#1 Wake Up Call
Down in Sanctuary there was no sun or trees, only metal and machines to keep everyone alive. This was what the new Earth was like, nothing but seclusion from what use to be their home. It wasn't all bad though, there was plenty of food to go around and they did have nice little shops to buy new clothes at, but even with all that it still didn't fill the void. They might have been able to live forever, but what's the point if they couldn't live a normal life?
His clock read eight thirty in the morning, but his mind just kept telling him to sleep. After what his friend Azura had done to him the previous day he needed the rest. Although that didn't seem to be the case as his eyes began to open as he heard her calling his name.
"Malik, Malik wake up sleepy head." He heard.
He didn't want to get up so instead he simply ignored her and turned onto his side so he was facing the wall. He wasn't afraid to admit it, he was lazy at times. He was only nineteen and ever since he was fifteen he had always been working hard to make his own living in the shelter of Sanctuary.
"Alright but you made me do this…"
That wasn't a good sign. As soon as he turned around to see his red headed friend his body was doused with freezing water. Typical Azura, even when he wanted to rest and relax she had to be hard on him. How did they ever become friends?
"Ahh Azura really?! Couldn't you have woken me up like a normal human being?" he asked as he rang out his shirt.
"Oh would you have rather me use this?" she replied as she raised her mechanical fist.
Oi, if there was one thing he didn't want it was that fist against his skull.
"Alright fine, what did you want?" he asked as he rolled out of bed.
"You don't remember? You promised that today we would spar together. It's been almost a month so please could you do it for me?"
This was how it always went down. She would ask him to do something for or with her and if he said no she would resort to the puppy dog eyes then to blunt force and not with her human hand either. If he was honest he didn't feel like it but since he didn't feel like having his skull cracked open he really had no choice.
"Alright fine, but please for the love of god go easy with that arm of yours." He pleaded as he grabbed his jacket and half gloves.
"Righto now let's go before anyone else arrives!"
She didn't waste any time. As soon as he slipped his shoes on she grabbed his wrist and pulled him straight out of the room.
