we walked for a while. Sometimes we stop because one of us complained of our legs hurting. But other then that we made good progress. We were in our own minds, thinking of what was to come when we finally see the leader and his clones. It was a quiet walk. Peaceful in a way. some times the silence would get to me and I would either sing to my self or talk to Bethiebaby. Sometimes I would feel Bethiebaby take my hand after she would get done talking to one of the others. The feel of our hands together reassured me that everything would be fine. Still the nervousness of knowing that she I may not make it out of the fight when we find the leader scares me. I'm not ready to leave this world yet.

As we walked memories of my old home filled my head. They were good memories of my family before the fire. My mom was always happy and dad always wanting to hang out. My brother never drank. Life was so much better. After the fire mom took us out of school one day, sat us down and told us that we were moving. Me being only 3 years old didn't know what was going on. My brother understood but was confused about why we had to leave. He was used to come it. After mom told my brother to start packing he picked me up to our room. I didn't have very much toys so he helped me with what I did have. When he was done he sat me down on his bed and told me that everything will be ok. I hear that all the time now. "Everything will be fine." Sometimes when I hear that I think that they are hiding something from me. I want them to tell me something different then everything will be fine.

Hours later we started seeing shadows walking toward us in the distance. There was about 3 or 4 of them that I could tell. There could have been more. I was scared, I was worried that this is where I die, scared for my life. Pictures came back to my mind. But they were different this time. They were memories of mom and dad fighting just after the move. They were inn the bedroom one night and I could hear them because mine and my brother's room was right next to theirs. Me and brother were close. Now I don't even know if he is alive still. Yeah that's the sad part.

I had to admit I was very scared. Was this my last day on earth? Was I going to see the next day? These were the questions that swam through my head before the first signs showed that it was time.

I saw the first line of clones coming closer. And then another. There must have been millions of clones. Their faces were messed up. But then I realized they had masks on. Ugly masks too. Their guns were weird. The first clone raised his gun. Then my stomach dropped. The only thing I thought of was save Bethiebaby. Keep her safe. Don't let her die. I raised my gun and shot the clone. My aim was not good. I hit his arm, and not the one with the gun. Then all hell broke lose. People were shooting clones. Clones were shooting people. It looked like the world was on fire. My ears were ringing from the sound of the guns.

I knew hours went by, at least it felt like it. Blood stained the ground. Bodied layed motionless on the ground. I felt rain start to fall heavy. I looked around and saw that the fight was over...for now. I'm shocked we didn't lose any one. But we gained lots. I looked at Vampire venom. I saw dust and dirt but no scratches or cuts to be found on that girl. I looked around at every one. Even the new guys that were there. No one was hurt but I knew none of us will forget today. Our first real encounter with the Bli/nd group. Well besides vampire venom. I saw one newbie that caught my eye. She was tall with colorful hair and glasses. Of course she was covered in dirt but what do you expect we all were. I walked over to her and she smiled at me. "what is your name?" I asked her. "Kitty klaws but you can call me Kitty." she said. "Nice to meet you. I'm famousblood " i told her. Her smile was really pretty. I was shorter then her so I looked up to her.

I noticed that vampire venom was talking to the other newbies. Me and Kitty klaws walked up to them. "Vampire venom, this is Kitty klaws." I introduced them. While they were talking I felt Bethiebaby come behind me and wrapt her arms around my waist. I felt warm in her arms. It's the only time I feel warm any more.

The other new people I found out were the original Killjoys. Vampire venom was right Funghoul and party poison were hot! Party poison with his vibrant red hair. Funghoul with his amazing smile. Yeah super hot. Each of the original Killjoys had a different trait to them. Jet star had big fluffy hair and kobra kid had really cool boots. I didn't have to ask their names. I knew right when I saw them from what vampire venom had said about them I knew everything.

I was shocked that every one got out alive. There was alot of droids out there. I can still see the smoke from the guns. As I look out around our group, all I see is dust. Clouds and clouds of dust. Something doesn't feel right though. I look at every one. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine plus me. That's all ten. So what's going on? Why does it feel so horribly wrong. "look! up in the sky!Do you see it?" Bethiebaby pointed up. Up way high in the sky you could see just a tiny black dot. It kept getting closer to us. Suddenly wind started picking up and you could hear this loud chopping sound. What was the cause of the wind and sound. As it got closer you could see something like a mist coming out of what ever it was. It kept coming closer and closer. The wind picked up more. The chopping sound louder and louder. Then everything stopped. The wind, sound. Everything. It was like all time and space just stopped existing. No one was moving. No birds chirping, no nearby stream of fresh water. Nothing. I couldn't even blink to moisten my eyes. You couldn't even feel the heat of the sun on your arms. My eyes got so dry from the heat of they started to burn. And yet no tears came out.
