The Westbrook Games The ride through fire
Everyone understood what they had to do as soon as the roles had been shared and no one had any questions or suggestions.They split immediately Clay was done sharing them, everyone running to their respective duties while Clay ran towards the stairs.She took them in twos , running for the next floors as fast as she could .She was so engrossed in running up the stairs that she almost missed her floor and had to run down an extra flight of stairs to get there.She ran around looking for the shop that had been termed hardware and eventually got it, taking a second to understand the door before she was running in.The first thing her eyes landed on were black trash bags, perfect.She grabbed one and tore the seal off with her teeth as she opened it while running around the store, looking for where to start from.She finally found a shelf that had things she wanted or rather things that were needed, she grabbed flashlight batteries and several little bottles of menthylated spirit,thy wo
The Westbrook Games Lost
For the duration of their walk back to the church,no one had spoken to Clay.They had spoken amongst themselves for the longest times but they had not spoken to Clay and she had been gkzdrkThey were almost at the church when Richie stopped the party.He wanted them to split the spoils so they could be on their way and would not have to walk all the back since they were headed in the opposite direction.Actually, he was only scared that if they continued to move forward, they might encounter more people and the others might agree to split the spoils with the new people as well, and he would not be able to disagree because he had not really played a significant role in procuring it and would have no say."Hey, I think we have gone far enough now, let us split what we got and go our separate ways",he suggested.Clay looked at him and all she could think of was that this meant that Richie did not stay very far away from the church.Clay yelped softly when two strangers , a male and femal
The Westbrook Games Through the dirt
Clay had no idea which way to go or rather which way she would have gone.She thought and thought of where she could have gone in search of them but nothing was coming to mind.All she could think of was all the terrible things that could happen to her while she was alone and how she was even injured.Lords,why had she not at least written a message.She knew there was no point in blaming herself.It was a waste of time and effort and she should be focusing on finding her first.She knew all of this but still,all she could think of was how it was her fault.She could not think of anywhere that she might have gone off to so she ran to all the places they had been to together, hoping that she would find her in one also searching for her.She would have probably suspected that Clay and the others would not go to any new places so she might have checked out all of the old places that they had all been to together.She checked around the church's block and all of the places that they had e
The Westbrook Games Human hater
A game .Clay felt that she was personally experiencing an epiphany, that was the only explanation she could muster for the feeling that she was experiencing since hearing that she was in a game.She had of course known it was a game but she had been so busy surviving that she had not even noticed what every average game possessed.Why had she never thought of it that way?A game meant that there had to be someone in charge or at least in control , like a gamemaster or someone on another level, a guide of sorts.And a very common feature of a gamemaster was usually their availability to the players.They would not leave the gameverse just to the players,they could not.If Clay was right,there was a gamemaster somewhere in this game watching all of them.They might be hidden and watching them but what was the point of even hiding when no one here knew anyone else?Whoever it was,they were definitely also pretending to be a player to be effectively included in the game.Clay gasped slig
The Westbrook Games The evil one
It took them a while to completely navigate the woods, quite the longest time they had spent in the woods since they had begun to move around it.Actually, it was more than a while but they did get the hang of it later on and were soon out of the woods and on their way to the church, utterly thirty and tired.When they arrived at the church about an hour later, Saul and Jared were waiting outside for them,this was new and unexpected.They were seated on the stairs and talking to each other about something that seemed to be quite animated and engrossing as they had not noticed Clay and June walking up to them even though they were not even trying to be stealthy.Clay shook her head as she thought of what might have happened if it was some other people walking up to them instead.They turned around when they finally heard their footsteps from behind them and watched them walk a while before they moved.Saul jumped up the stairs in a way that made Clay suddenly curious of his age,he walk
The Westbrook Games The break in
Clay decided on her rifle though .For some reason even she was unaware of, Clay was keeping the bow and the new arrows she had just procured,she just did not want to use them.She forced her vest back on and stepped out of the room, ready to move and face whatever had attacked.Saul had left the pews and was standing by the church's doors now with a pistol in his hand,he quickly scanned around when he saw Clay approach and noted that June and Jared were no where to be found.Clay got off the altar and moved between the pews to look out of the glass stained windows to see if they could be seen from the windows.Since they were stained, it would be relatively hard for anyone to see through but Clay would have no problem seeing them.Clay looked out all the windows but saw nothing.She was on the last window when she caught a brief flutter,she spent a second longer at the window and noticed movement from fatigues like theirs.The strangers were all men and seemed to be working very well

The Westbrook Games Jared at night
Clay woke up for what was like the fourth time since she had tried to fall asleep.She was so exhausted but her brain was strangely excited and would not rest so she found herself waking for strange reasons , with her brain replaying almost every scenario that she had witnessed within the past few days over and over again.At first, the reason she had been unable to sleep had been quite simple , it had been because she had been unable to sleep as she was plagued with how Saul had looked as he read Carlos' note .She had tried to tell herself to keep calm that she would talk to Saul later on and they could resolve it when everyone was sufficiently rested , but her body would not obey so she had ended up getting up and trudging up the stairs to look for Saul who she had promptly found so deep in thought that he did not notice Clay outside his room for almost six minutes , when he had eventually turned and noticed Clay , Saul had looked quite depressed.So Clay had spoken briefly to Saul
