Legion Of The Black: Reviving The Hope

Never give in, never back down. That was what my grandma said the Wild Ones lived by. That is, until they disappeared. No one knows where they went, what happened to them, or anything. All we know is they are gone and have been for the past five hundred years. In those years, Fear has grown to rule all but the junkers like me. Yes, there are Rebels but there's so few, we call them the "Leftovers" because they have no one to control, to guide them. It's rumored that Eve Black, the best friend of the Wild Ones, is in my family but i don't think she is. Grandma doesn't know if she is either. When i was sixteen, grandma died. Now i'm twenty one and i am the biggest junker there is. I am currently in LA, or what's left, looking for the legendary Eve Black room. It's said a map to the Wild Ones is there. People believe that her room is in San Francisco, the place she loved so much, but i believe it's in LA where the Wild Ones lived before the wars and Fear.

I walked through the ruble and saw a glass room with a flag over the door then made my way over to it. I went in and saw notebooks, an old bed, a shattered mirror, and dirt and dust everywhere. I grabbed a notebook that was black with the Rebel star and opened it to see a map with five points on it. Each one had a folded piece of paper next to it and i opened the first one to see a sketched photo of the Destroyer. A map to the Wild Ones! Just like the rumors said! I took the notebook and grabbed as many as i could fit in my pack then raced out and ran back to my house. I packed more food and clothes then heard Fear hounds and felt my blood run cold as i raced out of LA.

"GET THAT JUNKER!" I kept running then heard the hounds behind me but i made it to the LA highway that went west and ran faster than i ever had before. I eventually lost the hounds then pulled the map out and looked at the first point.

"The Destroyer, Cc. What happened to you guys?" I whispered then looked where the map was telling me and put it back then got some water and began my journey to the first Wild One.

~3 Weeks~
I got to the Rebel camp and traded for water and food then left the camp and looked at my map again.

"About, five miles that way."

"Which way?" I jumped and turned to see some guy then hid the map and looked at him.

"That way? That's nothing but a run down shopping center."

"Thanks." I turned and started to walk that way then he caught up to me.

"What do you want? Who are you?"

"I'm Zeke. And you?"

"A junker. For Fear." He stopped in his tracks and ran back to his camp then i rolled my eyes as i kept walking. I heard people running after me then ran and soon reached the shopping center and hid as the Rebels looked for me.

"She's a junker for Fear!"

"Find her!" They soon gave up and i knew they'd move to somewhere new but i wasn't worried about that. I was trying to find the treasures of the Wild Ones. Their treasures are the things they're never seen without. The Destroyer, his bandanna. The Mystic, his leather jacket. The Deviant, his star necklace. The Mourner, his belt bandanna. The Prophet, his cross earring. If i find those, i'm set for life. I walked around the center then found a music store and went in. Something was telling me he'd be here. Or his treasure. I went to the back room and froze at what i saw. The Destroyer, as if he just laid down. He hadn't aged a single bit. I went over and touched his shoulder but he was warm, like he was still alive!

"Hey, you alive?" I touched him again then again but nothing. That's when i noticed his treasure was gone. Someone had taken his bandanna.

"Find it." I heard a voice then jumped back and looked at him.

"Wh-what?" Then a hologram like version of him was there with his bandanna.

"Find it and save me. Eve hid it. In this room." Then he was gone. I went to leave but stopped in the doorway and turned around to look at him and something told me to find his treasure, and it wasn't him this time. I looked around the room then found a dusty old bandanna but blew on it and like magic, it was clean again. Perfectly! I went over and thought about what to do then put it on his head and his eyes fluttered as color returned to his face.

"Oh my god..." I fell back and he slowly sat up then saw me and smiled.

"Thank you."

"Y-you're not...... How are you..... You've been....."

"How long has it been since we were lost?"

"F-five hundred years." He helped me up then i stared at him in shock.

"How are you alive?"

"Eve had a witch put a sleeping spell on us when we....." He looked down and was confused but shook his head.

"Are you okay?"

"I can't remember what happened to us."

"It's okay, um, here. If you want to find the others, here."

"Wait, i need your help." I looked at him and he held my wrist.

"Please, i can't find them without you." I looked at his eyes and he was really desperate.

"How would we find them?"

"How did you find me?" I looked in my bag then got the map and he looked at it.

"Eve, you smart little bitch." I laughed and looked at him as he stared.

"You have her laugh. And her eyes."

"Meaning what?"

"Are you related to her in anyway?"

"Maybe, i might be. We aren't sure though."

"Then help me find the others." I agreed then our journey to the next Wild One began. Oh, what have i started now?
