"We are here" Aneska announced quietly, stopping in front of what I had once called home.

Slowly I got out of the truck. Hearing the truck doors shut and footsteps walking towards me, I knew Aneska and Nathan stood behind me.

The Buildings are still destroyed or have been demolished. I swear I could still see smoke rise in the sky from the burnt down houses. The roads and streets had debris all over them, it was hard to make out if it was even a road.

I felt a hand place on my shoulder in support as I stared out in a daze. Debating to turn back now or was it too late?

"You alright Hazel?" Aneska now asked me. I nodded slowly back in response, not trusting my voice at all. I slowly walked forward making Aneskas hand fall back to her side.

"What now?" Aneska mumbled crossing her arms around her small figure, before making sure the truck was locked.

"We investigate" I whisper quietly.

Walking forward to what seemed to be a ghost town. My chocolate brown eyes travelled building to building, my feet guiding me to what my gut was telling me and before I realized it. I had stopped on the corner of a familiar street. I hesitated on going down the street but went anyways...

I had to, I wanted to. I needed this closure I have seeked for years.

"Hazel?" My named echoed the once lively city, making a cold shiver run down my spine.

"Down here" I called back. My eyes not leaving the demolished house that I had called home.

"Nathan is taking photo's- oh" Aneska stopped beside me following on where my eyes were. She bit her lips awkwardly. "You ok?"

"I'm Ok" I whisper back, even though it wasn't believable at all. I was glad Aneska played it off. "That's...good!"

The now burnt door-frame still surprisingly stood, but there was no front door. I sighed before walking through the doorway, being careful on where I stepped.

Inhaling sharply from the nerves, I coukd easily smell the gunpowder, smoke, ash and... death.

It lingered around here, the constant thought of them dying right here shook me to the core. Shaking my head, I dismissed the constant memories that dared to attack my mind and disregarded the emotions that struck me all at once.

My eyes caught on a shimmering object in the distance. Captivated, I walked to it with caution and curiousity.

I went into a crouching position once in arm's distance of the object, sighing I picked it up. I felt a wave of energy that felt like electricity vibrate through my body and bones, I shook off the feeling with a shudder instantly.

"What is it?" Aneska's voice echoed to me, making me jump. I totally forgot that Aneska still stood thetr.

I tilted my head slightly at the silver object I held, I was unsure of it myself. I have never seen anything like it, ever.

The object seemed to be a silver shard of something with weird symbols imprinted on it. It shimmered in the sunlight. "I don't know" I respond dully, confused by it.

Standing back to my full height and walking over to her. "Let's show this to Nathan, maybe he would know" I say with a frown, unsure if he would, but it seemed...robotic.

Walking to where I last saw him, Aneska immediately followed. "Found anything?" Nathan asked us two automatically, he leaned against the black truck. It was obvious he found nothing useful himself.

"Yeah...uh, this" I showed him the odd object, for Nathan to raise an eyebrow at me because of it. Confused. "How is a piece of scrap metal going to help us?"

My hearing slightly caught what seemed to be another surprised grunt. I whipped my head around expecting Ron to be around, fear hitting me, before I realised he wasn't here.

...must be the truck settling.

"Its not just a 'piece of crap metal', Look at the symbols on it" I argue, knowing it was something more. I could feel it thrumming beneatg my fingers, like it was alive.

Nathan leaned forward and observed it with his green eyes a bit longer. To nod reluctantly. "Okay true...it is odd."

"Aye, Ladies I found something!" Aneska waved us over, she took a picture with her digital camera while waiting.

"I am not a Lady" Nathan sulked in response, but walked over to her anyways. My eyebrow's knitted together in confusion at the sight. "What is it?" I asked dumbly.

"It seems to be a blue substance of some sort... Defiantly not normal" Aneska claimed going to touch it, before I slapped her hand away with horror.

Aneska looked at me startled. "Don't touch it!" I scold her, not wanting her to attract a disease or something.

"Why does it glow?" Nathan questioned confused, but sounding intrigued at the same time.

"Who knows" I reply with a shrug, getting out an empty water bottle from my bag; I scooped some of the liquid up.

Popping the lid back on it, I paused before putting it in the backpack to examine later at the school lab. Soon followed the strange piece of metal so I didn't loose it.

Hearing a sound of a Jet all the sudden, we all looked up at the sky seeing a military Jet zoom by in the sky.

That looked similiar...like the one that flew by when I was walking home. My eyebrows furrowed in confusion and my healing hand seemed to dully burn in a reminder of said injury caused by the jet.

"Since...when did Jets fly so low?" Nathan blurted out in startlement, we all stood our full height and turned to face the jet...that spun back towards us.

"They Don't..." I say slowly and started to walk back to the truck. The feeling of not being safe hitting me full on. "We have to leave-"

Before we realized it we were running away from a Jet firing roundsat us. My sentence was cut off by the sound of gunfire.

"Holy shit!" Nathan cursed dodging bullets left, right and centre.

"Run, Run, RUN!" Aneska repeatedly yelled in terror, jumping over constant debre in attempt to get to the black top-kick truck that somehow seemed further than what they parked it to be.

"Faster!" My heart raced while I ran as fast as my legs could go. My heart pounded in my ribcage and I swore it was about to fail on me.

Hiding behind a pile of concrete slabs. Aneska and Nathan joined me as we knew that if we continue to run to the truck, we would be killed.

"What now-" We get cut off when a large mental foot stomped in front of us. Making the ground shake and making us loose our balance.

"Oh my GOD!" Nathan's voice echoed through my ears while I was now staring up in complete fear of a red-eyed robot.

"Where is it!" Its graverly voice demanded, shoving a spinning gun in our face's. Making all of us scoot back madly.

"I-I Don't know what you're talking about!" I yell back in fear, sweat dripping off my forehead.

"Learn the hard way human." It spat out in disgust, gun warming up while spinning rapidly.

"RUN!" Nathan yelled while grabbing mine and Aneska's wrists, dragging us to the truck once again. For all of us to freeze when noticing the truck was gone.

Aneska started to talk. "What?-"

Explosions cutted her question short and missiles now flying towards us making it hard to run away and stay on earth's surface. Next thing I knew; I was On the other-side of the street from Nathan and Aneska.

Body hurting, I was instantly pushing myself off the asphalt ground that I somehow landed facefirst on. Adrenaline pumping, I looked up while gunfire filled my ears. Buildings seemed to catch on fire...

It was a repeat all over again.

Smoke filled my vision. I couldn't see them. Where are they? Where is Aneska and Nathan!

I screamed in horror when my eyes met with the similar red eyes from all those years ago. My heart stopped and I couldn't breathe, everything seemed to suddenly go in slow motion.

Was this it?

A black robot suddenly emerged and jumped over me through the smoke while firing in mid-air at the triangle shaped robot, successfully hitting him in the chest with each shot.

There was a difference with this robot.

His eyes were...Blue.

Like Rons.
