Up In Flames [Original Story] ✓

Shocking revelations and a runaway girlfriend.

Most of the cuts had started to heal and the bruises to fade away. I had a cut on my forehead that was still quite visible and a white bandaged over where the bullet had scrapped, but besides that, I would appear fine to the unknowing eye.

The week off had felt quite nice, me, June and Coden had gotten to spend the time together, explaining to Coden how it all worked and helping the Elders install themselves back in the safe location of the institute. Even though we had been beaten down, more Coden and me then June, we're still forced to help with the cleanup, which involved talking to any Blessed who had been affected and other things.

June handled the online side of cleaning, erasing CCTV footage of the day and trying to create alibis for us in case there were any witnesses. She also went through police files to check if anyone had made any complaints that could possibly be linked to the fight, but it appeared that the lateness had driven all humans away from the secluded area.

But now Monday had approached and to avoid having any problems with the school all three of us were forced to go back to our old routines, at leats the best we could.

I got up from my bed, groaning slightly as my body was still a little ache from the fighting and running around I did. With a lot of effort, I finally push myself off of my bed and towards my wardrobe. Half asleep, I look through my clothes, picking out a black tank top my dad had bought for me a few months ago and my favourite black ripped jeans. I pick out some random underwaer and pull myself towards the bathroom, praying it was unnocupied so I could get my daily routine done and over with.

After a few minutes, I exit the bathroom, the clothes on my body, my hair brushed, a small amount of makeup on and slightly more awake. I make my way towards my room and open the window, noticing the chilly outfit. I grab a black jacket with flower designs on the side, flowers of red, white, blue and other various colours and put it on. I then move towards the drawers and take out a beanie, and take my black boots from the shoe rack. Lastly, I put on small, studd, spiky earrings and change my iphone cover to one relating to one of my favroite series, star trek.

With one last yawn, I close my bedroom door behind me and walk downstairs. My dads reading some stuff, as he always is, his reading glasses sitting on the bruidge of his nose, and June's texting with one hand and eating a bowel of cereal with the other. 

June's wearing a grey, long sleeved hoodie-like tank top with sewn on designs on the top left shoulder (pink lips, a heart, a ranibow and some other adhesives of the same genre) and a pink skirt. She had on tons of accesories, as usual, including grey knee-high socks, a pink flower crown, grey studd earrings,  a pink pusheen cat necklace and her pink 'smart watch'. Her grey trainers were still next to the sofa, along with my bag and her brand new white bag with little designs similar to the ones on her shirt.

I make myself some toast, the sound of me in the kitchen is the only heard throughout the house. We were all tired and none of us wanted to leave the house. The only lucky person was Ellie, who was allowed to stay home and enjoy sleep. Even my dad had to leave the house to go attend some meeting in one of the instutes that even I didn't know about.
