Apocalypse

Chapter 7

Ava

What.

No. how could he be him?

Harry, the hot, yet seemly wimpy (even though his tanned, muscular arms can be seen through his shirt) and soft attitude, was the Wastelands newest hero DJ Ghost has been ranting about for the past 2 days?

How could her, Theresa, and Madi carry through with their plan, if it meant possibly killing DJ's new favorite person? not even mentioning how extremely hot, British, tan, -

Ok, stop.

Time was running out though! They don't have enough of it to find some other sucker to use...

Ava pondered over this new information, tripping and falling inside her head, as she held Harry in her arms, leaning against the wall next to him.

He smells good. Like mint.

Theresa and Madi were back huddling over the radio listening to the rest of the broadcast like they always do.

Harry's breathing slowed as he gradually fell asleep, she blushed as his head unintentionally fell on her shoulder and his arms slipped around her waist. As much as Ava would love to cuddle up next to him forever, she knew there was to much to discuss, so after a few more minutes she slipped from his grasp and crawled over to her friends.

"Have fun?" Madi asked, sarcasm lacing her voice.

"He needed comforting!" Ava defended, her cheeks turning red. Shaking her head she continued to talk. "Tess, are you listening?"

Theresa was sitting a little ways away staring out the window swaying side to side slightly.

Madi face palmed. "She doing it again. TESSA!"

Theresa has a little "dance" as the girls called it, that she did when she was bored, eating, or distracted. She doesn't even realize sometimes.

Theresa jumped. "What? Sorry."

"We're having an important discussion over here!" Madi whisper-yelled.

Theresa blushed and scooted closer.

Madi was the first to speak up again. "Guys, we have to carry through with this plan, Cat has been locked in there for way to long, We need to get her out now! I don't care who we send in anymore!"

"Look, DJ is all over this guy, who knows what she'll do when she finds out we sent him to his death." Ava argued

"Plus he's hot!" Theresa added.

"Ok first, she might not even find out!" Madi said ignoring Theresa. "And second, who says he'll die? I mean this kids a trained soldier, and he's done shit like this before."

"Madi, you and I both know DJ sees everything. She will know. Plus, Harry barely got out of his first attempt alive, and that was with a bunch of others. What he did is nothing like what we're doing anyways, we are trying to save a life, and he was just blowing shit up!"

Theresa started speaking after Madi didn't reply. "Guys... I have an idea! Let's go in with him, I mean wear pretty kick-ass, we-"

"No! We can't risk our lives, we are still on a mission, Cat getting trapped in that building was just a minor detour!" Madi yelled, raising her voice.

Ava looked at Harry sadly, not wanting to argue with them. His face looks so soft, his lips, full and-

"Madi we have wasted way to much time already, this is the only way! We have to stop picking off homeless people from the street to do our dirty work! You are being so greedy!" Theresa practically yelled, her lip splitting open again. Madi didn't reply after a while, the only sound in the room was Harry's snores and the radio playing music that was left on.

Suddenly the radio's song was cut off and caught the girls attention as DJ Ghost's voice spoke up.

"LISTEN UP KIDS! This is DJ Ghostie, delivering an important message to the people of the Wasteland:

In this hell-hole we call life, you will be alone. And when you are alone you will get scared, and fearing the Wasteland will lead to you just barely surviving or possibly your destruction. Well guys, I don't want to survive. I want to live. And guess what, the best way to live is to find people equally scared as you are, and make each other strong.

But of course, living in the Wasteland with others leads to choices, and deciding what choices you will make with your friends can tear each other apart. Then you're back to square one. What you must do is look past yourselves, and figure out what will be best for all of you. There will be risks, but in the end, you did the best you could right?

Also just a precaution: please try to avoid making friends with someone who will stab you in the back while your sleeping.

Anyways guys, it's a tough world, so never take anything for granted, relish every moment 'cuz it could be what kills you."

Her voice cut off and the song resumed. The girls let it play for a while until Madi spoke.

"That, that was just a little to perfect huh?"

Theresa was beaming. "Ava was right! She is always listening, she wants us to save Cat, and carry on the mission. she knows we can do it, I can feel it!"

Ava grinned a little and gave Theresa a side-hug. "I can feel it to."

Madi rolled her eyes and Ava let go of Theresa, also wrapping Madi in a hug.

"I was going to be destroyed before you found me, ya' know." Ava whispered

Madi sighed and hugged her back. "I know."

Suddenly Harry awoke, sitting up extremely fast screaming. He was covered in sweat and breathing heavily.
