The Westbrook Games Kill Patron
They had all been quiet as they all cradled this bomb that Clay had dropped in their arms .Clay had been watching June clench and unclench her fist for several minutes now .It had come as a shock to Clay too but she had not been too shocked .If the game was truly about giving the winner whatever he decided on , Clay had long suspect that all stops would be pulled to make it as hard as possible .She had just not assumed death to be a part .But once she had confirmed that the deaths were real and not VFX or CGI , it had been easy to just see the worst of the whole situation .She had no idea how to tell the others that there was a great possibility that they were also being watched .Besides , the itch she had was still there .She still did not see the reason James had given her this book .It did not make enough sense that he had given her the book for her to find out that the steels were puppets whose strings were being pulled .That Information only fueled her to kill as many a
The Westbrook Games Ground or corn beef?
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
The Westbrook Games The apology
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
The Westbrook Games Slime dunk
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
The Westbrook Games Bad by day
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
The Westbrook Games Forgotten memories
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
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

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
