1 WEEK LATER
All three communities only lost a couple of people. But the main threat was taken care of. Also his main people Sophia and Joshua. They were taken out by Armans people. But Mr. Harris escaped somehow. He apparently attacked Mount Barker. That was the last time Ana saw him. Now it's time to start what we tried to start before.
I slowly hopped towards Alleigh's grave. Now because my prosthetic foot was broken I have to use a crutch. I slowly bent down onto my knees. I rested my hand on top of Alleigh's grave and closed my eyes. All I could think about was her final moments. The way she saved my life. She shouldn't of saved me. She should of saved herself and got the hell out of there. Now I look back on her death and I know I have to be stronger. For everyone here. I need to be here for my people.
"I found myself dreaming, in silver and gold, like a scene from a movie, that every broken heart knows. We were walking on moonlight, and you pulled me close, split second and you disappeared, and then I was all alone. I woke up in tears, with you by my side, a breath of relief, and I realised, no, we're not promised tomorrow. So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you, I'm gonna hold you like I'm saying goodbye, wherever we're standing
I won't take you for granted, cause we'll never know when, when we'll run out of time, so I'm gonna love you. In the blink of an eye, just a whisper of smoke, you could lose everything, the truth is you never know, so I'll kiss you longer baby, any chance that I get, I'll make the most of the minutes, and love with no regrets. Let's take our time to say what we want, use what we got before it's all gone, no, we're not promised tomorrow. So I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you, I'm gonna hold you, like I'm saying goodbye, wherever we're standing, I won't take you for granted, cause we'll never know when, when we'll run out of time, so I'm gonna love you, like I'm gonna lose you, I'm gonna love you, like I'm gonna lose you, I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you, I'm gonna hold you like I'm saying goodbye, wherever we're standing, I won't take you for granted, cause we'll never know when, when we'll run out of time, so I'm gonna love you, like I'm gonna lose you, I'm gonna love you, like I'm gonna lose you" I sung while crying and remembering Alleigh.
After I finished singing I slowly stood up and clenched my fists.
"I miss her. She was a good person. I didn't talk to her much. But she was nice" Mabel said behind me.
I turned around and faced her. I saw Aydan standing behind her.
"Yeah. She was one of the good things in this world. She saved my life. All I can do now to thank her is come to her grave everyday" I said.
The walkie talkie buzzed.
"We have found five unknown people. Do you have our permission to bring them in for questioning to join our community?" Anastasia asked on the walkie talkie.
I picked up the walkie talkie from my belt.
"People? Search them for any weapons then bring them in" I said into the walkie talkie.
"Got it" Anastasia said into the walkie talkie.
I put the walkie talkie back onto my belt. I looked back up at Mabel and Aydan.
"If you don't mind me I have to go deal with these people. We can talk later" I said walking off towards the gate.
I saw the gate open and Anastasia and a few other people walked in and behind them were five people I have never seen before. Two women and three men. I slowly walk towards them.
"Are they clean?" I asked.
"No bites, no scratches" Anastasia said handing me a bag full of their weapons.
"What are your names?" I asked.
They were silent.
"I know I'm a teenager running a big community I get it a lot. Yes I am the leader of this place. My name is Sam. Now what's yours?" I asked.
A girl stepped forward.
"My name is Gabriella. These guys like to refer to me as the leader. Over there is Audrey, Tyler is next to me, Luke is over there and Will is there. Nice to meet you, and thank you for having us" Gabriella said.
Gabriella has long brown hair going down to her armpits. She has hazel eyes and nice clean looking skin. She is taller then me and she looked like she was in her twenties. Audrey next to her has resist black hair. She is smaller then me and is Asian. She had black eyes and she looked like she was about eighteen or older. Next to her was Tyler he was wearing a cap but his hair was brown and was very straight. He looked very muscular and he looked the same age as Gabriella. Next to Tyler was Luke he was chubby and had brown curly hair. He had large hazel eyes. Lastly was Will. He was tall and had blue eyes. His hair was straight and blonde.
It was silent between us for a few seconds as I looked at them all. They all looked friendly, but so did Brianna and her group.
"I need to ask you a few questions" I said.
"Go ahead" Gabriella said.
"Were you apart of a bigger group before?" I asked.
"Yeah. We were in this group but it fell to shit. We were attacked by these people in helicopters. They burnt our entire community down. We were lucky to escape" Gabriella said.
"Ok. I would like to individually split you guys up and ask you a few questions. My girlfriend Hunter and I will split you up. Gabriella, Luke, Will follow me. Audrey and Tyler follow Hunter here" I said giving Hunter a quick massage.
I slowly hopped towards the classrooms.
"How long have you guys been here for?" Luke asked.
"Since the start" I said.
I walked into a classroom and Gabriella, Luke and Will followed closely behind. I quickly sat down on a chair. They pulled up their own chairs and sat down.
"Um. If you don't mind. How did you lose your leg?" Luke asked.
"Luke" Gabriella said nudging Luke with her elbow.
"It's fine. It wasn't too long ago. We were at war with these people. They took us over and chopped my foot off as a warning. They killed a lot of us. Anyway. How did you guys survive out there alone for so long?" I asked changing the subject.
"Well we stayed together. We kept each other alive and we just moved from house to house moving around Adelaide" Gabriella said.
"Do you know any groups we should be aware of that might be dangerous to us?" I asked.
"Not that I know of there's only the helicopter people. They call themselves The New Order or something like that" Gabriella said.
"Yeah. We came across them multiple times before. How many people have you killed?" I asked.
"One person" Gabriella said.
"Nobody" Luke said.
"I've killed about five or six people" Will said.
"Why did you kill them?" I asked.
"She was going to kill my friend. So I killed her before she could. But I was too late" Gabriella said.
"I um. Killed them because... they threatened me" Will said.
Will seemed a little suspicious.
"What about you?" Gabriella asked.
"Too many to count. Everyone I killed was either in revenge for someone I loved or to help keep my people alive" I said.
I looked at the three.
"Alright. I will allocate bedrooms for all of you guys. But Will I need you to stay back. We need to talk to you a bit longer" I said.
I picked up my walkie talkie.
"Jeremy can you get someone to cover for your shift and get to room forty three for an interrogation" I said.
"Sure thing" Jeremy said.
"Ok. Will stay here please. Gabriella and Luke follow me" I said.
I stood up. They both followed me. I took them to rooms that were empty. They both walked in and looked around.
"There's another room that you can have if you like. In case you want separate rooms. But we are rationing our room spaces so you only get a choice between two rooms" I said.
"We will take this one. All five of us can sleep in this one. Thank you" Gabriella said.
"It's ok" I said.
"If you don't mind why did Will stay back?" Luke asked.
"He seemed a little suspicious when he was talking about how many people he has killed. I just want to be sure. I'm taking a risk letting you guys in. Alright I have to go, so get comfortable and talk with anyone if you need something" I said.
I walked out of the room and my walkie talkie buzzed.
"Hey Sam. Kane got your prosthetic foot done. You can come by today if you want to" Ana said.
