Introduction
In a time where Max and her flock didn't exist, a different flock is born. Raised in the dreaded School, they were tortured and used for the Whitecoats cruel experiments. They escaped. An intern by the name of Alicia Rusalka took pity on them and hid them away. While they were en rout for a transfer to The Institute, she injected the truck driver with a tranquilizer, then hijacked the truck. She drove the six experiments to her parent's vacation house in the mountains, a two day drive from the school. She told them it would be their home from now on, that they wouldn't have to be scared anymore. That she would protect them. She lived with them for a year, taking care of them, and taking measures to remain hidden. She shut down her credit card, got rid of her cell phone, hid her web presence. She was one hell of a hacker, good at hiding herself. Alicia took on a job at a computer repair shop in the town an hour a way, wanting to support her new little family.
However, the peace Alicia had given the children was short lived. The School found her. They caught her at work and told her they'd let her live if she told them where the children are. She refused. They took her back to the school and tortured her family in front of her, saying they'd do even more horrible things to all of them if she didn't tell them where the six children were. She didn't want to see her family hurt, but she couldn't tun in the children. Alicia Hung herself with a bed sheet in her cell, unable to deal with the stress.
Now begins the story of the six children, the new Flock, hunted by the School, hoping to survive.
"This is our family."

The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 6 authors
The closer she got to the city, the more alert Alek became. She hid her ears, tail, teeth, and claws so she appeared more human than hybrid. Before actually entering the city, she caught a few rabbits, wrapped them in some old (now) useless clothes, and easily slipped in without anyone noticing. It didn't take long for her to find her flock in an alley way with Tyson passed out and the others worried. With a smile she stepped out of the shadows, "I'm glad to see everyone made it." She walked over to the small group. "I'm glad everyone is okay... ish." She rubbed her cheek and hugged Puki and Addy, gave a warm smile to Synax, and hugged Rooke while placing a kiss on top of his head. "I have a few rabbits and sticks for a fire, eat up." Then she walked over to Tyson who was still passed out. Pleased to see the gunshot would hadn't opened, she knelt down and gently shook him. "Ty, you have to wake up. Come on Ty. You need to eat. Tyyyyyy."
She tried to put a word in when Alek told them to leave, but before she could Tyson swept them out of the house. She hated the idea of leaving Alek at the house, but she knew there was no point in protesting. There was nothing they could do and she knew, deep down that Alek could take care of it herself.
When they landed in the alley, she knew Tyson was in terrible shape. She nodded at his words giving him a small hug not wanting to hurt or damage his wounds. When he collapsed she let out a small gasp, when but gave a small noise of relief when Rooke put him safely to the ground. That's when she really focused on Rooke, he wasn't in great shape either, "Rooke, are you alright? I-Is there anything I can do?" She said in a small voice. She knew he wasn't in a great mood, but she felt terrible. She was about to check his injuries when the voice of Alek behind her, made her jump. She turned around beaming and ran to hug the girl, "I'm so glad you're alright!" She exclaimed happily, before letting her go sensing her worry over Tyson.
"Rooke." She said gently as she wrapped her arms around him and pulled him to her chest. She nuzzled her cheek to his hair. "I think you know we need to talk about you flying off earlier." She kept him in a tight (but not too tight) hug in case he had any desire to flee. "I think now you know that was a terrible idea, it was dangerous not only for you but also for everyone else. From now on you have to bring one of us with you if you decide to go somewhere." She raised her eyes to look at everyone. "Everyone needs to work in the buddy system." She began slowly rocking back and forth. "It's dangerous for all of us to be alone. It's easier to be caught if we don't have someone watching our backs. No more going off on your own, okay?" She knew he felt guilty about flying off, getting, and attracting the hunters... Hell she would have.
