Author's note: As someone once said, "I'm making fucking mac & cheese, and nobody can stop me!" But replace mac & cheese with aus.

"Hey wake up dumbass." 

Four opened his eyes to see Three in front of him. 

Three chuckled. "There we go... How are you feeling? Better? You did take a nasty fall yesterday." 

Four got up, the wings on his back twitched. "Yeah, I'm doing better." He stretched. "I just wish we weren't stuck here."

Three and Four were once free avians. But, one day they were captured. They've been in here since they were young and don't even remember their real names.

Four is a blue jay. He seemed to be the scientists favorite to "play" with for some reason.

Three is a starling. He had jet black wings, with flecks of purple.

But they weren't they only ones here.

There was also Ninety-six and his brother X, two parrot avians. Their wings were green and yellow. X's seemed to have hints of blue in his.

There was also Fm, a cardinal. He couldn't really fly since his right wing was deformed. He had a stuffed penguin that one of the scientist's children had given him. They tried to take it away but would end up with claw marks all over them, so they let him keep it.

And finally, there was the newest edition, an egg that the scientists had found. Something tells Four that they had given it to Three and Four since they were the only couple.

Three became attached to the egg and hasn't left its side since it got here, only leaving it for food and to check up on Four.

Like Three said, Four fell yesterday, he tried to escape the lab that they were in only to hit glass. He hates that he has a hard time seeing glass.

Three nuzzled Four, letting out a coo. They stay like that for a moment. "I'll going back to check on the egg. Okay?" Three asked.

Four gave him a nod, and he was off.

Three laid down in the nest, the egg was still there. He touched it, still warm.

Three remembered the scientists' dismay when they saw that he and Four had become a couple, Three's only guess is that there are more avians here, female avians.  And the scientists were going to pair them up to be mates.

It made Three's blood boil. Sometimes, he wished he had sharp claws like Fm sometimes. That way, he could claw them up to shreds.

They deserve it, after all.

Three looked down at the egg. "Don't worry, little one." He said softly. "I'll protect you."
