The sun was becoming unbearable as I worked.

My back was aching and so was my feet.Well at least I have 5 minutes more.

As I looked around I could see everyone putting in their hardest.
Having to rebuild this hospital isn't really the easiest thing,but we'll make it.

A lot of people have been getting sick lately and we needed a sheltered place for them.So we decided to build a little hospital .We gathered around scraps and metals to stabilize it enough.

Some housewives would come and bring us as Much food as they could spare.

The government is to cheap to even give us a ration,so it's basically finder's keepers.

However here in the "good part" of town we work together and share our food.If someone choose to disagree to that rule then they get tossed to the bandits.

The bandits are a group of people who live together but don't share food clothing or anything else.They may steal and kill but never share.
Thank goodness I didn't make up the rules.

Well we call ourselves the People because we're the most humane group.

The other group is called the government,which pretty much describes everything. They're the most powerful people.So all the celebrities and governors all live there.

Some people didn't like the way any of the group's worked so the went rogue.All of the rogues are either dead or begging the government to accept them.

Well ME, Kira. Was chosen into this because of my father.After everything happened, my mom and I got separated.She was attacked by a rogue was never seen.My dad was killed by a disagreeing man who then went rogue.

SO here I am,with no family and volunteering to make this place better.

We don't have a wall but the bandits know to stay away, even though we still get a few every now and then.And well the rogues, don't really like anybody.

The government doesn't care about anybody but them.

"Hey Kira Times up" a trooper said

a trooper is kind of the police around here to help maintain the peace.My father was the captain of the troopers and always had a trooper watching me,but now that he's gone that one trooper has other people to watch over.

I got up and brushed off my knee which was probably swollen right now.

everybody here volunteers since we don't have much money to pay.In return you get breakfast lunch and dinner.

Breakfast usually consist of an Apple two boiled egg and a bottle of water.

Lunch is better. A small bowl of fruit and a bowl of soup and crackers, a bottle of water.

Dinner is broccoli and rice,water.

We try to grow our own food and we're doing ok with that but it hasn't been raining much so they're kind of thinking of taking out lunch.

I walked over to one of the troopers and got my Dinner.
As I walked home I passed by my dad's gravestone and sat down.
I always came here to eat dinner.

"Hey papa"

I opened the container to find some broccoli and rice with a spoon full of chicken.

I sighed remembering what steak and mashed potatoes used to taste like.

I could already feel my dad glaring at me for thinking about the old days.

I laughed at the thought of him staring at me with that silly face he makes when he wants me to think he's mad.

I ate in silence, staring at the gravestone.

I could feel myself relax as if he was with me.

I finished my food and and kissed my Palm putting it on the stone.

"See you tomorrow Papa"

Making my way home.

***
I unlocked the doors to the house. It was a modern two story house,Painted in burgundy.

I wanted to have people live here but they would rather stay somewhere else.

I walked to the refrigerator to find some leftover soup,and pilled up- half empty water bottles.

I took all the bottles out and mixed the together until each were full.Leaving me with six water bottles.

I left two in the fridge and stuffed my bag with the four,and also the soup.

I walked to Mrs.Jeffrey's house.

Mrs.Jeffrey was one of my mother's many friends.Unfortunately Mrs.Jeffrey can't work as Much as she used too.She's having twins and needs to rest.Her husband is my father's bestfriend and works with me on the field.Since Mrs.Jeffrey can't really work she doesn't get much to eat.Just lunch and leftover breakfast,if she's lucky.

Mr.Jeffrey and I save the rest of our food to give off to her.Since she is eating for two.

As I was about to knock, I heard screams from across the street to find a men fighting another men.

One of the guys had black hair and wore all black.

The other was totally opposite had blonde hair and was wearing dark green.

Two troopers came running in trying to break it up.

Well I only walked closer to the fight until I was arm length away.

My father taught me how to fight and hold a gun since I was small,for all the little boys at the park that wanted to play rough.

I watched how the blonde took a hit in the nose. And I knew that someone had to stop this.I leaned in and tripped both of them and pinned them both down in just 4 seconds.

The blonde's bleeding nose came to a stop and the brunette was thrashing against my hold. Before I knew it the troopers threw me off,harshly and grabbed the two boys and dragged to their car.

Time froze when a black car with a black and blue flag came up ahead and stopped.

This is not good.
