JESWIA

Spice was hollering my name. I sighed and put down my guitar and strode to the window, pulling it open. "What?!" I demanded. I hated being interupted while I was making music.

"I was wondering if we could stay with you for a bit?" He gestured towards a girl who looked completely terrified. She looked familiar...Shawn or Shane or something.

"Yeah, sure! Come on up!" I shut the window before he could say anything else and presumed playing guitar, singing along quietly. It was an old lullabye my grandma had once sang to me as a child.

Soon enough, Spice barged in through the door, the poor girl following. He probably hadn't given her much of a choice. "Thanks for knocking, much appreciated Spice," I grumbled, stopping my music for a moment. I smiled at the girl. "Hi, I'm Jess." I got up and walked to the door, shutting it quickly and offering her my hand. She hesitated before taking it. "Make yourself at home."

Shadow

I slipped in beside the boy and girl suppressing my shivers. I needed a place to stay tonight and food. No one would notice if some suddenly disappeared would they now. I ignored the three people talking and slipped through an open doorway.

It was a bedroom. After drying myself off the best I could I shoved my stuff under the bed. Ahh home would be here now. I heard music, and stepped back into the hallway. There was a small kitchen and a sitting area. The couch was pulled out to form a bed. Nice. I passed everyone to sit in a corner. They were oblivious!

Ok, allmixedup gets the final say on this but I see this city as a sort of war zone. The rebellion is really a big gang that says that they are trying to find a way out but are just a power hungry group. Most of the people hide out trying to live in peace. Most of the NYC building are rusty and worn out. There is really no school system. People just try to get food and water.

I know I'm a little late on this, but can I join?

of course shadow!!!!!! and ya.... that pretty much covers it math! soryy that you guys have to drag her around for the mext two days.... this sucks

SHAWN

He really didn't give me much choice, he grabbed my hand and dragged me up here. Jess seemed nice.
"Your..." She tapped her head, trying to remember something. "Shawn right?" How did everyone know my name?
"Ya that's me." She got us each a glass of water. I just couldn't resist. I froze it, watching the glass become frosty. Then unfroze it. I loved being able to do that. My power wasn't that strong, yet. Mostly i could freeze and boil water with my mind. Spice and Jess were blabbing away. Really i could care less. As soon as i was out of here it was back to the central park pond for me.

I stared at my glass, deep in thought. The water started to boil so i calmed down. I looked outside. Was this all that there was to life, earning the trust of others or suffer on your own?

Whistling to myself, I kicked a stone across the road. No one was around as far as I could tell. I hated living here, it was so boring. Sighing heavily, I sat down on the damp side walk. Maybe I should find someone, I thought to myself. I hadn't spoken to anyone in a while, no one living anyway.

I'd only been sitting down for a few seconds when I stood back up again. I'd decided to find some people, it would be better than wondering aimlessly around the place. I had no idea where to start though, I didn't really know many people. I didn't know many interesting people, anyway.

As I wondered around, looking for people, I realised how hungry I was. I hadn't eaten in ages, not properly. I was always worried about doing stuff because the God-damn rebellion always seemed to be watching. They were like fricking pedos. Considering most of them were guys, the whole pedo thing freaked me out even more.

Chuckling quietly to myself, I continued to look around the city. I eventually reached a row of buildings. I stopped walking as my eyes scanned the walls of the buildings. As I did so, I noticed a pretty blonde girl with deep brown eyes looking out of one of the windows. Finally! Some life. Grinning, I headed towards the entrance of the building.

Fire
I sat on the ground my legs crossed. I hated this place so much. I sighed and a small ball of fire appeared in front of me. I played with it making it form scenes and names and words in midair. I loved doing this I giggled. Goddess I felt like such a little kid and it had been forever since I had felt like that. 'Well you've been on your own for most of your life even when you did have parents.' I thought to myself. I sighed and continued to play with the fire. I started to hum quietly still playing with the fire barely aware that I was doing so.

Scarlett!

I giggled.

Then sighed.

Then snorted.

"I'M SO BOOOOOORED!" I yelled out to the world. A couple of birds scattered that were resting in nearby trees.

I've been trapped in this island for almost my whole life. IT was BO~RING! It was full of plants and freaks like me. I siged as I jumped to my feet, stretching my worn limbs. I've been walking for days and haven't seen a single person. A few nights ago, these group of old geeezers wanted some 'fun' and decided I could 'pleasure' them.

Oh I pleasured them. It you call setting there hair and clothes on fire pleasure.

My stomach grumbled. I groaned. I haven't eaten since that night and even tehn all I ate was this rabbit I found around teh outskirts of town.

Behind me, the leaves rustled as I immediately went into defense postition.

"Who are you!" I yelled at teh bush just as a head popped out.

"Calm down" I said while picking leaves from head. I continued to climb out of the bushed. When i was fully out i dusted my shorts off. The leaves are never the same without actuall sunlight. I looked at the girl.

"Okay." i said fixing my posture straight.

"Are you one of the rebellion?" She aked me witth her guard up.

"Yes i said with so much sarcasm.

"Do you always yell to get on everyones nerves?"I asked her.

She gave me a smug look and i returned the favor. It got silent between us.

"Look My names Alma and i'm kind of lost." I said to her.

"I dont usually come to this part of town i'm from the lower west side."I added.

I shifted my waieght and rolled my eyes because instead of answering me she continued to give me that same smug look.Maybe she didnt like my sarcasm but she was really asing for it. Just then i heard another noise from the bushes. We both shifted our looks behind me. I didnt bring any company so i hadn't the slightest idea who was making thier entrance this time.

Sorry it's short, I didn't know what else to write...

Alice Munroe

I could feel the blood rushing to my head. Sitting in a head stand, I clenched my teeth together. C'mon body, don't fail me now! My body jiggled slightly, my legs aching to hit firm ground.

"97...98...99...100." I let my legs drop and my body roll to the ground. Lying flat on the floor, I let blood pump through my veins and return to my ankles. Taking in deep breath's I listened around for movement. 6:00! Jumping, I pulled the dagger from my boot and flung it at the wall.

It spun quickly digging into the wall. A figure stood shocked, their mouth wide open.

~Ellie May~

I stood there for a moment, my mouth agape. The dagger was in the wall next to me. I had hoped I could just come in, steal some food maybe and leave. My body was frozen, my heart beating fast.

"Who are you?" the girl asked. I couldn't move, let alone speak. I simply stood there, mouth open, eyes wide. I probably looked like an idiot to her. But I didn't want to stay and find out. I ran through the room, jumping out the open window. I landed on my leg sideways when I hit the ground. I was in shock for a moment. Now, not only did I look like an idiot, I felt like one too!
