Prisoner- Chapter 2

"Where are we?" I asked looking around.

"It's an abandoned house in the middle of nowhere. I always came here when I needed to get away from my father and his obsession with you and the rest of your flock." Ari said pulling open the front door.

"Like you have any room to talk about obsessions." I said with a little chuckle. I could tell Ari wanted to hurt me, his grip tightened on my wrists.

"This is your room, there's no possible way out, so don't try to escape. The door locks from the outside and there are no windows. If you need to use the restroom, there's a bathroom in there also. If you're hungry or just want to talk, pound three times on the door." He said shoving me in the room, staying in the doorway. "Got it?"

I didn't answer, instead I just turned and laid down on the bed.

"I'll take that as a yes. Remember, pound three times." He said leaving the room, locking the door behind him.

"Great," I said out loud. "No way out, we'll see about that." I began to search the room.


"What do we do now?" Nudge asked looking at Fang.

"We go find Max." He replied pushing off from the ground and higher into the air wish a few hard down strokes.

"How? We have no idea where Ari would take her?" Iggy asked flying next to him.

"We go back to Itex, find Jeb." Fang announced, seeing the three younger kids flying behind him and Iggy while they talked.

"What if he's not there anymore?" Iggy asked. He was scared. "And how can we be sure Jeb would know where Ari would take her?"

"We don't Iggy, but it's our best shot." Fang said slowly losing his patience. "And if Jeb isn't at Itex, then we go to the School. Max would never leave one of us behind, so we're not about to do that to her."

"I agree with Fang." Angel said trying to sound firm.

"Me too." Gazzy said next to her. Nudge and Iggy were both nodding.

"Ok, first stop, Itex." Fang said fastening the pace of flight. The others sped up with him.


"Did he tell you where he was taking her?" Jeb asked the erasers in front of him.

"No, he mentioned the place was abandoned and he'd been there a few times alone." The eraser growled before morphing into a human form.

Jeb walked down the white hallway, "I didn't think you had it in you, Ari." He said to himself. He walked into a door to his left. There was a computer in there with mounds of files on the desk. Jeb entered the password and clicked into a program called 'locator.'

There was a list of subject numbers. He clicked the search button, a window popped up.

He entered 'T10965jnk' that was Max. A green dot popped up about six miles from the School.

"Gotcha." He whispered looking at the dot. He clicked the search button again and entered 'R74215dxs' that was Fang. Five green dots appeared, one was labeled as Fang's cod, the other four were the rest of the flock, minus Max. They were right outside the building. It was time to go talk to them. He walked out the door and down the hallway to the main door. He pulled down a lever and the double doors slowly slid open. To reveal five familiar figures landing in front of him.

"Hello Fang."

"Where'd he take her?" He asked walking up to Jeb.

"Your guess is as good as mine." Jeb replied crossing his arms.

"Angel, what are you getting?" Fang asked looking down at the young girl.

"Nothing." She said shaking her head. "I'm sorry…"

"It's ok." He said as Iggy pulled her into a hug and stroked her long blond curls. He looked back at Jeb. "I know you can track us somehow. How else would you have been able to find us so easily?"

"We lost track of her. She's no longer on our radar." Jeb lied crossing his arms across his chest.

"He's lying." Angel said pulling away from Iggy.

"Are you sure?" Iggy asked intensely.

"Yes." She said nodding.

Fang pushed Jeb against the brick building, "Where?" he snarled.

Jeb swallowed hard, "come with me." He said.

AN: Hope you liked it!
