the beginning.

one.

∞༺♥༻✧

Where should I begin? The freaking earth was now destroyed, and that meant that everyone and everything was lost. There was no civilisation out there anymore. Just dead bodies, and if any one has survived, wishes that they would have died instead of going through the nuclear winter and cancer

I was one of the 'lucky' people that were chosen to actually survive, that's why I was in this outpost. Outpost three

There were quite a few people here too. We were separated in purples and greys. Based on Ms. Venable's words, the woman that is responsible for this outpost, purples were the elite, and the greys were just the help, the worker ants. I was a purple, but managed to be friends with many of the greys too, especially because I tried to prove to her that they were people too, and they didn't deserve to be treated like animals. But actually that is how she treats every single one of us in here too. Without caring, no sympathy, just cruelty

Every single day is the same with the previous one. With the same fucking song playing in the main room where everyone would sit and try to at least enjoy each other's company. However, even after all this time, I still felt so lonely in here

I miss everything about my life before the bomb. I miss my family, I miss every single thing that used to seem so simple to me. I wanted to go outside, feel the grass between my toes again and the warm sunlight on my face, with the wind blowing my hair away

But that would never happen because of the rules that Ms. Venable had arranged and told us when we first arrived in this hellhole

No one is allowed to go outside, for no reason

Don't be late. There is no excuse since we have nothing else to do in here

No copulating. Death will be our punishment

Don't leave our rooms after a certain time, lights out

And many, many more bullshit.

I was bored of everything and every one. The only thing that kept me entertained was going to the library, where I stayed in most of the day, besides my room. I would spend so much time in there reading books, that I have read every single one on the book shelves a couple of times already

I was reading my favourite one this time, with a candle next to me providing me with its light so that I will be able to read, when I heard her cane tapping the floor. The library's door opened with a smash and I quickly looked up in shock dropping to my feet the book that I was holding in my hands a while ago

'Where have you been Ms. Y/L/N?' Ms. Venable asked me in an angry, yet quite calm, tone

'Well, I was right here as you can obviously see for yourself' I built up the courage to tell her but I immediately looked down. She cleared her throat

'Do you know what time it is?'

'No' I said still afraid to look up

'It's 8.30pm Ms. Y/L/N. And that means, that you are late for dinner'

'I'm sorry Ms. Venable. I swear it will not happen again' I got up and placed my book back in the book shelf where I found it

'It better not. Now let's go. Every one is waiting for us in order to start eating' She turned her back and started walking towards the door again. I rolled my eyes thinking that I had to eat that disgusting nutritional cube again

'Yeah, like any of us actually enjoys eating that shitty cube over and over again...' I said under my breath following Ms. Venable when she suddenly stopped and I almost fell on her. She turned around and grabbed my arm

'Did you say something?' She was so close to me that our noses were almost touching. My cheeks immediately turned into a flaming red

'N-No Ms. Venable. I didn't say anything' I startled and she finally let go off my hurting arm

'That's what I thought' She walked away smashing her cane on the floor angrily, echoing all around the room

Ms. Venable was a firm woman. She made sure no one was breaking her rules, and when that happened, which was rarely, she would punish them in the worst way possible, making sure that it would not happen again, if she didn't have them killed of course. 'Don't make me repeat myself. I hate that' She always used to say to us, and no one dared to disobey her

Every one was afraid of her or hated her guts, but I knew that there was something special about her

And I was definitely going to find it out. Sooner or later.
