• 1. Kate

    A rock flew though my window with a note attached it read,

    -Kate-

    I am coming for you i havn't forgot!

    -Derek-

    I ran to my room and slammed the door breathing heavily. I sat down at my desk and got out some paper,

    -Derek-

    why the heck are you doing this? I don't understand!

    -Kate-

    Derek is a guy I turned down because i didn't like the way he treated people. He only wants to get what he cant have so I told him no and walked off.

    2. Kate

    I had just moved to the shores of some island off the coast of Florida you can't even see Florida at all. I was pissed off about the move my mother and sister had died I lived with only my brother and father. At the new house my brother and I got a bedroom on the second floor. Dad got the couch downstairs well he had a room downstairs but he liked the couch better. I had just been walking to the corner store when some boys walked up beside me whiseling and acting all stupid trying to get my attention I just ignored them I am 15 and could care less about these bunch of idiots but since I wouldn't acnowlege tem they got in front of me blocking my path so i couldn't go forward I tried to walk around them but they just shifted and blocked my way again. By now I was ticked off "Get out of my way" I said to them rather rudely! "Oh now she acnowleges we exist" said the tallest boy which must have been the leader because the other boys listened to his every command. "My names Derek whats yours sweet thing?" said th tall boy. "Well its deffinately not 'sweet thing' it's Kate now kindly I ask or rather tell you to get out of my way" I said. Derek put his hands on my shoulder and said "now now come on don't act that way" "Don't touch me" I said jerking away this made the boy mad he grabbed my arm so tightly i wanted to yelp but i knew i had to think rationally i had been taking defense classes since i was six so i knew what to do i turned my arm around so it twited his wrist and then when he let go i turned and hightailed it home as fast as my legs would carry me with the boys on my heels every step of the way i got inot my house and slammed the door and locked it i looked out the curain the boys were still there but they must have heard something because they ran off so mayb it wasn't as simple as i first implied but nothing ever is. Not soon after the boys left my dad and my brother drove up the drive way as soon as they walked in i walked over to my brother Tom he is 18 i asked if i could talk to him privately hi is like my best friend "sure" he said and we walked up to his room and closed the door "now whats the matter?" Tom asked so i told Tom the whole story and he listened quietly "well i don't know what i can do about it tonight but i am driving you where ever you go from now on" Tom said i hugged him "thank you oh and i still have to get the groceries" i said looking up Tom was about 6"2' skinny but muscular i am 5"2' and skinny so he towered over me. Tom hugged me back "I'll take you to the store" Tom said i smiled "we better hurry or dad migh get upset if his dinner is to late" i laughed Tom just smiled and grabbed his car keys.



