Killjoys: Next Generation

Chapter Six

Bi-Liner

"Dracs up ahead, again." Ferrett says over the radio. I pull out my gun and so does Roadie, his gun is lime green.

"Nice gun!" I say to him.

"Thanks, you too!" He responds. I point my gun at the dracs and start shooting. He shoots too, and four other guns join us. I look back and see Bandit with both hands on the wheel.

I grab the radio and say: "Bandit if you don't start shooting I'll shoot you!" I turn around again and see her holding her gun up. I give her a thumbs up and laugh, before turning around to see all the dracs are dead.

"Your laugh is really pretty!" He yelled over the engine.

"Thanks! I try, y'know!" I laugh at my sarcasm. He laughed too.

"I'm sorry about your dad! He was my favorite original!"

"He died doing what he loved! I'm sure he would love to hear that! I didn't actually want to be a killjoy, I wanted to start a family! But I'm glad he pressured me into it, I made a lot of friends, killed a lot of dracs too!" I could tell this kid was smiling. He thought I liked him.

"A family?"

"Yeah, I didn't want to end up like my mom! She died shortly after giving birth to me! BLI shot her!"

"I'm sorry, so you have no family?!"

"None." I heard him mutter wow.

"Yeah, I lost my family too, when BL took over Japan. I came here because I wanted to become a killjoy. So here I am." Roadie explained.

I stopped talking because I didn't want him to know I was crying. I loved my dad, and now he was dead. But I was headed to Battery City, where BLI is. I could-no, my friends don't want me dead, too.

"We need to go in at night, it's too early we can stop here." Jess said over the radio.

"That's a good idea." I say back.

"Okay guys, we'll pull over." Ferrett said.

"Here?" I say.

"We're you not listening? Here!" Ferrett said. He should change his name to I-Got-A-Stick-Up-My-Ass-Oh-Wait-It's-A-Dick. I snorted at my joke. Did I just snort?! Ew.

I hopped off and pulled out my gun. Everybody did the same and we stayed like that for about ten minutes. Bandit did the "it's safe" symbol and you could see everyone relax.

"Who wants dinner?" Missile Kid said.

"We don't have any food with us." Bandit explained.

"You don't think your dads would hide food? We stopped here multiple times, anyone want to come with me?" Jess, Ferrett, and Roadie left with her.

"So, how was Roadie?" Bandit asked with a smirk.

"He was cool, he would make a great asset to the team." I replied coolly, I know where this is going.

"We mean, how was his flirting!" Dye hard said.

"He talked a lot, I don't like him though. I'm gonna take a nap, I'll be in the car." I walked back to the car.

I was half asleep when I heard people walking around out side of the car. I grabbed my gun and cocked it. I peeked out the window and saw dracs, and is that Korse? Oh damn! It is.

"Killjoy, get out of the car." I followed directions and calmly got out of the car. I looked around and saw my friends watching from a distance.

"Where are the others?" He said in his raspy voice.

"I don't know! They left me here to guard the cars." I looked over to where Bandit was hiding and saw her smile.

"So they just left you here, alone?" I nodded, "At least your parents would stick together. Your father died yesterday didn't he? Fun Ghoul was it? Shame, left his daughter with no training." Oh he was going to get it.

Right at that moment six dracs fell to the ground including the one restraining me. I grabbed my gun from off the ground and started shooting. The other killjoys came and stood next to me

"You're Korse? I thought he would've looked better, seeing as he lives in Battery City." Bandit joked.

"You all are just kids. Go run home to mommy." Missile Kid smirked at Korse's comment.

"Yeah, where is my mom?" She questioned.

"How about, one of the young ones come with me, and I'll return your mother to you." He said. I looked up at Missile Kid and smiled.

"Deal, but I'm the one coming with you." I said. If I can't have my parents, at least one of my friends could.

"Leave the gun." He directed.

I handed my gun to Dye Hard and told her, "Keep it safe, I'll be back."

"Okay, I will." She nodded and smiled.

"Let's go." He pushed me forward. Once I was in their car he turned around and said, "Keep Running."

"Let's hope you enjoy your time in prison." One of the dracs said shoving me into a cell.

"At least I don't have to wear those filthy masks." I mumbled. Yippee, thrown in prison at seventeen!

Negotiations are key in this world.

So long
