Alarms ring out through the halls and the door bursts open. A tall, dark guard stands there, ready to fight.
“Dangit, Bird! What have you done?” He runs to the window towards sil, a knife out, but Gabriel grabs him, holding him back with a knife pressed against his neck.
“Go!” He shouts to Silver.
The other guards shout down the hall to let out Cove, send her around the the east wing.
Silver burst out of the hole and spun, seeing Gabriel locked in combat with a guard. She set her teeth and clenched her fists. Pumping her wings, she stayed in midair, hovering a few yards from the window. She knew she should just leave but she couldn't let Gabe fight on his own. Taking a deep breath, she threw up a barrier around Gabe and turned all of her energy against the remaining glass in the window, letting it build until it exploded, the whole force of the burst directed toward the guard.

Gabriel shouts something as Silver puts up the barrier around him. He clenches his teeth and death glares at her. He closes his eyes for a moment, focusing his strength, and breaks the barrier. He immediately heads out the window, spreading his wings but stay close up against the building.
“Don’t you dare!” He shouts.
Kissa floats effortlessly behind Silver, looking rather bored.
“I dare.” She states quietly.
She pulls up an invisible barrier around Silver.
Silver whirled around and caught sight of Kissa just as she felt the silence swallow her up. She didn't need to find the wall to know what Kissa had done. Rage heating her veins, she searched to find what size it was, how much room Kissa had given her, and fought to see if she had any control outside of it.
group
Kissa felt Silver struggle, testing the limits of the box, and her hands started to shake just a bit from the power she was using.
“Get her already!” She shrieks.
One guard jet packs up from the ground below them, entering the box with Sil while Kiss made a small hole for him.
“Stay still and this won’t hurt.” He growls, nearing her with a syringe.
Silver eased away from him, though there wasn't much room in the small confines of the box. Panic started to rise in her chest, but then an idea came to her. She took a deep breath and clenched her fists, gathering her energy and expanding it within the box until it felt like a physical force. It threw the guard against the barrier and shattered the syringe, but she didn't stop. For once Silver had absolutely no reason to try and control her power so she let it build and build and build, constrained only by Kissa's box and whatever strength the other girl had.
group
Kissa shrieks.
“Get her out of here before I let go!” She breaks out sweating and starts to breathe harder.
“Kiss, let us shoot!” A young guard calls from the window. Two mean start to shoot up at Silver from below and Kiss opens the bottom of the box as they shoot, aiming to her wings.
As soon as Kissa let part of the box open, Silver's energy ripped the rest of it away with deafening force as her power exploded, no longer contained. The guard in the air was flung back, hitting a building yards away. A sound like a shotgun popped all around as Silver's energy collided with the ground, the buildings around. Windows shattered and glass rained everywhere. Silver half fell, struggling in the air as the resistance was suddenly gone. Bullets still shot at her from the ground and she tried to fly higher, trying to find her energy again and use it to block those below.
group
Kissa flies back from the force of the blow, but quickly regains herself. She glares and sends blasts of strong wind towards Silver, trying to knock her out of the sky. Men shoot from the windows. “Aim for the wings!” One shouts.
Silver flared her wings out, feathers spread, and caught Kissa's wind, using it to carry her higher instead of fighting it. The building and Gabriel and everyone grew small beneath her. Diving and dipping to keep in motion and make it harder for them to aim at her, Silver wove away, but turned one last time and whispered into the wind, sending her words back to Gabe's ears alone.
Thank you for setting me free. I'll be back for you.
group
Airow runs into the room, going to Gabriel’s anklet and scanning it. It beeps and turns green. Airow shoves him towards the window.
“I have a sniper pointing at Kissa’s head, you don’t bring that girl back and we'll blow it off!”
Gabriel stares in disbelief, having never been threatened like this, but doesn’t waste any time to stumble out of the window. He flies up with great effort and heaves, then looks down on the building. Sure enough, there was a sniper on the roof, pointed towards Kissa. He pulls at his hair and growls before turning and following Sil.
“Wait!”
Silver faltered when she heard Gabe's voice, and then felt a sharp sting shoot through the end of her left wing. Her stance in the air dropped and when she spun to check her wing, she saw blood seeping into the feathers. Gritting her teeth against the pain she awkwardly flapped to keep in the air and hobbled farther away, watching Gabriel out of the corner of her eye as he caught up to her.
group
“Silver!” He flies to her side, worried for her and Kiss.
“Silver…” He breathlessly pants. “Please…”
the men stop shooting now that Sil and Gabriel are out of reach.
Gabriel rubs his collarbone and starts to cough.
“They-they.”
Silver hung in the air, beating her wings to stay still, trying to psych herself through the pain. "Oh, Gabe!" she reached out and grabbed one of his arms, trying to help him stay in the air. "Gabe, you shouldn't be up here, you need to rest!"
group
Gabriel shakes his head and points back to the building, managing a ‘sorry’ between his coughs. He takes her arm and breathes heavily.
“They’ll shoot her, please! Please Silver!”
Silver glared down at the facility, seeing the guns aimed at Kissa. And then it clicked. What had felt so oddly familiar about Kissa, the idea that had wormed it's way through her subconscious.
Kissa and Gabriel were siblings.
Potentially using a few of Ben's Russian curse words under her breath, she hooked her arms under Gabe's armpits and stabilized her wings, using her power of the air to drive them back down instead of working her wings. She landed on top of the same building as the sniper and lowered Gabe to the ground so he could recover. Turning toward the gunman, she flicked her hand and his gun and all his gear went sailing over the edge of the building and crunched on the pavement below. She walked to the edge of building and reached up, gathering her power behind Kissa and pulling her down to the roof beside Gabe and out of the line of fire from anyone else. Then she spun toward the gunman and gained on him, grabbing him by the front of his shirt and flinging him out over the edge of the roof, holding him above the ground far below. Wind whipped her hair and blood dripped from her wing.
"Go tell your master I'm ready to meet him." she hissed, and then threw him toward a door on the roof behind her.
group
The man stumbles, but instead of going inside shouts in the door, "Code Bird! We need you here, Almec!"
He points the gun at Silver and keeps it steady there as two younger people (prolly in their early twenties) run out onto the roof, one a blonde man and the other a redhead girl. They kneel beside Gabriel as he wheezes and the man sticks him in the arm with a needle as the girl gently helps him take his inhaler.
Kissa watches over them for a minute, then turns to glare at Silver. She starts to rage in an unintelligible language, but soon stops when a handful of large guards come through the door, weapons ready and glaring.
"Stand down, Silver!"
“Great” Leo pulled shadow and cage along “we should try and find him he might need help”

