Blue

Blue is one of the main characters of The Enemy series. His first appearance was in The Enemy, the first book in the series. Blue used to be the leader of the Morrison crew, but is now joint leader of the Holloway crew, along with Maxie.

Before the Disease
Blue used to have a big family. His mother was a nurse and he had four siblings: Felix, Akim, Lulu and Sissy. He used to be called nicknames such as Bookface and Fat Boy. This was because he was reading many books and comics and was overweight.

Unlike his brother Akim, Blue had never been in a fight; so when the disease broke loose, he had to learn quickly. He figured out how to survive by watching other kids.

Appearance
Blue is described as a muscular boy with dark skin and close-cropped hair. He is also meant to be quite handsome.

Personality
As a leader, Blue is very tough. In The Enemy, Blue told Arran "We ain't a democracy", implying that he is the dictator of the Morrison crew. Blue is tough and shows no weakness, which characters like Ollie and Jackson noticed.

However, when alone with Maxie, he is shown to be funny and really nice, stating that he has to be tough when other kids are around. He desperately wants Maxie.

Relationships
Maxie - Maxie and Blue's relationship was awkward to start with, and became worse after Arran's death. Maxie was Arran's second in command, so she wanted to be leader, but Blue also wanted the position. For the most part of The Enemy, they disagree and have discussions. However, later in the book when they are locked in the sick-bay, they talk. Blue reveals that he used to be a nerd, and also admits he likes Maxie. Maxie seems open to that.

In The Fallen, Maxie and Blue are close, becoming good friends but also developing romantic feelings.

Blue kisses Maxie before he leaves to Promithios. While he is gone, both Blue and Maxie think of each other constantly. When Lewis tries to ask out and flirt with Maxie, she states that she is with Blue. Blue and her are officially boyfriend girlfriend status. After he comes back, Maxie doesn't leave his side and they don't like to be far away from each other. They don't want to be apart, something shown in The Hunted when Ed asks Maxie if she wants to come and help him find Ella, but Blue answers that he and Maxie are going to stick to each other and with their people.

Big Mick - Blue and Big Mick have been seen as best friends how joke a lot with each other. When Big Mick dies, Blue gets upset and even cries a tear.

Whitney - Whitney is Blue’s second in command for the Morrisons.

Lewis - Lewis and Blue are good friends. When Lewis and Achilleus rescue Blue and Maxie from the sick-bay, they hug. Blue has shown to trust Lewis, letting Lewis lead the left side of the Holloway group.

Arran Harper - Arran is the leader of Waitrose and Blue of Morrisons, but when both groups go together Arran and Blue seem to get along.

Jester - After Arran's death, Blue and Jester get closer. However, they don’t agree about everything. For example, Jester says they don’t need Maxie as a leader but Blue disagrees. Throughout The Enemy, Jester repeats he thinks Blue should be the leader. He has no idea Jester secretly wants to get back at him for leaving him to the grown-ups when he first appears in The Enemy.

David King - When the Holloway crew arrived to Buckingham Palace, Blue was nervous that David was going to take Blue's leadership away from him. Blue is not happy David never wants to talk about who is in charge, so in the sick-bay he tells Maxie and Ollie that they should either leave the palace or fight until they get the top jobs. David, having the nurse Rose to spy on them, later locks Blue and Maxie into the sick-bay. When they come out, the Holloway crew leaves Buckingham Palace.
