"YO STOP CHEATING", Suno yelled at Ed.
"YOU JUST TRASH BRO", Ed yelled back. With one final missile, Suno destroyed the last of Ed's ships.
"HOE STOP HACKING", Ed exclaimed.
"HoE StOp HaCKiNG", Suno mocked. I stopped following their conversation and directed it outside. Things were peaceful. Nothing happened for about a whole month. We hadn't ran into any other people but we were still going on our scavenging trips. So when I looked outside to see someone pouring gasoline around the yard it was quite shocking. I ran to the front door and shouted at him.
"What are you doing?!", He looked at me, and with a snap the fuel leaped ablaze. I ran into the house.
"We gotta go now!", I said frantically,"Someone's burning down the house". I ran into my room. Riza was still napping. I slapped her awake and told her to come. I made sure Riza was out of the door and went to go grab necessities until I heard struggling. I ran to the front door. 5 strangers and 3 captives. Riza, Ed, Suno. All of them were captured. I ran to the street. The pursuers were close behind me. I darted around the houses and bushes. My pursuers were fast but did they know the neighborhood like I did. I ran to a dead end, but my pursuers weren't even close. I lost them. Black.
Turns out they did know the neighborhood and I was in the back of a trunk. I have no idea what happened to my friends. There was nothing in the back, not that I could see anything. The truck stopped and light hit my eyes. two men grabbed me and walked me into an old mall. This was the first time in weeks I had seen so many people in one place. There seemed to be business in this building. They took me to a cleared out arcade store. There were curtains and candles everywhere. I was put in the center of the room and forced to kneel. A light was turned on and i could see the silhouette of a man.
"Did you attack the two men at the Walmart", the ominous figure said.
"No", I replied cowardly.
"Lies, send him to the labor camps", the man ordered. With that order. A bag was put over my head and they took me away. Back to the truck, and back to the bumpy road.
It took a long time before we reached the "labor camps" I wondered how my friends were, were they dead? were they at labor camps too? They were as powerless as me. What else could happen. The men again pulled me out and forced me to walk. The "labor camp" looked nothing like it's name implied. Buildings were scrunched closely together and there was on wide street in the middle of it all. I was carried into a white office building. I was sat down and the two men left. I looked across the room and a girl, maybe 18 at most was writing something down. She came to me and gave me a number. \
She said," put this on, go to that number house and do what you're told. There's a lot of freedom in this place. But that's if you obey orders, and if not", she pointed to people in red colored sports gear," don't expect to stay alive".
I heeded her orders. I got the house number 33 and another number "245" next to it. My "house" was a long way's from the office building. When I got to it, it was a wide, 2 story building made out of wood. I went to the door. I checked the number again and knocked. waited. and knocked again.
"umm, excuse me", someone said timidly. I looked behind me and saw a girl behind me carrying a bag.
"Oh, It says I'm supposed to be in this house", I state. She grabbed my card, looked at it, gave it back and unlocked the door. Her hair was beige.
