Second day out alone after running away from the group, Wolf cried the whole night because he snagged his side on a thorn bush. What a cry baby! Meanwhile, I've been keeping watch for Students ( Evan's Gang) since I'm dangerously close to Gideon High.
I heard two last night, but they totally missed me ( dumb asses). Wolf and I left the camp earlier this morning, due to us being so dangerously close I guess I have to go another way to the Old Cannibal Camp by the Buffalo Terminal.I head for a highway, the forest opens into a long endless road of tar. I quickly hop across, stopping behind a car every few minutes just in case there's someone firing at me. I now always have that strange feeling that someone is watching, World Government? The Students? Our group? Or someone else? I stand up, aware of my surroundings. Wolf trots along side me as we continue, the sound of air being chopped rings in my ear. I hide behind a car as three helicopters fly by, their headed towards Buffalo. Crap! Well that ruins my plan!
" Ok.....Wolf......we are going another way," I sigh, giving him a hunk of robin I shot.
It's been three days, so I will have to take another pill in a bit. Due to the whole fact that what they are doing is destroying the Niagara Falls Safe Haven.My plan is to get to the border, find a dock, hopefully a cruise ship (if they are still running a transporting people) board it and head to the Florida Safe Haven. Which I know they won't destroy since it's by the ocean and countries can trade supplies.
Wolf stops, his ears pointed. " What?" I hiss at him. He ignores me, quickly turning to see the other side of the road. " What?" I repeat. He dashes into the forest, completely forgetting about me. As gunfire sprays the road, I run after Wolf. An insane, sharp pain hits me suddenly. I screech in pain as I roll to the floor, I hear cheers of joy as three Students run toward me. I lie on my belly, looking as limp as possible. Trying to act dead, blood pouring from my abdomen. Stay calm, if you act dead they'll think your dead! I tell myself. Everything flashes through me, my brother, my parents, the past year, Lee. Lee, oh my god! What was I thinking?! I should've brought him with me.I feel the tip of a gun poking my back, they then kick me. The pain from the wound, as well as the hard boot is unbearable. But my desire to live keeps my quiet, I have to live, for Lee, for Wolf, for my family.........
" She looks dead! We killed Caroline! Evan will be so happy!"
" Don't be so happy! We still have to find her friend as well as the traitors!"
" But Evan and his bride will be proud that we killed her!"
" Yeah, I guess!" I hear someone pat the other two on the back.
Evan has a bride? Since when did a sixteen year old have a wife already?!
Well shit! This world is screwed..........I stay still for a long time, waiting for about an hour till everything that moved was out of sight. I then attempt to get up, pair jabbing me in my spine. I then stumble through the forest, looking for any sign of Wolf. Or anyone really. The corners of my eyes begin to blacken, the darkness spreads across my eyes as I fall to the floor..............