    Reno

    Me and my two brothers, Chris and Vega, stood lingering at a gate in a small airport in Colorado. At this point the three of us were about as pissed as a person can get. Thirty six hours eairlier we were all called together by our adopted parents. I was the last one to show up because i was out wandering aimlessly as i normally do. I took a seat and looked across the table, the faces that I saw were grim looking, I knew it wasn't going to be good at all, The five of us sat quiet as the ever monotonous washer machine worked. My adopted mother finally took in a long breath and stared at us. My adopted parents exchanged a look to eachother. I wasn't even home for a few minutes and i already lost perception of time. My adopted mother spoke in lonely words "Bad news, apparently there has been a direct relative that has stepped up and claimed custody." My head turned to Chris who was stareing back. "and?" He said in a strange tone that i havn't heard before. A sigh came from my adopted father an continued "in three days you'll be leaving for some island in florida,we don't really know who this relstive is" his voice was begining to quiver. I didn't know what to feel, should i be happy, sad, angry, I just didnt know. Bega angrily pushed himself away from the table muttering cuses. Chris calmly pushed away and said to us "I'll calm him down" and walked after Vega. I sat there my hands burried in my chin "whats the matter Reno?" my adopted mother asked. My head came up and looked her in the eyes. "I...I...I dont really know Erin" she got up and came over resting her hand on my shoulder. " Go think about it it's going to be anothe long road for you three." Franz my adopted father said to me " Yeah...I will" Walking up the beige carpeted stairs and in the room i occupied i sat down on my bed hunched over slightly. The three of us had the convience of having our own rooms, in fact this family had the best turn out for us. We had lived with them for eight months and things were actually turning out good for us. Chris had plans to enlist in the military, Vega was having better outlook on things, and myself i wasn't 'ending' fights as often as i normally would. Chris and me are direct brothers, things were fine until mom died for reasons we don't know of. While we both waited to be adopted for the first time we ran into Vega who was nine at the time getting beaten by a few other orphans and that's when me and Chris jumped in. We got into a hefty amount of trouble then but it didn't matter to us after the day we took Vega under our wing. That was four years and, Chris is now 18, myself 15,and Vega 13, I was mesmerized in my thoughts that i didn't notice Chris slip in. "hey bro" he said snatching my attention "hey man" i replied back straightening myself "what ya think of the fine mess we're in" Chris asked. " to tell the truth i don't now what to think of" Chris sighed and looked down and then looked back up " i cant possibly think of what relative is still alive" "it better not be dad cuz I'm gonna give that p***k a hell of a ******** welcome" i snapped angrily clenching my fists "i asked Erin and Franz they said Vega is coming with us" i gave a small smile to him " that's some good news...though i am tired of being herded like cattle" " i hear ya" Chris said and opened the door "i'm gonna see if i cant get anymore information out of this mess" those wer his last words for the day. I sat back down on the bed back hunched over m fore arms resting on my knees thinking. All of this thoughts were mashed together making it imposible to sort out my feelings. As i pondered I was hit with a wave of anger. Everything we had fought for the past four years was being stripped away. The happiness that we finally regained now taken by the day because a more direct relative had finally stepped up. No that i wasn't going to take lightly. I swore to myself that the a*****e who did this was going to have a hell of a time even if it wasn't my father. Finally laying down and closing my eyes i had a few moments of clarity so i could sleep. The next day i woke at 11:00 AM later than usual, my legs swung off the bed and onto the floor. The rest of my body followed and now i sat up right stareing at the door. A small green duffle bag was placed near the closet on the far left side of the room. Takeing a deep breath and releasing a long sigh i stood up and shuffled over to the bag, picked it up, ans started packing. As i rummeged through things packing my hands came accross something cold. Naturally i picked it up and broughtt it eye level. It was recongnized imediately, a smal silver wolf head with two torquoise gems for its eyes and attached to a thin metal chain. Vega had given me and chris one though his was a bear. Vega himself had one too he had given them to us after we met. He said it was something both his parents had i unclipped the chain slid it around my neck and linked it back together. I finished packing twenty minutes later and went downstairs for something to eat.

    Kate

    Well dad went out then next day to get job adn Tom and i went to the local school to get school books because Tome was going to home school me so i was happy i didn't have to go to any public school. At dinner that night i told dad i liked home schooling with Tom dad was proud he was against public schooling. Dad alson had an announcement " I got a job at the hardware store just up the road" Tom and I both smiled and congradulated him we were proud of his accomplishment. Dad smiled and thanked us both. A couple days passed by to a wwk and dad usually came home late about 10:00 PM or so and we just left his dinner in the microwave or sometimes we would bring it to him at work. I got all A's in school so dad and Tom were happy i was to until about another week passed an i got the note from Derek i had forgotten about him till now. I was scared.

