The Thot Patrol

Chapter Two - Time Passes

Five years had passed since Milk had became a general of the Thot Patrol. Every member had taken a blood oath on that same wooden board. Since then, many more had joined the ranks. The rations were at a steady supply, and thots were not as dangerous now. They had real weapons.

His brother, Blue, had fallen extremely ill. He wasn't turning into a thot, but the Medics needed a special medicine for his illness. They had finally planned out a place where it was at, and they would be going on a supply run soon.

Until then, Milk could only sit next to the worn bed and hope Blue would last. His eyes were closed and his breathing was shallow, but he looked like he was asleep. His hair was matted to his face from a bit of sweat, so he must've been in a nightmare.

He wasn't sure how he even got sick. He had never been touched by a thot, but he did show signs of feeling ill. It was after one of the medics gave him an odd medicine. Solace had an odd look on her face too, but she said it would help.

He had no choice but to believe her. She was a medic, after all. She swore her allegiance to the Thot Patrol.

He looked down at his brother one more time and left the room, walking into one where the soldiers hung out in off time. Without assignments, they just chatted lazily until they had something to do.

Stretch was there, along with Galaxy and Ice. Stretch was tanned with light brown hair and yellow eyes. He was always confident in himself, often bragging on how many thots he could take at once. Which was four, plenty for a man his age.

Galaxy was a girl with long purple hair and blue eyes with light skin, but she was still a bit tan. She was cool and laid back, but expressed her hatred for almost everyone freely.

Ice had a white mohawk and crystal clear baby blue eyes, and pale skin. She was spunky and didn't really listen to anyone except for Blue, and rumours had it around the complex was that she was intimidated by his stare. Like most of them.

Milk was the good cop, Blue was the bad cop. Milk was always the one they came to for mild problems. If it was bad, it went to Blue. Milk just couldn't stay mean. It wasn't his nature. For Blue... he wasn't sure what happened behind closed doors.

But now, only good cop was around and he was overwhelmed. News of thots, border skirmishes, and possible new outbreaks in the area were frightening. Thots were taking out nearby gangs with a new filter.

It only got more worrisome as they slowly approached the base. At this point, they'd be here in a couple days at the least. What was he to do?
