Chapter 12

12 FLY! 'Get back here, you disgusting pigeons!' Reginald Grimster swept the poo off his face with his hand. His face went from red to purple as he picked up a broken lever and charged at us. 'Time to go!' Fienne shrieked at us. The

other Humans had obviously decided the same thing, as they ran for the door and threw it open. We all rushed after them. Dave flapped as hard as he could, but couldn't stay in flight for long because of his bad wing. Reginald Grimster grabbed at him, yanking him away from us. Fienne dived down and beaked the evil Human right between the eyes. 'That's for Agent Kottur!' he yelled.

Reginald Grimster howled, clutching his plucked eyebrows and accidentally lobbing Dave over his head. Fienne caught Dave between his legs and dashed at the door. 'COME BACK HERE!' Reginald Grimster snarled, running after us. 'NO PIGEON GETS THE BETTER OF REGINALD GRIMSTER!' Pigeons tore down the corridor, racing towards the opening lift doors. Feathered bodies tumbled in, filling the space. Fienne soared high and flung Dave in after the others, and grabbing my leg, pulled me in after him. 'Hit the down button!' Dave screeched at the pigeon next to the lift controls.

'Which one is the down button?!' the pigeon squawked back. 'Hit anything!' Swan cried. Every number on the panel lit up as pigeons headbutted whatever button they could. The doors started to close. Reginald Grimster dived at the lift. The doors slammed shut just as Reginald Grimster's face thudded against the metal and the lift Slowly jerked into action. 'We made it!' Dave cried.

'Not quite,' Fienne said, pointing at a tiny yellow shoulder umbrella stuck between the doors. 'Noooo!' Reginald Grimster yelled as the lift moved, dragging him down. 'Ow!' he groaned as he thudded against the floor on the other side of the doors. Fienne held down a button and the lift started to judder down again. 'Not again,' Reginald Grimster moaned. 'Ouch,' he cried as he was pulled flat against the floor. The tiny umbrella tore free, leaving Reginald Grimster on the first floor, and the lift took us down to the ground floor. The doors slid open and we swooped out into the supermarket.
