Ace sat quietly in his cage as he mindlessly stroked one of his large velvety black wings. He listened to the rants and howls of the other species. He couldn't help but almost pity them. Almost. It was their own faults for getting themselves in this predicament. Just like it was his own for being in his.
A sigh escaped Ace's lips as his wings ached to be spread open and stretched. He shuffled them around slightly as he rolled his aching shoulder blades. He grunted slightly as he shifted from a sitting position to one where his stomach was flat against the cold metal cage's floor. His feet crossed at the ankles and his head rested in the fold of his arm. Now he had a bit of room for his wings to spread slightly.

Cyler beat against her cage, clawing but realizing nothing was happening.

[Quitting :I]

Midnight lay in her cage, watching all of the other creatures with curiosity. Never in her life had she seen a human with bird wings, and arms. Her piercing eyes darted from one cage to the other, inspecting all of these strangers. She changed to half form, small enough to stretch her wings, because the cage had been made to fit her full form, yet with bars close enough together that nothing could get through them. Midnight yawned, stretching her arms over her head and her wings out to the sides. She sat down and and breathed a fireball into her hand, shaping the black fire into different forms.

[cryptids.]

Ace groaned slightly as he ached to go out into the sun's warm and bask in its glory. He slowly felt his mind regressing to the thoughts of when he fought to leave. How long had it been? He didn't know, surely it hadn't been to long because he hadn't been in the cage for to long either.... Had he...?
Ace's intense golden eyes peered above his arm to see a scientists milling about. He watched as they wrote on paper and typed on computers. 'How dull...' He thought to himself. 'What could they possibly learn about us by keeping us in cramped cages and keeping everyone on edge?' He mulled over the thought until he became bored with it and came up with a new thought.

[Quitting :I]

Midnight began absentmindedly changing the fire into various creatures that were trapped in this room. She looked with interest at the winged humans she created.

[Anomaly]

Cyler gave up and finally laid on the ground and curled up, whimpering. Why was she brought here in the first place, why something that was never meant to be in a cage in the first place. Cyler curled up tightly, ignoring everyone around her.

[Quitting :I]

Midnight went back to full form and laid down, tucking her tail under her head, so she looked like a neverending ring. She closed her eyes slightly.

[Anomaly]

Cyler jumped at the sound of a creak as the door opened.

Dresyn slowly walked over and checked the cages and looking in his folder.

[Quitting :I]

Midnight raised her head as the man walked in, she growled at him, not trusting any of the scientists.

[Anomaly]

Cyler whimpered backed up against the back of the cage.

Dresyn looked at the number on the cage and at Midnight. He brought out his keys and slowly unlocked her cage, bringing out a small collar. "Come here sweetheart. I'm not going to hurt you. Just some tests and you can get back to sleep."
