The Exiles

Part 4

As soon as the duo left the group a tanner girl with dark hair saw the dinner doors shut.

Her hand enlaced with a younger boys.

They quickly but carefully walk up to the glass doors and softly tapped on them trying to not catch the attention of any geeks around.

Eliza hears the soft knock from behind the diner counter.

She peered over the side to check if the noice was coming from a geek or not.

Her eyes connect with the younger boys and she immediately dropped the can in her hand and ran over to the door to let the boy in.

After unlocking the door she rushed the new duo into the red themed room with a black and white checkered pattern on the floor.

Gabe slowly walked into the room after hearing the loud opening and shutting of the glass doors.

"Who the hell are they?" Gabe asked the girl in front of him.

"They were at the door, I didn't want a geek to get them." Eliza tried to tell the boy to make an excuse for her stupid decision.

Gabe sighed as his hand ran through his hair trying to evaluate the situation the older girl has now put them in.

"Who are you guys?" Gabe said to the girl that is now sitting at a booth with the child that came with her.

"This is Stevey and I'm Blue." She said with a strangely enthusiastic smile.

"Thats not a name that's a color," Gabe comment and the girl just shrugged at the boys words.

"How many geeks have you killed?" Gabe begins to question her.

"To many" she responds as she looks down at the black haired boy beside her.

"How many people have you killed?" He asks her as he starts to slowly head over to the counter area.

"None" she responds almost appalled by his question.

"Why?" He asks as he grabs two cans and two fresh spoons.

"Are you really asking me why I haven't killed anyone?" The mysterious girl responds to the boys strange questions.

"Yeah it's pretty weird for you and this boy to be all alone out there and not had to protect yourselves, I've seen what it's like out there." Gabe says as he lays the food and spoons on the table in front of them. "Or are you guys actually alone?"

"I never said I didn't protect us, I just never took a life and yes we are alone." Blue says as she moves the can closer to the boy.

They both begin to eat and Gabe heads into the back room with a sigh and begins to tell Hadassah about the situation.

———————————————————————

Bryan peaks in through the large store front window to see if the boy he was told about was in there.

Instead he saw geeks limping through the isle.

Bryan's snooping drew attention to himself and a geek cane over and immediately began to bang on the window, alerting its friends of a fresh meal outside.

He walks back over to Olivia, and they both walk around to the back of the store.

Knifes tightly held in their hands, as they both walk around the corner of the store.

Bryan obviously expect something to occur so he step forward a bit.

Bryan motioned to Olivia to stay by the dumpster as he walks over to the large green door.

He uses the back of his large hand to knock on the door in front of him, "Hey, Dude if your in there open up." Bryan places his ear on the door and sighs.

"Hey, we know you're here, we just wanna ask you about our friends." Olivia says as she is now at Bryan's side.

Again they got no response, "He probably already moved on, he might have heard of the geeks coming up." Bryan sighed almost with relief.

"Leave your weapons down there, there's a ladder on the other side." A familiar voice said from the roof.

Bryan look over to Olivia to see her dropping her knife and quickly moving over to the rusty unstable ladder.

"Olive," Bryan harshly whispered to the girl who had begun to climb up the ladder. "Olivia, be careful."

The girl sighed "Yes mom," before continuing up the side of the building.

A slight gust of wind blew as she wiped the sweat off her burnt and hot forehead.

A boy in all black stood on the middle of the roof.

His black hair grown out and a rifle hung off his shoulder.

As soon as her brown eyes met his she felt her knees go weak.

A tear formed in the corner of her eye as she ran towards the dirt covered boy and she wrapped her thin pale arms around his neck.

"Kevin"
