Saul took off and they immediate did the same.They all ran after Saul , their feet pounding loudly on the pavements of the otherwise quiet streets as they had decided to throw caution to the wind for the next few minutes.As they ran forward and got closer to the location the sound was coming from , the whirring from the golem grew louder .The golem sounded enraged and on a rampage of sorts .They all readied theirselves with one final move as they neared the spot they would stop at .Clay took a deep breath , Saul cracked his knuckles while Jared lagged behind , hoping to not be involved in the craziness of it all .Meanwhile , June had an extremely determined look on her face as she took out her guns whe they rounded the corners of the deserted street and came face to face with the golem .It stood in the middle of the street and had successfully destroyed about half of the houses on the street , it had been looking at the spot they now stood even before they had stood there , alm
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
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
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
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
" 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
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
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