    Kate

    After withing my note i just crumpled it up and threw it away i knew there was no way to get the letter to Derek safely anyway. I looked out my window there by the front gate stood Derek he looked up and our eyes met i hurredly closed th curtain and sat on my bed with teh note at my feet i had ben sitting there a long time it seemed with no intention of moving then Toms voice rang loud and clear "Kate?" Tom yelled "In my room" I replied a few minutes later Tom was in the doorway he looked at me and then down at the letter "Kate what wrong?" Tom asked I picked up the letter and handed it to him Tom took the letter and sat down on my be and read it. "Oh Kate we are going to do somethings aot this i promise" Tom said with a determined look on his face i looked at him. " What?" I asked. "We are going to the police right now come on!" Tom said grabbing my hand i got up and we went to Toms car. Tom had a 97 mustang convertable its black. We drove a little ways to down town and stopped at the police station we got out and went inside a police officer at the front desk asked if he could be of any help? "We would like to make a threat complaint" Tom said " ok if you will have a seat ove there i will get someone to speak to you in a minute" the officer replied pointing to a set of chairs we sat down. We had been sitting there 45 minutes when a young police officer came out and walked towards us "Hi my names officer Grant why dont you come to my office and we will find out whats wrong" officer Grant said ushering us to hs office. His office was spacious "have a seat" officer Grant was working on some papers real quick then he looked up "ok i am sorry i took so long i hat to make a phone call now do tell me whats this threats about?" officer Grant said. So Tom told him the whole story about Derek from the beggining and then about the note officer Grant sat quietly and calmly as Tom explained when Tom finished officer Grant looked at us "can i see the note?" he asked i pulled the note out of my pocket and handed it to officer Grant. He read it over and handed it back to me. "Well we will get someone out there to repair your window no charge and also to keep an eye out!" Officer Grant said handing us one of his cards" If you need anything call me" he said "ok" i replied and Tom and i got up an left "Want to go get some icecream?" Tom asked i nodded we got shakes and went home the repair man just arrived for the window we explained to dad he nodded and went to bed the repair man finished, cleaned up and left i was tired and so was Tom we went to our bedrooms.

