I don`t know if it`s really necessary, but here`s the disclaimer: I don`t
own the tribe.
I also don`t like writing long chapters.

Ken and Matt had been best friends since kindergarten. They always did everything together. After the virus they didn`t waste time and created a tribe. It was small at first- only Ken, Keli, Matt and neighbous`s twins Amanda and Andy. But it grew bigger as their friends joined. First problems started when the virus`s came back. They had already lost many members and were loosing Keli when they found out that there was antidote. Matt brought it to them, he was good then. Life went on happily until Chosen came. Ken decided to fight and took strongest ones with him. He told Matt to stay behind and look after Keli if something happened to him. But Matt and Keli wanted to see what happens. They sneaked along keeping out of sight. Hiding on the banks they saw the end of the battle and also the death of Ken. When the Chosen left they went down and took his body. Keli also saw somebody to take away bodys in the buggy that had crashed at the end of the fight, she decided to ignore that and concentrate on Ken. It wasn`t her business anyway. At the Ken`s grave she gave a promice she now had troubles to keep- never to cry again. And there she said for the first time the words that would haunt her till the rest of her life: "No tears....."
The "brothers" had turned Matt around. He used to be a nice guy, but now everybody had to talk about him with respect and always obey him. And same went with "brothers". But Matt still remembered his promice and Keli was given more rights than others. She apreciated this, since she didn`t have to obey "brothers" (at least that what she said Matt had told her) and she could speak whatever she thought. But she was still sad. The "brothers didn`t let her near Matt so she couldn`t talk sence into him. She sighed again. Making sure nobody was watching her, she grabbed her jacket and quietly slipped out of the door. Carefully sneaking away from the abandoned warehouse, that was their hidingplace, she moved to a small back alley. Looking around and making sure nobody was near, she jumped and grabbed the edge of a hidden vent. She climbed up and went to the end of the vent and reached a room- her special place, she had never told anyone about, not even Ken. It was probably a office before. It had been a mess but she had cleaned it and even brought here a carpet. She looked around and her eyes stopped on an old calendar she had left on the wall cause it had a nice picture. The calendar reminded her last week. It was her 17th birthday then. Others in the tribe had quietly congratulated her and Matt.... Well, atleast he remembered- Keli had recieved from him a piece of paper with "Happy birthday" written on it. Thinking of that made her wanna cry again. "No tears, no tears..."Keli looked down and saw the sun shining on the carpet, she smiled. Laying down on the carpet she relaxed and sunk onto dreams. CRASH!
Keli jumped up and looked at the door. Someone was trying to get in. CRASH! She smiled. Not only had she locked the door, but she had also brought all the tables she could into this room and put against the door. No way anyone could get to this room. "This door is stuck" she heard a voice saying behind the door. "Leave it then, if it`s stuck then nobody could get into there" another voice said. Keli sighed in relief. She was safe. "But for how long? " she thought for herself. What if they come back and manage to push the door open. What if they find the window and come through that. Deciding not to stay there she went back to the vent. She reached to the end of the went and was about to climb down, when she saw something. "Oh, sh!t" she thought.
