Chapter 7
Well, she was wrong.
You know when she said I should bid my family goodbye.
I don't have a family, not that I didn't know before but I at least had a little hope.
A tinny bitty little hope that perhaps they'd miss me.
When I got home they were already in their respective rooms, so I decided to surprise them a little.
I went to Sadie's room first, being the one that hates me most she deserves to hear the news first and be shocked.
I couldn't wait to see her surprised face.
I knocked her door. Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock!
'Who's there?'. She grumbled.
'It's me. Your favorite sis'.
She grumbled again. 'What do you want?'.
'OK, coming right away'.
I entered her room and saw her in front of her mirror, cleaning her face caked with makeup.
'Thanks for allowing me

It was very obvious that he was very happy and thought that where we were heading was our complete salvation.Whatever he thought changed the moment we got to the front of the manor.'Woof?'.'Yeah, this is where we're staying'.'Woof!'.'I know, it's very bad looking.

'Wow!'.I couldn't help but admire the dress.I wasn't the fashion lover type but I admire something pretty when I see one.The dress in my hands looked very pretty.It was a mermaid one-shoulder long sleeve front split evening gown with sexy sequins.I decided to put it on.'Wow'. I said again.It brought out a shape which was certainly not mine. Maybe there was something in the dress that makes the person putting it on looks sexy.Because I was definitely not the one in the mirror.Or is there something wrong with the mirror?It doesn't matter though, as long as I'm pretty in it.I packed my hair up into a rough bun and slipped on a black heels and moved to go out when I heard a knock.'Who's it?'.'It's the cleaner ma'am'.'OK...hold on

'I like your hair'.'Oh, really?'.'Uh uh'.'What's there to like about it?'.'The colour, the texture'. She said running her fingers through the strands.I snorted.

I winked.She blushed. 'The honor is mine'.'By the way, who is Eleanor?'.'The cleaner, I thought you meg her already. She said-'.'Oh yeah, we did. But I didn't ask her name'.'Oh'.Irena and I had become good friends that she moved all her belongings into my room.She said she's used to sleeping with someone cause she sleeps with her 3 you

'Wakey, sleepyhead. It's morning already'.I woke up to Irena's cheerful voice.'Go away'. I grumbled.'You aren't a morning person are you?'.'Come on. We have to get ready for today'.I opened my eyes to see her beautiful face smiling down at me.She had black spots around her eyes, which made it obvious that she cried herself to sleep.'Why?'.'I heard that we're meeting the head of this place today'. She said looking exited.I doubted if she'll be that happy if she knew how 'the head of the place'. Looked.'haven't you seen her?'.'No'. She frowned.'But I did'.'You did?'.'Yes'.'When?'.'My first day here'.'Uhm-- OK, but why is that? I didn't see her on my first day andI don'

Each batch will have 10 hunters'.'The first batch will move the day after tomorrow, I will call out the names of the ones to go tomorrow in the next two hours, till then you all should move to your various rooms. Dismiss'.We all moved to our various rooms, Irena and I moving to the same room.'Do you think She'll pick us to go for the first batch?'.'What if she picks you for this batch and doesn't pick me?'.'Or if she picks me and don't pick you?'. She asked panicking.'It's alright, don't panic, either ways at the end we'll come back and be together'.

'Chuff, chuff, chuff'.That was the sound of the helicopter whirling. The first batch hunters where standing in a straight line beside the helicopter addressed by Julia.'For the hunt, you are allowed to use all the machinery provided, guns, bombs. Anything. But the only weapon you're not allowed is spear'.She said the word like it was the most dangerous thing on earth.'So if you have any hidden weapon of any kind, drop them on the floor now!'.Two men marched forward and dropped the knifes hidden in the belts.'Wise'. Julia clapped then turned so fast I only saw breeze. In an instant she was at the front of a lady whom I recognised as Mimi and before I could blink reached into her shirt and brought out a small knife.'Not wise'. She smirked and Mimi screamed while holding her head.'Just a warning, next time I won't be so nice.

We were woken the next day by a trumpet.Irena jumped up and started screaming.'Calm down, they're probably trying to wake us'.'Why?'.'I dunno, let's go outside first'.We scrambled out of bed and quickly changed our clothes not bothering to take our baths.We came out of our room only to see others filing out too. We joined the group heading to the head hall.I looked up to see Julia sitting on a chair placed on the podium, she looked like a fallen angel from the pit of hell.'Good morning, hunters'. She greeted.'Good Morning'. We said in unison.She smiled her devilish smile. 'I'm sorry for waking you like that. I had something important to share with you'.She took out a cigarette from the air and a slave behind her lit it for her.She brought it to her mouth and pu

I watched as the clouds drift past by the window.The urge to go back pulled at my heart squeezing it tightly, I fought against it and won but doesn't mean the urge left completely I still felt the great need to smash open the helicopter's window, squeeze myself through it and jump down, to whatever lies beneath.I felt someone squeeze my hand and it turned out to be Irena. Her eyes were closed but I could tell she was awake.Her hands felt cold which betrayed her calm demeanor. She told me once that her hands gets unnaturally cold whenever she was anxious or petrified.I squeezed back and it calmed me down a bit.I could think straight once more without my thoughts drifting towards jumping to my death.Not for the first time, my thoughts drifted towards the place.