    Reno

    Every thing was as usual, Vega layed on the couch watching the T.V. Chris was out, probly sayin his goodbye's. I stepped off the stair and made my way to the kitchen i wasnt exactly hungry so i went to the counter next to the fridge and got myself a bagal. i moved myself in to the living room quietly munching on the bagal watching the T.V. to see what Vega was watching. The news had just clicked to the weekly forcast. "Want to know something ironic?" Vega asked me while his eyes were fixed to the T.V. i finished what bagal i had in my mouth "what?" i answered "you know everytime we leave the weather is usualy dark and gloomy" once he brought it up i relized it as well. "Yeah that's ironic" Vega's hand graved the remote and pressed the power button and shut the T.V. off. "Well" he said sitting up. "I'm gonna float around, see if i can't swing by a couple of friends places one last time" " I'll be sure to let Erin and Franz know if thy ask." "Thanks see ya in a few" Vega said sliding out the door. It was odd he seemed fine, Chris probly calmed him down alot. The rest of the day was quiedt since Erin and Franz worked and Chris and Vega were out. I searched the house for the court order that had told us we had to move i started te frutless search in my adopted parents room. Carefully moveing things around and replaceing them to there places to avoid showing that i had searched there. The most obvious and last spot i looked was a fieling cabnet that sat level with my adopted parents bed. There were three drawers each had a key hole and takeing my chance i pulled on the top drawer nothing happened. Then i pulled on the middle with the same result then finaly the last one with the same result as the last two. I sighed and ran my left hand through my thick brown hair all the while stareing at the cabnet. Down stairs the front door opened and slamed shut quickly scurryng out of the room and down the hall practicly running the distance to my room which was three doors down. As my foot crossed the doorway to my room a voice shouted from the bottom of the stairs "Yo Reno where are ya!?!" the voice belonged to Vega i spunn around and yelled back "My room!" Vega ran up the stairs and came to a halt outside the doorway where i now stood. "Looking for stuff arent you?" he said calling me out on my actions. i came clean "Yeah the usual" he shruged "i don't blame you" It was easy for people to tell tht Vega was not our biological brother he had heavy hispanic features black hair,the whole facial set as well with the temper that took us some time to channel. Myself and Chris were exact oppisite, except for y aressive temper though Chris and i bared similar looks brown hair, hazel eyes, stocky posture. The only thing that seperated us two were height. Natrualy i was smaller though from the relatives who knew said we'd look alot like our mother, before they died. My mind went off in to a tangel completely unaware that Vega was saying something to me until he lightly pushed my shoulder and said "Hey you there?" feeling slightly embarassed i scratched the back of my head and replied "Sorry kind of drifted off there" he smiled and said in a chuckled under tone "yeah its obvious." "Anyway...what were you saying?" he shruged and repeated "while i was out i stopped by to see Erin at the store. she told me to tell you and Chris that anything we cant carry on the plane they will mail out to us" i nodded with great relief knowing that a pair of knives that i had safely hidden would be safe. "Oh and yeah they know about the knives too" My eyes shot up in disbelief and bewilderment "Yep thay kept a close eye on you for some time till they decided t leave you alone." it was another surprise to add to the list they knew i had them but yet didnt take them away from me. That would be something i would ask them later. leaning against the door i looked at Vega and asked "So they have and adress" he shrugged "I'd think so i mean they know where we are going after all." i shook my head trying to process what little facts i had."Still not really like them to do this even if there quite set on respecting the wishes of others" "Yeah is's hard to argue on that but guess we should just wait and see""We have been waiting for four years to see anything good happen" Vega chuckled. " This is new normally i'm the pesamist" i breathed deeply letting my head fall. "just tired of fighting endless and meaningless battles. Just dambed tired ya know?" Vega's face changed to a more serious look and his arms folded across his chest."Dude cut the s**t your the last one effected by anything all these years you've kept yourself together and NOW of all times you are breaking?!" i locked my eyes on his and told him "No i just don't show it It's all kept inside of me. how do you think i lash out o hard when i'm fighting.That really the best way for me to get everything out all those bottled up fellings just realee in my rage!" his face didnt change all he did was nod from the way his eyes stayed focussed it seemed that he understood what i said. "Never the less you got your stuff packed?" "Squared away and ready to go...like always" "hey were you suppost to get anything fromthe shop or were you just swinging by to see Erin?" his face changed drastictly both his eyes shout up and jaw dropped to the floor. "Oh...s**t I FORGOT!" i snatched up my trench coat from the other side of the door. "Well lets get a move on" I threw th jacket on feeling a little bit lighter from talking to him. We both jumped the stairs adn bolted out the door forgeting to lock it. We would probably geet yelled at for that but we were enjoying what time we had now. Sunday morning around 3:00 A.M i was shaken my eyes opened to Franz standing over me "Up and at it come on." Like a zombie i got up a stared at Franz me and Franz are relatively the sam height, he was short for his age. His long wavey blond hair covered his eye brows. As i stared blankly at him he sid something to me but i didnt hear it because i was so tired. We stared at eachother for a minute more then he said somthingelse to me "take you bag out to the car i still need to wake Chris and Vega up" i heard him clearly that time and relized that it was sunday. I nodded back to him and picked up my bag off the floor then chucked it on my bed. Franz left the room leaving me along. I took one last look around the room embraceing the last feelings of Colorado. Swallowing a breath of air and letting it out i snatched an MP3 player tht lay coiled on my dresser with the head phones in my ears i grobbed my bag and went downstairs. At th base of the staris was a coat hanger where i hing up my trench coat the night before. My right hand snatched it from the hanger and threw it on. With my bag in my hand again i opened the door. A cold wind greeted my face. I pressed down the stairs and across the driveway to the rear of the ford and popped the trunk open. My left hand threw my duffel bag in and the other slammed it shut. I sat myself in the back behind the passengers seat and clossed the door. I turned on the MP3 player and rested my head against the window. The music began pumping in to my ears loudly. I adjusted the voume down slightly and closed my eyes.









