It was a new place and a new night for the guy who walked into the mess hall kitchen area. He knew he was going to stay here, some one had told him that this was the safest place in the united states for him. He became infected after a girl he thought he loved and got him infected. This boys name was Jade Collins and well he couldn't live in the sun anymore. He loved the fact he didn't have to be amoung the normal every day people but he hated it because he wasn't able to search for his sister that he hadn't seen in some time.
He sat in the mess hall having some food before he wandered around this place. He was clueless on what was going on and everything. He sighed a little and started to eat some bread it was really different right then and there because he wasn't eating a hole lot of food. He was still starving but he looked healthy well enough to function and everything. He contiued to eat the bread very intersted in something he was reading.
Part of his mind went back to before he was like this to when he would be on tour with his band and then the girl he loved. He wondered what happened to her. He figured she might have gotten caught because that night they were after her. That very night he broke up with her. He heard some foot steps behind him as he just ignored who ever it was. He was eating naturally.

Well Taja had sure had an interesting night. She was up for pretty much off of it with Erik. She still couldn't believe what had all happened in one night. Now Erik was her boyfriend. He had been her best friend since they were about 7 but now they were more then that. Taja wasn't sure how she felt about that, but she did know that she loved Erik. He was the only one in the world she could trust. Thats why she let what happen last night happen. True Taja's reputation said she was a slut but that was not true. Last night was the first time she ever had sex of her own free will. She thought she would be scared, and at first she was. But she couldn't be scared around Erik.
Taja woke up late, as she did most days when she actually fell asleep. She did her make up and then went down to the mess hall. No she wouldn't eat much, but she was thirsty. Taja walked into the mess hall. Got a bottle of iced tea and sat down. This was a normal morning for her. She picked a vacant table, though there was only a few people in the room. If she sat with someone they would expect her to b bitch and she wasn't awake enough for that. She opened her iced tea and took a sip, then promptly layed her head on the table. Taja had insomnia ever since her father started coming into her room at night, beating and raping her. As she got older he would drag her to the garage and cut her up with power tools. She grew a habit of staying away and shaking, being scared that her father would walk in any moment.

Jade just sat there eating the bread like it wasn't nothing new. He couldn't help but remeber how he use to look. He looked different then his sibblings he had his mothers black hair though he usse to keep it nicely cut. He didn't start growing his hair out till his baby sister left. He wanted to hide what he looked like from his father. He was still living in a bit fear but he liked the hair because it was long and well he had added peircings and tattoo's. He wondered if any of his sibblings would reconize him.He heard those foot steps go to a different table.
He stood up going to get some bottle of water. He walked over to the fridge grabbing one. He had just arrived a few hours ago he couldn't sleep at all. He sighed a little noticing a girl that looked like his sister taja. Though a bit older then what she was. He bit his lip the normal shy boy was taking a chance with talking to any one. He bit his lip a little sitting down across from the girl he started to play out of habbit with his lip ring he couln't help it at all. he didn't know what to say or anything. "um... hi..."he said quitely. He finally looked at her hoping she of all people would reconize him with out saying a word.

Taja's clothes were not that revealing but people told her they were skanky. She wore black skinny jeans, as normal, and a tight black Joan Jett and the Blackhearts shirt, also normal. She hadn't really changed since leaving home. Maybe a new tattoo or piercing but she had so many you would tell. The way she was half sitting half laying pulled her shirt up enough to see the roses on her lower back. You could also see a panda, her favorite animal, on her neck and a Rise Against fist on her wrist. Her other tattoos were hidden under clothing. Her visible piercing were on her tongue, nose, lip and, eyebrow. Yes a little over board but thats how she liked it.
Taja felt the table move but she didn't look up. Maybe it was Erik. Or someone she actually liked. If it wasn't she just hoped that who ever it was would keep their mouth closed. But as normal they did not. "um... hi..." Taja looked up and was about to say something before she saw that she did not know who it was. When she looked closer she found that she did in fact know the guy. Jade, her older brother. Inwardly Taja did hold some anger against her three brothers. She knew she shouldn't but something inside said that they should have figured it out. They should have made him stop. Jade looked quite different though. More like Taja herself, though she still had her blond hair. Taja was closer to her brothers when she was younger but as she grew older she started to resent them more and more. And plus they were to good boy for her. Jade looked like he had changed. He was quieter. Taja rolled her eyes. "Well I guess not every morning is bright and shiny." She rested her chin on her folded arms.

