The Westbrook Games 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 Westbrook Games 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
The Westbrook Games 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
The Westbrook Games 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
The Westbrook Games 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 ,
The Westbrook Games 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 ,
The Westbrook Games The new level
Clay had fallen and plunged to the ground,her body had bounced off twice like she was some sort of elastic human and ther was nothing but a physics experiment.Clay had expected some kind of quiet after she fell but alas she had not gotten that,she instead was stuck in a haze of noise and darkness.She had not escaped and was conscious to everything around her,it irked her.She could hear all of them,their talking was distorted but she could not bring herself to open her eyes to see who was talking .She was just too tired , all she wanted was to keep her eyes closed and shut out their yelling, couldn't she get a few minutes of quiet so that she could rest?"Clay???!!!", Someone was yelling her name like there was some emergency going on.She could hear the urgency in the voice, the person was obviously scared for her,did they think she was dying?A thought came to her then,she was probably really bloody and messy from the tree climbing and all the falling she had done today,maybe it
The Westbrook Games First shift
JUNEAfter they had successfully albeit turbulently managed to help Clay into her room,she has slept off almost immediately.They had disinfected Clay's wound and wrapped it up in bandages while she had been sleeping and it had not been easy at all since Jared would not come anywhere near her blood and both June and Saul had absolutely no useful medical knowledge.All they seemed to know we'ree food combinations that were supposedly deadly.When their struggle had finally ended,they had all been almost as exhausted as Clay was.Saul had decided that they watch her in shifts so they could rest but instead of saying it straightforwardly,he had instead made a bad joke of not letting their best fighter run away on them after she realized that she was always getting injured around them and they were simply too much trouble , none of them had laughed even when they realized that he was just trying to ease their emotions.Well,it was because he was mostly right.Jared had of course taken the

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 ."

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
