I woke up in my apartment and Circe was creepily watching me. Which i was finding very disturbing. "You ready to go? I mean after you brush your hair." Circe smirked. "It looks like you fell down Mount Rushmore made out of hair dryers turned on high." She smirked. We both got ready to go on A little mission I didn't pay to much attention but she told me it wouldn't be to bad. We walked out of our apartment and I admired how beautiful she was. "May I have another kiss?" I asked happily. Her smile turned into A frown "I was just caught in the moment it didn't mean anything" Then scurried off, And That hurt. We walked to the gathering room and we saw our group. Circe looked at me and sighed "You realize you need to wear something to show your anarchy right?. Here take my jacket its the same one you would have anyways". "Thanks" I said. We walked to this garage area and got in some jeeps. I made sure not to sit in a place I might fall out. A tall muscular blonde stood up and started talking "Listen up we will be in groups of four so get ready to scavenge everything you need here are your backpacks pass them around". "Who's that?" I wondered. "That's Carter he's my friend" Explained Circe. We got up to get in our groups. It was Circe, Jake, Me, And some other kid i don't know. We walked around the old rotted down New York City. I always wanted to explore this place. I've always seen it from a view, I've never been able to go inside it. Circe walked in with caution. "Are you going to ignore what happened earlier?" I Asked hurt from what she said. "Ya that was the plan but I guess I cant anymore, Listen I had someone and we got close too close and when he died it killed me I don't wanna make that mistake again I'm sorry." I walked away I cant believe I let myself get remotely close to her I should have known what would happen. Anyways back to the mission. The huge cities Like Chicago, New York, And Washington DC were contaminated with chemicals . You may be thinking then why are we here. Well it's not covered in chemicals, The Confederate just didn't want us to go in the city. Circe's best friend told me to go find something good. I zoned out of there conversation because I'm not sure how these friends work. I've never had them The Confederate was full of kids who weren't like me. The girls there hated me almost as bad as I hated them. They never talked to me but told there friends I loved them. I never talked with many people there but I had ears like A bat. I could hear anything as long as it was in A 20 foot range of me. I stopped at a place called Hot Topic. I saw the fashion clothing and loved it. I picked up A phone and a shirt that had a Red Anarchy A on the back. I thought it fit the situation once I tried it on. I picked up some punk shirts. One of them was white, black, and red with words I couldn't read besides an Ø with a line through it. One was weird but I took it anyway. It had a man chilling near a pool with a red car that looked like it had been drawn by a five year old. I got scared because i heard the sound of a Jeep. it passed the store and holy shit I couldn't believe it. It had the Confederate logo on the side with Soldiers in flak jackets. Well I know what will probably happen but I have to check out what they were doing. Horrible idea but again again so is kissing your roommate.
I ran after them but made sure they couldn't see me i smashed through a glass panel because I wasn't watching where I was going. It hurt so bad I felt the pain hit me the second I fell into the glass. I was lucky they stopped. I grabbed my backpack and searched through it to see if there was anything i could use. I was still on the topic of Circe and I but that can wait. I had to use my head and see what was happening. The confederate just got out of there car and not surprisingly they were talking about women. They walked over to a building that looked like it could have been an apartment building. I climbed up to the top of the building next to it and crouched down to get a view of what they were doing. I obviously couldn't see anything. I backed up and jumped to the other building. You are probably thinking about some epic long slow motion jump but nope the buildings were like three feet apart. When I landed I landed on gravel and it hurt. I get hurt a lot if you couldn't tell. I looked around and the roof was just normal three story apartments with gravel on the ceiling. Shit. I heard some noise coming from downstairs and I put my ear to the floor. "I'm telling you I heard something up there!" Said A man with a deep voice. "Screw you guys I'm going upstairs for a smoke break". I was calm one second and terrified the next. I looked around and saw the door where he would get up at. I ran up to the door to hide so that when he opens it I would be behind the door. I heard his footsteps come up and up the stairs until I saw the doorknob turn. The second he opened the door and started walking through I smashed the door shut and knocked him unconscious. I stepped through the door and dragged his body onto the roof. He looked like a redhead lumberjack. Just without the muscle. I opened the door once again and made my way downstairs where I saw more people. I had an idea. Circe had said we can take whatever we want, and these people seemed to have good rifles. I would want a good rifle if I ever wanted to escape that Anarchy facility. I ducked back into the doorway that leads to the roof and searched through the bag Carter gave us and sure enough there was A combat knife. I thought there would have been knowing they were teaching us how to fight. I peeked back out of the doorway and saw three guards playing poker. That's just as many that came here. 3 playing poker and the one guy I took care of on the roof. One of the guys got up and went into another room. This was my chance. I got over to the table fast and picked up the chair of the third man who left and smashed it over the confederate guard and put the combat knife through the other ones hand making him stuck to the poker table.
He screamed out in pain while the other guard was knocked out from the chair hitting his head. I grabbed the Unconscious guards pistol as the last guard ran into the room and I shot him in the foot (I was aiming for his leg) and he dropped over holding his foot so I pistol whipped him. (Always wanted to do that). I turned back around to talk to the last conscious one. "Tell me where the rifles are and you live!" I yelled trying to seem scary. "There over there!" The Guard said as he pointed to a duffel bag on the floor near the doorway to the roof. I sighed in stupidity. I could've grabbed the rifle without all of this. I walked over to the doorway up to the roof and left.
It took about a half an hour to find Someone but I found Carter, With Circe. I walked by her and she frowned and grabbed my arm as I walked past. "Talk now" She whispered in my ear. We walked behind a building and she started questioning me. "Where were you?" She asked. "I was stealing A rifle from the Confederate" I said calmly. She looked at me confused. "The Who now?". Was she new or something? "The confederate you know the military?" I said.
"I have never heard someone call it that it actually makes zero sense why would they be named the Confederate?" She said looking at me like I'm dumb.
"Well I don't know" I said feeling even more dumb.
"Also there was something else I wanted to talk to you about" She said as she looked at me sadly. She kissed me. I loved the fact she did it but I couldn't deal with that now.
"I would love to kiss you too but you have to promise not to leave like that again" I said looking into her beautiful brown eyes. But this time I kissed her. And it felt great. No it felt like.. I was safe.
