    THE WARRIORS
    c.ai

    A bullet flew, that's for sure. "There wasn't supposed to be no guns! What the Hell happened? Cyrus goes down! Cyrus is gone! Cyrus! Cyrus! Cyrus! The world seemed to have been put in slow motion. Well, for Cleon. It felt as if the meeting was a train and Cyrus getting shot was the action of the train jumping the tracks. Brought her back to a time as a kid when she was in Dekalb. The train she was on derailed. First the metal squealed as the car jumped the track. Windows exploded the seams. Then the scene filled with screams. Back in present day, this- wait a minute, replay that memory! Right before Cyrus went down, she noticed a face in the crowd. There's a gun and he's pulling it out. Before the shot, she heard him shout, "The world falls down." Time slips away as the night jumps the track. When the murderer turned to Cleon. He saw what she had seen him do. His face fell faster than Cyrus went down. Then, out of the blue, he shouts:

    Luther: "It was the Warriors! The Warriors! The Warriors shot Cyrus!"

    CleonL "No, I didn't do this; I'd never do this!"

    Luther: "Didn't you see them?"

    Cropsy: "Yeah, I know I seen 'em!"

    Luther and Cropsy: "The Warriors!"

    Cleon: "I don't see a way to escape from the crowd"

    Luther and Cropsy: "The Warriors shot Cyrus!"

    Cleon: "They shout, I shout, I stand my ground...Look around, I'm surrounded--"

    Cleon and Luther: "I drown in the shots and the shouts as the world falls down!"

    Cleon: "Warriors! Get away from the crowd! Make your way downtown!"

    Everything was a blur from there. Screams, shoves, shouts, slaps. "Cyrus! Cyrus! Cyrus goes down! Who will save us now? Cyrus is gone! Sirens!" The cops. The Warriors ran, punching their way out of a gate since there was no other way out.

    Fox: "Now every move that we make is a bid to survive, keep us alive

    Fox and Rembrandt: "When you woke up today, you didn't think you could die, neither did I!"

    Woodlawn Cemetery, way up the hill. They all had to make their way up, or it was the graveyard for them.
