New York City. A lot of people tended to call it the big apple, or something like that. It made you wonder exactly who had nicknamed a city that, or if they were hungry why they were doing it. Of course, the only thing that really mattered at that point in time was finding some place to hide. And New York City, was a pretty big place, big enough to even hide a few bird kids.
At that point, the flock had been in New York, Iggy guessed about two days. Angel had begged Max to stop. Doing some normal tourism. Normally after Angel got started, it normally meant Total would pop in the conversation too. Not that Iggy really minded to much. Taking a breather was actually a good thing to do. It was just what Angel suggested they do that got Iggy a little upset. The Zoo.
Of all places Angel could of picked. There were tons of things that she could of picked, but well, it was this one that stuck. Naturally, Iggy hadn't said anything about it. But, when you were going someplace that you actually needed sight to enjoy it got a little depressing. They hadn't been at the place long, and it was a nice day. Iggy could hear a lot of noise, meaning a big crowd. And it didn't help when people shoved past you to get somewhere else.
Iggy didn't really get what was so fascinating to them. It was just stupid animals, okay, stupid animals that he really wished he could see. Iggy followed the flock around, hearing Angel squeal about this or that, and Max trying her best to describe what the animal looked like. It subdued him for a while, but after that while was up, it just got boring.
Iggy didn't stay to far away from everyone, mostly a hand kept on Gazzy's shirt kept him from getting separated. When the flock decided they were separating to do different things, that Iggy called himself off. Fang and Gazzy, going off to see the snakes, the girls going to the otters, or something like that. It had taken him about five minutes to convince Max to let him sit on a bench between the two places.
She had of course, tried to apologize about the whole sight thing. Iggy had waved her off. "It's fine Max. I'm just tired." he would lie. She finally agreed letting him sit on a bench and listen to people walk by. It was completely boring to him. He let out a sigh and put his head in his right palm, sightless blue eyes looking at the people as they passed. "Really, what is it about animals that make people so nuts? This place is completely boring." he said out loud talking to himself. In reality, he was just trying to convince himself the same thing.

Nita cursed under her breath. She had bean being chased thought he streets of New York City. Lyric guided her. With all the noise it was really hard to figure out where she was. After hours of being chased she heard a kid scream "THE ZOO MOMMY! Lets go to the zoo it's right there." Thinking quickly she whispered a command to Lyric. She got out her walking stick that she kept in her bag as well as a leash for Lyric. Lyric was pretty big for a puppy. She grabbed a puppy in training shirt and tugged in on Lyric. This way people would think she was in training to become a dog for someone blind. And she was blind so it worked out perfectly. They slipped into the crowd going into the zoo.
At the entrance she was stopped by the guard's. But she soon proved that she was one hundred percent blind and they let her in. A sigh of relieve escaped her and they walked slowly through the crowd. Lyric told her everything and described everything for her. Getting tired she told Lyric to find a bench to sit down at.
It wasn't long before Lyric led her to a bench that had a boy about 14 sitting there. She sat down and patted Lyric. "Good job girl." Turning she smiled at the boy and looked at where she thought the boys face was. "Sorry hope you don't mind me sitting here. I needed to sit down for a moment. I'm Milie." She lied not wanting to give her real name out but also trying to be friendly and blend in.

