when he got to their usual spot.
When he walked in the hideout , everyone stopped what they were doing and looked to Drew who looked mad.
“Anyone want to tell me why we’ve lost someone?” He growled, his friends shifted in their seat uncomfortably, they have never seen him so angry.”Answer me!”
“J-jason went on a walk by himself,” Skylar said
“ Why not in a group?” He asked, his eyes burning a light green.
“I don’t know,”
“Well this mistake lost us Jason, are you happy?”He asked rudely. His friends looked down and said nothing. Drew sighed and looked away from his friends.
“Drew you were out by yourself last night,”Adrian accused
“Thats because I’m a Darkling and know my way around when its dark, hence the term Darkling,” Drew hissed, he was annoyed with himself and the others. Why had he gotten sick, and why did his friends be stupid like that? he wondered.
Adrian stood, and started walking out the door.
“Where do you think you’re going,” Drew asked
“Home,” He said
“Then take someone,”
“Skylar?” Adrian turned around to look at him, he stood up and followed. Haku and Daniel got up too and left.
Drew closed his eyes, they didn’t realize how hurt he was and was struggling to be good.They obviously didn’t care anymore about him, he wanted to leave forever and he could.

Leroy watched as Drew’s friends came home, no Drew, and by that he knew that it didn’t go well for him it was like his friends have disowned him as a friend. That was bad very bad the worse thing that could possibly happen, as a Darkling Drew needed friends, or he would turn evil. Hopefully he wouldn’t turn evil.
“Boys,” Leroy called,” Where’s Drew?”
“In the hide out,”Daniel replied
“He’s not like himself,”Haku said
“Yeah, he’s scary,”Adrian said
“No guys he’s just mad,”Skylay told them.
“When you left, what color were his eyes?” Leroy asked
“They looked like they were glowing green,” Hake said
“How did you leave?”
“We just got up and left,”
“All of you at the same time?” Ian asked, behind Leroy. He was sitting in one of the couched that were on the bottom floor.
“That wasn’t nice,” Derrick chided
“What would you think of him if he just left you completely ?” Saku asked.
“Yeah, he may think you’ve abandoned him completely, since what has happened to him,” Stefan said,” If Leroy, Axil, Sake, Derrick, and Ian all left me when my brother died, I think I might just run away,”
“But he yelled at us,” Skylar declared.
“Maybe, but he was hurt and stressed and sad,” Stefan said ,” He needs friends especially now,”
All four boys were quite.
“Want to know why?”Ian asked
“Why?” Adrian asked
“Because if not he’ll turn evil, this will only happen if he thinks you have abandoned him and hate him for what he has become, which wasn’t his fault all of you could have helped him when that Darkling attacked him,” Axil explained.
“Thats a little extreme isn’t it?”Haku said.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Drew sat on the chair near the open door that he had forgotten to shut, someone walked in. He didn’t bother to look up from his lap, he just felt drained and annoyed. Maybe his friends, were scared of him he hasn’t gotten mad at them before that was probably the reason. When they come, back he’ll tell them that he was sorry and hopefully they’ll forgive him.
He finally glanced up and saw a Darkling standing in front of him, the Darkling was a boy his age with bright green eyes, and white hair like himself his skin was the same color too.
“Who are you?” Drew asked,looking up at the boy.
“Roy Naveen,” Roy said
“Drew Naveen, why do you have that same last name as me?” Drew asked
“I’m you’re twin,”
“My twin is dead,”
“They thought I was dead, I wasn’t just half alive, Gordon knew that,” Roy explained. Drew looked in his eyes, he knew that was the truth just by looking at him and then just his eyes.
“Who’s Gordon?” Drew asked.
“Our brothers best friend, he wasn’t dead, just hurt now he isn’t” just as Roy said that a man walked in the room, Drew looked at him. The man must be Gordon.
“My brother thinks you’re dead you know that right?” Drew said then heard a moaning,” Crap, you brought Zombies with you, how well are you at sprinting?”
“Well enough,” Gordon replied.
“You better be great,” Drew insisted, he stood and pushed the two out of the room he shut and locked it.” Follow quickly now,”
They sprinted down the road, Drew peered behind them. The Zombies were advancing upon them.
When they arrived at the building Drew unlocked the door and proceeded into the building. Drew shut and locked the door, behind him he noticed that his friends and brother were staring at him.
“What?” He questioned them, Leroy stood and looked at Gordon and then Roy.
“Drew who are these to,” Leroy asked
“I am pleased to introduce, Gordon and Roy,” Drew said smiling.
Leroy peered into Gordon’s eyes and then he could tell that was true, “ Gordon...” He smiled,” I thought you were dead,”
“I am not, who are you?”
“Leroy, I’m Leroy Naveed,” Leroy exclaimed
“Really?” He asked, Leroy nodded vigorously. Gordon smiled and the two embraced,” Man, I havn’t seen you in such a long time,”
“It’s been twelve years,” Leroy said as they parted,” Whose Roy?”
“Your little brother, Drew’s twin, he wasn’t dead you know,”
“ Why does he look like a Darkling?”
“Because he is, our last gang wasn’t careful, we had a run in with them and Roy got the worse of it,” Gordon explained
“How many gangs have you been in?” Leroy asked.
“Fifteen,we hope this’ll be our last,but we're not sure considering there has been more and more zombie attacks,” he said ,” How long has it been since you have been out of this comforting place?”
“twelve years,”
“You’ve been lucky,” He said as they all heard a crash of glass in the back room, several kids screamed,” like I said we should start moving now, I saw one of your kids get attacked by a bitter four days ago,”
The Twenty-three kids ran up to them, looking for answers.
Leroy and Drew met eyes, they needed to leave they all knew that now, They’ve been here too long and now they needed to leave.

