Fang POV

After Max fell unconscious to Ari's hard paw to the temple, I released the fighting stance I was in because Max was to close to Ari and to far away from me to be sure that I could still rescue both of our butts out of this horrid mess. As soon as I was slightly less tense then before, three Erasers pounced on me and taped my mouth, wrists, and feet together, and then continued to bind my wings. I looked at Max and saw a crimson color slowly making its way down her beautiful face, streaking the dirt ridden splotches that covered her usual tan skin. She was already taped up and thrown over Ari's shoulder, and slightly adjusting myself so that I was looking over the two of them I saw some Erasers gang up on the employees with a murderous glint in their eyes, and before I could scream into the bindings covering my mouth, I felt what must have been a fist punch me, hard, and black dots danced in front of my vision as I gave into the darkness.

I woke up on strapped to a cold, metal chair with an itchy bag over my head. My hands were strapped onto armrests with Velcro, the same going for my ankles around the legs of the seat. The weird part about the chair was that there was a flat headrest that my head as strapped to, and I couldn't move my head to look through the slightly see through sack over my head.

I strained my super-hearing ears and could hear heart monitors and lab equipment beeping around the room, and about ten feet in front of me I heard the soft moan of a female I immediately recognized to be Max. I heard her jangling around in her chair, most likely the same one as the one I was sitting in, and started to whisper to me in a hushed and nervous voice.

" Fang," she croaked, her voice sounding rough and unused "Fang can you hear me? You awake over there?"

Before I could answer her or even give her a nod to let her know I was all ears, a door whooshed open and a cold breeze quickly following, dropping the scorching temperature in this wretched room. The sound of footsteps flooded my ears and I felt hands holding down my already constricted arms as numerous needles pierced my skin, and I let out a hiss of pain before the process was over.

Max heard the quiet hiss and whispered intensely, "Fang are you alr-", and she was cut off due to a loud sack in the face and I could barely see the same needles that were just in my own body enter hers, and she too let out a small sign of pain by gasping slightly as they entered her blood vessels.

Suddenly the sack was ripped off my head, and immediately Max and I made eye contact and we scoured each other for wounds and then back into each others eyes as we waited impatiently for whatever as going to happen next.

A short doctor walked into our line of sight and turned to me as he spoke, " Hello Fang, I am Dr. Sorrenino and I will testing your body as it goes through high stress emotionally, but not physically." during his little introduction, two doctors had been placing wires and suction cup things around my body in what seemed like a random order that made no sense to me but probably a lot to them.

"Today my guard, Michelson, will be putting our friend Max here though some extraordinary pain and there will be nothing you can do bout it. My team of doctors and scientists will be monitoring your condition to see how you handle situations where the people in your life get hurt because of you so we can develop an understanding on how to break you Fang, is that clear?" As he was talking he motioned to the men and woman in lab coats to my right and left, and a big burly man standing by the door cracking his knuckles with anticipation.

'Wow this guy talks almost as much as Nudge" I said in my mind, and I wondered how they were and praying that Iggy got them out safely, and I was also kind of hoping they would come recue us soon, because I did not know how much of this we could take. I zoned back into whatever Doctor Evil was saying as he out hi hands on Max's shoulders and I saw her tense up and saw a small flash of ear fear enter her eyes before she dismissed it as she looked into my dark brown ones.

Suddenly, Michelson stepped out of the rooms shadows, making his way towards Max with a shiny object in his hand until he made his way in between us and turned towards Max so that I couldn't see her face . As he turned, the object in his hand caught the light of a lone lamp above Michelson, and I realized with a shock that he had a blade in his hand. In a blink of an eye, he stabbed the blade downwards in a rapid succession springing blood, Max's blood, onto my black t-shirt and jeans. He walked behind her and undid one of the straps on her arm, and started to pull it into an uncomfortable position behind her back. Max tried to wiggle out of his hold but any attempt she made was silenced as he grabbed the knife and stuck it through her hand, the blade showing from both sides.

Max screamed into the tape that covered her mouth, small tears forming as Michelson popped her shoulder out of place and continued to do so with her left wing. I struggled frantically, I could hear machines whirring to life as I struggled to help Max and kill the man that threatened her, but I was held to tight and I could only watch as continued to make her suffer by punching and kicking her everywhere until it seemed a though her whole body was covered in bruises.

When I thought I couldn't take it anymore, Michelson let go of Max's limp form, redid her straps, and walked out of the room without a backwards glance. Dr. Sorrenino walked in front of me and bent down so that we were at eye level.

"I think that went excellent Fang, how about you?"

"Go to hell." I spoke with a cold venom that you could almost, and just for a little revenge I attempted to spit on him and successfully covered his face with my saliva and blood. The doctor patiently cleaned it off with a handkerchief he pulled from his pocket, gave me a wink, glanced at Max with a pitying look and walked casually out the door as if this was a regular thing for him, followed by the team of doctors and scientists without sparing one glance at the two of us.

I looked desperately at the one I loved, trying to make her look into my eyes so I could pass on the message to stay strong and that she needed to be okay, not just for me but for the kids as well. Max lazily looked into my eyes, and I knew that she wasn't really seeing me as I helplessly watched her eyes roll back into her head trying to escape from the pain I had unintentionally caused her.