    Reno

    I didn't know that i had fallen asleep till i was punched in the arm by Vega. My head snapped up and looked at him then looked out the window to see that we had arrived. We got out and got our things and said our goodbye's. The look on their faces seemed like they were about to break down to tears. It amazed me how much feelings they had for us. They drove off and we went through the normal airport procedures. There was some thing about airports taht pissed the three of us off. The nuetral appearance we once had changed into anger. Nothing happened during our plane ride to Denver until we landed. As we came out of the gate Chris tapped my shoulder. I looked over my shoulder and he said to me, "Happy Birthday bro". It took me a second to process it. "What?" i said back as we walked towards another gate. "He said Happy Birthday" Vega answered for him. I shrugged "Thanks" i said flatly to them . The truth was i didn't care. It was just another year spent in theis hell. I cranked up the volume on my MP3 player as the song "Nothin For Me Here" started. It was fitting for what was going on, ironically to fitting. After several layovers and other masalanious airport "activities" we arrived. Our legs wer tight from the respective plane rides as we staggered out with our bags over our shoulders we stopped on a ledge over baggage claim "uhhh...who are wi lookin for?" Vega asked looking at the people scurrying about. "Don't know man." I said watching for anything particular. "yeah same here" Chris responded. I rolled my eyes muttering "just ******** great." under my breath and stepped away. "i'll go check the other side." Vega said starting to wlk to our left. "Give me a minute or so ." i stretched out my arms, gripped the railing with my hands and sighed. Chris hunched over his arms falded on top of each other. "Back to square one huh?" he asked. "Yep same ******** shis all over again." "Think this is our last stop." "No when is it ever? Would be nice though if we could of just stayed where we were." "Heh, well at least we have had some thing interesting happen to us." i turned my head to look at him.What he said i didn'd understand at all. How could he call this a life, always being herded from place to place never able to call a place home and really mean it. He looked at the look on my face and read it clearly. "You'll get it eventually" I shrugged. I didnt care at all now all i cared about was getting out of the airport.We went back to looking over the ledge when we heard heavy feet running towards us. Naturally we took a look to see Vega running towards us dodgeing people as he went. He slid to a stop a few feet from us. " I found a guy, he's holding a sign that has our names on it" "How far?" Chris asked. "You can see on the other side of the escelator""Well then lets go" Vega bolted off in the crowd of people. Me and Chris chased after him dodgeing people as best as we could.We leaned over the railing at the place Vega mentioned lookin for the sign he mentioned. Vega did the honors of quicky pointing the sign out by saying "It's right under tha car ad." My eyes found the ad and traced down to a white cardboard sign with our names written in black. I tired to take a look at the face of the person but so many people moved around it made it nearly impossible to get a good look. Secnce I couldent make the face out I just angerly pushed away neraly running in to a few people that strolled on by. "Well, lets go meet this 'direct reletive'". I started to walk when Chris's voice cut me off. "Reno , hang on a second." I turned around and snaped "What!"
    "If you ask me people don't dress THAT nice to pick people up." With shock I ran back over and took another look. He was right he was well dressed and did stand out if there were not people constantly moveing around but, with the fair distance I couldent make out any facial features. Once again I looked at the sign focousing on reading the names checking the spellin of each. The black letters perfectly formed Reno Doyal, Vega Sandora, and Chirs Doyal. Once the check was done I took a look at the persons figure. There hand reached in to there pocked and pulled out some thing that looked likea small rectanlge that was most likely a picture. There was a quick glance down and then back up at us then a longer one back down. The three of us backed away and huddled in a triangle. "Well. Now what are we gona do?" Vega asked lookin across his sholder over the ledge. "Why not, we dont have any other opetions." Was Chirs's reply. I put my hands on top of my head and sighed deep with anger. "Might as well get this fine and plesent ******** misery started." Chris lafughed quietly at my comment. "Well what can we say. Misery love company." He started to walk twords the esclators. Both Vega and I exchanged looks and shruged dismissing the thought and triled after him.

