The apology
Clay had hurriedly walked off after the people from earlier stumbled around to thank her , whispering words she could not make out before running away .They had not even been able to look her in the eye and had acted instead like she was one of the Steels .She had just watched them struggle till they finally ran off , all the while wondering what they were doing here when they were both even worse off than Jared .What were they doing playing a game like this when they could not even look at a fellow player in the eyes without stammering ?She headed back the way they had come first , trudging slowly to get all the numbness in the different part of her body out as she walked.She felt like someone had literally tried to pound on her and not in a good,massage kind of way.She was thinking of how awesome a massage would be right about now when she heard the others getting closer and discussing as they walked behind her .She was walking slowly so they easily caught up with her and jo

Slime dunk
Clay emptied the sack on the floor for everyone to see the content too.It had everything .Well not everything in the sense of the word but everything that Clay had suspected and slightly hoped for when she had heard that they should expect snacks .There were Doritos , Cheetos of the best flaming hot category , Funyuns , Pringles , Cheez - its , Lay's chips , Ritz crackers , Reese's peanut butter cups and several other packages that Clay was not even remotely familiar with , some she had just seen and had never eaten .Strangely elated, She bent down and scooped several packs , throwing them in the air and on the cowards that stood by her side and had still refused to open their eyes .They all opened their eyes as soon as they were hit , their eyes flew over everything that was laid down and they immediately joined Clay and began to jump around with her .Saul was scooping it ,throwing it in the air and letting it rain over them as he screamed some celebratory phrases that Clay had

Bad by day
He pushed away the branches that blocked his path , changing their shapes from the pressure he applied on them as he moved them out of his face as he walked nearer and nearer to them . Finally , he stopped walking a few feet to them and just stared at them . They all gulped collectively at his intimidating stare and his equally intimidating and massive body , he looked even scarier in the day and without a screaming crowd of shadows around him . Clay was sure that if this much of him had been visible last night , she would not have jumped at the chance to throw her life away and neither would June . Jared had better send a message of thanks to the cloak of darkness because that was why he was still alive . Clay had no idea why he was here but at least they had one less question , they did not have to worry about who had taken out the flags and displaced them to mislead them . June suddenly broke out from the circle they had unconsciously formed around each other and pushed the sa

Forgotten memories
JADEJade had been unable to do anything since Clay left.She had laid in a particular spot for hours now and had been drifting in and out of sleep as she went through a cycle of worrying over her sister , hating her sister , getting mad at her sister, cussing her sister and then worrying about her all over again.As this cycle went on, she would sometimes fall asleep halfway through a cycle of at the end of a cycle , wake up and pick up exactly where she had left off.She was in the process of cussing out her sister for leaving her without saying even a goodbye when she fell asleep.She opened her eyes later and it was morning,she rolled around and eventually sat up when she smelled pancakes, she left her bed sleepy eyed as she headed to the kitchen , following the smell of the pancakes .She stopped at the entrance of the kitchen and bent to wipe her eyes properly.When she finished wiping her eyes , she raised her head again and was met with the same sight , she had not just been i

Hierarchy
" Fuc...fuvking..Bas...bastard ", June cursed at Clay.She had been at it since they had began their invigorating short run.They sat outside the church catching their breaths after their short warm up , it was quite obvious that they all needed some exercise because they were all breathing harder than normal.However, the lack of breath did not stop June , she still continued to curse out Clay even as she struggled for air, barely gasping out most of her insults .She did not sit like the others and was instead slumped over the stair railings as she also struggled to catch her breath ." W... why the fuck would you make so much noise and then hightail it ? Did you not think that maybe we were all not in the same exercise - y mood that you were in ? ",She questioned as she glared at Clay from her spot on the stairs .Jared and Saul nodded in agreement to June's line of questioning , they were holding on to each other's clothes for support as they sat at the edge of the stairs and took

The discovery
They had all taken their time to eat, Eating slowky as they thought about their situation,they had even been silent as they all ate , leaving only the sounds of the chewing of the loud snacks in the air .After their meal , they all parted ways in an equally quiet fashion as they all began to go to different parts of the church to relax .Saul said something about how he had to rest from all of the commotion of the morning while Jared wanted to get himself cleaned up and wandered off to find a bathroom that he could use .The thought of bathing and washing all of the sweat and grime away immediately had the girls excited , they both wanted to have that bath at once.However , there was only one available bathroom with running water , so June and Clay began to argue on who got to use it first after Jared .Jared tried to get them to stop arguing at first and eventually left them when they began to overwhelm him.They decided to stop arguing like the grown and matured women that they we

Rumble
Clay left Jared in the room to check the bathroom without anyone around her .She might not hzce looked it but Clay was very shy when it came to things like this and was extremely uncomfortable even if it was girls that she had to show her body too,so she avoided situations that could lead to that with all of her might .She needed to wash her face and her hair at least ,she had also taken a bottled water for just in case she found toothpaste .Her parents would turn in their graves if they found out that she had not brushed in two days and would probably not brush till the end of the next couple of days, thinking about that alone had her grimacing but oral hygiene was really the worst of her worries right now.Not washing any part of her body for seven days sounded too scary in general but not as scary as dying within seven days .She had realized a little after she had left her room that she had never asked where this bathroom that had water was located and now she had no idea how t

Tree climbing
Clay closed her eyes and listened to the rumblings closer.Her eyes flew open almost immediately,eyes closed they sounded even more terrible .She turned to Saul,her fear luminescent in her eyes." Get the things you need and go outside now !! ", Clay yelled out .Clay ran out of Saul's room and down the hallway .It would be too bad if the steel launched an RPG at the church , not only would the church's beauty be lost , they might not make it out alive if they were knocked down by stones this old and strong .The church was built in a way to ward off attacks,if they were still inside when they were struck,they would not make it out.Clay ran down the stairs and past the pews , she jumped on to the pulpit and slid down to the door that led to her room , she aggressively pushed the door open and walked in.Jared stood half naked in the middle of the room , he whirled around when Clay came in, eyes wild and hands clasped ." Do you hear that ? What is it? It sounds like growls and it i

June,baby.
JUNEAfter their game had determined the order in which they would use the bathroom,June had patiently waited for her turn.June was supposed to use the bathroom after Jared but as soon as she had been left alone with the others going about their personal businesses , her thoughts had reverted and all she could think of was the fight she had gotten herself into and how she completely had no idea why she had done what she did .Her impulsiveness was her greatest asset and flaw,somedays it was a bigger flaw than it was an asset, actually, most days.Even though it might not have looked like it, June was quite aware of her flaws and tried to handle them as smoothly as possible.Hence,it was unlike her to deliberately cause trouble for herself but recently she had been doing a fine job of causing a lot of trouble for herself which was the total opposite of who she was.Even though June had lived all of her life on the streets , she had always been the type to run when there was trouble ,

Off with the head
Clay was off within the blink of an eye,headed for June.Clay had run forward before she could even completely figure out what was happening .As she moved , running forward, all she could hear was the rumbling that sounded so close to her ear .Everything was a blur as she ran faster than she had ever done .She would never have anyone die on her,not ever again.Not June , not Saul or Jared and most especially not Jaymie when she could help it.She reached June and reached out to grab June, she jumped away just as an explosion shook the wall , crumbling it .The momentum from her jump coupled with the blast of the explosion from the steel's attack threw she and June further away from the intended endpoint for her jump.Clay fell with her body covering June and her arms hitting the asphalt heavily in an attempt to brace June's head.She groaned loudly as pain shot up her arms and knees that had also ground up against the asphalt.She pushed herself off of June to lay down on her own ,
