Kendra watched as Holly and Olivia were pushed out the door, it closing behind them. "Everything alright?" she asked taking a sip of her coffee.

"No, nothing is alright. The world is cascading into endless turmoil, the apocalypse is upon us. Death is something that nobody can escape." Holly told Kendra.

Olivia pushed Holly lightly "Don't be mean!" she said laughingly.

"I'm not being mean, I'm being realistic." she said.

"Dont forget i know where you sleep" Kendra pointed out, obviously joking… mostly

"Creep." Holly scoffed.

Cal watched the two girls talk before he moved towards the counter, grabbing his medication and fumbling to open it. After a few moments, he grabbed two pills and downed them with water, returning to his spot on the couch next to Jazza. "Do you think we'll have any new people that are around my age?" Cal asked as he ran a hand through his messy hair.

"I'll be okay Abby. No reason to worry." Veda said softly. She thought back to how many times she had repeated those words. And how many times she had been wrong. Her phone buzzed again, saying the same name as before. Veda ignored it.

"You. Lie. Tell me what's wrong, and you can start with this." Abby held up Veda's phone.

"Sweetie were all fairly close in age." she pointed out. "But if you mean like actually 14/15, its possible"

"Its also not creepy Holly. its just common sense"

Veda frowned at her phone. "It's a long story. And I don't think you want to hear about seven years of torture."

"Sweetie were all fairly close in age." she pointed out. "But if you mean like actually 14/15, its possible"

Cal hummed in agreement as he resumed his gaze on the television, only glancing away to look towards Abby and Veda. He furrowed his brow faintly, hating to see Veda look so tired and distracted.

"I will if it can save you from seven more years of being haunted by it," Abby replied.

"Sweetie were all fairly close in age." she pointed out. "But if you mean like actually 14/15, its possible"

Cal hummed in agreement as he resumed his gaze on the television, only glancing away to look towards Abby and Veda. He furrowed his brow faintly, hating to see Veda look so tired and distracted.

(They are in a bedroom and the door is shut.)

Kendra took her mug to the couch and sat . she pulled her legs up and sat criss-cross, sipping her coffee and watching the movie

"Sweetie were all fairly close in age." she pointed out. "But if you mean like actually 14/15, its possible"

(oof, sorry about that.)

Veda sighed, giving in. "Well I suppose I should start with this." She took off her hoodie, leaving just her tank top. The scars running down her arms and shoulders seemed to stand out. "Eight years ago I was kidnapped off the streets as I was walking home from school. I was only twelve. I got taken to an island, with nothing but the clothes on my back and the word 'survive'. It didn't know what to do. Thankfully, there were others on the island. Unfortunately, I found out that over fifty percent of human trafficking of people under twenty all went to that island. We were hunted as sport." Veda began.