    We waded through people and came up besides the person we say with the sign. He was a man in his late 20's or early 30's. He had big brown eyes, spikey black hair and a very tan complexion from being out in the sun for some time. He truned to us as we approched him."Chris,and Reno Doyal. And Vega Sandora."
    "Thats us." I told him flatly folding my arms across my chest. He nodded once and said "Well lets get going. I'll try to explin on the way." It was surprsing in a essence that he was goin to explain though I had a feeling he wasent. Judgeing from the way he looked at the picture he was not our actual reletive so I decided to hold my anger in for a little longer. The three of us followed him out the doors to the usal air of airports. The sun nearly blinded me as the doors slid to a close. A black pair of black rimed relefective sun glass that had been pearched on my head all day were finaly brought down by my free hand to cover my eyes from the blinding sun. As we triled him some more Chris spoke up from behind me. "Hey.. uh... whats your name?" He turned around "What?" he replied obvioulsy not hearing what Chris had asked. "Whats your name." Chirs spoke with more impaience. One thing he hated was to repeat him self. We took a quick left and were approaching a small parkin lot blocked by a chail linked fence with a gate for people to pass through. We walked for a nother yard or two and he turned his head back again. "My name is Philip Louis Conner." I felt my jaw dropand my eyebrows raise above my glasses. "OK!" Vega said from the far back "All we really needed to know is what to call you not the whole nine yards." Philip chuckled. "I dident expect that kind of response but, you can call me conner." My jaw and eyebrows returned to there orginal places. I found it odd that he wanted us to call him by his last name instead of his first though I would enevablity get used to it. We passed the fence and walked to a Toyta Carlloa that was parked remotely near. The car wasent the nicest thign I'd seen but it wasent necearly shaby either. Conner unlocked the vhecial and got in to the drives seat. While he did that the three of us went to our natural position; I went to the back passenger side, Chirs sat in front of me and Vega behidn Conner. As the car was driven out of the gate after Conner paid the fine I impaintly waited for him to say some thing. Though I soon lost track of that thought and keep quiet for the whole duration of the ride that I did not time.

    We pulled up in front of a nice white house that seamed to be recntly build and was rather large for what I have lived in. The way the sun hit off the pain it seamed to completly bypass my sunglasses and made my divert my site to the road. The four of us piled out with our bags in hand. Conner walked up to the door as we followed he appolgized. "Sorry for not expling it on the road I'd figured that you'd rather discuss this over food." At the mention of the word 'food' my stomach growled. The whole day I had eaten little, only the airplace complemtnary snaks and those dident do good. The idea was sound so we followed Conner in to the massive house. The temperature was defentlay better in here than it was out side. The flordia weather was slowly starting to get to me but the cool air of the houe made my keep my trench coat on. Once my vision adjused to being in side for a second I actully grasped how large this place was. To my right was a dinning table that looked like it was made out of oak or a real expensive wood along with the chairs that accompied it. A elegant table cloth coved to top and draped over the sides a little. A satir case was a little to the left and a small hall way was on the right at least a 7 foot space. The stiars had a akwardly white capet going on up to a hall way. The left was some thing that rembled a living room. A wood table with a clear peice of glass say in the middle of a few couches surrounding it all in color codination with the capet. "Kitche is this way." Conner told us and walked down the hall. Chris quickly followed behind him and they rounded the corner. I leaned over to Vega and wispered, "He is ******** loaded." He dident say anything but the way his face reacted he understood and agreed. I started my way down the hall and had a door handle smash in to my ribs. I clenched my teeth to subside the sudden pain and my hand covered the area. Conner in the other room heard the smack and said lound and causal. "Yeah thats a closet and there is a bath room on the right too." Being fustrated, angry and in pain I gruned back. "Yeah I appricate the warning there."

