Casting Shadows ch 6

Three weeks later.

Jonny sat at his computer, watching the screen absently. His father had explained who the other girl was, and their predicament, but he still couldn't understand it. To take your own life . . . .

NL: JQ? You still there?

JQ: Yeah, I'm here. Sorry, just thinking.

NL: Yeah well, I have to go, my mom's calling. Later.

Jonny sat there, blankly staring at the screen. It was wrong. January had been his age, she shouldn't be dead, it just wasn't right. There wasn't even any body to bury, it had been incinerated in the blast. He felt empty, hollow. It wasn't fair! She was young, and smart, and had her whole life ahead of her. It was like if Jessie or Hadji had been killed.

He glanced up as a name flickered on the screen, thinking he should really get out of the chat room before someone else wanted to talk. He wasn't in the mood. Then JF's message caught his attention.

JF: Hey, Jonny! Is Bandit still running off with your clothes?

The Beginning.
