AN: Hey, how's it going bros? I'm doing um…okay, I guess LOL XD I finally got my schedule redone and now I have 1st period study hall (which is awesome). I didn't have any study halls before the change so…I decided to drop out a class (which was building traits). I'm kinda sad TBH, I've been wanting this class for a while but my academics comes first and I felt like I'm overdoing myself…that's pretty much it. But hey, at least I can work on my fic, right? Yes :3 So this story isn't so cute and fluffy like my last one. This one may have violence in it…with a lot of blood…man I love stuff like this. All dem awesome fights and interrogation scenes and what-not. Do you bros remember that one scene in TLOU where Joel brutally tortures that one guy to get answers where Ellie was? That scene was my favorite (I'm into dark things XD). Well, you bros know Noah North (that guy that played Nate from Uncharted and…David) He was that guy being stabbed and tortured by Joel. So now every time I watch that scene, I see David in that chair, being slaughtered in a slow, painful death…what is wrong with me? IDK :P But there will be violence in it, coming from Joel. But anyway, here's my story.

Chapter 1: The Boy

It was a rainy day. It has been pouring down over the settlement for the last couple day. There was nothing to do on days like this, only to stay inside and find something to entertain yourself in the time being. She just got done rereading the comic book series, Savage Starlight. She groans out as she sat up from her bed, looking down at her comic and tosses it on the floor.

"Man, I'm so bored. I tired of sitting down on my ass all day by myself…"

She left out a huff as she ran her hand through her reddish-brown hair.

"Maybe the guys are at the mess hall. I'll chill with them for a bit."

She got up from her bed and went down the stairs into the living room. Like she had expected, Joel wasn't here. He's still on guard duty since 10 and he won't be back until late. She walked by the door and picks up her black converse. She got on the floor to put them on each foot, tying them up as well. She got up and then left the house.

The rain pours harder and harder as it goes on. Ellie had to make a run for it so she won't get soaking wet. She doesn't give a damn if there's mud all over her jeans and sneakers; she just wants to get out of the rain.

She was finally at the mess hall. She just barged through the doors, not caring if it got any attention. Many eyes were staring at her for a second but then continue eating their lunch. She over on the far corner and see her friends, chatting away. She sighs and walks over to them. Kylee was the first one to notice her coming over. She covers her mouth quickly, trying to hold in her laughter.

"So, Ellie", Kylee states, "Did you enjoy your shower?"

More chuckles immerge from the table. Ellie rolls her eyes and flicks her off. She shoos Dallace away to move down a seat so she can sit by Kylee.

"Fuck you", she said, "See how you like it being soaking wet and covered in mud."

"Oh, I'm digging the look", Cody teases her, "It just matches with your personality, being all dirty and all."

Ellie scowls playfully at him. "You…can go fuck yourself." She looks over at Dallace and grins. "And you can watch."

Kylee's and Cody's jaw drops, wide open but then both of them starts to laugh out loud. Dallace, on the other hand, was now wide-eyed and shocked. He went to hide his face as he feels himself blushing a bit.

"Oh my god!" Ellie says while laughing, "You would actually watch him do that?!"

"No!" Dallace exclaims. "Why would I even do that?" He scuffs and crosses his arms together, trying to look cool and not act like a wimp. "That's just gay."

"So why are you blushing then?" Cody smirks.

He starts to get a bit tense. "I don't know! I just am!" He bit the inside of his cheek.

"Dude, it's okay if you're gay", Cody said, "No one's judging."

Dallace looks up at Cody with dark eyes. "It's not called being gay…"

"It's called being fabulous!" Ellie exclaims.

She threw her arms up in the air to be dramatic. Everyone at the table laughs out loud. They don't even care if they're being watched; they're just having a good time.

"Okay, okay", Dallace chuckles, "You got me there…but I'm still not gay!"

"Sure you're not", Ellie giggles. "You're like the most fabulous, gayest person I've ever met!"

Dallace wasn't amused at all. "I'm done!" He blurts out as he stands up and walks away from the table. "Screw you guys, I'm going home!" He walks out of the mess hall and ran home, through the heavy rain.

Ellie looks back at Kylee. "Don't worry about him. He'll get over it." She wraps her arm around Ellie's shoulder and pulls her closer. "He always does." She smirks at her. Ellie rolls her eyes before moving away.

Ellie felt her stomach growl; she places a hand on her belly. "I'm gonna go to get something to munch on." She gets up and pushes her chair in. "I'll be right back."

"We'll be here!" Cody calls out as she walks away.

By the time Ellie got there, she really didn't see anything appetizing to her. The only thing she sees is a large red apple and crackers. So she grabs them and wraps it up in a napkin as an alternate plate. Once she was satisfied, she walks back at the table.

"So, you're new here, right?" A voice calls out to Ellie.

She stops and turns around; she sees a boy. The boy had dirty blond hair and blue eyes. He was a couple inches taller than her. He looks kind of scrawny but he's well-built, a lot of muscle built in his arms and torso. The boy is about 16, maybe 17.

"Um…yeah", Ellie replies, "I've only been here for like 2 week, so I guess you can call me new."

The boy chuckles a bit and nods at her. "My name's Jake." He extends his hand out to shake her hand. "Yours?"

