The Westbrook Games Crash class
Clay must have been seating for hours since June left her to focus on her work because when she decided to stand up, her legs had fallen deeply asleep and had cramped up terribly.She grimaced and immediately sat back down as she raised her legs up.She had to massage them for a long while before they decided to work again without buzzing her every few seconds like they were electrically charged.While she had been studying and drawing more pictures , Saul had first come in .He had peeked around the room cautiously and when his eyes had landed on Clay,he had looked even more cautious.She watched him come into the room and something came to her mind,he was almost to her when Clay had rolled her eyes and told him that she did remember him and he ought to just leave.Saul had blinked rapidly at her for a few minutes before he had just offered his help to draw some of the parts of the steel and Clay had hurriedly chased him away before he made another ridiculous offer to help .Not so v
The Westbrook Games The trainer and trainee
They were both sweating profusely but strangely,they were having a lot more fun than either of them had thought possible so they had kept up with it.They had also found common ground in struggling to best the other person in strength and durability so they were adamant on not giving up,at least not as first."Again,one more time !!",Clay yelled loudly.June ran forward as soon as Clay barked the order and began to block Clay's onehanded swings at her like they had been practicing to.Clay was slower than she would have liked because her hand hurt everytime she moved it but she was still fast enough to keep June on her toes.She had consoled herself with the theory that every time her hand hurt, it was healing more .She noticed that June was getting used to her attacks and doing a good job of blocking her hits but she always tended to get too engrossed in one and almost never made provisions for new attacks and moves, so, Clay suddenly kicked her and just like she had anticipated,Jun
The Westbrook Games Gauntlet
Clay did not sleep for five minutes or ten minutes .And she would have continued to sleep for a lot longer If Jared had not woken her up .Clay was quite groggy as she was tapped awake , she turned over in the bed , groaning as she did so.Her nap had been going so well." Is it ten minutes now?Let me sleep for an extra five minutes , will you ? ",She called groggily to whoever was waking her with so much determination.The person that had been waking her began to snicker,so she opened her eyes.When she opened her eyes, she could not make out the face of whoever was snickering because the room was so dark .She wondered just how long she had been sleeping for that the room had already become dark ."How long have I been asleep for? It could not have been over thirty minutes,why the hassle ?",She whined in irritation."You are right,it could not be over thirty minutes,it has been a very long time now,a couple of hours even",He told her.Jared's voice ended her curiosity as he paused
The Westbrook Games Turn after turn
JOSÉ !JOSÉ !!JOSÉ !!!The crowd was chanting repeatedly as the commentator egged them on with all of his might .The crowd began to edge forward , strategically taking or rather pushing June forward along with them so she did not have any avenue to change her mind or escape when she did change her mind .From down here , Clay could not make out anything that was happening within the ring or in front of it , the crowd was making sure of it while still counting .She turned around and checked the bleachers considering climbing on to them,they were farther from the fight and would afford a great view but then,they would also make it harder if she needed to offer help,she could not exactly offer any help from all the way over there.Even though they offered a better view of what was happening, they were strangely vacant which made people avoid them and in turn a continued vacancy was occuring in the bleachers since no one wanted to be the first to sit over there.It seemed people prefer
The Westbrook Games Real life heroes
The crowd was wild,charged like there was electricity flowing between them,they had responded positively like when a like charge meets an unlike charge. " WAS THAT A SLAP ?!?! DID JOSÉ SLAP HER BECAUSE SHE WAS ONLY DESERVING OF A SLAP AND NOT AN ACTUAL HIT ?!?! "June remained on the floor for a moment while the crowd hailed José,chanting her name as they applauded her . José did not pay attention to any of this and only focused on stretching and cracking her neck loud enough for the entire crowd to hear or at least create the illusion that they had heard.When she was done,she turned around, headed to where June still lay, flexing her fist and legs as she stalked towards June.As she approached,the crowd's chanting increased again and,June raised her head and saw her coming , she scrambled to get on her feet , stumbling all over as she did so .She was almost to her feet when José reached her, unlike the hesitating José that had existed just a moment ago , this José had no chill an
The Westbrook Games Saving grace
José blinked twice and fell down like she had been forwarded,the whole gym broke out in cheers.It was more than enough evidence that the crowd did not care who was winning.Clay sighed in relief because another fear she had was that if June won,they might even be in more trouble.She was strangely so proud of June, especially because she did not tap out of the fight."IT IS THE UNDER BITCH RISEN FROM THE DEAD AND SHE HAS COME BEARING A HUGE GRUDGE !!! ".The crowd went even wilder with the commentary while José remained unmoving in the floor, it seemed they were only here for entertainment, they did not care if it was José or June that was providing it or at the receiving end of it .Clay watched as June stumbled back after striking José with her chair that was still strangely straight.What was it even made from?José had stumbled forward and fallen to her knees but she was getting back up again in a few seconds and was staring at June with a very specific disgust,like she was broke
The Westbrook Games Awake!
Clay opened her eyes when something hit suddenly hit her, jarring her awake almost too abruptly.She blinked lazily in her awakening for a few moments,she was unaware of her surrounding for about five seconds,looking around frantically for any familiar items before she slowly remembered that they had still not left the clinic and hurriedly scrambled off, jumping on to her feet .The second thing she remembered was that something had hit her and that was what had woken her up , she looked down to find a small roll of Band-Aids .Clay picked it up,gettiing an eerie vibe suddenly before she heard a throat clearing and looked towards where June had lain before she had fallen asleep.She turned to find that June was awake and glaring at her,some more memories of what was going on and the situation they were in came to her and Clay stilled temporarily for a moment before she ran for June.Clay rushed forward,taking her flashlight with her and disposing off the band-aid that had been thrown
The Westbrook Games June Says
"I was quite sure I would enjoy the death of one of you today",The voice said.They all turned to the source of the sound and saw Top dog come out from behind the men that had gathered around them , the men all had their flashlights on Clay and the others .Clay's hand twitched,she had nothing useful on her except her own flashlight,they were already outnumbered and the others had no weapon either,this was not looking great.June could not even stand properly and had to be supported by Clay and Saul.If they decided to attack them now, it would all go to shit,for them mostly.The only logical way to get out of this would be to talk Top dog down or even go as far as begging him to let them go.Clay was not prideful when it came to matters of life, even when it involved begging assholes like Top dog.So,Clay transferred June totally on to Saul's side,freeing herself before she slowly stepped forward , raising her arm to show that she was unarmed ."You can not just stop us because you d

