Roxys POV:
"The world has changed." Rachel's loud, roaring voice boomed in the small quiet room. Her hands were at her hips, giving the crowd a stern look of determinaion. Patton and Fanny stood at either side of her, crossing their arms and staring in the distance.
Yeah, no kidding, I thought. But at the same time I was also thinking, nice watch.
I scanned the rest of the room. There weren't a lot of people here. That wasn't surprising. Almost every adult, evil or not, had been killed. Some teeagers, kids, babies all went down with them. And it's all because of the 's what we like to call them. It's an old mobster term.
Heres the thing. The streetcleaners are like these weird people, you never actually see them though, who when the sun goes down, they come out and just start slaughtering people. Nobody knows why, or where they came from. They just came here. And all the TND and KND are her in this cramped little room, deciding what we should do next.
"Can we get to the point!" April demanded. She was next to me and it felt like she had just screamed in my ear. There was mumbling of agreement in the crowd.
Fanny crunched up her fists in frusteration. She stepped forward and yelled to the crowd, "Will ya all SHUT UP! Now just get into ya groups so we can leave ya to the streetcleaners!"
Groups? "Shit," I muttered, a bit too loudly.
April eyed me closely. "You don't have a group?" I shook my head. She smiled and grabbed my wrist, pulling me over to a corner of the room, where a group of operatives were sitting. "Good. Then I officialy make you a part of this group.
I studied the group. Wally, Kuki, Hoagie, Riley, his twin brother David, Emma, April, and now, me. I shrugged. I guess we could survive for a while.
Riley raised his eyebrows at April. "This is the second person wihou a group you got April. No more. Okay?"
"Who was the first?" I asked.
Riley gestured to Emma, who was sitting awkwardly next to David and Hoagie. "Emma. But I think we all didn't want this little cutie to die." He reached over and gave her shoulders a little shake. She twitched at the sudden shake, but then smiled sweetly.
"Just keep your eyeballs in your head." April growled, shoving me to the seat next to Kuki and Wally. I also mentally noted that Kuki's earings were really pretty. I wonder if she'll know if they suddenly went missng.
Emma grinned at Riley and April. It was so obvious that they liked eachother.
"So..." Emma, still beaming wondered aloud, "When's sundown?"
AN: Sorry it was so short, my computer and keyboard are having weird problems. So tell me what you think! Also, next chapter, should they train to survive, or faceoff against a streetcleaner? Let me know!
