The Apocalypse: Life After Death

Closure

ey guys. This is sort of a filler chapter. Not really apart of the story but something I felt like needed to be done to clear up some questions some of you may have had. It's set about almost 2 weeks after Eric was killed before Aiden and Glens wedding. I hope you enjoy it. And also, I just want to take a moment to thank my girlfriend who has helped me tremdously with completing this story and I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have finished it without her. So you should all thank her lol.

Angel's POV

"Close gate number seven!" I shout to the guard station. An alarm sounds and the gate slides across the bottom track to close.

"Thank you." The small blonde says with a nod.

"You don't have to thank me; I was just doing my job." I tell her matter-of-factly.

"I know." She nods again as she walks backwards towards the small cot with white sheets and a brown blanket. I stare around her small cell before turning my attention back to her.

"I did it because if it was my family, I'd want to bury them too... even if they did horrible things, everyone deserves a proper burial."

Her lip twitches but she doesn't smile.

"It was kind of you either way." She takes a seat on the small metal cot and scoots back against the wall-pulling her legs up to her chest.

"Someone will come by later with your lawyer." She just nods. "Did someone explain to you how-"

"Yeah." She cuts me off, glancing at me briefly before looking back down at her legs.

"Good luck, Hannah." I give her a tip lip smile and walk away. I sort of feel bad for her and her little brother. They got caught up in the mess their brother brought them into and I realize that they were just trying to be loyal to their family... who's to say I wouldn't have done the same?

"What's up buddy." I rub my little brother on the head as I drop my badge and service weapon into the drop box by the kitchen safe. I close it and place the box inside the safe.

"Does school start back tomorrow?" He asks with a sideways glance. I know he's hoping for a no.

"Yes, school starts back tomorrow." I tell him with a smile and he groans.

"Can I miss it?" He stares up at me hopeful. I chuckle at his cuteness.

"You must certainly cannot." I say after a beat.

"Well you're no fun." He grunts and stalks away.

"And all your make up work better be done before tomorrow Tommy, I mean it!" I shout to his retreating figure. He mumbles something I can't quite make out as my aunt walks into the kitchen shaking her head and smiling.

"Will you two just get along already?"

I scrunch my brows and purse my lips before saying, "No."

She chuckles and shakes her head as I grab an apple from the bowl on the table and take a bite. "He's fourteen now Angel, you don't have to ride him this hard anymore. He's a teenager and he just wants to do teenage things."

"Like skipping school?" I pop a brow.

My aunt Maggie rolls her eyes. "You know that's not what I mean." Her lips curl up into a smile. "If I can recall correctly, you were quite the skipper at that age yourself." She narrows her eyes at me and I take another bite of my apple. I can't confirm or deny anything, my mouth is full. I shrug and she chuckles. "That's what I thought."