Iggy hadn't been sitting for long. There was noise everywhere, and it was really starting to bother him. He normally had better hearing than all of the flock to make up for his loss of sight. But, when it came to a huge place like this, with lots of noise and crowds, sometimes the male just couldn't handle the pressure. He didn't really enjoy it much either. A small frown had come to his face at that thought. He picked his head of his chin and leaned back against the bench. All he had to do was wait right? Eventually Max and the others would finish up, one of them would get bored and they could leave. Iggy liked that idea, he liked that a lot actually.
It was when he was thinking about actually leaving that he felt the bench move only slightly. It startled him, at first. Normally he would of heard someone walk up but with all this cursed noise he really couldn't do anything right. God, Iggy needed to get out of this place right now. He was a bit tense, but, really who wouldn't be? The boy, was blind, he couldn't use any of his normal resources and of course.. the flock wasn't with him. All because Iggy had been bored. Irony, lovely Irony. "No I'll be completely safe Max" he had said. And yet here he was unable to do anything and possibly in some form of danger. Oh how he hated being ironic.
He sighed to himself before he heard whoever it was talking. He had been in his own thoughts so he had totally zoned out. He turned his head toward the direction of the voice. It was a female, from the voice type he assumed. The blonde would of never guessed that she two was blind though. Didn't mind her sitting here? Oh! OH! The bench. He forgot all about that. He really needed to stop getting lost in his thoughts. Actually from the looks of it, he needed to stop doing a lot of things. Something more to work on, great.
"Oh, its fine! I was a little tired to.." he said back. She gave her name and Iggy was forced to think of one. He had been teasing Fang this morning about FNick, so it was the only thing in his mind at the moment. And he most certainly wasn't going to be using Figgy. Oh Fang was gonna kill him for using his fake name. "Oh, I'm Nick." he said softly. She seemed friendly he guessed. But, even then, it was always the ones that seemed nice that grew fangs and tried to snap your head off right?
Even though it had gone well so far, Iggy still had his guard up. But still it wasn't like he could go anywhere. He had no idea where the flock was at that moment, and he couldn't just do an up and away, after all, it would be his luck that a lamppost or something like that was right above him. No thank you. He just hopped that for once, thing would just work out. Just this once. If there was a god of irony out there somewhere, he deserved that much, didn't he?

Nita listened closely hoping that she had lost them men that had bean chasing her. She wished she could just take to the sky. But the people who had bean chasing her had helicopters. And other hybrids that could fly. She had no chance by herself. She hated this place so much. If it were not for Lyric she would be out of there in a heart beat. She tried to focus on the sounds and detect any footsteps coming near her. But all the noise was to much for her. Nita thought she could hear footsteps coming towards her and tensed up but was unsure. When the boy replied she smiled and nodded. "It is a pleasure to meet you Nick. Are you here with anyone? Or are you by yourself?" Nita wanted to try and be nice to who ever she was sharing the bench with.
Max had left Nudge and Angel with Fang. She had wanted to check up on Iggy and make sure he was still ok. She had seen a few helicopters soaring around. She was afraid that they where looking for her Flock. As she reached the bench she saw a girl sitting with him. She bit her lip and wondered who she was. She could see she had a service dog in training with her. And wondered if she was also blind. She quickly walked over to Iggy. "Hey everything ok Iggy? Were almost ready to leave." She looked at the girl and was taken by surprise to see the girl looking at her but about three inches to the left of her head. Just like Iggy did when he looked at her. She was pretty sure the girl was blind now.

Fang walked along the exhibits, following Max. The helicopters flying above made him uneasy, and he didn't want to let any of the flock out of his sight. He could hear Nudge and Angel following him, exclaiming now and then about one or the other cute animal. Finally he saw Iggy and Max talking. Another girl was sitting next to Iggy, a puppy with a vest sitting at her side. He thought that she might be blind as well, she was looking away from those around her. That would explain the dog, at the very least.
Fang walked up to he group and looked at Max, "The helicopters are like the ones from the school. I think it would be a good idea if we found a building or at least a roof to keep us out of view from the air." His voice was almost silent, but he knew Max would be able to hear him.

