Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys

My first chapter enjoy

The more I think about it the more I feel I am dying on the inside. The thought of being alone scared the hell out of me, it has always just been me and my older sister until… the draculoids ("Draculoids" and exterminators, such as Korse from the S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W Unit). I was all alone until 1 year ago today…

I was walking down a long deserted road, when a radio broadcast started to play from a shop window. I’ve heard it once before from a distance it... gave me new hope.” The person who was broad casting said The future is bulletproof The aftermath is secondary It's time to do it now and do it loud KIlljoys make some noise!”, It made me wonder if there were other people like me struggling to carry on.  I walked on I made to this unfamiliar, dessert I thought “well is this f*****g great!”  I trudged on through what seemed a continuous desert.  I swallow it felt like I had just swallowed glass I was so thirsty. In the distance I saw a couple of buildings I thought I might be hallucinating so I walked right past when all of a sudden I felt a sharp, painful stun to my leg… I had been shot by a Draculoid!

Everything fades to black and I see my sister she is calling me over I am running towards her and crying out “ RAAVEEN TAKE ME WITH YOU!!!”  When all of a sudden a cold white light wakes me up.  I see two girls probably a year or two older then myself (I am 19). In front of me is a girl with blonde hair and has a bandana over her mouth and another girl with long brown hair tied back in a ponytail. I start to try to move my hand but I can’t they were tied up, a few seconds later I hear one of the girls say “hey she is coming to” I see the two of them running towards me.  I look at my leg my jeans were cut off just above my knee and my bag was half way across the room I was in. The girl with blonde hair tried talking to me but I was slipping in and out of conscious. When I fell asleep this time I didn’t see my sister I saw the Draculoids taking my only family away, I remember trying to stop them but I… I just stood there motionless scared as my older sister screamed “RUN!! RUN SCOUT!!  DON’T LOOK BACK!!” as reality sets in I broke from my horrible memories, relived, yet sad.

I wake up on a blanket in a dark room I try to get up but my leg hurts so badly I let out a cry of pain. A few seconds later the blonde girl rushes in and says “ It is ok your leg just needs a night of healing so take it easy, My name is Wolfblood Static Monster but you can call me Wolfblood… What’s yours?” I took a few minutes to respond because I was getting my head straight. I respond by saying “ Scout…” she looked shocked and said “ WE DON’T USE “real names” we use nick names” it made sense her name is Wolfblood. I think about what I should be called and I blurted out “Toxicfun!” it for some strange reason it reminds me of Raven.  The next morning I stand up and my leg feels a lot better but I still have a stinging pain I walk out of my room and down the hall and see Wolfblood talking to other people one girl and one boy.

When I come in complete silence falls upon the room, the awkward silence is broken Wolfblood says “this is Disenchanted destiny you can call her Disenchanted, and this is Lostboy” I walk over and sit down.  Lostboy seems like the oldest and the one who takes charge Disenchanted asks “Hey what’s your story?” I say “well my sister was taken and now I am here…” I felt that there was not much else I could say.  Lostboy starts to assaign jobs “Wolfblood, you get nooby over here situated and Disenchanted guard the place we don’t want another accident like yesterday, and I will go get supplies” Lostboy left.  Wolfblood took me through the small shack with two back rooms and one main room with little furniture. 

She showed me the room I was sleeping in before and she said “this is where we sleep!” I saw four blankets laid out across the floor and my bag! I run towards it and open it inside I find a picture of my sister and all my spare clothing gone “where are my clothing!!” Wolf blood says “Oh, Pixiedust is washing them!” I thought ‘Pixiedust?’ I was just glad my sister’s picture was untouched!
