        "August.." I say nervously.

        "I know Lissa, just be quiet for a second I'm going to check it out." She says pulling her scarlet hair out of her face. I don't have enough time to object before she steps out of the car. She makes it about five meters before falling to the ground screaming.

        "August!" I scream, but I know it's too late, she's dead.

        I snap out of my trance when I turn back around in my seat. Reminiscing on that day gives me chills. I tried to pay attention to the meeting starting. However, I couldn't stop thinking about the boys striking green eyes. Why was he looking in my direction anyway? He probably just glanced, it's not a big deal.

        "May I have your attention please." Our leader, Krosin, says. He clears his throat before continuing.

        "As you all are aware one of our neighboring sectors was attacked. We lost around 70 people." He pauses. "However, we can't live in the past. That being said, we are calling more trainees to attend to repairing sector B. I have a list of the names here. Vick Abercrombie, Xavier Alexander, Adara Dawn, Johnathon Deans, Kearstin De Rosa, Daniella Foster, Dimitri Greene, Rebekah Hathaway, Vasilisa Ivory...." Me? Really? I can't seem to pay attention until I realize he's still calling names. "Tanner Johnson...." Friends, nieghbors, parents, all sent out probably to their death. "Trevor Lancaster, Aspen Rawings, Harry Styles, and Louis Tomlinson. I apologize for any inconvenience. The first shipment of people leaves in 48 hours. Don't be late. Remember, The Society is standing by."

        He gives a slight nod before exiting the stage. I let out breath as I soak in that my name
was called. That's not really what was bothering me, Aspen's was called as well. The thought of my best friend going anywhere close to the outer edge makes me sick. How can The Society do this! She has barely been in training for three months! I let out a huff before storming out of the massive building. I have to do something about this.

EDITED

So what did you guys think? Some people have been telling me they don't understand what's going on. Everything in italics is a flashback. I know it's kinda confusing but I have big ideas. Patience is key.

P.s. leave questions here