Iggy, was trying his best to pay attention. It was rather hard though, considering all the things that were going through his head at that very moment. There was, the school, Erasers, hybrid's that wanted to tear your head off.. and just about anything else that wanted to lock him up, or use him as a chew toy. Once again he was pulled out of his slight trance when he felt the girl stiffen beside him. His head turned slightly toward the place where he felt her body stiffen. Had he said something wrong? Looking back on exactly what he had said he couldn't think of anything. "Hey, you okay?" he asked softly.
Iggy heard her respond, but it wasn't what he expected her to say. He guessed she hadn't heard his earlier question. That wasn't to good. He let out a soft sigh. He was about to answer her question, most likely lying and saying he was by himself, but that wouldn't work. He guessed that the female had all ready figured out he was blind. She probably was just being nice. So he couldn't use that excuse. It was then that another voice made him jump even more than before.
What was it with people trying to sneak up on him in a place like this? It wasn't fun, and Iggy didn't really find the humor in it. The voice however got him back on track instantly though. It was Max. When she spoke his name he seriously wanted to facepalm himself. If she had heard Max say his name, there were going to be problems. He guessed she had to. Well, that wasn't going to work. Since now.. he would have to explain why someone he knew was calling him something else. He looked in the direction he guessed Max was. "I'm fine Max.. but. um.. yeah.. I think we should go.." he said softly.
He wondered if she had realized there was someone SITTING RIGHT NEXT TO HIM. Come on now, he was the one that was blind here, and he knew she was there. Why was max, ignoring her, and saying their real names? He thought she was the worst when it came to people being Erasers and stuff. So why, was she acting all calm and using there names now? It was then, that Iggy heard Fang's voice. Where they all there? Normally Iggy could tell when it was his flock by their footsteps, but the cursed noise. He was never coming to a place like this ever again.
Iggy could hear Fang completely fine due to his hearing. He didn't like what he had said either. After all, he had guessed that something would happen, just not so fast. The school was here, but for what reason? The flock hadn't done anything yet, had they? Or was there an Eraser somewhere here watching them? Iggy didn't really like this situation at all. But, he really couldn't leave just like that. He looked back in the direction of the female that was sitting next to him. "Sorry Milie, something has come up and I have to leave with my friends. I'll see you around sometime okay?" he said kindly.

Pearce waked through the zoo. He could smell the girl they where after. He was getting closer. He was ready to shift as soon as he got close enough. There where so many people here that where mixing up all the scents. But his sense of smell was even stronger than a dogs. He didn't even need to be in his big cat form. Finally he saw her. She was with a few other kids. He walked up from behind and placed his hand on Nita's shoulder. Bending down he whispered. "Tag, your it."
Nit was listening to everything. When Nick asked if she was ok she nodded. She didn't feel like talking just than. When she heard the new voice she sighed with relief. She had bean afraid it was an unknown. Just as she heard Iggy say he had to go. She felt a hand roughly clamp down on her shoulder and heard the whispered words. Fear filled her and she snapped her wings open in hopes that she would be able to fly away. Lyric also snapped her wings open and began growling and bit down on Pearce's leg. She was so scared she had even forgotten that the woman called Nick Iggy. "Leave me alone," she hissed and kicked out where she hoped he was and felt her foot hit something. Hopefully it wasn't a bystander like the boy and his friends. She didn't want anyone to get hurt but the unknown.
Max had bean relaxed and she realized she had slipped up with Iggy's real name. She mentally slapped herself. hearing Fang's voice she was glad that he had brought the others with them. They where going to get out of there fast. The helicopters where starting to circle the zoo. Something was going to happen any minute. She was so aware she noticed the guy walking towards them. She was ready to fight but was taking by surprise when he went for.....the girl? What was even more surprising was seeing the fear in her eyes right before she snapped open pure white wings. And the dog beside her even had wings. "Flock prepare for a fight." She called out. She could see Gassy, Nudge and Angel step forward excitement filling there faces. She quickly whispered in Iggy's ear where the enemy was."
{Sorry Neme i didn't play Max to well that first time. I'll try to do better.}

Fang watched silently as he watched the man walking through the crowd. He had noticed him earlier, as soon as he had come into view. his senses had told Fang at once that this would be an enemy, or at least a person to watch. He stepped closer to the bench, closer to Max and Iggy. To his surprise, the man didn't go for any of the flock, but for the girl sitting next to Iggy, Millie, he had hear Iggy call her.
He tensed up as Max said to prepare for a fight, shooting a quick glance at Nudge, Angel and Gassy. They were ready for the fight, though, and so he didn't say anything to him. He loosened his wings slightly, ready for flight.
Just then, the man flinched backwards. The girl, Millie, had kicked him, and her dog had bit his leg. That's when Fang saw the dog's wings, but he didn't have enough time to bother with it. Instead, he watched Max, waiting for her command to start fighting.

