A/N: This takes place in the tribe season 1. This is primarily about the O.C.'s Many story lines and relationships from the show will be changed in this story as well as gaps in time line's. This will not go episode by episode and there will be non existent situations. This is my first Tribe fan fic. Please enjoy.

In the beginning after the virus hit, after Amber's father and step-mother died from the virus, her and her half-brother Prometheus and longtime friends Dal and Robert were on their own. After two days of wandering from their small town, they stopped a few miles outside of the city to rest. Dal fell asleep with his head on Ambers shoulder. Prometheus and Robert remained awake to watch for any attacks.

"What is it exactly we're watching for?" Robert asked.

"Somewhere new to call home. Where there may be other misfits or orphans like us," Prometheus replied.

Suddenly a group of kids with shaved heads, wearing masks with teeth and silver face paint surrounded them. They brandished weapons at them. Prometheus and Robert stood strong ready to fight.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you!" Someone behind them said.

They looked up and the shaved headed hooligans had not only surrounded the group, they also had Amber and Dal. Their obvious leader walked up and started to look Amber over. He reached out to caress her as she struggled to fight him off. When one of the hooligans behind Prometheus reached out for him, he grabbed them by the arm and flipped him over his shoulder and to the ground. Prometheus and Rob then picked him up and hurled him into the leader. Knocking him and several others to the ground. Amber, Dal included were also knocked down.

The leader stood up and screamed, "Demon Dogs!" They regrouped, gathered up and got ready to charge. Prometheus and Robert helped Amber and Dal get up and then instructed them to take the roller blade's off of two of the knocked out Demon Dogs. As the Demon Dogs began to rush the small group, Everyone heard a war cry from the other direction. Both groups looked over to the nearby road to see a police car with a pale eyed male and his mistress standing in it.

"Oh God no! Amber run! It's the Locos!" Prometheus shouted.

Amber stood stunned. Prometheus shouted at her again to go. Suddenly the Demon Dogs rushed the Locos at the same time the Locos rushed them. Before Prometheus and Robert knew it, a battle ensued and they were unfortunately caught up in it. The friends rushed two of the Locos and took them to the ground. Prometheus took the night sticks from the one of them. He spun them in his fists and began to use them against every enemy that squared off with him. Robert picked up a staff. He started following in suit with Prometheus. They made their way near the police car. Prometheus saw a guy with pale eyes, dreadlocks and a captain's hat with goggles on it. He knew it was Zoot and he realized that Zoot had exited the cruiser and was charging at him. Prometheus swung both of the nightsticks and hit him in the face and in back of the head. Suddenly the battle stopped and everyone went quiet as the Demon Dogs ran away. Prometheus stood over Zoot while breathing hard in fear.

Zoot looked up and had the Locos grab both of them. Prometheus looked around and couldn't see Amber. When he looked for her again, he was suddenly face to face with Zoot. Zoot was bleeding from the mouth and gripping the back of his head while growling angrily.

"Bring it on big man!" Prometheus shouted as Zoot stared him in the face.

(Again, my first fan fic for my favorite show in the world. Please review)
