Its now December 3rd, and its absolutely freezing outside.
I threw on my jacket and walked out the door, I have to go to school even when its like 10 degress, ah school is amazing, right?
Ryder texted me telling me he was sick so he wasn't going to school, so I put my headphones and started listening to my favorite album by Twenty One Pilots, Blurryface. I played one of my favorite songs, The Judge, as I walked down the snowy hill.

I walked into school, dealing with the same process I do everyday. But something actually happened. As I was grabbing my backpack a bullet passed by my ear and made my ear ring like crazy. I grabbed my ear in shock and fear, the ringing wouldn't stop. It finally stopped and my breathing went back to normal, I turned around to see who did it, only to see all black.

I woke up to the smell of gunpowder and sweat. I could see again, but when I looked around I saw a bunch of people in black masks, and...Blaze!?
"Blaze, where are we?!" I yelled in a raspy voice. I cleared my throat as she only responded with putting her finger up and saying, "you'll see. Don't worry."
"What do you mean I shouldn't worry?! I don't know these people, and you guys technically kidnapped me." I said leaning back against the seat I was in.
"Everything is alright, ma'am. You and your family are safe, we just need you for something." Someone who had a very deep voice responded which made me shut up.
The van we were in stopped. Everyone got up, including me, and we exited through the back doors, I stepped out to see a world unknown. It was destroyed, desitmated, gone. Things were everywhere, houses down, bodies laying, and more.
"Let's go." One guy my age said, grabbing my arm and gently pulling me with him.
"Who are you?" I said bluntly.
"Who are you?" He asked, taking his hand off of my arm and looking at me. He wasn't to bad looking, to be honest, he had striking green eyes, brown hair and he looked really strong.
"I asked first." I said, raising an eyebrow.
"Ugh, fine. I'm Hunter. Now who are you?" He said copying me by raising his eyebrow too.
"I'm Finn." I said extending my hand.
We shook hands, "I like your name, it fits you." He said, staring at me.
"Thanks, now let's actually go." I said, grabbing his hand and pulling him into the building.

"Now, some of you may be confused as to why we're here and what's wrong with the world. But we are an organization that is going to change the world. We are at war with the Reds, and some people who aren't in the Reds, are fighting us." This man countinued on by saying how this will change our society for the better.
"If you're new here, there's a high chance that you met someone and they introduced themselves to you. They will take you to your room so you can change and come back out for training." And with that we left to our rooms. You would think they would give me a girl because every girl except for me had a girl escort and roomate. Eh, whatever, at least Hunter is pretty cute.
"This is our room, room #34." He said, opening the door revealing a room with two beds, two closets, and a bathroom. Everything was mostly black or grey.
"Here are your clothes." Hunter said gesturing to the outfit on my bed. It was black leggings, a gray tank top, black combat boots, and a black combat jacket. I picked up my clothes and headed towards the bathroom.
"Where are you going?" Hunter asked.
"To the bathroom to change, duh." I said, and started walking again.
"Most people would just change right here." He said, wiggling his eyebrows. "Well then, I'm not most people, am I?" I said, winking, and then shutting the bathroom door to change.

4:08 pm, December 3rd, 2034.
"Okay, we're gonna start working on shooting a handgun, you have to at least hit the target or get near it." Hunter told me.
"Put two hands on the gun, and one finger on the trigger." He instructed, helping me.
"Now you are gonna want to keep your breathing steady. If you move the slightest bit, it could throw you off. And we can't have you getting hurt." He said and backed away to give me more room.
I nodded, then I shot the gun. The recoil wasn't to bad, and my aim wasn't that far off, plus it was my first time ever shooting a gun.
"Was that your first time ever shooting?" Hunter asked me.
"Yeah." I said, scared.
"You okay?" He asked, putting a hand on my shoulder.
"Yeah. I have always had a fear of guns, but I'll get over it." I said.
"Okay. Well, you did good for your first time! We'll just work a little harder on your aim."
"Are you saying I have bad aim?" I said jokingly.
"Psh, yeah. My aim is so much better!" He said.
"Alright, go ahead if you think you're so good." I said handing him the gun.
He shot it right on the target.
"Told ya I was better!" He said.
I sighed. Then we continued talking and occasionly practicing more. Hunter and I are going to be good friends, but hopefully more than friends. ;)
