Chapter 18
As she made her way over, she spotted Eva in the cafeteria and went towards her.
"Hey" Eva turned towards her and returned the greeting.
They sat down together and talked about each others life. Hannah also mentioned that she was making things to help them when they had to leave later on.
"I'm learning a ton with other doctors. I think I can call myself a certified doctor" Eva said smugly
Hannah just laughed and their conversation went on.
Once done, they both went their separate ways and Hannah met back up with Christine who smiled at her as she entered the house
Too tired to do anything else, Hannah went to bed and fell fast asleep, having to wake up really early tommorow.

"Morning everyone, it is time for us to go on with our daily duties but before that......please help yourselves to breakfast" Jonah gestured towards the table filled with foods.
Hannah's mouth watered at the sight of all the foods while Judas just laughed beside her. They all sat down and enjoyed a peaceful morning with each other until...
Laughter can be heard from outside. Sounds of things hitting the front door was heard as well but no one from the table got up to investigate as if it wasn't the first time this happened.
Hannah turned to look at Judas but even he was confused when no one moved an inch.
"What's going on outside?" Hannah uttered acting completely shocked as if she hadn't noticed the lack of attention people were paying towards the ruckus.
They all looked at each other then towards Jonah which made him sigh.
"I suppose it's about time we tell you" Jonah sighs.
"As you know we arent really on best terms with the others.....which potentially also means that were treated badly" Jonah ended.
The table were quiet, all of them were subtly looking at Jonah and Hannah as well as Judas to see what their reactions would be.
"Couldnt we just retaliate and....I dont know destroy their clothes off?" Hannah suggested which Judas agreed with.
Christine's mouth hang open then she began to consider it but Jonah voiced out saying it wouldn't be benificial to us as they would stir more trouble.
Hannah and Judas sat back down not wanting to cause them any problem and continued eating.
However, something managed to break in through the window and it hit Judas right in the face, causing him to bleed from him nose.
Someone had thrown a shoe in and by the looks on the others face, it was clear that this was the first time someone had gotten hurt before.
"Damn it! Hit right at the nose too" Judas tried laughing it off.
Hannah left the table and grabbed her bat from her room going right out the front door.
She saw a few teenagers and adults throwing things at thheir house. It was completely covered in clothes and all kinds of stuff.
Another shoe came flying right at her this time which she hit with her bat however it stuck to the bat as it was laced with wires.
Hannah started shouting at them with her bat, ready to swing at them causing them to run away.
Some actually tested her to see of she would actually hit them with it as it could cause a fatal injury.
Despite being angry at them, she did not hit any of them but may have thrown a shoe or two back at them. Judas came out a few seconds later and threw the shoe that had hit him right back at one of them.
Knowing that Hannah and Judas were really serious on hurting them, they ran back to wherever they came from.
Jonah and the rest of the group just stood in the porch witnessing everything that had gone down. He had wanted to stop them but knew that it was what the other runners deserve however he knew it wasn't going to end well and he didn't want to lose his new family.
"Come on in now, the food is getting cold" Jonah said as he went back in and sat on the table.
Soon after, everyone was back on the table talking about how cool and amazing Hannah and Judas were even Jonah couldn't resist having a laugh here and there.
"....I know that you had to do what you had to do but....I sure hope you're ready to face whatever happens next" He said as he felt even more anxious.
"I'm sure we'll be fine"

They were indeed not fine. Caleb was disappoimted to hear the complaints comong in from the other runners and called for Jonah to come to his office.
"Call them in here for goodness sakes!" Caleb ordered to his guard
"They said they can't make it here sir"
"And why not?" Caleb replied getting angry.
"They are treating one of their runners and Jonah is the one that is treating them"
"Someone got hurt?" Caleb asked confused, perhaps the other runners may have retaliated?
Either ways he left his office and head straight to their base of operations.

"Bloody hell, what in the world happened here?" Caleb looked at the house in front of him that was covered in clothes and all kinds of different stuff.
It was Hannah's idea to keep the clothes and everything there while Judas thought of a way to get Caleb here. They were kind of against the idea of calling Caleb here as it would seem disrespectful to him.
Caleb made his way to the door and turned the knob open. He made his way through the broken glass, being careful as to not step on them.
"Caleb, youre here. I'm really sorry for calling you over when you're so busy" Jonah apologized.
Caleb waved him off and went to check on the injured. He saw how Judas laid in his head with bandages on his head and sighed internally.
He knew he had to put the other groups in their place otherwise a huge fight may occur between them in the future.

Caleb held a meeting regarding the harassment the 5th group of runners had to face and ordered that they all treat each other equally.
He also included that because the 5th group have been inactive in going out and getting reaources for a long time, they had to prove themselves that they were up for it.
The 5th group were happy to be able to get back to their old duties once again and celebrated that day.

"It was quite the shocker when he announced that we are back onboard" Jonah joked, laughing as he drank his drink.
They were all happy and brought out their old gear once again that they had used before.
"As much as we should celebrate, we have to prepare for tommorow. I have a feeling the others may not let us go that easily" Jonah voiced out and everyone dispersed.
The other groups were bery upset with Caleb's decision and there's no telling what they would do once their outside of the safe zone.
Christine had passed on a few old gears to both Hannah and Judas for when they head out. Despite not being used for a very long time, it's condition remains at it's peak.
Everyone were adjusting their equipments to fit them and some were just sharpening their weapons.
They all ended their day before midnight and woke up nice and early the next day, not wanting to arrive late on the first day back.
Only a few from group 5 were heading outside the safe zone while the rest manage the house and the things that need to be done.Download Novelah App
