OOC: Yaaay! To both accounts! I love evil charries! *Strokes goatee* Wait... I don't have a goatee... Who's goatee is this!? *Looks at random passer-by* You have an awesome goatee!*Runs away*
@ Wings- I thought that character's name was Victor? Did you change it? And sounds good, hopefully we'll be there soon.

It happened too quick for me to respond, not that I really should have with Dev around. I'd get an earful from him later. I clutched my side, feeling a few ribs gently, knowing that they were indeed broken and would have to be fixed later. The fall was relatively slow, probably because my mind was working at such a high speed. Finally, I smacked the concrete covered ground, the air abandoning my lungs and hearing a sickly crunch as a few more things broke, this time in my leg and side. I gasped for air, and when I could breathe again I started coughing. A little blood came up, but I wasn't too concerned since whatever injury my lungs had sustained would mend itself in a minute or two. I would have cursed had I possessed the energy for it. I was somewhat comforted after seeing Skyler fly off a bit. No one had left the fight, as I assumed they were wanting to assemble before taking off. However, they still had other erasers to contend with and should have left as soon as they got a chance. I closed my eyes, focusing on breathing and trying to block out the pain, all the while hoping they'd escape. I just prayed it was a good thing.

I let out a shaky breath, "South!" I just wanted to get away, we'd figure out exactly where later but I knew someplace warmer sounded amazing right about now. Maybe Hawaii, I'd always wanted to go there. But it didn't matter. I observed the eraser leader guarding the human girl, Sasha. I would have helped if I could but there was no option but to flee at this point. I called out to the others in our group, "Hurry up, we need to leave now!" Dev's head snapped to look in my direction, but he looked frozen in place, regarding the red haired eraser. He muttered something, probably a curse, and screamed at the eraser girl to get it together and focus on capturing us. "I told you before! You can't kill them!" He raved. Somehow that didn't make me feel any better. I launched myself up in the air, near Skyler. "We need to leave now!" Still I hesitated, waiting for the others.

OOC: I don't want to make anyone's characters do anything without their consent, so here's the plan: Rayen and Skyler will make the hard decision to leave Galen behind, because they lack other options. Lee and Nikki will join them. (We'll just say the music helped calm things down and let them escape, kay?) Let me know now if any erasers join our small group. Becky sees them and follows them in her car. The rest will return to the lab, for various reasons (some by force). I'll just compose a small narration for it if everyone agrees.

OOC: Yep, she's one of the people brought back by force :) Can't forget that part, that's an important part of the plot line :)

OOC: Okay just let me know if you want me to edit something in :) And sure that seems like a good place to introduce him. There are some other people who were waiting for that so I'll let them know their charries can come in too. Sorry this is a bit long; I hope no one has any issues with it! Oh, and is it okay that I had Rayk reveal Shift's real name to the group that escaped? Otherwise, I'll change that.

I began my descent to the moonlit beach below, the first strip of sand unoccupied by rowdy teenagers and party goers. We were somewhere in South Carolina, and the warm weather was compelling my brain to shut off. I was exhausted from the day's fight and long flight. About eight feet from the ground I tucked my wings in and let myself fall into the sand that cushioned me. I sighed, briefly going through the last few hours' events in my head. Skyler's panic at Galen's situation, and my hopelessness in it all. I don't think I could forget that look he had given me. I hadn't questioned at the time what he meant by 'she said' referring to Galen. It didn't seem that unusual to have that kind of connection after everything I'd seen. He hadn't wanted to leave her behind, and I'd had a little trouble getting him to leave with me instead of going back to fight with her. Lee had been a big help, as had Nikki when it came to convincing him. Nikki had played some music that calmed him down, and explained to us how her music worked. I had to say I was impressed. Lee had distracted the eraser she was battling long enough to meet us in the air and make our escape. I remember hearing the leader order a couple of them after us; the ones Lee and I had been pitted up against. The rest overtook Sasha and Galen. I rubbed at my face, feeling uncomfortable with the burden of losing two people to the white coats. I didn't have a plan for what to do yet, and didn't even have the energy to freak out over it properly. The other avians landed around me, and I rolled my eyes to see where Rayk now lay. That had been interesting. He and the other eraser approached us, neither intending to give us much trouble at that point I guess. But he had recognized Skyler. To sum it up, he had continued on with us, to help us figure out a way to get Galen back if we could. The other had respectfully left us, giving us the heads up that she would claim Rayk had been killed and she outnumbered. How is it that everything can turn completely upside down in a matter of a few hours? This morning seemed so far away...

I struggled not to flinch when the scientists snapped by bones back into place. They had had to break them a second time in order to fix the damage Skyler had done. I had a feeling they'd be broken a third time by the time the night was done. Dev was furious. Xavier was even more so with us after hearing about how four avians had escaped us, and one of our ranks had been killed. He immediately demanded that Sasha be sent to the labs, saying that he'd think of something to do with her presently. She had seemed so afraid, and I felt horrible. But there was nothing I could do... right? Galen had to be brought in unconscious, to both Solar and Dev's discontent. Dev had wanted to use the serum on her that would make her follow his every command. Solar wanted her dead. Typical. I stared at the clinical, sterile white walls. I was in my cage again, even if my cage had more space to it than did the other experiments'.

OOC: Thanks! Yep you can RP again, and oh ya they didn't figure that out yet. I'll change it so that they don't know Shift's real name... Should I still include that they're cousins or should the others not know that? Did you want me to add the dramatic angry scene or is that something that'll happen now?? Hehe, I can totally picture that!
Oh and maybe I should make a non-eraser charrie for the School... cuz my good eraser charrie will freak the others out lol!
Yaay for peoples returning to the thread!!!

Why did they have to go so far away? A car can only go so far on the gas it already has! I had to stop to fill up the tank a few times and nearly lost Rayen. Then I almost fell asleep at the wheel once... That wasn't good... And not to mention I had to use the restroom BADLY! I would have to smack some sense into Rayen soon... When I found a parking spot... They had finally stopped somewhere in North Carolina, and I was so excited about getting out of this metal deathtrap and relaxing by the ocean. I unbuckled my seatbelt, grabbed my backpack, and leaped out of the car. I figured it would be towed before the morning so I made my peace with the fact that I had no way back. Not that I cared, my only home was with my family, which would be Rayen.

I heard the door slam into the wall as a couple of the erasers barged in, carrying a cage with a new experiment in it. Or was she new? I recognized that face; she had been here before. So she was one of the escapees. I looked around, squinting as my eyes adjusted to the new lighting. I waved at Riya and gestured to the "new" girl. 'What are you thinking?' I mouthed. I was thinking that if she could escape once, she could do it again and I would be there to help.

OOC: Wait! Your charrie was Shi, not Riya! Lol, did you want to add Riya??
