick is stronger than a horses, as they sank to the ground I rushed towards Fang.

"I said get the hell away from him!" I snapped chopping two of them in the neck. They fell paralyzed while the other two came at me, Fang struggled to get free but he was locked in an iron grip. I saw the claw and bit marks on his exposed skin; I looked into his eyes and saw that they were telling me to run. "I'm…not…leaving…you…behind!" I protested in between punches. He didn't say anything, via mouth or eyes. It was down to me and the werewolf-ish punks holding Fang, I froze in my tracks when one of them pressed a gun against Fang's head.

"Come any closer and he gets shot." The armed on warned.

"Max run, don't worry about me just get out of here!" Fang ordered.

"Shut up bird boy!" One of them growled kicking Fang in the rib.

"Hurt him again and I'll kill you!" I snapped angrily.

"Get out of here!" Fang ordered again, he was kicked again.

"Not a chance, I'm not leaving you here to die." I told him.

I snapped out my wings and punched the one holding the gun to Fang's head, all before he had a chance to pull the trigger. I had my legs wrapped around his waist as I punched him in the face, then I grabbed the sides of his head. "I told you hurt him again and I'll kill you." I reminded. I did something I didn't want to do but it had to be done, I snapped his neck. His eyes became cold and lifeless as he hit the ground; I looked at his body and watched the blood stream into the grass. I was then grabbed and had a cloth placed over my mouth, it reeked of nitrous oxide (A.K.A knock out gas). My vision went black, but I felt my body get thrown into a truck or a semi.

The semi I was in hit a bump causing me to slam against the metal floor, I winced and sat up. Only to find my hands bound behind my back, and the entire left bottom side of my shirt completely soaked in blood. My heart went stone cold when I saw Fang on the other side of the metal rectangle; I shuffled over to him and saw his eyes were closed. He wasn't breathing, which made my blood go cold. Was he dead? Oh god, please don't let him be dead. "Fang wake up!" I yelled. No response, not even a breath. I felt my throat close and tears form in my eyes, I nudged him with my knee but he still did nothing. His body moved then fell back into place after my knee hit it. "Fang…" I said in a broken, tearful voice. "Fang, hey wake up." I nudged his face with mine, hoping he'd wake up.

"Fang, you stupid jerk! If you die on me know I swear I'll kill you, just open your eyes, breath, do something…please." I sobbed against his cheek. He still did nothing; I couldn't help but cry like a baby. I rarely cried, but when I did it was over something really important. I fell on my hurt side, ignoring the pain I curled up against his chest. Crying and begging for him to wake up, after twelve minutes I heard a heartbeat in my ear. I shot up and looked into Fang's mangled face, he had dirt all over his face, a shallow claw mark, and bullet wound on his right cheek. I saw his eyelids flutter, then he slowly, and I could tell painfully, opened his eyes.

"Max?" He breathed weakly.

"Fang, thank god, I thought you were dead." I sobbed putting my head on his unharmed cheek.

"I won't…leave you…I promised that…remember?" He gasped.

"Shh, don't try to talk; you don't want to waste all your energy." I told him.

"Lay…next to me?" He requested.

"If you won't die on me." I replied.

"I won't." He said in a weaker voice.

I lay against him, I felt him wince because of his wounds. I knew Fang was strong, I knew that even now he was keeping his pain hidden from me. I felt his pain though; I could feel it in his muscles as I lay against his chest. I felt searing pain in my side; I felt the cold metal surface against my skin begin to coat with blood. I sat up and backed away from him, I didn't to get more blood on him than he already had. His dark eyes opened half way, they landed on me.

Fang's P.O.V

I felt Max push away from me, I weakly opened my eyes but only got them to open half way. My vision was cloudy upon opening them, I was really weak from blood loss but I refused to show it. I saw a blurry version of Max backing away from me, wincing a bit as she got further.

"Wassamatter?" I asked, really weak this time seeing as how I jumbled the words together.

"It's nothing. Just rest and don't try to speak." She answered.

I weakly pushed myself up, and then I felt my knee touch something warm. I looked down and saw a small pool of blood, there was a trail that led back to Max. Then I saw her bleeding side, her entire lower left side was crimson red. I weakly moved over to her, I wanted to see how bad the wound was. I tried to break my hands free from the ropes, I saw Max's wrist were tied in the same way.

"Max turn around, I got an idea." I instructed.

"What do you mean?" She asked.

"I'll chew the ropes off you, and then you can untie me." I explained.

"Oh, okay." She said turning around.

I bit down on the ropes holding Max's wrist together, once I got them off of her she went to untie me. I saw the pain on her face, and I saw how red and puffy her eyes were. Once I was loos I turned to her, I laid her down and went to expect her wound. I lifted her shirt up and gazed at the wound, three claw marks ranked from her side to her mid stomach. The wound didn't appear to be too deep, but I could tell it had bled a lot. I didn't have anything I could use to wrap her wound with, or press against it to keep the blood from spilling out of her body. I put my arm around her shoulder and lifted her into a sitting position, she bled more and scooted away from me. I opened my arms to her, not caring if she was bloody. Max crawled over into my arms, she laid her head on my chest and held her bleeding side. She was shaking, she had lost so much blood, and she was shaking and tightening her bloody hand over her wound.

"We're going to die here Fang." She said shakily.

"Everything's going to be fine Max; we'll find everyone else and get your wound tended to." I assured as I pushed her head into my chest.

"What if we don't make it out this time?" She asked.

"There is no 'if' we WILL make it out, I promise." I told her.

"Why don't we break out then?" She wondered.

"We might as well let them take us to Iggy and the others, after we get them we'll bust out." I assured.

She fell silent after that was said; I stroked her hair and laid my cheek on her head. Continually telling her it was going to be alright, I was leaned against the back of the fern green metal holding Max in my arms. The semi came to a crashing stop, and then the doors were open. A group of wolf-men got into the vehicle; Max and I were both too weak from blood loss to fight back.

We struggled against our captors, but that was all we could do. We were dragged into a foam colored building, then down a long windy hallway and into a much larger room. Cages were scattered around the room, most of them empty all but three. Nudge, Angel and Gazzy occupied the cages.

"Mongrel, you weren't supposed to nearly kill them!" A man in a lab coat roared.

"They resisted captor." The wolf explained.

"Get them to the lab, switch subject seventeen with subject eleven." The man grumbled walking off.

We were leased to a vet looking room, only the examination table had hand, feet, and neck locks on them. As we entered we passed by a fish like experiment, she had a human shape but was covered in scales. She was dressed in a white-ish grey dress that came to down mid-thigh, her eyes opened wide and she tilted her head at us.

I looked away from her, shouting and yelling redirected my attention. Max gasped in shock, we both saw a familiar strawberry-blond haired guy. It was Iggy, he was fighting against the people around him, and his eyes were wrapped in white bandages. Iggy was then injected with something that put him in a sleeping state; he was then dragged out of the room.

"What did they do to him?" Max asked when we were alone.

"I don't know, we'll ask him when we bust out." I replied.

"Ma-ax, F-Fan-ng?" The fish experiment asked.

We looked at her in confusion; did we know her or something? "It's m-me...Zira." She said after seeing our confusion. We were both jaw dropped "Zira?!" We both thought.
