Chapter 4
** I made some huge changes in the last two chapters since i wasn't too happy about the development of the story. I write what comes to mind, so even I have to idea where this story is going for now, i just know the bigger lines. It won't happen again, don't worry. **
"Wake up." April groaned while trying to stay asleep. She wasn't a morning person. A "wake up" person in general. "Wake up, they need food." April lifted her head from her headpiece of her seat and looked out of the van. It was dark outside, the only light came from the streetlights that were spread across the parking lot. "Where are we?" April said, rubbing her eyes. "Walmart." April looked to her left and saw January rubbing her eyes.
April knew January needed sleep soon, she had been driving for 3 days now. Even if they could stay awake longer than most people, they still needed sleep from time to time. "I will take over after we get back" April offered while cracking her neck. "Sure" January agreed while opening the door. " Stay with them" January added, looking back to where the species were seated. They just growled, looking at the female who was in the arms of one of the felines. She really needed help soon, but they thought it was better to drive to Homeland themselves than to call them. December had been watching over the female, since she had the most experience in medicine than the other sisters. The female would live until they got her to more specialized people who could help her.
It was a risky move, but they had learned to be cautious. April half rolled out of the car, putting her feet on the ground and walked towards the building of the Walmart. It was still early, and she noticed there were almost no cars in the huge parking lot. "They want meat" January said. "Meat is hard to prepare right now" April said. "Yeah, they said that they like it raw anyways. Not that i'm judging."
They quickly got what they needed. Grabbing water, steaks, bread and peanut butter. They threw some cash on the counter and walked away, not wanting to attract to much attention of the camera's. While walking back April looked over at her sister. "This will work right?" January stared back at her and just nodded. "It has too."

Jaded stepped out of his golf cart and walked straight towards Slade, Fury and Darkness. A couple of feet away stood Snow, together with Smiley, frowning towards the gate.
"Are you sure this is not a trap? We got attacked not long ago" Jaded said when he reached Slade. "As far as we are concerned not. We could hear the growling from one of our males. We already ordered a helicopter, since they said one of the females is in bad condition. Tim is going with them to escort them" Slade said. He looked as grim as Jaded felt. "Why didn't they call us immediately, the female could die" Jaded growled. "They didn't trust us, like we don't trust them. I can understand" Darkness said. "Incoming."
A black van raced through the streets, coming towards the gate. Just inches away the van came to a stop. Snow walked towards the van, Smiley close behind him. "We will see if this a trap or not" Darkness said.
Jaded saw Snow nod and the gate opened. The van rolled in and the gate quickly closed. Jaded followed close behind Slade as he approached the van. The door rolled open and three males walked out. One canine and two felines, one feline carrying a primate female. The feline growled as soon as other males tried to approach them. "Calm down big kitty, they are trying to help" a smooth voice said from the van. Soon after the door from the driver side opened and small female stepped out. Jaded felt shivers go down his spine when he saw her eyes. They looked dead. Cold. Her stare went over the males and then looked back at the feline hiding the primate. The other door opened and another, taller, female stepped out. Behind the males two other females stepped out and they all did the same as the previous female. Assessing the situation. Watching.
"Call Justice" Slade said while coming to a halt in front of the females. "Yeah, we need tot have a talk" the tallest female said, starting right back at Slade. "A long one."
