Maximum Ride Fan-Fic

Pant, pant.
Come on, keep running! I thought to myself. I was so close...there! Right there, I could see the break in the trees. I forced myself to run harder, even though my legs were screaming for a break, just as I heard the most chilling sound I can imagine-a wolf's hunting howl, the kind that meant it's caught my scent.
Erasers, I thought, and my heart froze for the barest fraction of a second as a gut-wrenching terror ripped through me-then it galloped like a jackrabbit, and I was sprinting to the clearing, loosening my wings slightly as I went, preparing for take-off.
The instant I was clear of the trees, I snapped my wings out and jumped-and went up, up, up. The only thing supporting me now was my wings, my beautiful wings that were white peppered with brownish flecks.
I flapped, and rose faster, zooming away, breathing in the wonderfully cool, clean air. My nose was free for once of the sting of anisthetic, and I was soaring away from my he!!hole prison, free without the fear or Erasers shooting me down(yes, I said shooting, and yes, I mean that literally; they shot at me until I landed, then forced me into that wretched crate).
I was zooming along and after a few minutes, I spun around so I was hovering, facing them, and I stuck my tongue out. So mature, right? But I couldn't resist. Then I laughed and turned around, zipping along-directly into a tree.
"(insert swearword of your choice here)!" I shrieked as I dropped a few feet. Come on-I mean, I'm dead klutzy on my feet, but usually I was graceful in the air. I'm not stupid-they actually educated me at the school. But I was known well for my klutziness-it made me a hazard.
In fact, they'd been preparing to experiment on me when I'd escaped, trying to fix me...
_____________Flashback
"All right Olive, honey, come on. You need to come out now." The scientist was peering in, the door wide open, while I cringed against the back wall, hissing at him.
"Get away from me!" I snarled, but my voice wasn't as venemous as I'd like. Instead, it was exactly the way I felt: dead tired, and extremely weary. I was dead tired because they'd been running me ragged, pushing me to the very limit, and I was close to snapping.
Jeb sighed. "Fine-be like that." He leaned back, and I saw my chance: I lunged forward, kicking the door with all my strength. Jeb yanked his hand back, howling with pain, as I burst out and jumped through the window. Immediately, alarms sounded, calling Erasers(who, in case you don't know, are wolf-kid mutants).
I extended my wings as I fell, softening the impact, and then I was running as fast as I could, my breath tearing in my lungs and my mind crystal-clear from the adrenaline-rush.
I was at the woods in a minute, and then I was pushing myself harder, desparate to get away. I ran in dead silence for maybe five minutes, alarms wailing behind me, the only sounds my ragged breathing, the soft impact of my feet as I ran, and the forest life around me. That was when I saw the light ahead and-well, you know what happened from there.
_________End Flashback
But now-I was free! I may have nowhere to go, but at least I was out of there! Anything was better than that place.
Actually...I had heard a couple of scientists discussing me the other day, while I had pretended to sleep. They'd been talking about some other mutants-avian kids, who had wings like me. They'd seemed especially interested in the leader, some guy named Max. Maximum Ride.
