Doing anything rash was not wise. I wanted to start setting up for when we would have to sleep. We looked around for a spot to set up camp. Kayden sighed loudly and said "All the corners are taken already." "That really sucks balls." Jayden added. "It is not always good to take the corner." "Don't you want to make sure you are protected from attacks on the sides?" Tobey asked. I addressed him and said. "Yeah, that is a strategy. But they all have a counter strategy." I then looked at Jayden. "Do you know the difference between a prison and a sanctuary?" I asked. He furrowed his brow as he tried to think. Eventually he had to give up. "Tell me." he said. "They are actually very similar in execution. They are both big structures that are made to be secure and hard to be breached. A prison is made is made to keep all of the scary, dangerous people locked inside." I turned to Kayden. "A sanctuary is made to keep the scary, dangerous people locked outside." I told him. "I see..." Tobey said. "What is it?" Kayden asked. "You're protected from attacks, but there's nowhere to run!" he said.
Pointing at the nearest corner I said "You see all the others coming and you can defend your position knowing there are no chances of being ambushed from the side or from behind. Turning it around, if you are weaker, you only have a single escape route. Straight ahead. Where the enemy is coming from." I explained. The twins blinked as it sunk in. "So where should we sleep? We'll be too exposed if we sleep out in the middle." Tobey asked. I just nodded. I looked at them. "We should be on a wall. It's a middle ground. That blocks off a chance to surround us and we can flee in multiple directions if we needed." I told them. We chose a section of the wall closest to the giant metal door that was sealed tight. This was probably the door leading to the cafeteria. "Y-you can't do that!" someone yelled. It was one of the young boys in Henry's group. He was feeling up one of the girly boys' butt in front of all of us in the auditorium. The husky guy said "Why not! I'm doing it." The kid said "That's my brother. You can't." Henry looked at the husky guy and asked "A-are you sure this is a good thing to do?"
Since this was a death game, there was nothing to be gained from interfering unless you were trying to take the guy for yourself. Otherwise, why risk it for a stranger? At this point, it was clear no one was going to step in this time. The boy being groped tried to calm down his brother. "I-it's alright Pete. The only thing that matters is that we're together and safe." he said. The husky guy never stopped squeezing and kneading the flesh of his ass for a moment. " Bu-but Mike!" Pete tried to say. "I said that it's... alright!" Mike hesitated. It was clear that he was lying to himself. Pete's eyes glowed yellow. "I'm not going to let some freak touch you like that!" he snapped. He then turned to the husky guy. "Let. Him Go. Freddy!" he demanded. Freddy's eyes were glowing green again. "Take your best shot, you little shit. You'll only get one." He had stopped groping Mike and stood with a very open stance to egg him on. Pete took about ten steps back. "You asked for it, you assface!" he said before moving with lightning-fast speed. He was a total blur as he delivered a right hook to Freddy's nuts.
