Lauren's Pov
Mom said that we would make a new mutant underground. I just didn't see how that was possible. But somehow we did. It was an old underground bunker that someone had made during the cold war that we found. It was comfortable but we were stuck here, sometimes it felt like we were trapped. If Sentinel Services ever found us, there was no back way out.
One of our main issues was that we were all wanted fugitives, especially Andy and me. Sentinel Services was really pissed about what happened and hit back hard. Mutants were being captured, killed, and tortured everywhere. There wasn't much we could do to stop it. We were in hiding and Andy and my powers were seriously malfunctioning. We couldn't quite control them sometimes.
Even with all of that, we were dealing with another threat. A much bigger one than Sentinel Services believe it or not. The Inner Circle may have lost their leader but it was still alive and well. Run by Esme's sisters, they wanted revenge on the mutant underground. They were hunting us down in full force. They were coming at us in ways that we didn't expect and had no way to fight against.
The purifiers were still out there and ever since Jace Turner made them into a citizen militia they were coming at us more and more. Mutants were getting attacked by them almost every day. Sentinel Services freaking out wasn't helping. They were trying to find us and we were worried they would. We were one step ahead but it wasn't confirmed that we would stay that way.
Even within the Underground, trust was fragile. We tried our best to keep everybody safe but sometimes we didn't succeed.
*So this was rewritten cause I felt like the first version just didn't really fit with the story anymore. Here is the new version. I'll do my normal update later today but I just wanted to get this out first. Hope you enjoy the rest of the story! :)*
