The Last Illiad Chp.5
By NeonBlade
When Tony woke a few hours after he had passed out, he found himself laying ontop of some warm blankets. Slowly every thing came back into vision and Tony could see where he was, a small crevis in a brick wall. He could tell that he was still under ground in subway terminal. A figure came into the hole and sat down not noticing that Tony was awake. Tony peered up to the figure who he could tell was the young girl that had saved his neck before.
" Hi..." Tony breathed trying to speak through his weakness.
" Oh- I see you're awake. How are you feeling?" The girl crawled over to where Tony was, trying not to hit her head on the low ceiling.
" I'm sorry to be here, taking up room." Tony smirked a little hoping the girl would smile too.
" You're not taking up space! It's just- My brother likes to be in charge and feel like a king but he wouldn't of hurt you. We're not one of those kind of grouops that'll kill any body for territory." Tony thought back to blade and sighed. The girl moved closer to tony taking something from her pant's pocket. Tony could see it was an old glass bottle filled with liquid.
Tony took the bottle graciously and took a huge gulp that finished the entire bottle. To Tony's relief it was water-clean water and it was cold too.
" My name is Claire!" The young girl smiled holding out her hand for Tony to shake.
" My name's Tony." Tony set down the bottle and shook CLaire's hand. Claire giggled and moved into the light that was lit by a small fire in the corener of the hole. For the first time Tony could see CLaire's face. She was cute with big green eyes and long brown hair. She had a small mouth to go along with the rest of her cute face. Claire was about the same hight as Tony. Tony sat up, trying to over come the weakness and droussiness. Toy looked down his body finding rags for bandages over his chest and other bruised areas. Claire moved to the edge of the hole and jumped down. Tony felt strong enough to follow Claire.
After a minute of struggle to get his clothes back on and wrestle to blankets away and jump out, he cought up with Claire. They both made there way up the terminal stairs and up onto ground level. Tony could see the tallest reamins of a building that he had ever seen pasted infront of a dusty orange sky.
" Does any body live in that building" Tony said continuing to eye the remains.
" Yeah. Why do you ask?" Claire answered as she continued toward the building.
" Because, where I live is in a valley of durt piles and wrekages.
"Where is it that you exactly live?" Claire questioned amusingly.
" They call it "Burnout Valley." Tony smirked at the stupid name.
" Who's they and why do they call it that?" Claire moved up the front step to the remaining structure.
" They is the Blood gang and it's called that because the sky is darker that yours, it has mounds of dirt and piled garbage and there's no order. no guidance." Tony got angry at his own words. But it was true. Kid ran the show. There were practically no more elders or parents.All he could see was Blade with his small poss'e standing in the subway tracks.
Tony made his way up the step when a chirping sound came from a few hundred feet away. Tony didn't know what the noise was, but every one else roaming aroung began to run to take cover. Tony followed Claire in to the building and waited
