Falling in Place

Appearance

I felt a slight nudge and my shut eyes

opened. I woke up to an unfamiliar

scenery. The truck hadn't stopped

tho. I touched the side of my face and

felt dried blood like cake plastered on

my face. My eyes were wide as an

ocean fear and worry written all over

it. The grass and tall trees kept

bending with the breeze as if telling

us goodbye I looked beside me and a

girl about my age looked terror

stricken completely worse than me

and I didn't think that was possible.

Her hair was crimson brown and

eyes a different shade of hazel.

Building up the courage I asked her

"are you alright"

But I doubt she heard me cause the

next thing that happened was worth

being quiet about. The truck stopped

And the soldiers started coming

down. I then realised I didn't hear

any name only numbers were being

called and I wondered if that I was

how many times they were to torture

us or something. The soldiers came to

the back of the truck and brought us

down. Everyone looked wide eyed at

the military based wide looking camp

in front of us. It looked like we were

preparing for a war. Only their was

no such thing active as of now.

"To the dining hall" one of the men

yelled. And in a single file they led us

towards an emerald looking building.

Its roof was cream and it seemed to

have 3 balcony in the front, the white

walls give off a cold feeling as we

entered. We walked into another

large space still standing in our file,

and heard a voice from above or

should I say upstairs.

"Pleased for you all to make it here safely I'm Margaret"

I looked up to see a woman with a

long scar on her face her cheeks

blotted red the kind of things that

usually happen to fat people. She

continued,

"I'm here to tell you the don't and
do of camp Scorpio" " You must participate actively, be fully agile, keep to yourself unless asked to speak and obey rules"
"You are not allowed to keep overly
long hair and to call each
other by your original name. Participating in all activities are not optional,you must participate cause they are all mandatory. You try to run away you die. And the most important rule you are forbidden to fall in love. Anyone caught breaking the last and most important rule would be killed on the spot"

I turned to look behind me and that's

When I saw him. His face looked like

something the Gods had created But

that wasn't what kept me staring .

It was his eyes. He looked different

from the others but on his hand was

a dark print of something I couldn't

see clearly.

"We are here to turn you into weapons of mass destruction" her
voice cut my chain of thoughts

I looked back again and he wasn't

there. The soldiers led us back to the

dinning hall to eat. But I had already

lost my appetite.

All I could just see was blood, blood,

blood and more blood.
