The Westbrook Games 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 Westbrook Games 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

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

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
The Westbrook Games The usual
" The usual " .Clay blinked , she was pretty good with faces and she was sure she had never seen this man before .Yet he was asking for his usual .Clay was not in the mood to humour some drunk ass ." What would that be sir ? "The man frowned , obviously displeased with Clay .He must have seen the dead ass expression on Clay's face ." A bloody Mary " .Clay grabbed a glass to fill the man's order .'' On the rocks ", the man called out .Clay nodded , grabbed the ice box and filled the man's glass .She slid the glass over the wide tabletop to the man .The man nodded at her , the kind of nod you would save for your pals .Clay did not return his nod , instead she went back to work .She filled drinks , added ice when it was asked for and wiped the table down every couple of minutes , not because it was dirty but because she could not stand doing nothing .She looked down at the wrist watch she had placed beneath the counter .The owner of the bar had forbade having wristwatches
The Westbrook Games The hospital
Clay was up at the crack of dawn , if staying awake most of the night was not considered .Up was quite literal as she had not been able to sleep more than a few minutes before she heard her sister groaning again and ran to her side of the bed .She had fallen asleep sometimes during her virtual class when her laptop had suddenly gone blank .She had hit every part of the laptop she could think of but the laptop would not boot .There was really no funds to get another laptop , so that was a huge bye to college for the next couple of weeks .She turned to her sister .She had only stopped groaning a little before dawn , she would definitely wake up exhausted .She got up and adjusted the blanket to cover her more .There was a huge hole in the blanket that she would have to fix when they arrived .They lived in a room that was shaped like a box .They slept at one end , cooked at one end and the bathroom was at another end .She walked into the bathroom and washed her face and teeth .
The Westbrook Games The Park
Clay watched Jade as she accessed where she had brought her to , her eyes travelling speedily over everything she could lay her eyes on .Her already large eyes were almost popping out as her eyes travelled around the open space , she gripped her backpack tighter and took an unhesitant step backwards before sharply looking back at her ." Clay? Where on God's green earth have you brought me ? " ,She questioned apprehensively .Her face was strangely drained of colour and her ears were straightened and pointed like a deer caught in headlights .Her voice was higher and much more strained than usual and she was doing the language thing , reverting to how certain people from the books she read usually talked .She was definitely anxious , there was no two ways around it ." Isn't it obvious ? It is the largest and most popular theme park in the city ",she tried to sell it with as much excitement as she could muster .When she still remained silent and only gripped her bag tighter, cuttin
The Westbrook Games The gates
The next morning , Clay woke up earlier than usual which was honestly by a whole lot , she had barely slept .She looked over to her sister's end of the bed where she lay curled in a little ball and stripped bare of bed coverings , like she usually was five minutes after every time that she covered her up .She was sure that she had folded the blanket into two to make it thicker and heavier and placed it on her sometimes during last night .The blanket was now nowhere to be visually noted .After they had arrived home , it had taken them a while to go to sleep because the landlord had apparently waited somewhere for them .He had come knocking and yelling as soon as they entered the apartment .Clay had ignored him at first .When he had just kept on knocking and ranting , she had gone out and promised to have the money to hil by the next day .They had then heated the remnants of an apple pie and eaten it before they retired for the day .She left the bed and went to the other end of
