Warning [5SOS]

Riot

Michael sat in a folding lawn chair, one of many in a row. He held his mask in his hands and stared down at its empty eyes as Jay talked to the rest of them.

"Thieves!" He said.

The crowd cheered.

"Killers!" He yelled.

The crowd clapped.

"Destroyers of humanity!" He raised his hand into the air making a fist "That's what they call us!" He gripped the podium with his opposite hand.

The crowd roared with excitement.

"The White Faces will overrule this crummy world!" He smiled wickedly.

"Then society will rethink itself!" Someone said from their seat. The crowd of people murmured in agreement.

"Yes my brother!" Jay responded.

Michael sat still in his chair. His eyes never left the ones of the mask.

"Michael!" Jay yelled from the podium "don't you agree with your brothers and sisters? Don't you wish to celebrate in our victory?"

He looked up slowly "I will never agree"

Jay took a step back shocked by his words.

"You're wrong!" Michael yelled.

"Excuse me?" Jay asked.

"I said you are wrong!" Michael stood up and threw his mask to the floor "you all know it's wrong too!" He turned to the crowd "hurting people, stealing things, you know it's not the right thing to do! Our parents didn't raise us to be like this"

"Clifford's gone soft!" Someone said. The crowd laughed.

"Look who's talking Mr. Best kill time" another one remarked. The crowed laughed again.

"Yeah Michael, you're just as bad as the rest of us, why should we change now?" The person next to him asked looking up to see his face.

Michael looked down "it's never too late to make a change" he said "we can be good, we can help people!"

"Clifford" Jay said.

Michael turned around.

"Take your seat, or need I remind you of Melissa?" Jay sneered.

Michael frowned and descended back to his chair.

"As I was saying" Jay continued "it's time for the big project"

The crowed hooted and hollered. Michael sunk down in his seat.

"It's time to take out the police station!" Jay yelled holding his gun into the air "it's time to riot!"

The crowed rose to its feet and started firing at the ceiling. Michael covered his ears at the bullets being fired.

"Let's go my brothers and sisters! Let's take out the chief and his policemen and women! Never again can someone stop us from our destruction!" Jay yelled charging for the door with the crowed of people in white masks following. The room was empty except for Michael in his chair.

A hand grabbed his arm and pulled him "you too Clifford, we have a special job for you"

"Let go Grey!" Michael yanked his arm free "I'm not afraid of you" he said loading his machine gun and wrapping the bullets around his chest "come on" he said kicking open the door with his foot. He looked out into the city. It was already lit with flames.

"Hey" Grey pushed his chest "forgetting something?" He asked. Michael looked down and saw his mask. He took it from Grey and put it on.

Grey pushed passed Michael and began walking through the city. Michael followed hesitantly. People screamed and ran frantic at the sight of them. Buildings were already caught in flames and property was already damaged. How bad was this going to get?
