Chapter four
They took Fang when Max was sleeping, so he never got to tell her goodbye.
They put his cage on a gurney. Where were they taking him? For another test? Then the whitecoat stopped the cart, and said quietly, "You are slated for extermination, so I'm going to let you free. None of the stuff here is humane, but I'm trying to do something good for a change. I am like Angel- I can read and control minds. I'll make the scientist think that you 'died' early, and I will try to tell the flock the truth," she paused and walked some more, then stopped at a metal door. Continuing, she said, "Now, we have to hurry: we're going to a dumpster so that I may throw away some deformed cages. Then, you must fly. Go were you have to go. Do this quietly. Got it?"
Fang nodded, then mumbled, "Why are you doing this?"
"Because it's the right thing to do. And because I can. Now, come on." They were outside by now. She bent down and unlatched Fang's cage. "Go, fly!"
Fang took a running leap, threw out his wings, and burst into the sky.
