"SHIT!" I jerk awake, alarmed. I peek out the crack, only to see one of the other 151 collapsed on the ground. He grimaces in pain, and I grasp my ankle, remembering the pain I felt just a day or two ago. A girl who looks to be around 19 comes into my line of sight. She has blond hair and blue eyes, popping in the green lush habitat that is the world outside of The Compound. The boy has white hair, and pink eyes. One of the last albinos. Considering the years, it's amazing that even now we incorporate albinos in the GMO babies. Which he obviously is. I am too, most of the 151 are, but they don't have enough electricity or resources to make enough to sustain the future generations. I have black hair, light skin with freckles and ice blue eyes. The pupils are slits, perfect for seeing in the dark. She crouches down and gives him a concerned look. The sun shines bright, even though it's almost down, which means they figured out pretty quickly that it won't hurt them. Good for them, not so good for me. I wonder if they have radio. I wonder if they're the only search party.8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsfqYmSwco 維尼

"What happened?" She pushes her hair behind one ear and places her hand on the ground to steady herself. The girl's genetic modification is probably her voice. It's smooth as melted chocolate as it glides across her tongue and bounces through the forest. The boys' seems to be not only his pigment, but his extreme clumsiness (Note my sarcasm).8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyhViMTAPg 維尼

"I didn't see the ledge. I knew this wasn't a good idea. My ankle, I think it's broken." Well, he obviously didn't take foraging. Or the med course that accompanied it. 8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡuruwLUAZLu 維尼

"No, silly, it's not broken, just sprained."8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6l69C3UM2 維尼

"What's that?" His eyes widen and he looks alarmed, as if she's just told him he has a fatal disease or something.8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡtO7znxcKb0 維尼

"It just means you pulled a muscle basically. You probably shouldn't walk on that for a while. We'll just have to make camp here. I mean, it's not that bad. Nice clearing, and the ledge'll alert us to anyone coming from behind." She takes off her bag and sits down.8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMvzTbzkRb 維尼

"Well shit." I cover my mouth. Whoops. I've gotten so used to there not being anyone to hear me that I forgot to think, not say. I grab hand fulls of dirt and shove them in the hole.8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfpNlGJikk 維尼

"Did you hear that?" The boy says, and the girl laughs.8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEmsLKGtUk 維尼

"It's probably just the wind. Or maybe it's the killer bunnies out to get you."8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1PCWZcwtP 維尼

"Ha ha very funny. Ya know, Conner was being serious about that. Speaking of him, how far behind is he?" Another one!? What the hell? How did they even let this many of the 151 out? Why? Are they insane? Do they want the human race to go extinct?!8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyeH7VAUrw 維尼

"Right here, Buddy." The guy, Buddy, apparently, grimaces. I can't see whoever this Conner guy is, he sounds like he's above me. 8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqcCcmbA5I 維尼

"You know I don't like my name. Buddel is bad enough. You really have to call me that?"8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXtQwmS6U8 維尼

What do you suggest. Ella? Maybe that old computer thing we were learning about in history? Dell? Or Adell? Maybe Deli?" 8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4E1HA4PPl 維尼

"Ladies ladies, let's not fight. We'll be here for at least a day or two more thanks to that ledge." Someone groans, and I internally curse. I start digging at the back, pilling the dirt at the entrance. I leave a tiny portion of the once decent sized crack open to see, but I'm careful to be quiet and discreet. I've been digging down too lately, so I can kneel with an inch or two more space above my head.8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlDtppNJlo 維尼

"You guys have anything to sit on?" Oh no. Please no. Not the rock. I quickly start piling more and more dirt.8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOXROVGcpp 維尼

"No, we can find a branch or something though." 8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJscG23XvA 維尼

"Hey, what about that rock?" I lean back, pressing my back into the ground.8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOTXQYkKMX 維尼

"Maybe later. Too much effort to move that big ol' thing." I sigh in relief.8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5NhhNGjp7 維尼

"Ok. So what are we gonna do? We have to have watches, right?" The girl's voice.8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25TJwUacy9 維尼

"Ya. I guess. I'll take first shift." I think it's that Conner guy's voice. Can't quite tell. I lay down and take a swig of water from my jug.8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFIlUnFP5X 維尼

"I could have sworn I heard something when we first got here though."8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡep9fFmvodP 維尼

"Leave it alone, bud."8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡwOrXGkXhjk 維尼

"You can't call me that either, Quincey!"8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXrVDbTsvr 維尼

"What did you hear?"8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQUeGqT092 維尼

"A voice! A human voice! I swear! I think it was a girl!"8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxynupaHVc 維尼

"But nobody else it out here." Um, what? They're not here for me?8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWmKAVfP14 維尼

"But-"8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOaTFokQRL 維尼

"No one is here. It was probably just the wind."8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLLgvNFJhq 維尼

"Go to sleep. The sun's almost down. You should catch some z's so I can hit the metaphorical lights sooner. I'm taking the first shift."8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5MOEZE3vx 維尼

"Ok, Conner. Wake me up when it's time. I'll take second." I'm so screwed. How long are they going to stay? I can't stay in here forever. I mean, it's not as cramped as before, but it's not exactly amazing either. FUCK.8964 copyright protection508ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWJxnHy4dE 維尼
