The speakers boomed as President John Edward VI gave an unforeseen warning, "Excuse me UR citizens. This is an emergency. All citizens are to leave current positions and go to their residence. All families within UR Territory will be given a supply pack each month to sustain members in a household. Population counting will begin at the 43rd day of each month at the capital district of each Province. As soon as UR military gets ahold of the situation, UR citizens are to remove and turn off all Heledroids for their own safety and protection of their households,” There was a disturbing silence before Mrs. Quonash spoke. She then ushered us out of the classroom and let us into a dark room. She opened a door and told us to all go in. My feet touched a damp wet soil and the air felt cool and humid. Mrs. Quonash spoke softly and calmly through the weeping children,"Come along now, don't be afraid. Hush hush." The Headmaster spoke and everyone stopped. "Children, this is not a drill. We don't exactly know what is going on but this is what we have been instructed to do. Children, you shall split up into groups by your street number, and a preceptor shall escort you to your streets. 42! Go over by Mr. Mateb." Children shuffled to a corner with one of the preceptors as the Headmaster called out more numbers. "54! You go by Mrs. Quonash". No, Natasha is on 54. She glimpsed at me through the cloud of people. I tried waving, but before I could, she was gone. "73! You're by Mr. Larti" Something was familiar about 73... "Ella!" What was so familiar? "ELLA!" The Headmaster was shouting my name. "Huh? What?" Unaware that the Headmaster had been shouting my name for the last 30 seconds. "You are on 73, correct?" That would make sense. "Yes sir." I walked over and was escorted into a dark tunnel with 20 other kids following along.
