The Flock was shuffled into a conference room. The Erasers motioned for us to sit down.
"What if we don't want to?" I asked, snark seeping into my voice.
"Then we'll force you," growled the Eraser.
Slowly, we sat down into the plastic chairs surrounding a giant table. At least 10 white coats were seated among us.
"So, let's get this over with," I exclaimed. The white coats looked at me in surprise, as if they didn't think we were going to talk. What a shock. "We've been slated for Experiment 11287, Project Wipeout, yada yada. But what is it actually?".
"Is it like the show Wipeout?" began Nudge. "I love the show Wipeout. I think it looks so fun! Those big red bouncy balls look so fun to bounce on. Are we going to do that obstacle course. Do you-" Nudge stopped abruptly as Iggy's hand covered her mouth.
The White Coat at the end of the table stood up, pushing his chair in. He was pretty much bald, with only a few strands of hair remaining. He wore round glasses and chunky loafers.
"I am Dr. Lefebvre," he proclaimed in a thick French accent.
"Again with the accents," I heard Gazzy mutter under his breath. "Why can't the loony tune scientists be American?".
"You know, obviously, that you are going to be the first experiments to undergo Project Wipeout. And I'm guessing you don't know what that is. Well, I'm here to tell you. Project Wipeout consists of erasing all your memories of your life and giving you new ones. Your wings will be surgically removed and will be kept in this building. You want to know the best part? You'll have no recollection of each other."
That of course went over like a ton of bricks.
"You can't be serious!" Fang cried, springing up from the seat. Iggy and I both stood up after him.
"This is sick!" I screamed. "Sick!".
Nudge, Gazzy, and Angel ran to each other, clutching one another like it was their lifeline.
Iggy grabbed his chair and threw it across the room. It knocked over a couple of Erasers and one White Coat in the process.
At the sudden outburst, Erasers began to attack. Everyone was in their own fight. One advanced towards me and I roundhouse kicked in the chest. It stumbled backwards but then regained its stance. It smashed his claw against my face, leaving a deep gash against my cheek. I felt blood seep down my face.
What I didn't see was the other Eraser creeping up from the back.
It yanked me off the ground, the impact on my ribs causing searing pain. The Eraser threw me down and I crashed into the hard wall with a thump.
I distantly heard Fang cry my name but I couldn't reply, couldn't make a sound at all. Everything became fuzzy and my eyes suddenly felt very heavy.
And that's went everything went black.
