Onward

"Yuck..." I threw some blood onto the floor, wiping blood off my face as well. I stepped over body after body, making my way back to the school's front door. "H-Higa A-are you Okay?" Carla ran toward me concerned. She almost reminded me of a worried mother. "Yeah...a mother...honestly..I never knew what having a mother felt like. I had never felt my mother's warmth, compassion, hell I've never even seen her face. The only people in my life were my father and my little sister. They were all I needed. I hoped to god they were both okay and even then..."

My thinking was cut off as Carls ran up and hugged me, her face buried in my chest as she seemed to cry. I never had motherly love as a child, but what the well does that matter now? We're in the middle of a post-apocalyptic crisis right now, If it did I wouldn't be here right now. Liam elbowed the glass door, breaking it as Angelica and he walked out.

He screamed at me for jumping out of the fourth-story window like an idiot, slapping my head with a glove from the hazmat suit, Angelica calmed him down by explaining why I had done it and his eye twitched, scratching to the back of his head in stress. "So that explains why you're covered in blood" Liam sighed.

"Where too next?" Angelica asked, placing a hand on her hip, her body now being completely covered the the hazmat suit. She was right, we had nowhere to go, and we had already taken all of the stuff from the school so there wasn't much of a point staying. Carla raised her hand, stepping up, her tears seemed to be gone in a flash. "U-Um...M-My Mom Works At A Police Station We Can Go There To Ask Her To Help!" She Offered. "A-And W-Wash H-Higa Up" She pulled my cheek a little, it didn't hurt as much as I would've thought but it probably wasn't intended to hurt. "God damn it let's just get to the police station" I sighed, slightly annoyed but a little more happy she wasn't as polite as before. Angelica threw me a hazmat suit, Letting Carla get hers on before looking at me expectantly. "No need," I waved my hand at her, kneeling and plucking one of the roses from the ground as the thorns poked out for a second, retreating quickly after, I honestly wasn't completely sure if i would be immune or not. "A-Are You Okay?!" Angelica ran over and grabbed my wrist, looking at my hand to see if I would start to wither or not. "Yeah I'm not affected by the ro-" I was cut off by a slap to my face, Angelica was fuming now. "THEN WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING WORRYING US LIKE THAT?!?!" She screamed at me, but to be fair I should've told them beforehand. "Sorry.."I apologized, my eyes wondering over to the audience. I still don't even know how you guys ended up here, in fact, I only just began to notice...a god after the incident...
