The Westbrook Games Surviving the others
" Come with me ".June turned around and began to walk off the streets , Saul followed her and Clay did too , after picking up her earlier discarded backpack .June stuck to the sidewalk , looking carefully at each house they passed .Eventually , she stopped in front of an average looking suburban house with an overgrown garden of poppies and hydrangeas .She turned around while pointing at the house ." Here , let's check out this place ",She suggested.Saul nodded and Clay remained unresponsive , their words about the game still grating heavily on her.They crossed the flower bed and headed for the door , there was no porch , gate , fence or security of any form .June turned the door knob and pushed the door but it wouldn't move .She took a step back and kicked the door but the door still did not budge ." Anyone have any sharp objects ? Pins ? Needles ? ",She asked as she looked around.She sounded frustrated as she asked and Clay noticed her hand itching towards the pistol that
The Westbrook Games The concept of quiet
It might have been too soon to declare the golems as not on a threat level because they could hear something approach .A loud mechanical droning suddenly rolled around the house , the house shook as it took on the vibrations that came with the droning, it felt like an earthquake was centered directly on the house . Clay jumped off the stool and turned around , she was looking through the windows and searching for the source of the whirring .She stopped turning when her eyes reached the window she had come through and she saw something out the window .A large mechanical face stared at her through the window , its gray eyes so human like as it stared at Clay , the jaws of the golem shifted into what she could have sworn was a grin .The misplaced grin on the metal face along with the human eyes was just too much , it made Clay's skin crawl and want to put an end to the abomination that she was looking at .Clay stumbled back as the creature stood erect , there was nothing for a mome

Her head hurt and her eyes were incredibly heavy .Clay kept her eyes closed for a while longer hoping to reduce the pain that came from the heaviness .When she did eventually open her eyes , the first thing she saw was her backpack lying ahead of her .Shit !Clay rushed up and swayed , vertigo hitting her .She waited for the swoon to wear off and then stumbled to her bag , the contents had been strewn around .The protein bars , water and her book were gone , only the emergency regeneration kit and her flashlight were left .Her bow and arrows were gone too .Clay groaned loudly , nothing was going the right way .She needed to study the journal that her cousin had left for her instead of a good enough weapon .And all of the references her cousin had been making to her about her Dad did not go forgotten .Clay needed that book .She touched the back of her head and felt fluid , she brought her fingers from behind her to examine it , blood .She took her fingers back tracing wher
The Westbrook Games Crazy things
" Hey , Clay ? ", A voice called out .A tap on her shoulders ." Clay Honey ? ", The voice called out again , sounding impatient .Another tap , this one harder and leaving a sting ." Come on hun , do not dare die on me ! You need CPR? Mouth to mouth recuperation ? ", The voice yelled , sounding more and more familiar .This time she hit her so hard that Clay groaned aloud and pushed June off of her .She lost her footing and fell on her ass , groaning and turning to glare at Clay ." I am not dying , just sleepy .And it is called resuscitation not recuperation ", she corrected her ." Well , I am eighteen ", She argued .She said it like she ought to be pardoned because she was eighteen , if they were in another reality , Clay would be telling her that her sister had known words like that since she was four .Clay sat up , there was smoke from up ahead where the men had been camping out .Shit ! The journal .Clay scrambled to her feet and took off , she could hear June behind her

They finally stopped running when they were a safe distance away and out of the woods .They were all panting and looking around them to make sure they were in the clear and they had not been followed. They had not heard any whirring or humming , so it seemed like a good place to stop .Clay looked up at the building that they were standing in front of , they had stopped outside a small church .Clay and the others fell on the chapel stairs , a picture of exhausted sinners come for redemption , while Hairs stood , remaining on his feet as he kept looking around frantically , he was staring at the way that they had come .Clay had not even noticed him as they ran , she wondered what had become of the other guys , she hoped they had also been able to escape .June pushed something into her chest , pushing her further into the stairs .She looked down to see that it was the box of chloroform from earlier , she had totally forgotten about it ." Thanks ", she whispered to her .She opene

Clay sighed again , she could not refuse to let them go with her or rather , she did not know how to get away from them , a means that would prove to be effective .June was a Mistress at manipulation and would only toy with her till she finally agreed to let them come along .And , she thought it was better to nip it in the bud now than have them follow her and cause problems for her in the near future ." Okay , but we need a secluded place . I do not want to meet more Richie's and since we have these steel golems everywhere , it would be better for us to avoid them so I do not want a reason to have to come out , I have enough food to last me a while ", Clay explained to both of them , if they were expecting the three of them frolicking around , they would not be getting it .June shook her head , bringing her arms to rest on her waist , unable to believe this human or girl really who wanted to burrow a hole in the soil and run into it , hiding till the seven days were over .She ba
The Westbrook Games Vinno
Clay was interrupted by Saul's loud sniggering that rose and fell as the man sniggered more .She turned around , exasperated by the unending noise to see what was making Saul so amused and saw June glaring at Saul , He was still laughing though ." We should split up and open the windows , get more light in and reduce the stuffiness ", Clay said , hoping to get the sniggering as far away from her as possible .June nodded and practically ran off with Saul chasing after her and snickering , like a couple of kindergarten children , Clay watched them , confused by the dynamics that governed their relationship .Of the two , June had seemed more capable of bullying anyone , at least way more than Saul who seemed to want to be everyone's friend and like he had succeeded at it before ,it was almost like he had no idea that he looked like the good looking bad guy from every main stream movie .Clay slowly walked down the church's aisle , opening windows and admiring the state of the church
The Westbrook Games Underdogs
" Your own room ? ", June iterated loudly like she had been the one to have found the room .June's hands were on her waist as she stared Clay down .Saul had also folded his huge arms in front of his chest ." Yes , that's right . Why does it got to be yours to pick ? Cause you found it ? ", Saul asked too .June nodded in agreement with Saul's line of questioning .Clay rolled her eyes at their childish antics ." Yes , precisely because I found it . So , you both find somewhere else to make into your own rooms ! ", She told them as she admired the beauty she had uncovered.June stepped forward , her eyes narrowing ." There is something deeply wrong with your ideology , honey . If we are keeping scores , then it should be noted that I was the one that deemed the church inhabitable . Hence , the whole church was found by me and I get to pick where to sleep while the both of you make do with whatever is left ", She reasoned with herself .Clay blinked , shocked.She had suddenly repl
