Novel & Cerita Where Is The Outsiders Set

I had no time to saved another person because even myself, I'm afraid that I might do a bad actions to the organization. I'm almost in the gate. I went outside and studied the area. The whole place was quiet like a ghost town. It's dead. No clamor could be heard in every streets of the whole building. It's a secluded part of Pittsburgh street so if you'll be taken here, no one could hear your screaming.

He was about to hurl more insults when Francesca suddenly shrieked, "Oh no! My precious Pico seems to be coughing!" Papa's and Mamma's expressions instantly changed, panic flaring. "Quick! Call the doctor immediately!" They hurriedly brushed past me. The heavy wooden door slammed shut in my face with a bang. I stood quietly in place for two seconds, then turned around and went back to my cold and gloomy room. I stuffed the few clothes I had into my bag. It was well below freezing outside. Bracing against the biting wind, I dragged my peeling suitcase and walked resolutely into the depths of winter without looking back.

​Ruby’s POV ​The air inside the abandoned warehouse district on the outskirts of Chicago smelled of rust, old rain, and impending victory. ​Chloe had selected the location—a sterile, concrete loft space currently under development by a Bells subsidiary. It was completely private, entirely secure, and far away from the prying eyes of the Magnificent Mile. Outside, the cold Midwestern wind howled against the reinforced glass windows, but inside, the tension was thick enough to suffocate.

ZOE’S POV “That’s the location?” I whispered. My eyes fixed on the red dot blinking against the map on Owen's phone, afraid it would vanish if I even blinked. Owen nodded. “It’s in the outskirts. Some run-down vacation cabins near Westgrove Lake.” My stomach twisted. The place sounded so isolated, so far. What if Chloe did something before we got there? What if Jamie was scared, alone and crying out for us?

Michelle stomped her foot in frustration and shouted, "Nina!" Nina paid her no mind at all. This scene left everyone in the office speechless. Nina was the first person to show such disdain towards Michelle. Leaving the TV station, Nina hailed a taxi and headed to the address of the orphanage. The urgency of the orphanage's situation had its reasons. Located in a remote area far from the city center, the roads were difficult to traverse and hardly noticed. Upon arrival, Nina got out of the taxi. The orphanage's gate was rusty, surrounded by a large patch of bamboo. The buildings inside looked old and dilapidated, nothing like the bustling Jasper city.

I didn’t know where Jackson was, but I knew I needed to find him. For the first time, I really looked around the camp. It was full of normal people doing normal things, which seemed slightly odd and unexpected. The cabins were all set out in a semicircle, facing the entrance to camp. Except opposite the entrance, there was a strange break in the cabins and there was no mud mound there either. I walked towards the area which had picnic benches dotted around it. There were children climbing all over them, playing away without a care in the world.

Now, they were warriors and survivors. Nearly twenty years ago, long before she was born, the mountains were entered by an enormous group of Outsiders. Rowan’s father was the leader of her people, and the Outsiders informed him that they were seeking a place in the Dark Zone to call home, promising their services in exchange. For a time, there was peace, but for as long as Rowan could remember, tensions had been consistently growing between their two peoples - and then, about five years ago, the worst happened.

They thought that moment would pass but what they’re not aware of is that it never does. The next thing I did was get Stanley to line up the two boys that started the fight at the gang’s hideout. I mounted my bike and took off. The hideout is at the outskirts of our town, a place no one has ever noticed. It has an abandoned building that was large enough to hide us and our atrocities. As I entered, I noticed everyone was around and the two boys were tied up. “Did you guys know what you cost me today?” I asked, bending down to their level.

---------- ------------------------------- Later, somewhere out East . . . ---------- ------------------------------- The sign announcing Jane's home town had been tagged by wannabe "gangstas," making it impossible to read in the fading light. Jane would have been amused if her mind hadn't been elsewhere. There weren't any real gangsters in her home state of Idaho. Lots of pretend ones to be sure.

All the girls laughed at me when I landed on my ass and skidded back into the trashcan and I’ve made sure to never get in his way again. Not that we have much time in the same place. I live in the orphanage and go to the school nearby that was built purely for our kind, away from ‘normal’ people. He was ahead of me by one year, so we didn't really cross paths in all that time, and since he lives with his pack on the south side of the mountain, only coming to the shadowy north when required, I never see him or any of his subordinates. Like all the rest of the people who avoid the ‘Rejects’.
