I stayed silent and let go of his hand. "Come on then!" I hissed, speed walking back to my house.

Rye walked back at his normal pace.

I opened the door and waited for Rye.

Rye walked into the house.

I walked in, closed the door, and welded it shut.

"No need to fortress the joint." Rye said.

I walked up to Rye and dragged him into the bedroom, where there was no camera. I grabbed his clothing and shook it, causing the bomb materials to fall out. "Care to explain?"

"Yeah, just because I almost got caught doesn't mean I'm stopping." Rye said

I slapped Rye and picked up all the materials.

Rye grabbed the materials. "I'm not living under Pechio's prophecy."

I grabbed them back. "You don't get it! Those things out there will kill you! They killed my brother! My mother! My mom's boyfriend who totally sucked! And My baby bro! It's not worth it!" I started off yelling but I finished the sentence crying.

"I know what's out there." Rye said. "But all it takes is one dissenter and Pechio will have Abbies flood this town, just like the last, it's a cycle that won't end."

"Still... I hate it too but you're better off just living like this... I miss my actual home, but this is the only thing I have now... You can survive... I'm the weakest person here and I survived... You can too." I said, wiping the tears off my face.

"I Don't Want To Just survive!" Rye shouted. "I want to live without having to follow every rule he decides we should have."

"......." I sighed and destroyed the materials.
