In the morning, I awoke to the sound of the alarm bell ringing. Tony jumped out of bed, still naked. He put a leg into his pants. I got up and grabbed a shirt. After we were dressed, we ran out of my sleeping quarters and toward his office. Screams could be heard as we ran out of the building. Cricket, tired and weary, stood near the gate. When he saw us, he ran in our direction.

“What do you think is going on?” I asked as we ran.

“I have no idea, but it doesn’t sound good,” he replied.

We made it to his office in record time.

“You’re back?” I asked Cricket. “Do you know what’s going on?”

“Bad attack. Gonna lose.”

“Ravagers?” I asked.

He shook his head. “House Ballmore.”

Did I hear that right?

Tony put his hand on Cricket’s shoulder. “Are you sure?”

“Yeah Gov. Many fighters.”

“Are they here for me?” I asked Tony.

“I have no idea. We need to go.”

“Go where?”

“Out of the factory-city.”

“Run again?” I yelled, not believing my ears.

“Run today. Fight tomorrow,” Cricket said.

“Go gather as many people as you can and meet us back at the warehouse by the underground tunnels.”

Cricket took off running. Tony turned to me.

“We’re not ready for a real attack. Those ravagers the other day were nothing.”

I frowned, knowing he was right.

“I am going to find out what I can. You get to the warehouse with as many people as you can and wait for me. If we can’t hold the city, we’re going to leave.”

My heart beat quickly in my chest. I said, “Okay.”

He gave me a peck on the lips then took off in the opposite direction Cricket had gone in. I turned and headed toward the warehouse. On the way, I grabbed as many people as I could, telling them we had to leave or we would die. When I got to the building and went inside, Cricket and a few others were stacking boxes of chocolate and food by our escape route. I helped get as much stuff ready as possible.

About ten minutes later, Tony ran into the warehouse. Blood ran down the left side of his face. I rushed over and brushed his hair back.

“Are you okay? What happened?”

“There’s too many of them,” he said gravely. “We need to go or they’re going to kill us.”

“Did you see my brother?” I asked.

He walked toward the others without answering. I frowned but followed him. A little over two dozen of us, men and women, whites and blacks, climbed down into the sewer. After all the boxes of chocolate and supplies we could carry were lowered, Tony closed the opening.

“It’s so dark!” someone yelled.

“Are we going to die?” someone else asked.

“Settle down,” Tony said, taking charge. “This is going to be tough, but it has to be done. They surprised us, and they have about ten trained veterans for every single person on our security team. If we want to live, we need to go. It’s not the best solution, but it’s the only one we got.
