Thank you PhoenixLordess for your comment. It stays relevantly all on the same time line. There may be small time skips but not in years away. They will stay about the same age for this story.
Thank you Mariah for your comment. Quinn already has done that, the police in the city are shit and horrible as they don't give a crap to anything. That's why the city is so rundown and the streets are unsafe all the time.
After a long day of barely anything happening and it was the end of my shift, I walk the soon-to-be dark streets. A noise of a plane started to ring out, catching my attention. Looking up to see a F-16 Fighting Falcon flying around the city, as if scanning for something.
Planes always caught my attention, when I could get a book, that's one of them that I would get. My favorite kinds of planes are the jets.
Taking the few moments to watch it do its thing before it did a twirl, like it knew I was watching it, and sped up out of sight. Sighing dreamy, I pad my way back to the Orphanage.
Walking into the place the smell of spaghetti drifted into the air. That means that Ash has cooked up dinner. He is the best cook you have ever imagined, even though he lives here. Rushing into the kitchen so I could get some spaghetti, I see many kids lined up to get a plate. Getting in line to wait my turn, I quickly get my share before going back to my room. The others were in the room talking to each before they notice me.
"Hey Gabby!" Kevin greeted with a mouth full. Rolling my eyes at him, I plop my butt down where Charlie and Ruby made room for me.
"So how was everyone's day?" Piper questioned with her German accent drifting in. Everyone, except me, started to talk about their day at the same time. My mind drifted into dream land about the jet I saw earlier. Reeling myself out to listen to Ruby start to talk about her walk to the thrift shop downtown and what she found. Next Charlie talked about her experience of people doing weird crap at the laundry mat. After that Kevin talked about going to Hobbytown, a store that sells high-priced remote control vehicles. Then Piper told us about her boring day of cleaning our room as she is a clean freak.
"Hey, Gabby, what about you?" Charlie brought me to speak. A small smile played my lips and I shrunk my head down between my shoulder to hid my smile. Charlie pokes my should multiple times to convince me to speak. Raising my head back I tell them what saw at Q's.
"Well," I drew out the l's," it started as any normal day, the boys making the dough for the pizza and whatnot. It's about noonish when two army men showed up, in uniform but the weird part was that they came from a normal truck. They walked up to the counter, where I was working for the moment as Jermey had to use the restroom, and asked if they could see a adult. I gave them a bitch face before heading to the back to get Quinn. We both arrive back to the main room and the army men, which I saw their name tags, Lennox and Epps ask Quinn if he has seen any suspicious vehicles around. That's weird to ask a person that. Well Quinn gave his answer, a no, like everyone else, including me."
"The truck they had was a pumped up black GMC truck, which is weird, if they were really army men then shouldn't they be driving something else more camouflage Like come on! With that engine being so loud, it could be easily be heard from miles away. And black really, maybe be good night operations but during the day, you go to be kidding." Yep I'm ranting now.
"Also on the walk home something weird happened-"
"You were adducted by aliens!" Kevin interrupted with his stupidity. Like I said before, 5 year old!
"No! That doesn't ev- I would even be here!" I exasperated. He gives a hard look before opening his big trap of a mouth.
"Maybe they didn't want you," He teases. Giving him the bitch face, I continue my story before I was rudely interrupted.
"Anyway, on the walk home, a jet flew around the city for a few moments before doing a couple of tricks and flying out sight." Everyone was giving me a confused look, trying to piece the information together. We do have our common sense. Like, army men going into a old fast-food restaurant just to ask if they saw anything suspicious then leave in totally non suspicious truck. Then later on see a jet, a jet, flew over head with no reason to and leave. Something weird is going on and not using our common sense we decide to try and figure out what's going on.
We talk more about what I saw today and before we knew it, it was 10. The usual time we go to bed.
Being the nice person I am, I take everyone's plate to the kitchen and wash them. While at the sink clean and placing them on the drying rack, something caught my eye in the window. Two bright blue lights hung in the air, thinking it was something behind me, I glance behind me to see noting. Peering back in front of me, the lights were gone. Confused on the subject, I store it in my brain to talk about it tomorrow with my roommates.
After everything was put up and done, I go off to bed with my clothes from today, not giving a single crap.
"Good night," Charlie started.
"Good night." Piper with her German accent showing up.
"Gute Nacht," I spoke in German, I know some of my origins.
"Good night," Ruby's Russian accent showing up in her words.
"Good night!" Kevin cheered and the room became silent again. Charlie and Kevin are the only 'normal' ones in the room here. With that my eyes grew heavy and I drifted off into sleep.
Sorry for not updating in awhile. You know how life can be. Anyway, as you have seen, I have put both of my stories on hold/ slow updates. But not to worry I try my best to update all that can and get back on the horse.
Let the wolf howl!-
