Kids From Yesterday -MCR killjoy fanfic

Chapter 3

She instantly grabbed my wrist, dragging me closer into the darkness.

I quickly looked behind me, to see the other 4 draculoids following us.

They hadn't said a word...

But no one else was following us, so I picked up my speed.

She led me towards a shadier area, farther away from the group.

Suddenly, shots could be heard going off.

Screams erupted from within the cages, sobs and cries following shortly after.

I guarded my head with my free arm, as we sped up our jog.

Suddenly we stopped.

She quickly looked around. She reached her hand up, swiftly pulling her mask off her face.

I watched as her bright green, short hair stood out once she removed the mask, her bright silver eyes masked in a thick layer of makeup.

"Follow my lead!"

I stared stunned for a moment. I was in a daze..but I wasn't sure whether to kill her..or follow her.

But just as I was about to raise my gun, the other four dracs pulled off their masks as well.

I stared awed, as the four boys I knew from before revealed their complete identity.

But I've seen them before...but where? They were so familiar...yet so different.

They ran after her close behind, like they had trained for this to happen.

"C'mon!" She ordered.

I decided to follow along. Whatever they had planned apparently was important..and I was already dragged into it.

But I quickly stopped, as I approuched where they had also stopped.

I gazed into her cage..her soft brown hair falling beautifully over her shoulders, and down her back.

I knelt down, never taking my eyes off of her.

It was coming back to me...this girl...the boys.

I had seen them before! It was the images..the images in my sleep. But how could I see her? I don't know her..

The green haired girl interupted my thoughts.

"Take off your mask."

I looked up at her, remembering that I had it on.

In all of my time that I had been here...not a day had I ever taken off my mask.

I looked back inside the cage, to see the girl beginning to wake up.

She lifted her face, her eyes immedietely landing on me.

Her eyes shot open. Suddenly she began to tremble, tears forming in her eyes.

Gunshots continued to go off in the distance, slowly getting closer.

"No..don't hurt me..please! I need to see my sister!" She whimpered.

"Take off your mask!" The green head said again.

I quickly peeled it away, letting my hair fall freely in a long waterfall down my back.

I blinked my eyes, finally having some fresh air on my face.

She stopped breathing.

I looked closely at her, my heart rate quickening.

"...Nebula? Is it really you?"

She slowly came closer to me, but I backed away.

"Who's Nebula?" I asked the green haired girl.

The girl in the cage stopped short, furrowing her eyebrows.

"No time. We need to get you out of here." She interupted.

I stepped back, fuzzy images flying through my head.

I blinked my eyes, trying to force them away.

The green haired girl bent down, fumbling with the code to unlock the cages.

The four men kept their eyes on me, like they were studying me. The most intense gaze was from the brunette..the one who I felt more earie around. Something didn't feel right...but not exactly in a horrible way.

"HEY!" a sudden voice yelled in our direction.

I spun around, raising my gun, just to see that thousands of other guns were pointed at us.

Sirens began blaring in every direction, ringing in my ears.

"Run!" The green head yelled.

Just as she said that, I instinctively swiveled around, sprinting after the others.

One of the boys swung the cage door open, scooping up the undressed killjoy.

We ran as fast as we could, as lazor beams shot past our heads.

I blindly followed my new group, gliding down unrecognizable corridors.

Suddenly a door was swung open, revealing a burst of sunlight.

I was immedetely caught off guard, stumbling after them.

"C'mon!" Someone urged.

I forced my legs to work, pushing my body forward.

We blindly ran out into the vast, hot desert, free from the Better Living facility.
