The Westbrook Games The hiders
It was not just Clay that was overly affected by the ringing of the siren that Introduced the new day.When the loud buzzing came on,Vasquez had hurriedly closed his ears,as fast as he could but not fast enough to block all the possible noise out.He had gotten a gunshot to his ear a while back , a gift of his street shooting days and his ears had remained sensitive since especially to loud and piercing sounds and this siren was a terrible combination of both.The first time he had listened to the siren,he had been quite literally blown away as he had been unable to handle it.He had learned subsequently to control it,slower than his old self as he had grown older and slower while he was not even paying attention.He could not even think of being mad at the person that had done it to him because it was a mild complication compared to the usual complications involved in his lineof work.He especially considered it mild because he knew what he had done to other people on those same stre
The Westbrook Games The plan for the Gamemaster
"So, basically what you are trying to say is that , if the Gamemaster comes to know that we know of his existence , he will come after us?"Everyone exchanged looks while Clay laughed her heart out.She was laughing even louder than before and only stopped briefly when she noticed June staring at her quite skeptically.June frowned at her as she stopped her laughter."Don't you see?",She asked June who only frowned more."The Gamemaster,June. The Gamemaster gets to do his job while we just lead him through it",She explained with a wide smile.Clay laughed again as soon as she was done speaking.June suddenly jumped out of her seat and screamed when she finally took her mind off Clay and her incessant laughing and actually thought about the situation at hand." Holy shit!",She muttered,her eyes lighting up like a Christmas tree on the eve of Christmas day.Saul also understood what Clay was getting at but he could not afford himself the luxury of celebrating immediately so he instead b
The Westbrook Games The dark depth
He continued to stare at her like he was going to say something or even go as far as doing something.Clay did nothing but stare at him, waiting for him to do something, anything really so that she would have an excuse to retaliate and hurt him.There was this feeling she had,it needed to be expended and she was going to be very happy to expend it on the little,white haired boy in front of her.June stopped snickering when she realized that Clay was a bit too serious for the joke that she had thought they were trying to pull."Clay?",She called as she noticed Clay's fingers begin to curl and uncurl in to a fist.She stepped forward, going to stand in between them when she noticed that Clay did not heed her calls.She stepped between them,her eyes immediately on Clay.She saw the maniacal smile that danced at the edge of Clay's mouth and realized that Clay was intent on hurting him if she was afforded the opportunity.She immediately turned to the white haired boy,it would be easier to
The Westbrook Games Lost and found...lost again
"I can explain but first you need to sit down because it is a story that makes you very light-headed ",Clay explained to him, nodding towards him so that he understood that she was offering this as courtesy since he obviously was the only one that could be light headed.Juan stared at her for a few seconds before he made some noise under his breath and moved back to the bed where he sat tentatively like he wanted to be ready to run out of the room at any moment.Clay nodded in appreciation of him listening to her words,she then got herself comfortable to speak to him when she realized something.The white haired kid was still here.She could not continue now so Clay looked over at Vasquez,wanting to signal for him to send the boy away,she did not want to have to say it out.But the flickering light was terrible and it took her a while to even locate Vasquez before she could begin to signal what she was going to say.It did not help that Vasquez kept squinting at her like she was an un
The Westbrook Games The plan
They had to exit the room again to take Vasquez to his sister who was even farther down the hallway which meant they had to spend more time in that dark abyss .They filed out of the room but this time , Saul had taken the forefront so he could continue to Switch the flickering light back on everytime it went off,which was quite a lot of times.Vasquez was walking directly behind him while June and Juan supported Juan as they walked."Old man , how much longer do we have to go?Walking around your dreary hallways is really making me hate you more and more!".June groaned out while everyone pretended not to smile at that .Everyone wanted to be the ones to complain but since they also did not want to be perceived as weak , no one had complained .Clay was personally glad that June had expressed exactly how she felt on behalf of everyone of them.Vasquez was beginning to learn that it would take a whole lot to clear his name in June's book and get her to like him.Liking was probably far
The Westbrook Games When in doubt...
José watched the whole thing unfold uneasily.She was not sure what had happened but she could sense the power change,the kid seemed to be the one somehow in charge.Was that why no one was saying anything about her plan even though it was strange as fuck?She looked over to her brother,the only reason she had done most of the things that she had done in this game, including Listening to what Vasquez,the sick fuck wanted her to do.She could see that even her brother seemed to acknowledge this child.She knew nothing about the child except that she was the one that had Interrupted her brother's fight, defeated him, ended his winning streak and set off this rollercoaster of fighting.She briefly Wondered if that was why her brother seemed to respect the child that he could have probably given birth to if he had procreated as a teenager.Saul on the other hand seems to be just a statutory figure,he did not seem scared of the girl but he also seemed to not be interested in what the girl
The Westbrook Games The agreement
Juan nodded."Yeah,I saw him and even heard his prognosis",he replied to the inquiry.As soon as Clay heard that,her head spun around and she turned to face Juan,to address him when she suddenly noticed the look on his face,he seemed to be quite uncomfortable with the topic that they were discussing."It is okay , you do not have to mention it",she said, referring to The Mute's state that he had come across.Selfishly,it was not just because she did not want him to be uncomfortable about what he had witnessed.It was mostly because she was scared of hearing what she had done to the other man in order to win the match.She did not remember most of the match since at different times,she had been blinded with anger and rage and had just gone on rampaging and now,she had to hear the full extent of the damage she had done while cosplaying as a nice, violence hating medical student.But Juan shook his head,staring at Clay in confusion as he spoke,his eyes carrying a light that immediately a
The Westbrook Games The walk home
They were all leaving together.They had all huddled together out of the dreary hallway and then followed Vasquez to a better, well lit , escape module.It looked nothing like the escape module that they had all thought of or imagined but Vasquez Insisted that it was an escape module and all efforts to refuse his ideology had failed bountifully.They were all a team now as Vasquez had once again insisted but Clay preferred to think that they were just a group of people whose interests aligned for the time being,she did not put it past Vasquez to attack them if he thought that it suited him and they were no longer of use to him.After today or tomorrow,she was sure that they would all be off in completely different places,Clay just hoped none of them were navigating the roads that led to hell.As much as she did not like some of them,she also did not wish death on any one here, especially in this horrible manner.Vasquez had offered to take them past a way that was hidden and would not