Jade looked at her curious upon seeing her look up she had looked like him taking after a little bit. He didn't know how to begin on this he was way quite a lot shyer then he wa when e was younger. He couldn't help it he found things in his life were different with the changing and passing times from the day he left the house. He contuied to played with his lip ring he couldn't help it he was more nervious then he had ever been in hi lip. He looked around this place it had its own homey touch to it.
He heard her voice as she spoke "I know this is... different seeing me here and well... not looking the same when you were younger."He said softly. He bit is lip a little looking down to the table his hands were shaking worse then they had before. "look to be honnest I didn't know what happened to you till.. you left... and he.."he said stoping right there. He didn't want to go further. Most of his tattoos hide scars like the one on his neck hid a huge scar from a night he became a victum to the knife. He remebered everything about that. he sighed a little looking up at her now

"I know this is... different seeing me here and well... not looking the same when you were younger." Taja rolled her eyes. He had long hair and thats all see saw that was different. Other then tattoos and piercings, but that wasn't a big deal for her. She had her own nice little collection of them. If fact she was planing out a new tattoo, as always. But it wasn't like she hadn't seen Jade in ten years. She had only been gone over a year. And what a wonderful year it had been. Well, she hoped Jade wouldn't screw up everything that she had made for herself here. It was just like her family to screw everything up, though Jade wasn't the worse out of the four others in the Collins family. "Different? Is that what you would call it?" She wondered if he was infected and was hiding here or if he traced her to here. Or both. But why would he want to find her? "Plus, I've only been gone a year."
"look to be honest I didn't know what happened to you till.. you left... and he.." Taja lifted her head up and laughed. Not the 'oh-somethings-funny' laugh but the 'tajas-evil' laugh. "Oh, and now you do know what happened, right? All of what happened? How he gagged me so my screams for help would wake you and Scott and Justin." She said in her ever so bitchy tone. She shook her head. "And he what?" Taja looked around. "Listen, I'm not gonna talk about this here." She sighed, and rolled her eyes again. "Come on." She go up, grabbed her ice tea and walked back to her room, stopping at the door to see if he had fallowed.

Jade sighed a little this how it had been since Taja was older. Ofcourse Jade was never there for the nights and wne he was he was always with some girl. He looked at her a little the blue eyes were just so sad. His actions showed for why he was here. "Different yes, its different became the worse because I have become one of the infected now."He said softly. He sighed a little looking around he couldn't help it right now. People were making him nervious he wasn't like this when he wa younger he was a bad ass a year ago. Though no one knew it.
He sighed a little listining to her what she aid. "I was never at the house when all of this went on. Look I couldn't stand up for my self nor could I stand up for you. I left at nights when I turned 15, I am sorry I couldn't be there for you. I am sorry I didn't call the cops but you think he didn't just do it too you? you really didn't know what went on."He said with hints of anger oh yes the asshole that Jade was when he was younger was coming back. He stood up and followed her to her room. He sighed a little moving his hair behind his ear and started to play with hi lip ring again. He couldn't help it at all

"Different yes, its different became the worse because I have become one of the infected now." Taja made a frowning face. "Ohhh, I feel so bad for you." She said in mock sympathy. Taja had been infected for a year, she had no sympathy for Jade, Taja opened the door to her and Eriks room. One side was covered in Joan Jett and the blackheart posters with stuffed animals on a shelf. The other side was kind of plain. There was two queen beds, both with black covers. One was unmade, and in kind of a mess, the other made perfectly. It was easy to tell whos side was whos. Taja walked in and sat on her bed, though it wasn't the one she had woken up in this morning. She wondered where Erik was, but was glad he was gone.
"I was never at the house when all of this went on. Look I couldn't stand up for my self nor could I stand up for you. I left at nights when I turned 15, I am sorry I couldn't be there for you. I am sorry I didn't call the cops but you think he didn't just do it too you? you really didn't know what went on." Taja grinned. "Oh look, Jades coming back!" Her grin turned to her bitchy face. "You think I wanted you to stand up for me? Might have been nice, but I couldn't give a fuck." The truth was that Taja could have easily stood up for herself, if she wasn't so terrified. "And cops? That would do a lot right? I would tell the whole story about how 'daddy touched my special place' and Dad would confess to it all and we'd life happily ever after." Taja laughed again. "I don't know what went on." She moved aside the bracelets on her wrist to show a round scar. "Power drill. Missed the artery, too bad." Taja got up and put her iced tea on her dresser, then went over to her mirror. She pulled out her ponytail and smothed her long blond hair down with her fingers.

Jade remebered why he hated talking to his sibblings. His sibblings fueled the hatered for his family the stuff that he couldn't stand them at all. Taja was always a bitch to him since she turned 7 and he was 13. He was kind of the older brother from hell, he told things how they were and what should be happening naturally. Jade was the rebel of the family the whore. "yeah whatever your not sorry at all. You probabally find this funny that I am infected of all people, the whore of the family oh yes and thats excatly how I was infected to."He said harshly towards her. it showed his family pissed him off
He sat down on the floor looking down at the ground listining to her. "Look little miss bitch, everything wasn't sun shine and rainbows for me either. I was abuse matter of a fact he hit me and almost killed me five times, then when you left it was worse. All my tattoo cover the shit he did too me. And guess what hes in Jail. I thought this would be nice coming back and seeeing you. but I guess I was wrong. Your no better then what you were when you lived at home. Your a bitch and probabally deserved everything you got."He said standing up. Jade could have been as bad as his dad only his temper got the betterof him and he always left when that happened. He started to head towards the door. He was not happy about this meeting.

