The Revolution

The Chariot

The teen woke up. Last night he couldn't sleep he was restless. He was worried. Yesterday he had found out that his best friend was a mutan- no special not in a bad way. He wasn't scared of his friend, he was scared of what could happen to his friend. He grabbed his pair of light, bleached, ripped jeans and slipped them on. He also grabbed an AC:DC shirt which was his favorite band which he had posters all over his wall. He also put that on and grabbed his favorite jean jacket. He then got a message from said friend, Kacey nickname: lemon

Lemon
:Hi how are you this morning

He smiled at the message he was happy he didn't open with 'I hope you don't hate me because now you know' so he responded

Cookie
:Hi I'm tired hbu?

Lemon
:Ah that sucks I'm doing fine anyways I'll see you at our meet up spot

Cookie
:Okay see you there

He slid his phone back into his jeans, grabbed his bag and headed out of his bedroom door. He walked down his hallway which was connected to the stairs. He ran down the stairs and checked his phone he realized he would be late to the meet up if he stopped for breakfast so he ran out his door. Even though he was on track the meet up spot was a solid 7 minute run, the school even further. His parents worked different jobs but left early and before he left. He was pretty much sprinting but still was about 3 minutes away so he kept running. Then something happened that made him panic he started running two times as fast and his body was draped in heat despite it being an extremely cold morning. His body wouldn't stop himself until he tripped. He realized that the ground around him almost caved in. He got up he realized exactly why this happened.

He was a mutant. He ran from what he saw as a crime scene scared of what could happen. He got a message about 30 feet from the meet up spot.

Lemon
:We can't stay here at least I can't and there's a good chance I'll leave my phone.

The brown haired teen was taken aback by his message he looked at the abandoned building they met up at he looked specifically at the third floor where they met he saw his blonde hair friend leaning against a rail. He went up the two flights of stairs and saw his familiar blonde haired friend. There was a large backpack that was full and an empty one. He got to the top of the stairs as Kacey sent him another message

Lemon
:I know you've never had a reason to runaway but now you do you can come with me

His blonde haired friend looked up from his phone as he heard a buzz. "Hi" Kacey greeted him with a small wave.

The other teen smiled and waved as he said "Hey."

"Soooo..." The lemon haired boy said "do you" Kacey made eye contact with the taller teen.

"I actually had something to tell you," the cookie haired boy hesitated before continuing "I think I'm like you"

The other teen replied "What do you mean?"

"I think I have a special ability."

"That's perfect you have even more the reason to come with me!"

The brown black speckled hair boy had no reason to stay he couldn't be himself around his parents and he only had one friend, the lemon haired boy.

He waited a solid moment to reply "Yeah I do have all the more reason but are you sure you want to do this."

"Yes I'm sure" the teen replied

"Where are we even gonna go?" the cookie haired boy said

"I have a mutant friend on the inside," he started "He gave me a car and some money and told me that there is a safe place in New York."

"Okay then I'm guessing that's my bag?" he said pointing to the bag lying on the cold hard concrete beneath the two teens. The other teen replied back with a nod. The boy grabbed the bag and looked at the other teen.

"Do you need to stop home?"

"Obviously." The teen replied. He usually was more enthusiastic, actually a lot more enthusiastic he was just tired.

"Okay." Both of them were a lot more serious and less talkative.

The boys agreed he would walk back and then they would start driving.

He arrived back home and grabbed what he needed. He got back to the abandoned building. He saw Kacey standing against the car "Hi did you get everything?"

"Yeah I think." They both chucked their phones into the cold river near the abandoned building.

They climbed into the car. Yes Kacey and Cane were both 16 and Kacey had a driver's license.

"Alright let's go." Kacey said