It all ends with us
She could hear it all .She had heard everything that had happened from all of them but for some reason , she just could not wake up ." How is she doing ? Is she any better ? ", Saul asked Jade .He had learnt the hard way that she hated to be spoken to like a child ." No , the doctor says she is perfectly fine , I am beginning to think she is using this as an excuse so that she does not have to face me and everything I have to say to her and trust me , I have a lot ", She said sneering ." Yes , I do trust you ", Saul told the child who turned to glare at him too .They had all thought that getting a heart transplant would slow her down or at least keep her quiet for a few days but that was not the case .She claimed to be waiting for her sister to wake up so she could give her a very hot piece but she was here every second , holding her hands when she thought that they could not notice , it was obvious that she missed her sister the most .She had been asleep now for two weeks and

A finale to see...
Clay was bereft with emotions as she looked at June's face .She was too young , too young to have ever been exposed to such a harsh life , too young to be here but most of all , she was too young to be getting cold in her hands .She was too young to be dead , a tear slipped out of Clay's face and on to hers .Strangely , when she thought of June , there were no sad moments , thinking of her only brought smiles to her face .CLAY !!!The automated voice thundered behind Clay once again and she came back to the situation on ground .She remembered Jared and the autobots and the people that were still taking cover behind the ledge .June had died to protect them , she could not let any harm come to them and foil June's sacrifice now .Clay carried her gently and put her in Saul's arms , patting Saul's shoulders as she stood on her feet and turned around to look at Jared .She almost grimaced as she watched Jared limp his way out of the autobot's face .The autobot had done quite a numb

