ZARA

ZARA 2

"zaaaaarrraaaa..........zarrrrrraaaaaaa..." a soft voice sings to me.i recognize it as my sister.

'no you have to run! Catch me mommy'

"Zaraaaaaa..zaraaaaaaa..." my sweet litttle sisters voice calls again.

I know im sleeping but my dream wont let me escape into the real world. I see everything so clearly. I see me and my family,happy. Enjoying the play ground in the safe zones.

'push me mommy'

Mom walks over to my 5 year old brother. I see her blue eyes light up as she pushes my brother again on the swing.I also watch as her blonde hair blows softly with the wind.She pulls a few strands away from her lips since they stick to her red lip stick.

"Run!Hide,Seek safety!"A frantic  annocmener yells over the tower speakers around us.

Mom looks just as puzzled as me and my dad. Thats when we see them round a corner:Lepords with the eyes of molten lava and fur that seem to carry Hell's very own inferno.Their bodies bursting into flames as they crouch,their stance set to pounce as they try to figure out who they should attack first.

The deathening alarm sounds making all the kids scream in pain as they hold thier ears. I watch as the three Flamers attack a woman after Zoning in on her,her skin turns shiny and the metal pole she was standing next to melts to a pool of liquid gray consuming her body in shiny silver.

Thats all it took for my mom and dad to start running. its pretty much a blur after that,It all happens so fast. We run home. Just before my mom could get through the door with my brother,he was yanked back by a flamer my mom pulled on his hands and my father grab his legs in a desperate attempt to get him back,though we all knew he was already dead.

Thats when the chemical mist was acctivated and the flamer let go, reluctantly,disinagrated slowly before us,releasing my  screaming brother.

Ill never forget my parents cries or the way my older brothers body looked.We all watched as his skin slowly appeared As if lava took over him,Sitting his veins aglow.Right before he died he looked at me and thats when his body crumbled in to smokey gray ashes in moms shaky hands.

I still remember the panic in his eyes.

"Zara!"

I jump up with a jolt panting and survaing my surroundings. I wipe my head with the back of my hand and find a stray tear rooling down my cheek. I end up grabbing my head and try to calm my heart like i was taught.My sister just wrapps me in a hug and holds me as my breathing calms.

"Same flashback?"she wonders.

"yeah,same dream" i answer.

"It wasnt a dream,zara" my sister stops rubbing my back suddenly.leaning away from our embrace to look at me.

"its never gonna be just a dream, zara, never."she states in a sad tone.

I grab a hydrated liquid out the fridge. As i chug it i exmaine the amount of meat and weight builder products we have.

They continue trying to fatten us up so the flames are satisfied.Pathetic.

The clean's are so lovely

The people in section red,my section, are rebellious. We train to stay fit.We study to fight.We, live, breath, and learn fighting.Its our thing.

Everyone of course wants to get to the sky.But reds,well,we have different reasons.

Its not just for actual protection. Its for revenge And their number one on my list.

I finish drinking my drink as i look out the window to the huge platform sitting beautifully bright and clean in the dusty surroundings.

I will be the one to take it down.Its all in the plan. Only a matter of time now.

With determination in my heart and my mindset of revenge i follow my blonde haired purple eyed sister out of the house.

"you know you could have stayed home." shes looking over at me as we walk to training.

"And who else would be there to walk you to class and protect you siskie?"

She blushes and hides behind her hair.I know exackly where her brain went.

"James will protect you if i die,im sure."

I state matter of factly.She stops and pulls on my hand tugging me backwards to a holt.

"Thats not gonna happen right?"she ask as she chews on her bottem lip nervously serching my eyes for the truth.

"Never.Im always here,forever." I reasure her as i sqeeze her hand tightly dragging her towards our training classes.

"Good" she says a moment later smiling at me.
