ᴍᴏɴᴛʜ: ꜰᴇʙʀᴜᴀʀʏ
It had been three years since you saw your parents being murdered in your living room since the civil war started, and since society starting to fall. First, it was the fight for the cure, then it was the fight for protection. Next, came the riots, the fight for food, and eventually, it all became a survival of the fittest. Electricity and communication were no more. You don't even remember the last time you saw a working TV. Family was no more. Violence and dishonesty were now the brutal answer.
These days, protection came in the form of clothing you owned and how much you had of it. After it became apparent that this virus was actually a bacteria born and flesh-eating disease, everyone did what they could to try and keep their skin protected as much as possible. It ate through the skin and took over your body like a plague. Heavy clothing equaled less chance of being infected. It didn't take very long for clothing stores to be looted along with the grocery and drug stores. Eventually, you'd have to make use of any clothing you found on dead bodies that were killed by assassination and not by the virus itself. You couldn't risk that.
But even that was rare to come by. Everyone jumped at the opportunity of a clothed dead corpse. Whether it was for the scarf, the pants, shoes, or socks.
During the riots, most of the homes had all been destroyed either by fire or vandalism. Some tainted by dead bodies; murder scenes. Some eaten by the virus. You didn't want to live in a home that was infected. Destroyed homes were ruined by the winter's harsh snowstorms and the summer's heavy rainfall. Because of their collapsed ceilings mixed in with the weather, it all eventually began to mold and collapse.
Life was no more, happiness and serenity were gone, except for in The Capitol.
No one could get inside The Wall. You heard rumors that it was guarded by heavy military and machine guns, and all of Hydra.
The Capitol was a place where your parents had planned for every single one of you to make use of to help you survive and live a happy life. It was supposed to be a safe haven, not this.
It was now the place that had been savagely stolen by Hydra and the evil rich. The migration into The Capitol had happened very soon after your parent's death. The rich, elite, privileged, and only some certain politicians, were taken in.
The other politicians, you heard in rumors, had either killed themselves or were killed by other government officials, just like your parents had been. You heard rumors that this had been an undercover mission for years. They all knew how to take over the moment it was necessary.
Even the doctors and scientists had been taken with them. And you wondered if it was at their own will. Meanwhile, everyone else - people like you and Will and simple middle-class families with children - were forced to fight each other to stay alive.
A bloodbath.
The first few months you and Will had refused to fight anyone for food. That wasn't in your moral plans. But it had eventually come a day when neither of you had eaten in three days, and the only thing left, in a dirty store off Route 95, was a loaf of bread. You, Will, and this random girl all argued until you eventually agreed on splitting it into three pieces.
The girl had been chewing her piece, devouring like she hadn't eaten in days when her eyes landed on the tattoo on your neck, and immediately you knew she knew who you were. Her eyes grew dark and she jumped at the chance to attack you when Will came from behind, hitting her on the back of the head with a heavy bucket, making her pass out.
You knew that no one really knew what happened to your family. They all think it was your parent's intentions for all of these horrible things to have happened. They blame you and your family for this. This only made you want to avenge your parents even more and even Will knew. This life wasn't what they wanted, and it's not what you wanted either.
You had been sitting one night, in the middle of a forest in Connecticut around a blazing fire, eating a fish you had just caught with your handmade spear. It had fed you both for many months. Will smiled over the fire at you, licking the meat off the bone clean.
"We'll get there, Y/N."
You stared at the fire in a daze. You hadn't lost hope. Or at least you don't think you did. Your feet had been bare for weeks and they were starting to chafe and bleed.
You wouldn't admit it, but part of you did lose a little hope. You feared the first snowfall of the year. It was almost comical to you how your last worry at the moment was frostbite.
You took a deep breath, enjoying the taste of the Tilapia. You wrapped your heavy scarf over your shoulders.
"I know, I'm just tired. I wish I had more strength, I wish we had more strength. There's two of us and thousands of them, Will."
It was the first sign of doubt you had shown in months, and it surprised Will slightly.
"I know, but we can do it. I know we can." he licked his fingers clean and then laid down on the wet and cold grass, his hands behind his head.
Could you do it? You weren't sure anymore. You knew you wanted to kill Hydra and you wanted to overtake The Capitol. But were you two really capable of doing that? Have you two been delusional this entire time?
"Its been three years. Three years." You said softly. Exhausted.
"True, but we're young. And we're smart. We have an advantage they don't. That." He bent one of his legs and stared up at the scars, a small smile tainting his lips, "We could always call The Avengers."
You scoffed, running your hands through your hair as you threw the bare spine into the fire. You were a bit sad you finished it, your tummy still turning in hunger.
"What Avengers? Hydra destroyed their home, everything. They tried to fight and they lost. Worst than when Thanos beat them. And to make matters worse, this is a virus, it's not something they can necessarily control. They've become overpowered, even the damn Avengers are overpowered now by Hydra. This is like a horror movie that will never end. It's time we face the facts."
Will smirked.
"I don't know if I buy it. You mean to tell me even Bruce fucking Banner couldn't break that damn wall?"
You gave him a glare.
"I don't think the goal here is to break The Wall. If anything that would ruin the purpose, don't you think?" you picked up a small and harmless rock and threw it at his chest, making him cringe, "dipshit."
Will continued to stare up at the stars. The night was midnight black, and now since there was no longer any electricity, you could even see the milky-way.
"I don't see this ending badly."
You wish you had his good heart and good soul. You furrow your brows at him.
