A.N- Sorry guys, I'm just really lazy. This update is for all my reviewers, I think I got more reviews for this chapter than any other. This is especially for girlygamer77 since I was actually going to wait another day until I wrote it all, but then I saw your review and it made me smile haha.
Losing Control
(Still April 10th)
Fang POV
We waited outside of the Itex facility in New Jersey for what seemed like forever. As we waited, Jake communicated with our spy inside. I'm pretty sure her name was Zaila. Cool name, in my opinion.
Zaila was supposed to tell Max to be ready and then get in touch with Kate as well. All we were waiting for now, was her signal.
Zaila was apparently the most powerful mind reader that Itex had ever created, and in doing so they created their worst enemy as well. Jake told us that from a very young age she hated Itex and what they were doing. She and Jake had actually become friends from him being her care taker and monitor, until her rank was changed to a white coat herself (which they only did to very 'trustworthy' experiments). She's been able to block her actual thoughts from a small age and replace them with fake ones. This made her be able to gain their trust, and eventually they stopped monitoring her thoughts all together.
Jake told us all of this, as we made our way here, so we would be able to know at least some of Zaila's power. I couldn't help but think that he was leaving something out. It might just be my paranoia though.
We saw white coats walk by the windows in the building every once in a while. Some were walking in pairs and conversing with each other, some had experiments walking with them, some just walked along by themselves, looking all serious about whatever they were doing.
They had Max in there, along with Kate and who knows how many others that they'd abducted or created. They made me sick. I just wanted to beat the crap out of them right here and right now.
"Calm down." Dylan told me calmly.
I turned to him and then back to look at the building. Whatever.
He was kind of right though, I should probably save it for when we're actually fighting.
We were hiding behind some bushes a few yards away from the tree line that surrounded the place. Dylan and I were crouching behind the bush, looking in the windows, while the rest of our group was behind us, talking quietly amongst themselves. I listened what they said, but still kept my eyes glued to the windows.
We'd brought the whole Flock with us (that includes my gang) except for Holden and Star. The Voice, however, had all stayed except for Jake who would guide us. Holden and Star were supposed to guard the Voice's place in case anyone attacked them.
"It's time." I hear Jake whisper behind me. Good, I was starting to get impatient.
A few seconds later…
"AHH!" I yell as the door falls to the ground, sending some dust to all sides.
"Sound the alarms, someone's attacking!" A white coat yells as he runs down the hall, flailing his arms all about. I almost laughed.
Dylan rolls his eyes at me, "You know, I don't think that door was locked. I think she opened it for us."
"Way to make an entrance, Fang." I hear a guy say beside the door hole.
I whip my head to face the voice. I meet a pair of cold, white eyes: Xavier. I almost growl, but stop myself deciding it'd be a little odd. "Where's Max?" I roar.
"Oh, I wouldn't be worried about our little Maxie. She's fine, having a blast actually; now that she's without you." He tells me with that creepy smile of his.
"She's not ours, she's mine!" I shout and run for him.
"Little possessive, are we?" I hear Dylan snicker, before I hit Xavier's face with an angry fist.
I guess Xavier wasn't expecting me to actually have the nerve to hit him because he took it head on, or nose on should I say. He staggered backward as I gave Dylan a 'don't fuck with me' glare (A.N. Phahaha, I almost didn't add the 'with' part. That would have made it awkward!") When I looked back at Xavier, he was on the floor. He had one of his hand on the floor, trying to push himself up with it, and the other to his nose which was gushing blood down his face and in his clean, white shirt. "You'll regret that." He warns me, as he finally gets to his feet.
"I doubt it." I sneer, walking closer to him.
"I could kill you right now, if I wanted to." He tells me, spitting some blood on the white tiled floor.
"Then why don't you, huh?" I ask casually.
He smiles, whipping away the blood from his top lip. "I want to have a little fun with you first." (A.N- No homo. God everything sounds sexual to me now after the 'don't fuck me' mistake.)
"Fang, we have to keep going. Can you hold him off by yourself?" Nudge asks quickly, as everyone starts to run down the hall, following Jake's lead.
"Yeah, I'll be fine. Go on, go get Max!" I tell her as Xavier charges for me.
She nods and runs after everyone. I turn back to Xavier, right before he punches me. I turn my head to the side, though, making him miss. Then I put my hands on the floor to do a cartwheel, and kick his jaw to the side; making him hit the wall. "Hmm, you're right. This is fun." I say with a smirk.
He had hit the wall with enough force to leave a dent, making him close his eyes and hunch his head in pain as he slid down to the floor. He started to laugh like one of those crazy people in movies. He lifted his head and opened his eyes to look at me. All of a sudden, he stopped laughing. He got up and walked to me. I didn't know what he was doing, but I knew his power and knew I had to try to not look him in the eye. It's hard to know what people will do without looking them in the eye though. "What's wrong, Fang?" He asks me in fake innocence. "Are you getting scared?"
I didn't bother to answer him. I wasn't scared of him and he knew it. I just don't like to be the one to start fights. Even though I technically was the one to throw the first punch, but that was just because I got mad. Now I was calmer and didn't want to go walking in to the trap I know he had for me.
I was looking into the window behind him, that way I could see what he was doing, but not look at his eyes. He was slowly making his way to me, until someone appeared behind me. I stopped and turned back to the person who was closer to me. It was a little girl, younger than us; twelve, maybe. She had light brown hair in two braids, going to her waist.
What was I going to do? I didn't want to fight a little girl. She didn't give me time to think though. She bared her teeth at me, hissing, and showing me her top two, sharp canines. They were like fricken vampire fangs! Then she held her palm out to me and shot something white out that spread apart in mid air. What was she, Spidergirl?
I tried to get out of the way, but it was too close to the ground to duck from, and too big to step to the side of. All I could do was run back for about two seconds until it got me. I ended up face down on the floor with what looked to be a giant spider web blanketed over me. It was super strong and sticky, so when I tried to get it off, it only tangled me more. I struggled for a moment until I saw a shadow come over me.
I looked up to see Xavier's white eyes. Crap, I forgot! I looked away quickly, choosing to focus on his hair instead. It was greasier than Max's… "Look at me, God Damn it!" He screams at me and reaches in the web to grab my hair. It's times like these that I wish I had a buzz cut. He pulls a huge chunk of my front hair, including all of my bangs, up in one hand and makes me face him. I still resist, not caring that all my hair was getting ripped from my scalp (A.N- I know what this feels like. Not so nice…) and look to the side. "Don't make this harder than it needs to be, Fang. I'll get you eventually." He orders, still pulling my head up by my hair and moving his head around to try to get me to look into his eyes. "Ah, there we go!" He says, as I feel like I lost control. Shit! "Now, the fun really begins. I'll let you be able to think, that way it'll be even more fun. For me, that is" He tells me.
Crap, Crap, Crap!
Q.O.T.U- What do you think Xavier will do to Fang?
Love,
