I sprinted out the doors of BL/ind, hand in hand with Insubordinate Sedative, I wasn't letting her out of my sight until we made it home safely to Zone six. Battery City to Zone six wasn't exactly a short trip. I had no idea how we were going to do it with no food, no water and no car. We ran about ten blocks before turning into an alley to decide what we were going to do.

"Well I saw a BLI food store about a block ago!" Sedative said.

"One problem. We don't exactly look like the average civilians." I responded.

"You don't, but I'm wearing their prison clothes, which by the looks of it is what everyone wears here, and we still have that BLI gun, so I think we could figure out a way to "convince" them to get us food." She said and winked at me, how cute. Sedative was so pretty. She had long brown hair, that came down to about her chest, with chocolate brown eyes and I was actually taller than her.

"Well, I guess that could work, but I would have to stay here, and uh… I don't want to leave you alone," I said, oh shoot she might find out, I mean, think I'm like in love with her, "Uh… because you might get hurt."

She smirked, oh shit, did she know? Then she replied, "Ghoul, I'll be fine. You can wait outside or something. It'll all work out. Then she wrapped her arms around my neck and my arms found her waist in perfect melody."

"Wait a second. What fucking time is it?" I asked.

"Well, let me just look at my imaginary watch," Sedative joked, with the corners of her lips turning up into a smile and she giggled. Man was that adorable., "Um, according to that sign across the street its 1 am. You think the grocery would be open this late?"

" Well, we won't know unless we check." I decided.

Sedative grabbed my arm and we walked towards the grocery store she had seen. It was… not open.

"Oh well. We've had a really long day. I think we should find somewhere to sleep then try tomorrow, but where?" Sedative suggested.

"I'll find someplace. Trust me. I know people." I was talking about Dr. Death defying's studio in Battery City. I'm sure he'd let us crash there.

"Ok. Let's go!" Sedative beamed.

We started to walk towards Dr. Death Defying's when I saw a bar and we stopped and no, not for beer, I spotted a Harley sitting out front and decided we needed it. I was better with cars, but a motorcycle shouldn't have been too much harder to hotwire. i took the wires in my hands and stared at them, hoping maybe they would do it all themselves.

"Need some help?" Sedative asked.

"What do you know about hotwiring motorcycles?" I asked.

"Lots. I also know cars, four wheelers, and tractors. My dad was a Mechanic and I helped out a lot." Sedative said.

"That's fucking awesome. I hope you know that." I said. It was… this girl was too good to be true.

Sedative hotwired the motorcycle and I drove us to Dr. Death Defying's, with her arms tight around my chest the whole time.

When we showed up to Dr. defying's he greeted us with a grin. I told him our circumstances and he said "Sure Ghoul, anytime. Stay for as long as you'd like."

"Can I ask you a question?" Sed asked.

"Sure." Dr. Death replied.

"Whats the date?" she questioned.

"Today is October 25, 2019."

"Holy Crap! The last day I remember before I was captured was November 25, 2018! My birthday. I've been in BLI way longer than I thought! Now, I know why the first few days seemed so hazy. I was waking up from a coma!" I screamed.

"Shit. That sucks! I'm so sorry Sedative!" I said, "Dr. Death, where should we go?"

"I have an extra room in the back, you two can go back there. I mean unless you want separate beds. " he said.

"Oh, we don't want to be a burden! One bed is fine. Come on, Ghoul. I'm tired," She blurted.

We walked to the bedroom and sat down on the bed.

"That's awful what BLI did to you, Rachel." I said.

She looked at me and smiled, "You used my real name!... But seriously enough about me, now that we're here, I wanna know more about you."

We both lied down and I pulled her into my arms. I looked at her and said, "I'm really not that interesting."

"Lies. You are probably about the most mysterious person I've ever met." She replied.

"Oh. Well, I'm flattered," I said and she giggled. "It's you I wanna know about!"

"No. Don't start this argument with me! I PROMISE you, you're getting nothing out of me, until you tell me your life story." She said.

"oh. Fine." I said.

I told her all about my sucky life before BL/ind had to go and ruin it. I went to stupid catholic school in Belleville, New Jersey. I grew up in a super dangerous town, to the point where, as a kid, you couldn't go outside at night. I was 19 when all this BLI shit happened. I had just joined My Chemical Romance with the guys who were my fellow killjoys now and I didn't want to live in BLI's idea of the perfect utopia.

"Are you kidding me? You are TOTALLY interesting!" I said.

"Whatever, your turn" I said.

"We'll have time for that later," she said, "For now I just want some sleep"

"Fuck you!" I joked.

"Not till I'm married!" she responded.

I looked at her and started cracking up.

"Goodnight, Frank!" she said.

I don't think I could've smiled bigger, "Goodnight, Sedative" and we nodded off to sleep.
