Chapter 10

I was laying on a hard bed in a (yeah I know the ironic sound of this) dungeon under ground with no sky for me to fly. Oh yeah, the best part is they have the flock. . .

The door to my room flew open with a huge clatter. "Hello to you to." I sat up looking bored at the new guards that they had to update seeing as I destroyed the last batch of them. They just grunted and picked me up. "Is this really necessary?" I shrieked kicking and hitting the guard. Guess I hit him in his weak spot or something because he dropped like a bird out of the sky, ironic isn't it?

"Maximum!" The Doctor cried walking up with the remote that I dreaded in the world the most. I snarled at him before sitting against the wall and didn't move. He kept pressing the button. "You leave me no choice then!" He huffed stomping off. He came back shortly with the guards hauling Fang and Bonnie behind them. He smiled at me wickedly. "Have your attention now don't I?"

I glared at him. "Leave them alone. I honestly don't understand how you haven't figured out that it doesn't do any good for you to have them around anyways, never gets you anywhere." I snarled.

"This time is differently Maximum, you see we have done some tests on Fang here and have learned that he has more powers than he lets on." He smiled wickedly. "Wouldn't it be interesting to see what would happen if you to had to fight each other in front of the whole world and your flock were sitting there in person watching everything?"

"Fuck you." I growled leaning my head back against the wall and closing my eyes. "You know I won't."

"Exactly why your daughter is here Maximum. We both know what a unhealthy amount of antithesis would do to her." He held up a large syringe that was filled with a clear liquid and walked towards her. "Your choice. Him or her?"

"Max-" Fang started. I shot him a look. "Damn it I'm making this choice. Me it's me alright?" He snarled looking at me with narrowed eyes.

"Maximum?" The Doctor looked at me expectantly. I could feel my heart break into two parts. My daughter and Fang. At least Fang would have a chance. . .

I took a shaky breath and looked at him with tear filled eyes. "Him." I whispered.

"Excellent! Guards take them to get ready for this most interesting demonstration. I will see you to in an hours time." The Doctor smiled and dragged Bonnie after him.

"Mommy!" She cried at me trying to fight him back.

"Oh shut up you insolent girl! You'll see her in a bit!" He snarled and threw her at one of the guards who looked disgusted at her.

"It's ok sweetie mommy will see you in a little bit ok?" I said wiping away tears. She nodded as the guard left. The remaining guards took me and Fang down to the room that I've seen so many times because of that jack ass. They shoved Fang in and let go of me and ran back down the hall way before I could turn around. "Looks like they added a brain this time." I snarled walking into the room as the door slammed shut.

"You could have ran for it Max." Fang said standing up.

"No, I can't I've tried trust me. Unless I want to be unconscious for days." I sighed sitting down on the floor closing my eyes. "And go through hell. . ." I saw images of the Doctor and his son in my cell at night. I felt goosebumps on my legs just thinking about it.

"They said they showed us everything they did to you-" Fang started.

"If they showed you one thing that they did to me YOU wouldn't be sitting still Fang." I spat standing up pacing which is what I normally do seeing as I never have anything else to do. "I just hope where they keep you guys Angel can't hear my thoughts and Iggy can't hear me. . ." I wiped my eyes when I felt tears touch my cheeks.

"Max, you know you can tell me anything right?" Fang said standing up and walking towards me. His foot steps were loud on the stone floor.

"No, Fang, I can't I really- I just can't ok?" I growled glaring at him. I heard footsteps walking down the hall way. "Sit down on the bench over there." I nodded my head toward the bench. He looked at me strange but listened to what I said. I hid on the side of the wall that they couldn't see unless they were coming in through the colleseum. Their keys clanked together. When they put them in the lock I tensed up and got ready to fight who ever was going to take us to the colleseum. Fang raised his eyebrows and looked at me. I rolled my eyes at him just as the door swung open.

"Alright, come on. I want to see some action and pain." The guard came in with a malicious grin. I put my jaw together tight as I punched him in the head knocking him out. I wiped my hands together.

