Chapter Six

I wake up in the morning, to the smell of bacon and pancakes. I head downstairs to see Time, setting some pancakes down on a plate and placing it in the middle of the dining room table. At the table, Blue is setting the table and Sony is putting orange juice and water in the middle.

Time sets the bacon on the table, looks up and finally sees me standing in the doorway.

"Good morning, Violet," She says, smiling at me, her eyes glistening.

"Morning," I say, staring at the food," What's all this?"

"Breakfast. We don't starve people here."

"Right, but where'd you get this stuff from?"

"Abandon super markets, hospitals and houses." she says, picking up a crystalline vase and setting it in the middle of the table. Then, Rose walks into the room from the door, leading to the backyard. She's carrying beautiful Lavender flowers, she places them in the vase, then looks at me and smiles.

"Morning, Violet!" She says, hugging me.

"Morning, Rose!" I say, hugging her, tight.

"How did you sleep?"

"Great! The bed is really comfortable."

"That's great." She says, just as everyone else enters the dining room at the same time.

"Morning," they all say in unison.

"Morning, sit down and have breakfast," Time says, sitting at the head of the table.

I sit next to Rose, Dark sits next to me, Toxic sits next to Dark, Spark sits next to Toxic and Twitch sits next to Spark. Voodoo is at the other end of the table and is stealing some food from the plates. Impact sits next to Voodoo, Samuel sits next to Impact, Blue sits next to Samuel, Asher sits next to Blue, Juniper sits next to Asher, Sony sits next to Juniper, and Diana sits in the extra seat by Sony.

We all start talking to one another, making it sound like we're in REAP's cafeteria. We each have two pieces of bacon and two pancakes. It tastes so good.

After breakfast, we all head back up to our rooms, to get ready for the day. We each have our own bathroom, walk in closet, balcony and huge bed. I love it.

I enter the fairly big bathroom, turn on the water in the shower to "Hot" and wait a minute, taking off my pajamas and throwing them in the laundry basket.

I jump into the shower, the water scolding hot and burning my back but feels so refreshing. I put sea breeze scented shampoo and conditioner into my hair and wash it out. For once in my life, I shave my legs and surprisingly, I don't cut myself.

I get out of the shower, turning the knob and wrapping a white towel around me. I pad out of the bathroom and into my closet. I look through all the clothes until I find fringed black short shorts, a black t-shirt and a purple leather jacket. I also found perfectly fitting combat boots.

I walk downstairs again to see Voodoo, Impact, Time, Toxic, Dark and Rose already down there, watching TV. Voodoo is wearing black skinny jeans, a grey tank top, a black beanie, a light blue jean jacket with fur on the collar and combat boots. Impact is wearing a black hoodie, ripped, black skinny jeans and a black flat-bill hat, also with combat boots. Time knew Toxic was coming so she took it upon herself to make radioactive proof everything and put in the house. So she made Toxic some clothes, too. She's wearing black and green striped hoodie, jean shorts and combat boots.

Time is wearing a leather jacket with a pink top and black leggings with combat boots. Rose is wearing a crimson leather jacket, black shirt, black fringed shorts and combat boots, almost identical to my outfit, I guess it's a twin thing. Dark is wearing a white tank top, black skinny jeans and combat boots.

"Hey," I say stepping into the room and sitting on the floor next to Toxic.

"Hey," Toxic says, staring at the TV.

We all just sit in silence and watch the News, Ten kids escaped from Reap Insane Asylum last week, the news reporter says, fear shows in her eyes, These kids are said to be impulsive, short-tempered and very dangerous,

"That's not true!" Toxic yells, standing up.

Our pictures come up on the screen, none of us smiling, If you see these kids, please notify the authorities at once, they will be taken back to Reap and we will be safe, again. The TV switches off.

"We're not dangerous!" I yell, standing, next to Toxic.

"We're just different, and they're afraid of us for that! Racist pieces of shit!" Impact yells, his knuckles turning white from balling his fists too tightly.

Everyone else comes down stairs, either wearing leather or tank tops.

"The hell is going on?" Spark asks.

"Nothing. Let's just go." Time says, walking out of the room and out the front door.

We all stay quiet and walk out the front door to see three black SUV's parked in the front. Time tells us to get into them, she's in the front of the first one and I decided I'm going with her. I get into the passengers seat of the SUV, Rose in the back behind Time, Dark behind me and Impact between them.

"So, where are we going?" I ask, sheepishly.

"Travis Air Force Base," She says, pulling out of the driveway.

"I'm sorry. An air force base? Won't we get caught?"

"No, it's been abandon for years and has a lot of guns, missals and knives." I nod, understanding and being quiet the rest of the way.
