The walls

Chapter 2: the trails

I quickly grabbed the two uniforms from Mr.Caverson. I basically ran home as fast as my legs would allow me to go. I threw the door open, Lena just stared at me. She look down at the two blue navy uniforms I held in my hands. "Are those the new uniforms?" She said with a huge grin across her pale face. I smile back,"yep" she took the smaller uniform from my hand and started heading down the small hall, which lead to our room. "Excuse me!" I yelled jokingly. She rolled her large brown eyes. "What?"
"You need get dressed. We have the tr..... The umm.. Town meeting."
"I'm not two anymore, Liza!" You can go ahead and say it! We have the trails today! And we will mostly likely to be picked!"
I wanted start crying. I held back the tears. "Go get dressed..."
"Just because they died, doesn't mean you will too."
I tried to fight back the tears, but I couldn't anymore. "GO GET DRESSED,LENA!"
" you can't tell me what to do! YOU'RE NOT MY MOM"
"GET DRESSED!" It was like a daze, I don't remember much. I remember seeing my large, red handprint on her face, I remember her run to our room, I remember the look of betrayal oh her small, round face as she ran from me, tears raced down her face. I couldn't believe what I had done. I smack my sister.... I hit her. The only person I still have and I hit her? I ran after her. She slammed our room door shut. I knew she wouldn't open it. I walked away, trying to remember what had just happened. It didn't matter anyways. I had to get ready.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The crowed sobbed, scared of losing their parents, their children, the ones they loved the most. Lena walked by herself, she left thirty minutes before me. I wished her good luck, she didn't even look at me. As all the women and young girls start to pile in They start to filing on to the stands. As the last of the women came,"They"walked on the small stage in the front. "Welcome everyone thank you for participating, don't you will all be fine, the training is hard, but it is well worth it. We have to defend this small part of America we still have. We have been watching you for the last few months..We have all ready pick our five candidates that we be training with us for the next few years. Now before we call out the names, does anyone have any questions?"
A few ladies holding their small balling babies raised their hands.
"No questions? Good lets move on. You ladies are all smart, brave, and very ambitious, but some are more than others-"
I stopped listening, I was watching Lena from the other side of the packed room, she was more than terrified. What They were doing is wrong, They knew it wrong. They found our suffering, humorous. I couldn't let them do this again! They're taking Lena and they know it! Those awful bastards can't rip my family apart again! I CANT LET THEM DO THIS TO HER! THEY CANT DO THIS TO ME! THEY THINK THEY'RE SO SMART THAT THEY CAN DO WHATEVER THE HELL THEY WANT! I DON'T CARE IF THEY PLAN TO TAKE ME OR MY SISTER, THEY CANT JUST RIP AWAY SOMEONES SISTER, OR MOTHER!
"THIS IS STUPID!" I didn't even realize if had said out loud until the small murmurs around the room became loud gasps and stares.
"Do you have something to say, Miss Liza?" They asked
"Y-Yes.. two years ago, you promised us safety.. Now by doing this, you're taking away the one promise we live for. You act like you care about us, but if you did you wouldn't be taking away our mothers, sisters,grandmothers! I'm begging you please for the sake of humanity don't do this."
"miss Liza, you come from a very respected family in this community, I'm so sorry to hear about your brother's passing-"
"Wait.. My brother.. died.. YOU MONSTERS!"
I fell in to another long daze. I had no idea what I was saying, but I could feel my lips moving, I could also feel the connected tears falling of my face. They were pulling me off the speaker's face. There were scares scars where there weren't before, there were new scratches on the women's face they I could even begin to explain. I couldn't believe I had done that. "Guards! Take her away! TO TH TRAINING CENTER! Everyone else go home we have gone in a different direction for the trainee! Thank you!" The woman then stepped down from the stage and walked into a door labeled, OFFICIALS ONLY. The guards were dragging me away, I fought as hard as I could but my efforts were useless. I see some of the woman leaving, relieved they would stay with their families. They were getting distance, but before they became little nothings, I saw my sister, the one person I didn't want to let down, crying in a way I had never seen her
cry before..