[OOC: Since Synxa is up for adoption, I had her do something to move the RP along]
Rooke flexed his shoulder and wings once Synax had healed them. Although still a bit sore they were perfectly fine. His bad eye and side were also healed well. Rooke imagined there was hardly and scar tissue on his shoulder now. He put his wings away when Alek picked him up and put her in her lap. He snuggled into her instinctively as she hugged him. He frowned at the scolding, tears starting to burn at his eyes. "I just wanted to help... I would of been okay if I wasn't so stupid and looked where I was flying... I promise not to do it again," He mumbled, looking down in shame. He nuzzled his face into Alek's chest, hugging her tightly. He listened as she talked to the rest of the group, nodding in understanding.
Rooke was quiet the rest of the time as Tyson slept and Synax rested. When Syn finally had the energy to heal Ty, Rooke got up and sat right next to his older 'brother'. Once Synax was finished healing Tyson Rooke checked his shoulder. There was barely a scar. The sparrow sighed, and sunk back onto his butt, slouching and messing with his shoes. Realizing his clothing was covered in blood Rooke went over to his duffle bag, grabbing a shirt, as well as some pants. They were rather clean, the pants only having a little bit of dirt on them. Glancing at the group he shuffled behind a dumpster, quickly changing his pants first before pulling on his favorite flannel shirt. He walked out into the open as he finished buttoning the shirt, his dirty ripped clothing under his arm.
At the sound of Alek's voice she looked up and nodded, "Of course" she said. It felt nice to finally be put to some useful work, as she stood up and brushed off her clothes looking at Alek.
"Alright Addy, let's head back to the others." Alek ruffled the girl's hair before turning and creeping back. It took less time to return since they weren't making any detours. By the time the two slipped in through a window she found Rooke sitting happily near Tyson. "Look who's finally up, you lazy bum." She grinned at her hybrid flock member. "Thought I was gunna have to dump ice down your shirt." She plopped down on the ground in a very unlady like manner. "The areas secured for now so everyone can rest assured we are safe for the time being. Lights out soon, tomorrow's gunna be a long day exploring if we're up to it. Our mission tomorrow is to try and blend with this city."
Biting her lip, Alek looked up at her flock, "We don't have to decide now and we wouldn't go after them until we have a solid plan and backup plans... But," She let out a sigh and stood, needing the freedom to move. "Just think about it I guess. If you don't want to I'll understand and I'll run to the end of the earth to keep you safe." The anxiety that once showed on her face was replaced with a gleam that told of the anger that lingered inside from the horrors she experienced. "But I for one am tired of being treated like an animal that needs to be caged."
It was quiet a moment before Alek let out a laugh and walked over to him. Mussing Tyson's hair, she gave him a smile letting him know that the kiss wasn't a big deal before addressing the flock again. "I know Ty's at least in, but I want to know what everyone else thinks. If you need time to think it over, that's fine and before we start planning we need to work on blending in here and finding a safe place." She tapped her lips as she thought about what their next moves would be.
Tyson took the rabbit with his right hand then put his left arm around Rooke carefully pulling him down so he is laying on his back across Tyson's lap. with a smile, "Since you ask so nicely I guess I can try some. That is as long as the rest of you have had some." He smiled at Rooke then looked up at Alek, still smiling. Not only did he have a family again, he was now gearing up to take care of the people who stole his real family from him. But a thought that had never accrued to him before suddenly made him look away from everyone. Had he never been taken to the school, had he never lost his family, had he not escaped, he never would have meet these wonderful people, he never would have grown so close to them. He started to almost feel grateful for what the school had done, but he quickly suppressed the feeling.
The apprehension on Addy's face made Alek speak up, "We don't have to decide now. I just want you to think about it. If anyone doesn't want to, they don't have to."
"You're thinking of splitting the Flock up?" Addy hated being alone, she also hated the idea of everyone not being together. Both Puki and Addy disliked the idea of everyone not being together, it was bad enough when Alek had stayed behind to take care of the hunters but to purposefully be apart for an unknown amount of time seemed like torture.