She looks down at his hand; his large hand was covered in a lot of cuts and was dirty. But she didn't mind. She was a bit hesitant at first but then reluctantly shook it.

"Ellie."

"Ellie", he repeated, soaking in with new information, "That's a pretty name, not to bad yourself."

Ellie kind of blushed and ran a hand through her hair. "I wouldn't say pretty, but…"

"Ellie!" A voice screams out.

She turned around and sees Kylee calling out to her, making a quick gesture to come over there, while Cody looked at her.

She turns away and looks back at Jake.

"Well I better get going, gotta get to the friends, you know?"

Jake just stood there, making a quick glance over to her friends. He glares at her new friends for a while, mainly at Kylee. His glare was dark, like evil filled up his eyes, which makes Ellie concern.

"Are you okay?" She questions, raising her eyebrow at him.

He snaps out of the glare and looks back at her.

"Yeah", he murmurs, "I better get back with the guys anyway."

She nods at him in response. She got a better hold of her apple and crackers in the napkin before heading back to her friends.

"Nice talking to you, Jake."

When she turns away, Jake's nose flares, trying to hold his anger because his conversation got cut short. Jake makes a dark, cold stare one last time at Kylee before he left the mess hall.

Ellie made it back to the table and slides out her chair to sit back down.

"Ellie, not to sound like an asshole or anything, but stay away from him."

Kylee looks up at her with a concern, serious look in her brown eyes. Ellie just raise her eyebrow at her as she was sitting down.

"Why?" She questions as she looked back where she'd previously met Jake. "I don't see a problem with him. He's okay."

"Oh no, Ellie", Kylee said as she shook her head, "He may seem nice at first but…"

"But what?"

"He…he can be…violent."

Ellie leans into her with this new information. "How so?"

"You met my older sister Holly, right?"

Ellie nods in response.

"Before you came here, he was constantly making moves on her, trying to charm her, and be like his girlfriend or whatever. She rejects his offer multiple times. He wasn't happy at all."

She looks away from her, lost in thought for what he'd done to her, biting her cheek before continuing.

"He kept stalking her, like a creep he already is. For the past 2 weeks, everywhere she'd turn, she sees him peaking over her with dark eyes and shows his anger occasionally. Then it got worse. Holly had enough of his bullshit and told him to fuck off and leave her be."

A long pause has emerged. It was a struggle for Kylee talking about her sister. She remembered it like it was yesterday.

"Then…he got mad, really pissed off. He latches his anger out on her, punching and kicking her multiple times. She was barely conscious by the time he was done with her. She came home, unrecognizable. I couldn't tell that was her at all, to be honest. Then my mom started crying her eyes out, saying 'who did this to you?!' She didn't say anything, all upset and traumatized and barely conscious. She broke down as well and hugged her."

Ellie was shocked. From a guy she'd met recently turned out to be a fucking monster, all just because he wanted her for himself.

"I knew it was him", Kylee said with vemon in her voice, "I was gonna fucking kill him. Just tie him up, being tortured to death."

"Well, what happened after that?" Ellie questions.

"Oh nothing happened, Tommy just told him to work more shifts, without any breaks, and been constantly supervised by an adult. That was it!"

Kylee slams down her fist on the table in so much anger. Her anger was later turned into tears and broke down.

Ellie was left jaw-dropped. She knew Tommy personally, only because he was Joel's brother, but she couldn't believe that Tommy would do something like that. It made her furious as well. She notices Cody reaching out to Kylee and rubs her back in comfort.

"Ellie", Kylee sniffles. She looks up at her with deep brown, watery eyes. "Promise me to stay away from Jake. I don't ever want him to hurt you. I don't know if I could see that after Holly…"

"I promise", Ellie said. "I'll stay away from him."

Kylee tries to give her the best smile but it wasn't much. She looks away and the three friends sat quietly at the table.

AN: Bros...this story was originally a oneshot but, you know, it isn't. Ha, I thought I could make it into one but its's taking forever. The 1st AN I wrote about this was like from...end of August. I started working on it since the first day of school and it's a month and half of not working on it and then putting it up. That's pathetic LOL XD In other words, the first AN is old...like...dinosaur old :P But all in seriousness, I'll make this into 3 or 4 chapters (most likely 3), just like I did with Broken Dreams. Oh, and if you're a true bro (like me :3), you noticed one part of the chapter where Ellie's like 'It's not called being gay, it's called being fabulous'...yeah, I had to do it :3 cuz...yolo, it's PewDiePie. Can't deny the Pewds ;) He's like...my life. I watch him everyday (even his old vids) I really love the BroKen Podcast, there's something cool about Pewds and Ken colaborating and talking about different topics for an hour, with guess (Cry, Minx, Markiplier). I listened to all of them; they're fucking great :D Ah...and to da fangurls freaking out about Joel and be like 'Where is he?! I want the bearded hot dad!' LMAO XD Calm you tits ladies (and guys :3) He'll be in the next chapter. I'm done with chapter 2, I can just uploaded tomorrow during 1st period study hall (or maybe ton*ight) ;) Well, imma gonna go bros...and I talk to you later...BYE! *brofist
