Gangs

Chapter two

Jt grabs my arm again and pulls me outside. Atoms eyes catch mine, something in them scares me a little. Brandon comes back up when he sees us.

I swear to God Atom, if you hurt my sister

Slow down man, it’s my ass if she gets hurt. why would I?

Good

            A year goes by… I share a room with Shelby, she is my best friend here. She is 17 too and just does the monitoring and stuff no fighting. She has long dark brown hair, tan skin. Everyday Atom pulls me outta bed hours before suns up and Him an Jt teach me fighting stuff till suns up. When suns up Atom and I patrol the borders together, usually no talking happens.  Jt works with me at night with shooting. I sit up and get dressed in tight black combat pants and a blue half shirt before Atom come in to wake me up. He looks surprised I’m ready to go but.

does not say anything,

How come you like never to talk to me unless you're telling what to do

Because I am not trying to be your friend

That is rude

I do not make relationships with people that are most likely going to die 

Thanks for the support

anytime princess

How come you will not fight me

Because I do not

We beat Jt to the spot we usually train, he will think we will not be here for another 30 min. I want Atom to fight me. I do not understand why I feel drawn to him. I swing at his head; he digs and steps back

Come on Lina

No

I swing at him again and he grabs my wrist, a jolt goes through my body I jump back from him.  He looks at my shocked, what the hell? He said he did not want to fight me. I take a step back and sink to me knees. Shock? what?

You felt that?

No

Yes, you did don't lie to me

Okay, what is it?

Last name Lina?

Parker

Parker… Your mom… you are one of us

What?

The shock, it’s a sign of uh bonding sorta I guess

Bonding?

I cannot explain this to you, but only people with the gift should be able to feel that shock

You

Lina, you cannot say anything to anyone, Damon hunts people like us

What the hell are you talking about

I’ll tell you more on patrol Lina, shut up

do not tell me to shut up

Fight me

Oh, so now it’s okay

Yes, do something are we are going to get in trouble

I kick him in the gut and flip over him, He picks me up and throws me into a tree. I wince and his hands loosen. I elbow his arm that is holding me and spin him around into the tree. He swings at me; I duck catch his hand and flip him onto the ground.

Well done, you have made progress. I want to send both of you with Brandon and JT.

Yes sir

good, go now they are preparing to leave.
