[shadow=yellow,left,300][glow=yellow,2,300]Secret Meetings[/glow][/shadow]
Secret meetings happen in District 4 by a group of secretive people, aging from 11-79. Each one has a special skill or job, whether it's distracting, lying to nosy peacekeepers, spreading messages, or planning the next move, they are like family. Well, technically, most of them ARE family. They plan small uprisings, like freeing fish, rescuing friends from prison, or stealing from peacekeepers. They've even managed to break into the justice building, once. They tell each other constantly they are building up for the big thing, and even though they are the main group, they have many followers. They are people who are always there to do what they are asked for "the cause."
THE MEETING BUIDING
The meeting building is a small, one-story house they plan everything in. Well, it’s actually the home of the Pickett family, but they use a torn-up basement for the planning. The basement includes two sofas, two rocking chairs, a scratchy rug, a big table, and a safe. Most of the time spent planning is down there.
Main Characters:
Taken by Sarella/grapescassie1 Mona Pickett – Female – Age 11 – Mona Pickett is a sweet, charming young girl able to pry into the lives of just about anyone. Her job is to trick nosy peacekeepers, leading them to the wrong place. Although, whenever it seems she is about to get hurt, she runs as fast as she can back to the meeting building. She is terrified of getting hurt. Mona’s family has little food, so she refuses to share whatever she gets, she also gets a fiery temper when provoked. The sole person that can calm her down is Felicity. Mona likes clean places, so she is constantly cleaning up around the house.
Taken by Gavin/Gav123 Alexander Leister – Male – Age 12 – Alexander Leister is a secretive, sly young boy. He sometimes works with Mona, when a huge deceiving job is needed. He is a top-of-the-notch liar, and can easily work his way into people. The only person he believes he can’t lie to Mona, and she doesn’t even know it. He likes her, but she shows no emotion whatsoever when he is around. When not admiring Mona’s light brown hair, he is working away with the leaders of the group, assembling a plan. He, like Mona, has a fiery temper that will rage out at any time. He shares his food, but doesn’t give it all away. Unlike the girl he likes, his temper cannot be calmed. He’ll break things, and many times have the adult had to pin him to the sofa, or lock him in a closet to bang his head until he calms down. Alexander hates being called Alex. He is an orphan, taken up by the group.
William Ryans - Male - Age 11 - William, or Willie, is another hormone-crazy boy, driven insane by Mona. Since she's the closest girl to his age, she's the only one he can press on. Again, she takes absolutely no notice of this. William is calm and sincere, he doesn't joke and be rude like Alexander. Although, he does like competing with him, and often calls him "Alex." Willie's job is to find food and bring it to the house. He's a scavenger, and a mighty-good one to. He and Edward (Edward has the spare) keep the keys to the food. William is smart, and can tell a lie from a distance.
Reserved for tribute:)Jennifer “Jenny” Walabeeh – Female – Age 13 – Jennifer more often goes with the name “Jenny,” as she sees it fits her more. Jenny’s job is to keep watch, as her eyesight is keener than any of the others. She is a wonderful hider, as she thinks of the perfect places. Jenny is extremely flexible, and can twist her way into anything. Jenny understands Alexander in a small way, she was an orphan to, except she was a bit more self-reliant. Jenny’s main goal in life is to anger the capitol. Jenny is a rude one though, and doesn’t use her manners when they are expected.
Barney Truste – Male – Age 16 – Barney is a fighter. Not with words, but by brutal strength. Whenever a peacekeeper, or worse, gets within a half mile of the hiding area, he attacks. He’s usually outside, keeping watch with Jenny. He sleeps outside every night, just waiting for a peacekeeper to fight. While Jenny is a daylight watcher, he keeps traps open all around him during his watch hours. At first the adults didn’t want him outside alone, so his dad is always awake at night in case he doesn’t wake up. Barney always has a knife on him, but hardly ever uses it. It’s only for emergencies in his mind. He’s very good with it. Barney is Ginger’s boyfriend, and they like to smooch the day away, which bothers Grettel enormously.

She makes sure Mona doesn’t chicken out, Alexander stays focused and calm, Jenny doesn’t hurt herself, Barney doesn’t fight his brains out, and Ginger stays on task. She usually has her hands full, especially around Alexander. She’s the one who locks the closet, while the other grown-ups shove him in. Grettel has a flute she plays, and Mona just loves listening to it. Grettel doesn’t have a close bond with Mona, but she tries her hardest to stay ahead of Felicity. Grettel acts as though she has no personality, and is just a robot around to help out.