(LEEEEESTAAAAAA)

Cage nods and follows, pulling his phone out and texting Vi.
Shadow walked a bit ahead
Leo looked worried and kept murmuring to himself “this must have something to do with the person cage saw”
Silver slowly put her hands in the air. "I am stood down. Come on, let's get this over with."

Cage shrugs. “What are we doing now? Leo?”
(So sorry I took forever D:)

Silver slowly put her hands in the air. "I am stood down. Come on, let's get this over with."
Four guards start to approach her, three with guns aimed and ready to fire, and the fourth holds a pair of hand cuffs. He takes her wrists and roughly cuffs them behind her back.
He looks up to one of the other guards. “Her room is 4B.”
Silver let them cuff her, keeping her powers in check even though it would be so easy to rip their guns away from them. She took a deep breath and let them lead her back into the facility.
“I don’t know, we should try and track them down fast” he looked extremely worried shadow was looking around “they are probably watching us now.”
(Sorry I didn’t respond)

Silver let them cuff her, keeping her powers in check even though it would be so easy to rip their guns away from them. She took a deep breath and let them lead her back into the facility.
The men forcefully lead her down two flights of stairs and into a cell. Well, it has a barred door, but the inside walls are painted a soft green and there are two small mirrors on the wall. A twin sized bed sits by the left wall and a small doorway leads into a bathroom. There’s not really any light fixtures, but a soft light is pouring from the ceiling. They open the door and shove her in, locking it behind her.
“Call the station guards in to stay near her. I don’t want her lose again.” One of them growls. He turns to give her a hard glare before marching out with his men. Two guards reappear within moments and stands outside the door on either side.

“Track Violet down? I- I don’t know how to do that.” Cage nervously looks around, feeling colder by the second.
its okay. It’ll be fine.
“Hey cage you’ve known violet for the longest do you have any ways of tracking her.”
Shadow looked like he was deep in thought
group
Cage shakes his head. "I have her number but that's it. And they probably have our phone tabbed. Or something like that." He purses his lips and looks to the ground. "She knows where I am though. They'll have my location. Should we just kinda wait around for them?"
