Its the morning of my second raid. With my cool new gun in my holster I wait by my bed, perched on the end. You could say that Gee prepairs his hair for no reason, and spends hours doing it. Everyone is sitting silently on their bed waiting for Gee to mess up his hair.

"Gee, move your fat ass!" Ef calls at the bathroom.

I tap my hand on my leg excitedly, in a few hours we will be raiding a building, getting secret information, being Killjoys. What an adventure it will be, I will even get to paint my name on the wall, or my logo. They gave me a small spray can filled with purple pain yesterday, so I could use it. It is safely zipped up in pocket of my leather jacket.

"Okay, lets go." Gee says, emerging from the toilet.

We jog outside to the car, climbing in. Soon we are down the dust track again, radio blaring.

"Listen up! The future is bulletproof! The Aftermath is secondary! Its time to do it now and do it loud! Killjoys make some noise!"

I grin as Ef starts shaking his head around to the rhythm, his hair whipping around him.

"Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na NA!" We all sing in sync with the radio.

"Oh yeah, Jay I forgot to tell you." Gee shouts suddenly, over the rest of the guys singing. "If you get caught, go along with it, we will come back for you within 2 days, if not, try and escape."

He promptly coninues singing.

"What?" I say quietly.

If I get caught. Go along with it? I will get caught?

"What?" I say louder.

"You wanted an adventure, and its not an adventure without a risk, right?" Gee shouts.

"Right..."

"We have been over the plan already, you know what you are doing."

"Its rad as fuck, dont worry!" Ef shouts. "We got your back."

I stare out into the wilderness for a while, thinking about what is going to happen. My dread soon turns into excitement and I feel the gun rub against my leg. I can be a badass and not get told off. I see a building mount the skyline and I feel butterflies form in my stomach.

"Here it is. BL G/I/A/N/T/S unit. We have maps and stuff, so its all going to be a breeze. Jay remember what we have taught you and distract with Ef." Gee says.

I share a look with Ef and he grins.

"Wow, Im so excited." I say.

"Its fun. Like a game- if you will." MK says.

We pull up to the building.

"Ef and Jay, through the front. Rest of us surround corners and make it to the front. Remember the plan. GO GO GO."

Gee, MK and Ar storm off in different directions around the side. I run after Ef who has already started advancing towards the building.

"Is it wise to walk through the main entrance?" I ask.

"No, but we arent wise." Ef replies, a goofy grin on his face.

We storm through the front door, standing in what seems like a lobby.

"Now, we need to go down that left part. You go left I go right, we meet in the centre and leave our mark."

I nod, running down the left corridor, my gun in my palm. Its quiet, only the sound of my boots padding along the linoleum.

The hallway is long. I turn my gun on, pointing it straight ahead. I dont know whether it is unusual for it to be this quiet. I check behind me quickly, slowing down my walking.
