Twisted Zoo (Yandere Various Twisted Wonderland)

Ending Three: Flying the Coop

WARNINGS: yandere themes

Note: For Tumblr, the mature version of the endings (the afterendings) will begin sometime after I finish all the normal endings.

Note 2: Tumblr was originally told that all the birds would have one ending, but I have decided to split them up into three endings (The Price of Beauty and Birds of a Feather alongside this one)

The sky was overcast today, your sunny mood not matching the dark gray, cloudy sky. As you approached the dome where the birds resided, you decided to check on the damage.

You still found it hard to believe the birds had made any damage to metal. But surely Mr. Crowley wouldn't lie to you.

There were guards stationed outside the area of the dome that had been damaged. A white tarp fluttered in the cold breeze, making it impossible for you to see the extent of what the birds had done.

The guards gave you a respectful nod as you passed by. Their eyes didn't seem to leave you, even as you walked farther and farther away. You shook off the thought, assuming you were imagining things after everything Mr. Crowley had said.

You opened the door to the dome and immediately noticed the difference in the air. Tense, as though something was coiling tightly around you, ready to snap. You looked towards the damage but another white tarp covered the entire area. The rest of the enclosure was the same- the marsh where the flamingos lived, the bright green grassy expanse for the peacocks, and the individual cages for the-

Where was Deuce, Ace, and Trey? The raven, parrot, and owl's cages were all empty, the doors ripped off their hinges. The bird houses were covered in deep scars, as if talons had scratched every inch of the wood.

And then you spotted them.

Ace gave you an enthusiastic wave, but Deuce and Trey remained serious, all three staring at you. Even from a distance, you could see their pupils were blown wide. Something was wrong with them.

With a gulp, you tried to force your legs to move, but you were frozen between approaching them and seeing what was wrong or fleeing. The trio began approaching you and your heart stopped in your chest altogether.

"Hey, (Y/n)," Ace said with a wide grin, his sharp eyes locked on you without blinking even once, "Did you come to check out the damage?"

You nodded despite your fear, feeling a shiver run up your spine as Trey and Deuce split off and began to circle you. Their wings were tucked tightly to their bodies, but occasionally twitched as though they wanted to spread them.

"Have you done any more damage?" you managed to ask.

Trey smiled pleasantly, "Would you believe us if we said 'no'?"

Deuce, who was normally quiet, spoke up, "No harm meant. We want more space."

"Space?" You looked at them curiously, trying to ignore the twisting in your stomach, "Why would you need more space?"

As soon as the question left your lips you felt stupid. Ace laughed, "Birds aren't meant to be in cages. Do you think we're supposed to stay in the little spaces Crowley and his goons made for us?"

"Isn't that what you agreed to?" you asked.

"We were happy with it... until now," Ace explained, "But we've grown restless ever since you arrived."

You glanced back at the enclosure door and instead was met with the sight of a smirking Trey. He had positioned himself between you and the only exit. Before you could truly panic, Deuce was wrenching your arms behind your back and clapping a hand over your mouth.
