Cassius woke up to the door of her cell opening. In walked two guards with cold eyes and hard faces. "What in the hell is going on?", she asked.

"Prisoner 329, please stand up and face the wall." The guard turned her around and patted her to make sure she didn't have anything on her. Finding nothing, he stepped back and clicked a metal bracelet on her arm making her hiss in pain.

Cassius stood in front of the guards, smirking as she spoke. "You know, I usually am not into this whole kinky role play thing but, for you guys, I think I'll make an exception." One of the guards chuckled and sent her a small smile before returning to his stony expression. "Save the sarcasm for earth, little girl."

Cassius's face scrunched up in confusion before going blank. Why the hell are we going to earth, she thought. As far as she knew, earth was condemned as an unsurvivable wasteland. She couldn't help but think that the council wanted her to suffer before her inevitable death. Cassius wished she had kicked more guard ass before she surrendered and got both her and her best friend arrested. She walked out with the guards trailing behind her when she spotted the brown mop of hair that lied on top of her best friend's head.

She made a move towards him, but a hand shot out to stop her. "Keep it moving, kid." The guard looked her up and down, searching for a sign of resistance. "That's my best friend", she explained, "and I'd like to see him before you send us to die."

The guard furrowed his eyebrows in frustration, knowing she wouldn't give up, and sighed before letting her race to the bug eyed boy. "John, my boy", she called out before diving into his open arms. Murphy instantly pulled her close and nuzzled his face in her hair, breathing in the vanilla and coconut combination of scents she loved to use. "I missed you Agent Butterfly", he sighed into her hair.

She relished the feeling of being in her friend's arms. The two hadn't seen each other in almost a year, the last time being the night they got arrested. It wasn't their proudest moment, and even though Murphy still didn't know the cause of her rash actions, they both knew that it was for a good cause. They had done the right thing. The guard came back, pulling Cassius away from Murphy and towards the drop ship. She looked at the guard who had laughed at her sarcasm and allowed her to see her life long friend. "What's your name?", she asked.

The man stared at her for a moment before replying. "My name is Seth." The girl tested the name in her mind before smiling at him. "Seth, huh? I bet we would've been great friends if I hadn't gotten myself arrested."

The man smiled at the younger girl in front of him. "Maybe", he replied. "May we meet again."

"May we meet again", she repeated.

Cassius didn't remember when nor how she fell asleep, but she surely wish she had stayed that way. Crouching before her was none other than her EX boyfriend, Wells. When she was locked up, the boy that she thought had loved and cared for her had not made one visit to her cell in the entirety of her imprisonment. The puppy love feeling she had for him turned into burning hatred and betrayal. So it wasn't much of a surprise when she angrily pushed Wells out of the way and went on a search for the only person she knew she could trust.

She climbed down to the lower level of the drop ship and found it empty with the door open. What the hell did I miss? The girl shook her thoughts out of her head before heading off to find her best friends. Unlike the other prisoners, she didn't take the time to breathe in the fresh air or admire the beauty of the unknown earth around her. Instead she immediately ran towards Murphy, whom she spotted with two other boys her age.
