Okay, I got some questions asked about the last chapter of this. So, here's the answers!

Flockgirl: Dreamer is the only one who is 2% cat. The rest are 2% avian. And about Emerald and Chase…It's kinda like that, but a bit different.

Apart from that, I've got nothing interesting to say (apart from thanks to my fabby reviewers! Love you lots!). I know, you're shocked. Okay, disclaimers.

Disclaimer: I don't own Maximum Ride (Duh)

Claimer: I own the plot and my Own Characters.

I felt like I had only closed my eyes when the door flew open, sending a cold draft in that woke all of us up. I blinked, still half asleep. It was still night, well, dark, which was weird. They usually let us sleep when it's dark. There were two whitecoats, arguing. I hoped they killed each other.

"I don't see why we can't just send Erasers." A female whitecoat with glasses and black hair said.

"They've beaten Erasers once, they can do it again."

"Yes, but I don't see the point of creating six new hybrids, just to beat six children."

It was obvious they were talking about Max and her flock.

"I still don't see why you brought me here, of all places, Dr. Moore."

"We could use these ones. They're younger, but judging by their tests, just as strong, fast and smart."

"No."

"But, Dr. Dwyer…"

"They've been here too long; they won't do anything for us."

Too Damn right!

"However, they could come in useful in some ways…" The whitecoat called Dr. Dwyer took a needle out of her pocket, then without warning, she grabbed Harry's arm. Chase and I immediately threw ourselves against our cages, trying to get to Harry, who was whimpering and trying to pull his arm away from that mammoth bit-cow.

The whitecoat bent over Harry, then straightened up, the needle syringe filled with blood.

"Clones." She said, "Take blood samples from all of them except the smaller, blonde one. Then retire them." Then she left, followed by the other whitecoat.

Retire them.

I turned to Chase.

"Or we could escape now."

***

They were going to kill us. Retire us. Make us extinct. Whatever.

All day they took about ten blood samples from each of us, more from Chase, probably because Dreamer, (who didn't get any blood samples taken from her. Some people just get lucky.) is his sister. Two hours after the last couple of blood samples had been taken, a whitecoat came in holding a clipboard.

"In ten minutes, Erasers will come in and unlock your cages." He said.

"Right." I said, staring right through him.

"You are not to struggle, or try to escape."

"Okay."

"The Erasers will lead you out to the battlefield, where you will be retired."

I nodded mutely, feeling ill and like barfing was seconds away. I glanced at Chase, who was staring straight ahead, absently running his hands through his dirty blonde hair. The whitecoat left. Chase hadn't spoken to any of us since… we found out. Harry hadn't spoken either. He'd been curled up at the back of his cage, crying. I had tried to comfort him, but everytime I opened my mouth I had to shut it quickly before I threw up everywhere. Dreamer had her knees tucked up by her chin, her head ducked so all you could see was her blonde hair. I could feel Jake quivering in the cage next to mine. He turned to me, his big, blue eyes round and terrified.

What now? I could see the question etched on his face.

Poppy had fainted after her last blood sample, but she was awake now and was sitting still, her face clammy and pale, which made her red, waist length hair look darker.

SLAM!

"WAHHH!" I jumped about three foot and banged my head on the top of the cage. The Erasers laughed as if this was very amusing.

"Shut up, Scumbag!" I yelled at the nearest one. Probably not a smart move, but whatever.

The Eraser growled and yanked me from my cage. The same thing happened to the rest of my family. One of the Wolf-Boys grabbed my arm and pulled me out of my room. I was trying to stay strong for the younger kids, but I'll admit it, I nearly burst into tears as I was dragged towards my death.

OOOH, CLIFFY! Sorry about that. Guess what? I'm going to tell you a secret.

*Warning: this secret contains spoilers!*

The Flock are coming in the next chapter!!!

DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNNNNN!

Stay tuned.

Peace out,
