Inside of the Warehouse

"SOMEBODY HELP ME!" Bray yelled as he ran into the room carrying his best friend's limp body. I couldn't be her. Could it? But no, she died. Martin told me she died. Come to think of it, Martin did lie a lot.

"What happened?" A young man around Bray's age ran through the crowd and down to Bray.

"I don't know. Lex found her out side."

"Here, let me take her. My tribe and I specialize in medicines." Bray reluctantly passed the lifeless body into the arms of the boy.

"Jess, get over here!" called the boy. "Yes Patch?" A tall blonde haired stumbled over to Patch and stared blankly into the air. "Help me with her. Let's get her to a bed and try to treat her." Patch and Jess carried Lola in a room down the hall and the crowd broke up.

Bray stood right where Lola left his arms and he just stared in the direction that she and her doctors went. Bray was having a tough time trying to grasp onto the fact that she was dead.

"So who is this girl Bray? Ebony couldn't tell me anything after she choked out the name 'Lola'" said Lex as he walked into the warehouse with bewildered Ebony behind him.

Bray turned around and sharply looked at Lex. Then Bray's stare softened and motioned for Lex and Ebony to sit on a beat up sofa in the corner.

"Lola and I have known each other since we were babies. We were best friends until – "Bray was cut off by Ebony.

"- until I came along." Ebony spat.

"Yes. Ebony was jealous and because of her Lola and I lost contact. Lola couldn't stand Ebony because Ebony made her life miserable." Bray shot a sideways glance at Ebony, hoping for a response. Ebony just stood up and walked down the hall and slammed her bedroom door behind her.

"I can see she is not taking it all too well." Chuckled Lex. What Bray and Lex didn't hear was Ebony's muffled "I'm so sorry" as she fell crying onto her bed.
