The snarls of Demented grew loud far behind us. With it were the jarring sound of flying bullets then a rumbling explosion. A battle was going on somewhere near us. Hope hit me heard. That meant that there were other survivors. Quickening our steps, that battle helped us in trying to get the hell outta there.
âSis, look!â Alisha said tugging on me while we ran.

Massive headlights flipped on and off beaming our way. As we headed towards the lights, a huge street barricade came in view. We had found a safe haven. So, we hoped. People with flashing golden eyes, with the marks of the Hunters in their pupils, walked around in the distance. Many were dressed in everyday clothes. The rest were soldiers.
âHelp us, my sister needs help. I need help!â I desperately yelled.
âState your class!â Some solider yelled in the distance.
I wasnât sure what to say exactly so I yelled, âWeâre not the Demented! Weâre human!â
âHuman is not a class. State your class!â
The longer we stayed in the open with the Demented around, the quicker we were going to die. So, I held up my hands and let my aura wrap around my palms then yelled, âCivilian! We hunt the Demented! Please, help!â
âDEMENTED!â Someone yelled. Followed by, âLet them in hurry.
The sound of an object being dejected followed by a quaking fiery explosion made me hold my sister close to me and look over my shoulder. Downtown St. Louis was on fire, and heading our way were clusters of Demented with snarling nasty faces. They used whatever they could as weapons, like my sister and I also have done. Many leaped in the air, and otherâs scaled light poles.
My stomach clenched in fear and I shifted on my feet, âOh, come the hell on yaâll! Weâre on your side! Let us in please!â
Soldiers disappeared, and it grew silent.
âAre we safe?â Alisha weakly asked.
âI hope so,â I responded.
As I said that, as a large barricaded door opened, and masked soldiers with rifles and blades rushed past us.
âLetâs go baby sis,â I said helping Alisha stand on her own.
âGood,â she said. âIâm hungry and tired.
I laughed. âMe too.â
With a sharp tremble the echo of our never-ending hunger danced through our bodies and mind, hands clasped together to keep our balance, we walked ahead, exhausted, and full of hope. Only to have it blasted away at the sound of guns going off aimed at us.
âAlisha!â I hollered as she collapsed to the ground.
Whipping around to cover my sis, my moment of gratefulness disappeared when I saw my sister hit with what I realized were darts. I was so dumb. My dad used to say, âNot all skin folk are your kinfolkâ â in this case, not all hunters could be trusted and suddenly that reality hit me hard.
Furious, I used my last bit of strength to plummet into a solider.
I slammed him to the ground knocking his mask off. His dark eyes with two red dots narrowed in anger.