As Leroy and Gordon filled the kids out of the building Roy and Drew went to the back to defend just incase.
They all ran as fast as they could not really knowing where they’re going.

Part


Two..................................................................................................


Five week later.

During the run lots of the group got separated, Drew and his twin were together in one group and Drew’s friends have all vanished even his brother and Gordon the other kids got separated too. They all were on their own lost and scared.
Drew and Roy were still on the run, they only stopped to eat or drink, they kind of didn’t care about themselves and eachother now. They have been doing this for five weeks, they were now down near Long Beach Washington. The two have become quite good friends during the five weeks, Roy has been helping Drew to develop his powers.
“Just a little longer,” Roy said, as he watched Drew hold up a stone with his mind, well telekinesis really. There were less zombies down in long view, they slept on the beach most night well really on a ginormous rock. “ Okay let it down-gently,” Roy shook his head and smiled,” You’re getting better Drew,”
“Thats good I guess,” Drew sighed, and looked about the beach it was nice and calming, he wondered how long they could stay here until they had to move again. He enjoyed it. “So you were still alive when you were born?”
“Yeah, I was just wasn’t breathing very well,”
“I guess thats the reason why they thought you were dead,”
“Maybe,” Roy sighed and stretched out his legs, he lifted up a rock with his mind and skipped in across the lake they were near.
“I wish I could do that,” Drew whined, Roy smirked.
“Practice then, do expect your powers just to come to you?” Roy asked,” you have to work for them like everything else at life,”
“I know, but you make it look so easy,”
“Thats because I’ve had five months to practice, and you’ve only had five weeks,” Roy smiled,” you’ll get it bro’ you are a Naveed we can always do things right,”
“is that so?” Drew asked, Roy nodded,” okay,”
Drew started practicing again without Roy watching him, and soon he got the hang of it. He wondered how his brother was doing and then his friends too, he never did get to say sorry it didn’t really matter anymore because it was more likely he wouldn’t see them again for a really long time or they’ve already perished. He hoped for the best, but it was hard now to do that. Drew and his twin always have to look behind their backs.
