[color=90bbbb] "WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOUR RETARDS?!" Seb heard a voice screaming while he fades in and out of consciousness. The gunshots continued, but they were far less than before. Outside the Airport he could still hear the occasional thundering sounds of the APCs shooting.
"You saw what he did with the feral, we don't know if he will turn on us. DO NOT, i repeat, do not let your guard down." Seb heard as he felt someone carrying him around. He tried to talk, to convince them that he meant no harm, but he couldn't even move. His body was too weak, he could still smell the blood. Only one big word flashed in his mind: HUNGER. The transformation made him very weak, probably exhausting every single bit of energy in his body.
[color=008080]"Food... Please... I beg... you..."[/color]  Seb manages to say before going unconscious again.
The last things he heard were voices nearby saying something about him.

A few hours later Seb woke up in a completely closed room with the smell of fresh meat. Quickly opening his eyes, he could only see the big piece of meat in front of him, in a dish that was neatly resting over a steel desk. He didn't even noticed the armed guards looking at him on the other side of the bulletproof glass that formed the room's walls, separating him from the rest of the wounded in the medical wing built by the marines.

Jumping up, he grabbed the meat with his wing claws, eating it voraciously. It wasn't a particularly tranquilizing sight, especially due to Seb's sharp teeth and the ferocity he ate the big piece of meat, smearing his face with the blood of the raw meat. Although it was a cold piece of bovine meat that he would otherwise refuse, he ate it gladly. It tasted incredibly good for him due to his hunger. When he finally finished eating, he used his wings to clean his mouth. It was then that he saw two marines pointing at him with rifles on the door.

"So, you finally woke up huh? I would strongly recommend against you trying anything funny. See these rifles? They're loaded with tranquilizing darts. Enough to put an adult lion to sleeeep like a baby in just one shot." The voice came from a bulky, middle aged man that entered the room.
Differently from the others, this one wasn't carrying a weapon. Obviously he was also a marine, as it was evident by his trained body and his uniform. Paying more attention on the later one, Seb could easily distinguish a white bracer with a red cross on it. 
"You can call me Gears. Lieutenant Gears. Been watching you for a while. You gave quite the show back there with the feral. Yes... it was quite an... [i]inhuman[/i] feat." Lt. Gears said to Seb, which was still rather groggy and slow.
"You want to know why you're still alive? Well.... Have you already heard about the saying: The enemy of my enemy is my friend?" the man said, with cryptic smile.

"That and Let's also say that i am very interested about you. What are you, young man? Wings, claws, powerful talons, feathers... What in the world happened and why haven't you turned to feral just like the rest of them?" the man asked, grabbing one of his wings and extending it without any ceremony.
"Not gonna lie, the soldiers were rather uncomfortable about you. Especially with these sharp teeth... Obviously a carnivore, right?" Lt. Gears said, opening his mouth without even asking. He was using a medical glove that left a terrible taste on Seb's mouth, which reacted by using his right wing to push his arm away from him.
[color=008080]"Please, i mean no-" [/color] Seb tried to say, before one of the soldiers shot him with a tranquilizer round.
As he fell on the ground, he heard Lt. Gears screaming with the frightened soldier.
"YOU IDIOT! Why the fuck have you done this for? He was finally waking up!" 
"Fucking awesome..." Those were the last words Seb heard. 

A good deal of time later, Seb is awakened with a sharp sting, followed by anxiousness and a high cardiac frequency.
"Good, he is getting up. STAND THE FUCK DOWN YOU TWO, GOT IT?" Lt. Gears yelled to the two soldiers.
"Calm down, i gave you an adrenaline shot. That tranquilizer would knock you cold for at least an entire day, and the superiors want to execute you. So, i believe you understand the situation you're in right? Your life is on my hands." Lt. Gears said, with a sinister smile on his face.
"So start talking bird. Who are you, what are you, i want to know everything."

[color=008080]"Ok... first: what the flying fuck? Erm... sorry... no puns intended. I do understand my situation, and I'm very, very grateful for you guys saving me, but don't you think it was kinda overboard?"
"Taking that aside, thank you for the meat, the shelter and the protection. I can assure you, i mean no harm. My name is Seb Azizi,I'm from Cairo, Egypt. Before all this started i spent my time traveling around the world. My life was meaningless. There was nothing left to do, nothing to live for... I won't lie to you, all this that is happening made me feel alive again." [/color] Seb said with a smile.

[color=008080]"About what happened with me?" [/color] he asked, extending his wings. 
[color=008080]"I won't lie to you, i do like it. Strange isnt it? Something that would drive many insane or make them take their own lives literally saved me. I guess we are all a little bit psychotic, aren't we?"
"Long story short? Got on the airport, started feeling an agonizing pain, passed out inside the security cabin, got up drenched in my own blood. When i looked at myself i was already like this." [/color]
Seb answered to the man, like the whole thing wasn't that important. 

"Hm... tell you something... i like you kid. I've seen many things in my life and I'll tell you, i got surprised after the city was plunged into chaos in only a few hours, but i recognize a tough man when i see one. You've got some backbone. Lemme tell you a secret: I'm also excited about all this weird shit happening. Guess we are indeed a little psychotic." Lt. Gears said, laughing.

"Although some are very uncomfortable about your presence, i think we could use someone to be our eyes around the town, especially someone who can move around freely." he said, looking to Seb's wings

[color=008080]"I'm also very excited about my own body, but sadly i don't know how to fly yet... Maybe I'm the little bird that fell from the nest and broke his wings?"[/color] he said, smiling and beating his wings.
[color=008080]"Anyways, as you may have noted, i don't have any particular objective... I just want to live my new life to the fullest. Plus, Im also intrigued about all these new things."
[/color]

"Seb wasn't it? I have a proposal for you." Lt. Gears said to Seb. 

"You two, make me a favor, get a bed for him. He'll be staying here for a while." Lt. Gears dismissed the soldiers with a quick hand gesture.

"So, as i was talking... You stay here, I'll let you use the facility to practice until you can fly, once you do, you'll be our *ahem* I mean, [i]my[/i] eyes around the city. I'm very curious about the changed and the feral as well. I'll help you to heal and strengthen your body, but you'll i want to examine it as well. Don't worry, it won’t be anything invasive. Just basic things like X-Ray, blood tests etc. etc. So... Are you in?"

[color=008080]"Better than being out there without being able to fly, hungry... Anyways, if you treat me well, I'm in."[/color] Seb said, smiling.
[color=008080]"I never thought i would meet someone as crazy as me."[/color] he said extending his wings to him.
[color=008080]"It's not a "proper" handshake, but..."
[/color]

"Hah! dont worry, i took a liking to you boy. I suppose you are very tired. You can rest once the boys get you a bed. Don't worry about the others. I'm literally god here in the medical wing. No one will even touch you without my permission." Lt. Gears said, shaking Seb's hands.
"Once you wake up I'll show you the area where you'll be able to train. I'll try to convince my superiors to not shoot you on sight, so just keep up. Show them some results just like you showed back there with that feral and they'll have to agree with me. Only.... be careful... Not everyone is this kind to changed like i am. Just try to keep away from the other soldiers until they trust you, and try to not kill some of these idiots..."

[color=008080]"Lt. Gears, it was a pleasure to meet you. I'm really grateful for your assistance. Someday i'll repay you with a good bottle of wine or whiskey."[/color] Seb said, winking mischievously to Lt. Gears.
"HAHAH! I'll be looking forward to this day boy!" [/color]