Iggy hadn't thought of anything in that moment, other than getting out of that place. The only real thing that had been okay with him was meeting Milie, but still he didn't like that he couldn't hear well. It was just an added bonus that Max and the others had come to him, instead of him having to go off and find them. He knew he probably would of been more prone to running into a wall that way. He let out a sigh, glad that it was over and he didn't, in fact, run into anything despite all the noise. That was an accomplish wasn't it?
It was only then before he got up, at max's call, that he felt the girl next to him tense once again. At first Iggy didn't know why she had done it. Maybe cause he was leaving? He wasn't quite sure before he heard a voice. It was meant to be a whisper he assumed. But, once again, Iggy could hear whisper's as if they were spoken in a normal tone. Yay, for super hearing! At first Iggy thought maybe it was a friend of hers. Wasn't that a game, tag your it. But the way the voice sounded, it was gruff, and that was never a good sign. The girl's voice had been so soft, and this guy, he couldn't possibly be a friend of her's could he?
It was about then that he heard something he didn't expect. Wings. He heard wings opening, but they weren't his flock. He knew that sound, and this, wasn't them. He also didn't expect a huge thing of feathers hitting him across the chest. Thankfully it was soft but it startled him. That meant, that... the girl next to him was.. ? She was an experiment too, that much was certain wasn't it? That voice then, he had been right, it had meant danger. Danger, experiments, wings, all of that really didn't sound like fun to him. It was about then that the girl yelled out at whoever the man was, and he heard a growl, apparently she had hit him, he guessed.
He heard Max. Prepare for a fight? Well that was just a bit obvious. Iggy had gotten that much. But what he would really like was to know what was going on. As far as he knew, none of the flock had opened their wings, and yet he had felt a wing. He really needed to know. He couldn't help it any longer. "Max? What in the world is going on?" he said. He had no idea that an all out battle was about to happen. Fun, just fun.

Max snarled at the guy who still held a tight grip on the girl. "The girl your sitting next to is a hybrid. And there's a guy attacking her." She told Iggy than launched herself at Pearce and did a snap kick at his face.
Pearce howled in pain as the dog bit into his leg and the girl kicked him. He really hated doing this but what choice did he have. He began to change. Though he still looked like a human to some degree his skin had turned white and he now had cloudy spots and huge fangs. "Do not make me do this Nita. I have bean chasing you for many months. Do not make me hurt you just come with m...." He stopped mid sentence as another foot kicked him in the face. He felt his nose break and blood begin to poor down his face. "Your going to regret this bitch" he snarled and rake his super sharp claws at her. As he looked around the kids that where around Nita where all ready for a fight. "Well what do I have here a hybrid get together?"
Nita cried out as the claws in the hand Pierce had grabbed her with dug into her skin. "Let me go, Pearce leave me alone. She punched her free hand at where she hoped his head was and missed. "Gah I hate being blind she cried out."
Lyric snarled and bit down harder until her teeth met bone and she shook her head.

Fang jumped forward as the man called Max a bitch. Without drawing any attention to himself, hoping that the man was distracted enough by Max, Millie, and the dog not to mind him. When he came up behind the bench, he snuck up close to the man and chopped at the man's spotted neck with his hand. He didn't notice the transformation going on with the man's teeth, maybe it was better that he didn't. All that he did notice was that the man's skin seemed to be changing into a clouded pattern. That alone left no doubt in Fan's mind that the man wasn't human after all, but a hybrid. That gave him the strength to repeat his attack with the other hand, this time just short of being strong enough to snap the spinal cord. Killing someone in a zoo would just complicate things, so Fang restrained himself. As it was, the shock would at least hurt the man.
