Vasquez frowned.

He was obviously mistaken.

Vasquez had still been thinking of that Saul,the Saul whom he thought that he knew,it was obvious now that he didn't know anything about Saul or maybe he had simply changed that much.

Vasquez was not sure which it it although he suspected the latter,they had been good frienfs after all and he had known him very well.

He dusted his pants off and smiled widely.

This was not the Saul from those days,this Saul had a lot to fight for and protect and strangely enough,he found it unnerving to believe that he wasn't the one Saul was fighting to protect.

While they had been trying to build their street Cred, Somewhere along the lines,Saul had taken over Vasquez' protection.

They had never actually talked about it,he had simply taken over it like it was absolutely normal.

Now,he was faced with a different Saul that acted like he had not once been capable of jumping in front of a bullet for him.

This Saul was one he could not afford to underestimate if

    June did not stop.She headed for the corner of the cage that she had thrown Kaya towards, walking determinedly,her eyes on Kaya's as she walked.She reached Kaya and frowned softly before raising her fist at her.June raised her fist and moved it to strike Kaya who was still trying to regulate her breathing after slamming rib first into the rails,just as the fist was about to hit Kaya, June changed her mind and flattened her fist instead, landing an unbelievably loud bitchslap on Kaya's face.The slap was so unexpected that it had Kaya sliding back down the rails while she stared at June in disbelief.June only laughed out at the expression of shock on her face.Seriously,what was wrong with this people and their constant, unnecessary shock?June was not satisfied with just a slap even though the slap had her on the floor so she pulled June back up and turned her other cheek, hitting her with the same bitchslap that had the crowd gasping like they were part of the audience that was w

    "THIS IS REALLY SCARY STUFF AND TGE FAINT HEARTED ARE HIGHLY EXPECTED TO NOT LOOK TOO CLOSELY WHILE THE REST OF US TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IN THE WORLD IS WRONG WITH TGE ANATOMY OF THE MUTE'S FACE!!".Clay watched The mute's face in undisguised horror.For the first time,she completely understood and agreed to what the Commentator was saying.The Mute was running his finger over his face, wiping the tears out of his eyes when he mistakenly touched his jaw that shimmied as soon as soon as his hand touched it,causing another chill to travel down Clay's spine.She grimaced as she stared at the jaw that was still slightly jiggling.Body parts especially jaws were not supposed to jiggle like it was filled with jelly.She turned her attention from the jiggling jaw,or tried to rather.No matter how much she tried to,she still ended up going back to look at it.He was cleaning the rest of the visible parts of his face and did not seem to care about his jiggling jaw that to hurt.Did he not fee

    "You know what ? Don't worry about that",he told them with a soft smirk pulling at the edge of his lips.Juan bent down as the twins began to struggle to get the vest off their feet without success."Now,I will be needing you two to stay very still",He said to them as he turned to them with a nice smile before turning back around to face where he was headed for."Let us go this instant!",One of the twins yelled.Juan turned around once more and looked at the two covered faces,he was trying to figure out who had spoken but of course,it was basically impossible so he simply smiled while staring at both of them."You can't ask for that. Ask for something else,a scone for instance",he told them and turned back around.The twins burst in to laughter, each of them giggling in a way that did not even annoy Juan,he could hear the grating of their giggling as they were obviously no longer as jolly as they had claimed to be.He grabbed the rest of vest that was between both their legs and rolle

    KAYA X JUNE.Kaya exhaled harshly as she came to her senses.She had not exactly come to her senses in the right context of it but she was still doing far better than June who had not moved since.She had not thought that it would do it but it seemed her last hit had managed to unhinge June.She slowly got on her back looking quite unhinged herself,her whole body hurt but she was not ready to stop.She turned over to have a better grip as she dragged herself up to her knees whilst her back wailed from the pressure she was putting on it and she began to crawl slowly to where June had collapsed on to the ground with her head nestled in between her arms.She was in an almost foetal like position and was laying merely a foot or two away from where Kaya knelt but it seemed like such a long distance away as Kaya pushed herself to make it to June.Her back hurt too much for her to keep her head up as she crawled forward so her head was down as she crawled and she only occasionally raised it

Behind a cage?

", 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

    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 ."

    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

    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

    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?

  • 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