Alek's face softened, "We'll cross that bridge when we get there. I'm only saying that I'm not going to force anyone to go against the School if they don't want to. We'll think of something. But right now, everyone needs to get some sleep. We have a busy day tomorrow. I'll take first watch, everyone try to get some sleep." She walked over to give both Puki and Addy a reassuring hug. They honestly wouldn't be making a move against the School for some time because it would be a lot of planning to ensure everyone got out safe and mostly unharmed. Half an hour later Alek found herself close to a dim fire with Addy's head in her lap and Puki's foot resting against her hip. Synxa was resting off to the side, far away enough to not be touching anyone but close enough that she felt the presence of her makeshift family. Alek looked up at her brothers, "Try to get some sleep." She knew them, Rooke may have an easier time falling asleep, but Tyson was always a gamble. He had somehow snuck out of the house under her radar... She was going to be more vigilent with him. Can't have her alertness dull.
Secretly Tyson was probably more worried now though, he was feeling a connection to people, and trying to have them all blend in but stay together felt like a dream more then a plan. Tomorrow still seemed to bring a feeling he thought lost to him a feeling of hope.
In the morning, Tyson who had taken last watch, sat perched on the fire escape watching over his family. As soon as he saw anyone move as if they were waking up, he jumped and rolled as he landed. Springing to his feet he grabbed a bag he stashed aside that night and handed them all an aluminum wrapped dinner. Inside was a little chicken, half a corn on the cob, and two roles kept warm by the chicken. "Eat up. I got them from a place that was going to throw them out." Thou he said it with a smile the look he shot Alek told a different story.
With a slight twitch, Alek woke without opening her eyes. She listened as Addy sat up and yawned loudly before squeaking when a container was given to her. Puki pushing gently against Alek's leg as she also stretched her slightly sore muscles and then got up to munch on her food. Barely making any sound, Alek heard Synxa sit up. Her ears also caught Rooke waking up. Satisfied all of her flock was awake, she opened her eyes to catch Tyson's look. She smiled at her older younger sibling in thanks and quietly munched on her food. Her stomach still turned with queasiness. She hadn't had that particular dream in a while... it was probably because of having to use her skill yesterday on those hunters.
Once finished, she stood up and loosened her muscles from a night in an awkward position. Turning to face her flock she said, "Alright my lovely Flock, today we have business to take care of. First, we need to find some clothes that don't make us look like killer homeless kids, we are of a higher class than that. I have some money so we'll head to a local salvation store or Goodwill and get hopefully two outfits." She thought out what they needed, it would be better to split up, but after yesterday she wasn't sure any of them were ready to break into smaller groups. "I have some jewelry I want to pawn, while I do that with Addy, I want the rest of you to go to a drug store or some other store that sells essentials and start getting stuff. I'll make up a list and once Addy and I are done we'll meet up with you. If we have money left over, maybe we can find somewhere to stay so we can clean up a bit if not we'll have to find an abandoned building. Lastly, within the next few days I want to get to know the homeless/ transient population. They can be handy with information and ways to disappear."
List: Shampoo, Soap, Conditioner, Brush, Non-perishables, First Aid, Scissors, Ibuprofen, Toothbrushes (unless still have), Toothpaste, 1gal water
She wrote herself a separate note and stuffed it in her pocket before folder the main list up and passing it to Puki. "If there's any repeats on the list don't get them and if you can think of anything else that's important get it. Let's go." She grinned before turning on her heels and heading towards the street. As the rest of the Flock followed, she fell back to watch them.
Puki happily walked beside Synxa chatting with her about something the quiet feline had drawn the day before. As she spoke and listened, her eyes scanned to make sure everyone was together but otherwise was relaxed and enjoying the sun. Addy was giddy, bouncing around while staying close to the large group. She fluttered around from different groups talking about how excited she was to finally be in civilization again. For the first time since staying with Alicia, the young Mamba was acting like a regular 12 year old.
