What the sirens had signalled was a major change in what the people living in the orphanage would be doing for a while. Sophie seen it as her duty to along with the gang look after the younger ones. Right now she had the jungle girl as a next door neighbour and Kimberly was sticking to her like glue. She was a pretty but needy girl trying to get used to a place she wouldn’t be chased any longer.
There was no point in trying to go elsewhere unless they were told too officially. What she could do was raise people’s spirits and that meant baking. The baking process would kill any infection left after the food washing. Radiation she could do nothing about but she’d no way of even knowing it was there. A few large apple pies seemed like the best option as she worked in the kitchen.
open (most likely the gang, staff and other interested parties)

This was insane she thought as she looked over the sky but kept herself locked in the orphanage walking around. People were going crazy probably thinking that they were going to do without food and things of that nature and that was when she spotted Sophie. "Sophie, baking again are you? Where are your friends?" Sophie Chang

Sophie had lived here long enough to know about the cooks who started at 3am and were occasionally seen after breakfast. That meant food supplies were enough for any residents living there and deliveries came all the time. So she had no fear of them running out of food as worked the pastry with practised skill into the next stage. “Hello Gigi. I haven’t seen many of them around but perhaps they are off doing their own things. Are we going to be alright for food deliveries?” She replied. She posed in the question in case her own deductions were wrong and Gigi would know if there would be future problems ahead. Gigi Richards

"Hello Sarah," she said before turning her attention back to Sophie. "We are doing okay but if they are not here they must be outside?" she said. "I will give them an hour to show up if they are not, I have to go out and find them. Until then I am going to make strawberry scones." Sophie ChangSarah Owens

It seemed every time that he had planned to step out and do something an event of catastrophic happened. He had hidden into the orphanage as soon as he could, and he did not plan on going out until things cleared.

Sarah had joined them as she was finishing kneeding the dough and would let it rest before rolling it out. Hearing what Gigi had to say did put her mind at rest so before too long everybody should be back and safe. “Hi Sarah” she replied with a wave. “I seen Eric briefly here so he must still be around” she mused. She did wonder about the others and she’d seen Jack leave earlier to get things they needed. “I seen Jack leave earlier as well” she added sounding worried. Then turned to Sarah. “Do you want to help make apple pies?”. At least in the kitchen they could do something useful and have enough baking for the next day as well.

"Pies sound like a good idea," she said. "I know a little about flour but that is it so if you just give me some basics I am sure that we can get all caught up and it be no problem." Gigi RichardsSophie ChangEric Reed

He had finally came into his looks and he was getting used to them but at the moment he still felt like he was doing well. "Want my help to and I can go out after I help with a few and look for Jack if you want." Sophie Chang

So today would be a cooking lesson and with Sarah’s input to the process they could make more. They also needed apples sliced up and these eating apples still needed peeled. Then Eric popped into the kitchen offering to help. Gigi could also do with help so Sophie suggested “why don’t you help Gigi with the scones?” Then turning to Sarah she said “I can show you how to bake your own apple pies but smaller ones would quite well as a learning experience. You’re right about it starting with flour but you need to make the dough first”. Then she replied to Gigi adding “I am worried about about Jack. The safest place is here but I wonder who else is out right now”. Jack P. J.Gigi RichardsSarah Owens

He had stepped out and was looking for his sister as she had disappeared again but he also knew that she was her own person so he made his way back towards the orphanage.

She nodded because she did want Sophie to feel okay but not seeing a friend in a time like this did do something to the body and mind but even she was not sure what that was. Hopefully all would work out for all involved. Sophie ChangEric ReedJack P. J.Gigi Richards

Sophie hoped for the best as she was about to teach Sarah how to make dough. This was as much to teach as it was to keep her mind on positive things. “Sarah let’s learn something. You do start with flour but you need water, fats and an egg. The mixer makes it easier but you can do with your hands” she said. “I’ll try not too Gigi” she added quietly but she did suggest making saucer sized pies to Sarah. Baking took her mind of things and it came the people living here nice things to look forward too. So while Sarah worked on the dough she finely cut the washed apples. You could leave the skin on the fine slices as she’d put them in boiling water to naturally remove them before the pies were closed up. Sarah OwensGigi RichardsEric ReedJack P. J.

He could understand the cause for worry. "Look I will go out and look for him if I am not back within the hour with Jack you guys can come out and look for me okay? I will grab some bread to take out with me to keep myself from starving to death." Gigi RichardsSarah OwensSophie ChangJack P. J.