    The kichen was fairly nice. More of the front room was on the far end to our left. It just showed how much money he had. We leaned over a small island in the kitchen as Conner opend a cabnit on the top. "What you guys want." My eyes looked in and saw the one most appealing thign all day: Oreos. Vega and Chris saw them because with out a second both said simotinously "Oreos." Conner looked in the cabnit and had a quick grim look on his face. "s**t you found them, oh well just dont eat them all." He grabed the bag and slid it across the island twords me. My right hand stoped it with the usual crakcle of a bag and slid it over to Chris. "Ok, now that were situated why dont you tell us whats going on. He obviously dident think that we would of been that persistant. He looked me stright in the eye for a moment and let out a fake deep sigh."Sorry I cant tell you much but, you'll meet him in a bout a week or two depending on how things go." The bad of oreos slid past me to Vega. Once he cought the box Chris said "What do you mean 'a week or two." Judgeing by the look on his face again he dident like us asking a whole lot of questions. His hand was put on the table and continued "He works for a large complany hence the large house. He normaly goes on business trips that gan range from a few days to a month depending on how things go." His hand returned to his sides and attempted to change the subject."Anyway, you guys want to put your stuff in the rooms." I turned around lookin over my sholder. "No thanks, I"m gona walk around and get fimilar with around here." I started walking out. At the hall way i truned around. "Yeah you guys and just trhwo my s**t in the troom you dont want." I made my way to the door and yelled back "I'll be back at dark." And made my way out the doro closeing it shut behind me. I did the usal walk around of and area. First went around the block then expanded from there. I continued to wander across sidewalks aimlessly till I saw a conerstore. I knew I had some money and an energy drink would do me some good. I walked on in the clerk greeted me with the first smilke i've seen all day. I took a turn down an isle that was full of magazines and such. At the end of the isle I found the large refridgerators and opend one up that contined the energy drink that I wanted. I causly stroled up to the clerk and placed the drink on the counter then reached back in my back pocket to get my wallet out of my navy blue BDU's. She scanned the drink and asked me "Your not from around here are you." I took on look at what I was wearing and megerly replied "Its obvious." I saw the total and paid a little more. As the clerk went to give me the changed she asked soem thign else "Where are you from." I looked at here eyes behind my own sunglasses and said "Some where that dosent have this kind of weather too often." She just smiled and said "Have a nice day."
    With my energy drink tucked safely away in the depth of my trench coat pocket I left the same manner I came in with. sence the store was on the corner of an intersection I went around the corner because I wasent really ready to head back yet and that I needed a reletivly quiet place to think. As I took the corner, not paying attention, a person ran into me nearly makeing me lose my balance in the process. But I had sen the person who ran in to me on the ground. "Sorry, I wasent paying attention." A female voice said to me from the ground below a few feet away from me. Closein the gap I offered the gril a hand to help her back to her feet. "Yeah my bad too I wasent necessarly paying attention either." She seamed to nevously take my hand, once she did I took a step back useing the extra force to hoist her back to her feet. Now I had a good look at her. She looked about 5'1", five inches shorter than me, long black hair, and marcilious sky blue eyes that distracted my attentino for a few seconds. She wore black clothes and was pale to the point she wasent around here long either. I nodded once to reaffirm that I was sorry and stepd around her and continued walking untill I came to a park. I decided that this would do for now till I got even more fimilar with the area. I passed a cleched fence arch way entrence and made and turn left on to the grass. I noticed a small patch of grass carefully concealed by a large tree and surrouded by bushes but had a grass walk way to it. I made my way to the tree and say againts it and placed my energy drink on the ground to my right. Looking up at the vibernt blue sky I lost my self in a array of thoughts that I could not keep track of.
    I had quickly lost track of time and reality its self untill lound chatter quickly corrected it. I pushed my back of the tree and crouched behidn the bushes to see what was heppeing. Takeing a quick peek up I saw what was going on. The girl that I had run in to some time earyer was standing near the gate her expression was grim and anger mixed into one. Also seeing three guys standing relteivly close to each other I made a guess in my head that they were the ones bothering her. I say and watch the qural play out. Though as I watched an anger built up inside of me as usual when events like this occour. Trying to keep calm I sat back down and tried to rationly think it out though the moral side of me took over. So I stood up and walked around the tree, rounding the tree I said loundly getting there atteniton "What might we be doing?" I cracked my nuckles and neck glareing at the three through the darkness of my sunglasses. My wolf necklace was shown freely as my ritual before I get in to a fight.
