Announced Dead Disguises
When I finally left the room, I tried to loosen the skin tight clothes this person had. Whoever lived here was a scrawny person, and I stretched out the plain black shirt, tying the strings on the sweatpants. The owner of the house really was a glamorized person, as the clothing was some of the most outlandish outfits I'd ever seen. Even the simple clothes that I wore now were flashy, with a red glittered dragon on the back, and the ends of the sweatpants having rhinestones on them. The shoes were running shoes, and I threw all of my clothes away, momentarily mourning it, before the feeling of being clean since leaving base came upon me. Nova was tying her shoes, plain black running shoes, and she had worn an all black tracksuit. I hadn't realized until now that she was thinner than when she first left. And with the look in her eyes, she looked more haunted than before. I wondered if she was thinking about Zomb, and the failure of this rescue mission. Who was I
Announced Dead Tangled
"What are you doing?" someone asked, in the deepness of the fog. I tripped and stumbled a bit, my hands holding on to nothing as I walked. It was a strange place-mostly because it wasn't a place. But there was a voice speaking to me and it wasn't like the one before. This time, I was in control of myself. And I caught myself walking forward. "I wish you'd leave me alone. Whoever you're looking for, is dead. Accept it." the voice said again, but it was louder like I was getting closer to the person that was talking. The fog never dispersed. It stayed thick and suffocating, and I continue on. "That's close enough." the voice says, and there's an edge to her voice, like she's warning me the way a rattlesnake warns others. "Celia?" I say, not moving. There's a silence then, and then the faintest of footsteps. She stands before me, her clothes ripped to shreds, eyes staring me down. In this moment, Celia looks more like a wild animal, than a h

It was Nova who reacted first. Her hand flew out and she slapped me across the face. I could feel my mouth taste faintly of blood, as my tooth scraped against the side of the inner of my cheek. Not even a second after though, she grabbed my wrist and yanked me forward, making me stumble as I realized she was dragging me away from where the Trackers were about to be coming in. I let her pull me up, finding my footing as I let her go, and began to run next to her, my breathing becoming harsh and quick. Suddenly, snarls caught my attention from behind me, and another pair of running feet was followed by it. "Don't look back, just move forward!" Nova shouted, and something whizzed past us, a purple dart embedding into the tree that Nova had just run by. Not again! , I thought, feeling my heart start beating even faster, my body moving forward. I felt my footing start to slip, but I leaned forward. Nova was starting to slow down though, and I could tell she wouldn't be able to keep ru
Announced Dead Part III: Celia's freedom
Celia gritted her teeth on the bandana she had stuffed in her mouth, as the medical tech in her group stitched up a gash that ran from her shoulder to her forearm. That cut itself wasn't deep but it was long and at the moment, there wasn't a chance Celia wanted to risk infection. Todd, the name of the guy who was patching her up, was slow and careful, knowing exactly what he was doing. He would talk to Celia, ask her mediocre questions, and then carefully pour rubbing alcohol on her stitches. Celia could feel a scream form in her throat, but she simply blinked the tears out of her eyes, bot giving in. Todd patted her on the head once he was done, and she shot him a dark look. He gave her a sheepish smile, and Celia jumped off the seat, walking down a dirt pathway. In the center of the woods, a pack of children mixed with animal DNA hid, some of them helping each other out to create treehouses, and covering them with branches and leaves. Celia was in charge to overlook
Announced Dead Reunion
Jonathan did not stumble back, nor flinch away when Celia ran up into his arms, and sobbed uncontrollably into his shoulder. He held on tight to her, as if in fear someone would rip her away. Which would be near impossible, as Celia had a death grip on him. Celia couldn't stop the tears. Every time she thought she was done, boom, another wave of tears would hit. She wasn't trying to cry her eyes out especially when she could feel everyone staring at her. But despite all of that, she was still a small child looking for someone familiar to give her comfort. And that person happened to be the one that she was crying all over. After a moment, Jonathan placed a hand on her head, and made soothing noises, trying to calm her down. And strangely, it worked. Celia could feel the ache in her eyes increased, her nose still running. The girl that was traveling with Jonathan handed her a scrap of fabric, which Celia used to wipe her eyes and nose. "Thank you." Celia had said, and the girl no
Announced Dead Unwanted
Celia had made it down to overlook the others making food for the entire group. Rations were divided evenly, and the smell made her mouth water. The cooks, Tessa, Jericho, and Lynn, were busy preparing cooked meats, toasted bread, and placing out water bottles around the carved lunch table. Celia talked and smile to the others, though, the gesture foreign on her. She'd been trapped at the Markets for who knows how long, and now just trying to behave normally was...strange. She took a seat, not wanting to bother Jonathan and Nova, and began to eat her food with her fingers. The meat was delicous, thoroughly cooked with a smoky taste, the bread slightly burnt. Celia finished off her plate, belly full as she stared off lazily into the horizon. To be honest, Celia preferred life like this instead of the city. The only sounds here were better than the busy streets. And she didn't feel the need to constantly look over her shoulder. If her life was like this for
Announced Dead Hide away
When the camp is destroyed, they pack up what they can, and move forward. Their hostage is bound and gagged, being tied with a rope that's connected to her belt loop, and she's dragged along. Twice, Celia catches Jonathan looking back at the hostage with no expression on his face. Nova elbows him, and points forward. It's starting to piss Celia off. She hangs back, grabbing the rope from Tessa, and walking over to where Jonathan is at. There's nothing in his eyes when she hands the rope to him. "Walk her if you're so concerned." she says calmly, and even Nova is stunned into silence. Jonathan doesn't take the rope though, and Celia wiggles the end of it to him, waiting. She clicks her tongue, and hands the rope back to Tessa, snapping her fingers to make the others move forward. This time, Jonathan doesn't dare to look where the hostage is at, staring straight ahead. Celia might be a monster for what she had pulled but it was nothing compare
Announced Dead Makeshift ideas
Tomaz has Nova who has now gone uncincious in his arms. He flaps his long wings, flying straight up, before going in a straight line. Celia waits a couple seconds to see if he'll turn back to say that the air has the same effect in the sky as the ground, but he never does. She motions to the group to keep walking, Tessa draggin the hostage. At this point, Celia considers just abandoning the girl. She's as good as dead here in the chemically filled city, no use in dragging around a corpse. Just as Celia was going to give the order to abandoned the hostage, something in the distance caught her attention. A dart embedded into the side of Tessa, causing her to drop to the floor instantly. Celia ducked down, ordering the others to watch out for stray darts as more continued to rain down on them. Jonathan darted forward and grabbed Celia by her forearm, swears coming out of his mouth. As they ran, she made sure to usher the others ahead of her. Her body was more immun
