Chapter one: how it all started
No one knew what to do. We were just waiting. Waiting to go home. But it looks like that’s not going to happen any time soon. We weren’t waiting to go home but waiting like sitting ducks, to be killed. We, whom were terrified, were all hiding. Hiding fo are lives. But that was how it is now. Not just for me but all the people hiding. This how it’s been for the last 50 years. And we still don’t know who has been doing his or how this came to be.
“Hurry up Oliver, it time.” Now you may be wondering what Liam meant by that. Well here one you turn 13 you have to go though a test to see how strong you are. Majority of the population was killed and that is why there are only 17 people left now. “Coming just hold on.” And people at the yes of 13-20 go through this thing that they call the ending, as it sees how you adapt to different situations. Now in this place there are only 17 people alive. That including us. If your wondering were are the elders? They were all killed when this started because they deemed that the old were to weak to live. Stumbling down the stairs I run out the door with my friend, whom as very tall, Liam. “Come on we cant be late for this we’re finally aloud to meet the other survivors.” He started saying.
“That’s only if we survive this” I sighed. After running for 10 minutes, we finally made it right on time. “Wow, this is the first time were not late for these kinds of things” Liam then fell to the floor panting like a hound. “Really you guys are lucky that this isn’t about being on time, but to be honest I’m normally late as well”. I look up to see the guy who spoke to us. He was very tall and slim but sill had some muscle. “How rude of me I didn’t introduce my self, I’m Ben and I’m 19 how about you two.” He said giving the warmest smile. “I’m Oliver and I’m 13”.
“My names Liam and I’m 16”. Liam finally got up and stoped panting Ike a dog. But then Ben asked “did you to share a house?”
“Yah, we were told that we would be sharing a house, since this kid wouldn’t be able to live by himself and that’s how I met this sort stack.” Liam said while putting his on my head, like an arm rest. “Well you guys are lucky then I haven’t been able to see others since I was 13, and that’s when I was told I was the only one in my round that survived. But I still wonder if any one from the round before me lived because if they did I wouldn’t be the eldest.” He explained to us. Just like him I was they only on from my round to survive and that was only done at the end of last year. “Well your question is answered I’m one of the two survivors from my round.” A girl with long blonde hair said. “Sorry, hope I’m not interrupting anything” she said with the sweetest voice.
“No not at all by the way I’m-“
“Oh I know I over heard your conversation I’m Lacy and I’m 20.” She paused for a second. “And this is the other survivor my twin, come on don’t be shy now. You said that you were exited to see everyone that is alive.” Lacy sad in a teasing tone then we saw a boy with longish blonde hair. “I’m not being shy any way I’m James and like her I’m 20.” They are probably the twins Liam told me about that were the first to survive the round system. “We’re are the other they should b e here by now, aww now I’m have to wait to Makim my announcement.” A speaker like voice said. “WHOS THERE!!” Ben yelld angrily. Who was that? Are they what’s making us do these stupid things?
