Chapter 9
Zack POV
The Truck rammed to a stop startling us all. We had been in this truck now for around 5 or 6 hours after that extremely long helicopter ride. It had been pure Heck. The back doors of the van opened letting in the light, meaning it was morning. We all turned our heads blocking the light from our eyes. All except Ian since he's blind after all.
The Erasers yanked us out of the van dragging us into the school. I looked around memorizing every hall way. Every door and every window. Everything really. They dragged us down a dark hall way and shoved open a door. I could see the dog crates already. Each of our faces drained of all color. The Twins and Bright were struggling, but I had given up. I was barely strong enough to handle 1 eraser. Not enough to hand the 2 that were carrying me. The others were a lot stronger and were able to take on eraser after eraser. My mom is the best at it though.
The Last time erasers attacked us. Was well before I was created. But the others have told me about the fight. Everyone had fought hard and tough. Talia had gone down first her knee snapped in 2 places and a broken arm. Then Ian with a side kick to the temple knocking him out, causing him some brain damage. Or At least we all think. Next Down was Bright with 3 broken ribs one of them stabbed a hole in her lung. Leo came slamming down a broken nose, a shattered knee cap, and a dislocated shoulder. Ouch. Then there was Silent. He rarely went down in a fight but when he did it was serious. He had gone down with a broken jaw, two broken legs and arms, his wings snapped, and a black eye.
Then there was my mom. The one who went down kicking and screaming. She never gave up. Every. That's how I knew we were getting out of this place. She wouldn't stop until we were all together again. Her, Silent, and Talia would come slamming threw that door any time soon and break us out. Giving out love and hugs to us all. But sadly it hasn't happened yet.
They threw us in the crates slamming the doors and locking them before exiting the room. I sniffled and pressed myself against the back of my cage. The others were around me. Leo to my left, Bright to my Right, and Ian across the isle from us.
"Why is it the blind one gets to be by himself?" Ian scoffed. We all chuckled. Ian always knew how to make someone smile. Even in the darkest of times he could make someone smile.
"I don't know. Because your you?" Leo said sarcastically. I gave a light chuckle along with everyone else.
We all went quiet as the door to the room opened. Several white coats walked in with some ugly looking erasers. I gulped and scooted back in my cage. They stopped in front of my cage and crouched down peering inside it.
I went pale as my cage opened. They reached inside the cage as I pressed myself against the back of it. The Grabbed my arm and yanked me out. By now the others were yelling and screaming trying to bust there cage doors open. They dragged me out of the room and down the hall. I silently memorized every way in and out. A left then a right...Another Right and straight. Simple.
They strapped me down to an ice, cold, metal table. I struggled against the straps. I gulped knowing they weren't gonna give me any drugs to numb the pain. My shirt was ripped open and a scalpel was pressed to my chest. I struggled under it as it ripped threw my skin. I Let out a bellowing scream that echoed threw the building.