Lived till the last breath
Saul was weeping softly as he caressed her face , not even noticing that Clay had joined them until Clay pulled her out of his arms to wrap her again in her own vest .She opened her eyes when she felt the jerk and saw that it was Clay , her eyes were glassy and unfocused like she was blindly doing whatever it was that she was doing.June held up her arms and Clay looked at her , realizing that she was conscious before grabbing her fingers ."Why ? why ? why would you come out , you knew it was dangerous ", she cried softly , unable to control herself .June smiled , sputtering softly ." Yes , I knew but he was going to blow all of us up and I could not allow that , I wanted so badly to be your deputy and a little sacrifice should not have been scary to me ", She told her , her voice lower than a breath ." I never made you my deputy , you are lying ", Clay cried out , short of words ." Does it hurt ? ", She added a second later , hoping that the adrenaline her body was providing wa

The shots
Clay had realized one minute into her struggle with Jared's new sleek autobot that the autobot had not been built for a fight .It was slower than all of the autobots that Clay had fought before and since it had opted to struggle with Clay Instead of whirring out one of its famous weapons from its hands , it was safe to assume that its arm was probably just a normal bot arm that was incapable of transforming .Clay realized that the Autobot was infact only there to keep her busy and away from the two other autobots that stood in the middle of the field .They stood still and did not bother to go after June and the others .They also could not approach it seeing that its hand was a frigging shotgun .The other two autobots that stood in the middle of the field felt like some part of a sinister plan to Clay because he had no idea when they would begin to shoot or if at all they would shoot , she could imagine that June and the others were also ill at ease ." What do you want with them

The Meetup
They all watched as the Autobots began to fall to the ground.June had run out from behind their cover while Clay worked and had released the people that were being held and began to scream commands to everyone that was gathered there along with them , including the ones that were not their teammates."Go to the autobots and make sure that they stay down , we can not afford for the Gamemaster to gain control of them again!!!", She was yelling as she ran.The people seeing as Dean had taken the initiative and now June, also trying to make sure that they survived, ran out to help .The ones with guns shot at everywhere they knew to shoot at to prevent the autobots from returning to their feet while Saul shared grenades so that they could easily spread out and maim as many autobots as they could reach .This was going on smoothly when another whirring began.They all turned to where the whirring was coming from and watched as another autobot came from behind them .This one was different

Her Discovery
Clay turned around and beckoned for the others to come closer ." Okay everyone , we have no foreknowledge of what we are literally running into , but we need to stick together as much as possible ,like I said earlier there will be a bomb or most likely several that have been positioned in different places , they will all be self made bombs which means that they will not have much in terms of range but it also means that we might be unable to disarm them without Jared doing so himself . So, when we get there , depending on what the situation looks like , we will be splitting ourselves up to effectively locate the bombs . Lastly , we know nothing about Jared's plan so , when we can try to remain as alert as possible incase there are autobots lying in wait ", Clay said , wondering if she had gone through everything she needed to ." Ricky and Alberto lead the way , we are running down to the arena , all the way .Everyone , please stay safe ", Clay told them and stood back for Alberto an

It's just Jared....
As soon as Clay made her point,the others froze and paused all the movements they were making like they were being held at gunpoint while their eyes followed all of Clay's movement .Clay had immediately gotten on her feet after she spoke and had proceeded to run to the middle of the church where she had left her bulletproof vest and the rest of her stuff earlier.She began to dress in a hurry , tucking her guns into her vest and swinging the satch that contained her arrows over her back in record speed,it almost seemed like she had been doing that all her life.The rest of the team watched her in perplexity while she dressed and when she was done , she turned to look at them, get eyes fleeting over each one of them that was staring at her ." Why aren't you guys preparing ? We need to be out of here as soon as possible or do we not? ", She asked as she looked at their faces .Juan finally stepped forward ," You said it was a trap and he is going to release the bomb in the arena , if

The truth at long last
Saul could hear voices .Of course, he was surrounded by people so hearing voices was not such a big deal but the voices he was hearing were too harsh for whatever he was hearing to be okay.Saul jumped on his feet and turned around." Do you hear that ? ", Saul asked the others to be sure he was not the only one hearing the voices as he turned around to the doors of the church ." Hear what ? " June asked as she looked around , looking for what was supposedly making noise and confirming that it was indeed just Saul that was hearing these voices.She could hear nothing but she also knew just how sensitive to sound Saul was so she followed him when he stood up and began to walk towards the doors after him.The others also turned to see what Saul and now June were up to .Saul threw his hands forward and opened one of the large doors of the church that led to the room that the others were in and the sound of Clay shouting immediately filled the air .Saul immediately rushed inside,follo
