Kendall was any other normal sixteen year old girl, she thought... An unexpetd series of events occurs, shaping her into what nobody expected. The decaying world tries to beat the most strong willed humans down, as the light that used to be fade...
With my face smashed against the glass, I watched as street signs passed. As cars zoomed to places of safety, or they hoped so. Laws went out the door in society at the snap of a finger. I didn't say a word, I didn't even cry. There was no time for crying or breaking down. Moving on was what I had to do. And I had to do it quick, or I just might get all of us killed.
Everything was hard to comprehend. My mind was a mess, an unclean-able mess. Xander reached his hand to the back and I looked at him, giving him a small smile and grabbing a hold of it. Strength. He was trying to give me strength. He was showing me that I was not alone and I could make it. And I know I can. I know it.
"We need gas..." Xander had muttered. We all nodded our heads in agreement. The truck made its way onto the highway once again. We drove to the nearest gas station in look of gas. When we got to the gas station, people were running in and out of the small building. There was yelling of anger and fear. The homeless were begging for help, some holding tiny children. It broke me in half seeing Mekhl being so powerless in a world that needs the most power you can have at the moment. Glass was broken. People were lying on the ground, either dead or unconscious.

"We gotta help these people guys..." I muttered. "We can't... We've gotta help ourselves right now... I'm sorry Kendall..." Jett for once in his life sounded sorrowful for another person that was not himself or a girl he was looking to get with. I didn't speak, I only looked to him and nodded. Beginning to get out of the car, but I was pushed back by Jett.
"We need you with the supplies in the car and with the little squirt..." Xander looked back. They both hopped out of the car and began to run. Shoving past people to get supplies. Jett ran out with two handheld baskets of what looked to be water, flashlights, and a lot of snacks. He threw them in the back with me and ran back to collect more. Xander ran out with two gas containers, he began to pour the gas that was freely being pumped onto the ground. I watched as he squatted and continued to pump it into the can.
A man came out of nowhere and pushed Xander away from the can and went off running with the gas. "HEY!" I jumped out of the truck, sprinting towards the man. Adrenaline and anger was rushing through my body. I quickly grabbed a random pole off the ground. My whole mind was gone and when I reached the man's car I hit the pole on the back of his head.
"Fucker!" I shouted at the now unconscious man. "Oh my god, Kendall... You're a beast!" Xander ran up hugging me. I stared at him, eyes wide with shock, "I can't believe I did that..." Xander picked up the gas throwing it in the truck bed, following after him, I jumped into the passenger's seat. Xander jumped back into the driver's seat.
We heard a couple more items being thrown in the back and the door being opened, "Mind if I tag along?" Looking to the back Jett was standing there with Xander's girlfriend and also my best friend, Addie. "Oh my god Addie! Get in here! Holy shit you're alive!" Right after saying that she hopped into the car.