"Look little miss bitch," Was all Erik heard before he decked Jade.
"Who the fuck is that Taj?" Erik shook his fist to relieve the pain in his hand. "Shit I hit him hard." He laughed.
Erik was extremely over protective of Taja, especially now that they were dating.

Your no better then what you were when you lived at home. Your a bitch and probabally deserved everything you got." A tear rolled down Tajas cheek, bringing eyeliner with it. It hurt to hear her brother say that. When she was younger she was close only to Jade. As she grew up she still felt closer to him, but she was too much of a hard ass to be the sweet little girl she once was. No she had to make everyone think she was such a bitch. She was used to the ones she loved seeing through it, no, she was used to Erik seeing through it.
"Who the fuck is that Taj?" Taja had hardly heard the door open but she faintly saw Erik hitting Jade. Taja had told him all about Jade. How she did in fact kind of miss him. How she wondered how he was, that he most likely hated her. "Jade." She said without turning around. "Shit I hit him hard." Taja smiled. She knew that feeling. Still without turning around she grabbed her iced tea bottle and tossed it on his bed close to him. It was still cold. "Don't let it swell up. That leaves was too much room for harassment." Looking into the mirror still she licked her finger and wiped off the smeared eyeliner. She she grabbed her eyeliner and fixed the line of black under her eye.

Jade had seen a faint tear before getting hit. His night was acctually going wonderful all things considering. He had fell to the floor, who ever hit him was going to have it coming to him once he got up and wasn't a little dizzy. He closed his eyes taking a deep breath knowing that he wasn't going to hit the guy who he barely saw back. No he was just going to leave. His mind was racing with thoughts about everything. He didn't want to leave his sister but he didn't want to listen to her being like this. It reminded him well of his old self the asshole and the partier.
He moved away from her bottle and off her bed as he took the bottle with him holding it to his face. "What the hell kid"He said to the guy who hit him. Jade had already hi temper and with this hitting him it fueled what was already going on. Jade turned around hitting Erik back. Though jade being a smart boy after the fact realized this boy was Erik taja's friend. really the only friend Jade could stand at that matter. He bit his lip a little and started to head for the door turning around and tossing tzaja her bottle. "Sorry about this meeting..."He said as he stood at the door looking at them. Jade was older and probabally shouldn't have just it Erik

Erik laughed as he stumbled backwards after being hit. He saw it coming, I mean you cant really hit someone and expect not to be hit back. He jokingly moaned and said, "Ooh, hurt me good." and a smile crossed his face. He stood his ground and looked at Jade as he left.
Turning back to Taja he said, "What was his deal? Ex boyfriend? Some random asshole from around the compound?" He looked worried as he said the last one. Sebastion would kill him if he hurt another refugee for some stupid reason.

Out of the mirror Taja saw Jade start to leave. She started to go to the door when she heard Erik talk. "What was his deal? Ex boyfriend? Some random asshole from around the compound?" Taja shook her head and looked at Erik. "He's my brother." Taja sighed and rushed to the door. She didn't want Jade to leave. She wanted to hug him, tell him it was ok, that she didn't hate him. If fact, she loved him. But Taja just couldn't do that, it had been programed into her brain that that kind of stuff showed weakness, emotion. Maybe because Erik was here Taja would calm down, she always seemed more layed back around Erik... unless they were getting in trouble together.
Taja caught Jade just before he walked away. "Jade..." She took a deep breath. "Come back, I'm... uh... I'm s.. I'm sorry." Taja started to play with her tongue ring, as she did when she was bored or nervous. She knew that Jade knew how hard that was for her. Taja couldn't remember anytime she had said sorry in her life, not even to Erik. It was a word that wasn't in her vocabulary. "I didn't mean to be a bitch, you just showed up out of the blue, how do you expect me to react?" Taja shrugged and looked down at the floor, another thing she would never do.

Jade head out of the room, he glared at Erik as he walked though. To him that was not over with he would come back. Well thats what he thought, but for the moment he would calm down and find something else in this place for him to do. He sighed a little looking around the place noticing difference in this hiding place was just like the underground he was in for a year. He sighed a little sitting down a few doors away from Taja's room. He sighed closing his eyes. He wondered what was going to happen if he left this place. He knew that it would be hard to do anything with out getting caught. He sighed a little hearing some foot steps.
He stood up looking at his sister wondering why she was even talking to him. He basically called her everything he knew. But when she said she was sorry he was curious. "wait what?"he said wanting to hear that one again. He sighed a little listening to what she said. He knew she had a point and it was probably the best thing if he did go back with her. "Look I thought you change you know grew older lost the attitude that you have had since forever. I mean I stopped being the total ass hole I once was... though terribly sorry about your friend"He said softly basically saying that he would
