A/N: I know this is a really short chapter, I'll probably be adding more in a week or so. I just got this idea and wrote it while I was really bored. I hope you like it. Please R/R. No flames, comments, criticism and advice I take. But no flames.
D/C: I own nothing
What If?
"It's official! They're leaving today!" Ben shouted as he ran down the stairs getting ready to throw the Emberites out of town for good.
"At least think it over Ben, one more week" Mary cried desperately jogging to keep up with Ben. If she didn't stop Ben from kicking out the people of Ember it would be on her conscience forever.
"We voted Mary, I can't let these savages ruin our town. Not when we're on the edge of prosperity. And with that Ben shoved open the doors of the city hall. Walking down to the Pioneer he saw that the Emberites (or savages as he liked to call them in his head) were already packed and ready to leave except for the few rebellious ones who still thought there was going to be a war. "Alright," he shouted over the noise "You have 20 minutes to get out of this town. We have provided trucks full of supplies like tents and food. They will keep you from starving until you can build your own town" A small girl was standing among the crowd whispering to her friend Doon and her little sister Poppy.
"They can't just force out like this," she said "It's not right, especially making us leave when it's so cold. We're all going to die!" She shouted the last part out so loud that everyone turned their heads. "Oops"
"EVERYONE OUT" Ben shouted so loud that some of the glass in the Pioneer cracked. There were a giggles but for the most part the Emberites began dutifully trudging out to face their deaths. A little boy named Kenny was watching as they left.
"They'll be back," he said "I'm sure of it."