"You know I'm getting really tired of them not giving them some more brain. . ." I sighed looking down at the unconscious guard. "Go get the flock. I'm going to take care of the Doctor. . ." I growled running out of the room to where I knew the Doctor controlled my own hell. Where he could watch everything and no doubt knew I was coming by now, unless he was busy with his 'secretary'. I felt the vomit coming up my throat and I had to fight not to dry heave in the hallway.

The door came into view to soon and I bursted in to see the Doctor and his son arguing over some sheet of paper. I cleared my throat.

"Aw Max, saw you gave the guard some difficulty again." he said like it was perfectly normal for me to knock someone out, granted I did it on a regular bases but never came to his office to beat the shit out of him either.

"Well if I didn't I wouldn't be here would I?" I snarled crossing my arms. The Doctor just nodded and went back to looking at the paper. "Am I not important enough to even look at now? Because as I recall a couple nights ago you couldn't stop looking at me."

"Derek perhaps it is time to call the enhanced guards. . ." The Doctor turned and looked at me again.

"Well please tell me that they have a brain this time. I swear you guys created us you would think that you could make something to fight us." I said exasperated.

Derek pushed a button on the wall and a siren wailed loud and windows were covered in metal. I heard metal clink against the stone corridors. I rolled my eyes.

"Father-"

"Why are you so freaked to be around me now?"

"She does not know yet Derek. You will share no information until we have had a chance to see if it is true or not. . ." The Doctor stood and moved past me to the corridor outside and nodded. Something my back with so much force I was thrown onto the wall in front of me. I knew there was no way I would stay conscious after that. And was I wrong.

I felt a groan escape my lips as I pushed myself up off of the floor spitting blood to the side. "That- was- a very- big- mistake." I snarled turning around to see a metal guard looking at me holding a large sword. "What I don't even get a weapon?"

"To the Coliseum Bernard." The Doctor said. The guard came over and picked me up and slung me over his shoulder. What kind of name is Bernard anyways? I mean seriously? What was your momma on when you were born kid.

Max maybe you should focus on the point of a robot thingy carrying you to the coliseum.

Angel I honestly don't think this guy is going to last five minutes so would you get out of my head!

Nope, Fang told me to make sure you don't do anything stupid.

Ugh hello its me we're talking about here! Since when do I do anything stupid?

Exactly Max we're talking about you.

Shut up. Honestly Angel I want you out of my head! SO GET OUT!

Fine be that way! I felt my head become extremely quiet other than me laughing at the cracks I was making at this robot thing.

"Yeah, so back to the name. Bernard? What are you a freaking scientist turned experiment? Since when do they experiment on each other?" He just grunted in response. "Wow for once someone who works here doesn't like to gloat about trying to kill me!" I gasped rolling my eyes. Which was wasted since he couldn't see my face. We walked into the coliseum where the flock was already tethered to the stone wall across from the door I came in.

"Wow, I'm impressed you guys actually were able to repair crap after I ruined everything." I said laughing.

"Enough Maximum." I looked up to see the Doctor in his box where he usually sat in these events. "I have some news for you which came as a great shock to me."

"An oh great wizard of science what would that be?" I snarled standing up.

"Well as you saw a few moment ago I got test results back from testing your pain levels." He shook his head like he was confused. "The levels were so high it would have killed your flock and you didn't even flinch."

"And yet you haven't noticed this when I do your little tasks yet?"

"We gave you chemicals that would have killed you. Everyone one of these tasks is to see if you are some how jinxing the experiments." He growled. "We have come to the conclusion that you may be immortal-"

"Whoa hold on. Immortal? I'm not a freaking vampire! Last I checked I didn't like drinking blood very much." I sneered looking disgusted.

"You were in a different department than you 'Flock'" The Doctor sighed. "Amazing that Jeb kept you with them when you could have saved the world long ago had he told you and kept you away from them."

I growled and walked back the way the guard had carried me one of them touched my shoulder. I turned towards him and kicked his feet out from under him. "While your at correcting others work maybe you should look at yours."
