Angel Wings
Amy*grumbling as she held a flashlight over the electric box*: Goddamn crappy power. Goes out and leaves me in the dark...
Devlin: Boo.
Amy: HOLYY SHIIITTTTT!*drops the flashlight and it goes out* HOMICIDAL MANIAC! HE'S GONNA KILL ME! HE MUST HAVE CUT THE POWER... OHMYGOD, IT'S THE CHAINSAW-HAWKY-MASK DUDE! *runs screaming bloody murder.*
Devlin: ... I seriously don't know what she's talking about. So, I'll do disclaimer. Amy47101 doesn't own pokémon.

I kept my head against the bars of the cage, staring blankly in front of me. All of us were tired and hungry. I think just the other day, Flare broke. She hasn't spoken a word since her last punishment, and moved like she was the walking dead. It was tearing Forrest apart on the inside, and I didn't need any sort of power to see that. We were trying to be strong, not only for ourselves but for each other. But seeing one of your fellow Angels being dragged in and locked in a cage was disheartening all on it's own level, diminishing each and every hope for escape one at a time.
The door opened, and some scientists walked in. Had morning come already? Is it time for more tests? No. No, it wasn't. And I knew immediately when they brought in another winged girl. Surges' prediction had been correct. It was Wynter.
"Another one, done and done." said one scientist once they locked the door.
"Arceus, these things are irritating. All to rowdy, if you ask me."
"Yeah, did you hear that one actually put up a fight?"
"Yep. Apparently the shy one isn't to be underestimated." they both laughed.
"You know, it really sucks. These Angels or whatever are all so irritable, I wish we could give them punishment without doing it secretly."
"Yeah, but you know that Angela would throw a fit if we hurt her daughter." Daughter? They must mean Dawn. So Angela is that womens' name...?
"Speaking of Angela," I heard Dawn say, loudly, perhaps even boldly, towards the scientists. "I would like to see her."
"Oh, shut up. You know what speaking to us like that will get you. Just look at the fire-spitter." he chuckled. "Broke it but good, huh?"
"I don't believe you understand," Dawn continued. "You see, I am Angelas' daughter. I want to speak to her."
"Sorry, but no-can-do." the first scientist said. Dawn let out a low sigh. Then she opened her mouth and screamed bloody murder.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE LEFT?!" Eleanor screamed.
"Hey listen, it's not like I'm happy about it, either!" I exclaimed defensively. "Plus this whole 'Demon Blood' thing is really starting to freak me out. I don't like the idea of having someone else's' blood in me."
"You wanna know what I don't like?" Eleanor asked, her voice dripping with fake cheeriness. "The fact that a crazy team is using demons to scoop up my friends, whereas the guy who I trusted to help them and lead them while I was gone is doing absolutely nothing to fix the issue."
"Well, look who's talking!" I exclaimed angrily. "You've been down there, searching for Henry and completely abandoning us! Don't you dare criticize me for trying to pull this group together!"
"It's not criticism when it's true!" she yelled. "I'm sorry that I care for my family! I told you everything about me, but you haven't said a damn word about your mother or father since I met you! And you wanna know what? I don't think you have a family!" Now she was hitting below the belt. Well, two can play at that game.
"What about you, huh? Your mother is afraid of you, Eleanor! Cynthia and Henry try to look past the fact that you have wings, but deep down, you know they think you're a freak! And personally, I'm willing to bet everything I own that you're also the reason why your dad went missing!" I paused a moment. "I'll bet it feels awful to know you destroyed them. You destroyed your family."
There was a silence as Eleanor stared at me. Her mouth agape, and trying to think of a comeback. A full ten seconds past before tears began to well up in her eyes.
"Eleanor," I started.
"Don't call me." She said, her voice shaking. "Don't contact me. Don't look for me."
"C'mon, Eleanor..."
"If you won't help me, I'll do it myself!" She yelled before she hung up. I stared at the static on my screen. What I said then just came back to me. I accused Eleanor of everything bad that has happened to her family since she was five. I accused Eleanor of destroying them, and I even said she caused her fathers disappearance. My Arceus, that was low, lower than anything I've ever done before. And I said it to Eleanor, of all people...
I must be the worst person on the earth.

It seemed like Angela was there momentarily. The scientists in the room quivered from the dark look she gave them.
"Leave." she ordered. The scientists nearly went through the wall to get out of the room. I smirked. Weak things. Angela went up to Dawns cage, and, surprisingly, unlocked it. "Do you want to walk around, Dawn?"
"No. Not without my friends." Dawn answered. "I don't know, Angela, if you're ignorant or ignoring. You said we'd be fed, and all we get are leftover trash from dinner. You said we wouldn't be punished, but look at what they did to Flare. Just tell me, are you the same person you were before you 'died'?"
"Dawn, I'm sure you can see that I am very different," Angela kneeled down to the door of the cage. "But I'm always going to be your mother, and you my daughter. I know that you find it hard to believe, but this team has good intentions, they brought me back."
"I don't care who you are to me," Dawn said coldly. "But I know right now that you are no longer my mother."
"But, Dawn, can't you see? I'm doing what is best for you!"
"What's best for us?!" exclaimed Dash. " Are you blind?! Every damn day we wake up and go through tests, and every damn night we get locked back up in a cage. We never get fed, and we're starving! We go to slow, we're zapped. We speak, we're zapped. We do anything that you don't like, we're zapped, zapped, zapped, goddamnit!"
Angela looked at Dash with distain.
"Dawn," she said slowly. "Tell me, do you think I am truly evil?"
"Yes." Dawn spat. "You aren't the same women from my childhood."
"How saddening." she mumbled as she began speaking into a walkie-talkie. A few minutes of static-talk later, and some guards stomped through the door. "Take Subject One to be punished. Obviously, he had yet to learn how to behave."
"What?!" Aqua exclaimed. "No!"
"Subject Two, too." she added. "You will learn to be silent when in our presence." she stopped, and slammed the door of Dawns cage shut. Locking it, she said one more thing. "You think that I am evil now, Dawn? You truly don't know what evil is, yet. And guess what?" she chuckled, a sickening sound. "You just unlocked a small portion of it."

Devlin: A chilling ending.
Amy: Go die.
Devlin: No, thank you.
Amy: Jerk.
Devlin: I do not understand how I cam from such an immature mind.
Amy: And I can't understand how you're sitting here.
Devlin: Well, Dash, Aqua, Flare, Forrest, Surge, Wynter, Dusk and Dawn are all in cages, Carter is wallowing in sadness, and Eleanor is extremely pissed off right now. Do you understand, or do I need to say it slower.
Amy: Fuck off.
Devlin: You're worse than Flare.
Amy: I'm done talking to you. Read, review, and stay tuned!
