* Hey Guys. This is my new fanfic! I just finished War Storm so I wanted a fresh start. I was not 100 percent happy with the ending. So I decided to continue it, but taking it where I want to.
Disclaimers
I do not own the characters of this fanfic. It's all Victoria Aveyard.
* Also this will have spoilers of war storm! So do not read if you don't want to be spoiled!
I wake up to the sounds of blue birds chirping. Looking out my window I see the beautiful colors of the sunrise. Red. Orange. Yellow.
Stretching my arms and legs after a good nights rest is one of the best things about the war being over. A couple months ago. I barely slept at all. It's definitely something I can get used to.
I glance towards the chair in the corner of my room. Looking at the training clothes laid out from last night, quickly reminds me that I have to get out of bed.
When I pull off the covers, the cool breeze of the beginning of winter hits my feet. Gone is the heat of the summer, that is for sure.
I quickly throw on my clothes, and head out into the dining room. A plain tee shirt, cargo pants, boots, and I add a jacket for now.
Everyone is already awake. As usual, I am the last one up.
I take my seat just as mom come in with plates of eggs and bacon. Along with my favorite, chocolate chip pancakes. Back in the stilts I would have never had them. But here in Montfort, we have access to everything. No restrictions on anything. Us reds are treated equal. It's like a dream, but real.
"Morning dear" mom chimes, placing a plate of good in front of me.
"Morning." I reply. "This looks great mom!"
"Thanks dear" She says placing a kiss on my four head. Before digging in I tie my long hair into a bun. I still haven't gotten used to the purple. I think it suits me though. It shows who I am. A electricon.
Tramy comes in the door of our apartment sorting through mail in his hands. "Here Mare," He says handing me a letter. "You've got mail."
Me and Cal have been writing to each other for the past couple weeks. Even though I decided that I needed time for myself, I miss him. And it's not like I'm flirting in paper form. I stick the letter under my leg so I can read it later.
Once Tramy is seated my mom pipes up "Everyone, me and Gisa have a very exiting anoucement!" She says beaming. "We have finally decided to open a store!" Everyone smiles. "We have already bought it and have it planned. I'm going to be in charge of the mangment and Gisa will make everything, obviously."
We all look to them and smile. "Cool" Kilorn says looking back to his food.
"We have been playing it for a while" Gisa says. This is her dream she has been waiting for this her entire life.
After everything that I have done, I'm glad it lead to this. This life, where we are safe, loved, and cared for. Plus we can have things like this. A business.
The rest of breakfast is filled with talk about random things. Bree's new girlfriend, Kilorn's new found fishing spot. And the political gossip that no matter where I go, I will never escape.
I look up to the wall clock and realize it's already 9:00. "Kilorn, we have to go." I say waving his attention to me. "Training." I continue, pushing out of my chair and walking to the door.l
He follows. "Hey I'm really tired for yesterday, so I'm just going to watch you and your bright colored hair friends trian." He says.
I give him a glare and then let it pass with a shrug. Not questioning why. "Sure."
"Also," I continue " "a" They they have names. And "b" they are called electrons." He just shrugs as we head out the door.
Before I stood up, I slid the letter into my pocket. At training I useually get a few minutes of rest to myself. So I can read it then.
