School just got out and Aqua told me to meet her outside of school so I started to head outside. I turned down a hallway and ran into someone. They looked at me and said, "Watch where your going."

I said, "Sorry"

The girl looked at me and said, "Your that new girl aren't you? Ivy, the one who's parents abandoned her and your foster parents didn't want you anymore so they sent you here."

"That's not why they sent me here," I responded.

The girl said, "Then why did they?"

I said, "I don't know."

"See so maybe that was why. You don't belong here. It was a mistake for you to come here," She said. She then pushed me to the left of her and me and a guy hit into each other. The girl just walked off.

I looked at the guy and said, "Sorry."

I turned to leave but he said, "Hold on." I turned around and looked at him. He had dirty blonde hair that's kind of curly and blue eyes.

I asked, "What do you want?"

He looked at me for a second and then said, "Nothing. I did see what she did and said to you though."

I said, "Good for you."

He asked, "You seem kind of used to this. So are you?"

I said, "Yeah kind of."

He said, "That's not good."

"I'll live," I replied. I started to walk off and he started walking with me.

He said, "I guess, but it's not a good thing that your used to it."

I shrugged and said, "It's fine." By this point we were standing in front of Aqua.

This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.

She said, "Hi Ivy."

I said, "Hey."

She looked at the guy standing next to me and said, "So I see you've meet Zane."

I turned to him and said, "So that's your name."

He said, "Yeah " He looked at Aqua and said, "We kind of ran in to each other." With that he told her what happened.

I said, "I probably shouldn't have come here. It probably was a mistake."

Aqua and Zane said simultaneously, "No it wasn't."

"You have two people who already like you and are your friends you'll be fine, "Aqua replied.

Zane said  "Let's head over to my room and we can hang out and work on honehome or something."

I asked, "Will your roommate be there?"

"No, I don't have a roommate like. I live by myself in one of the rooms. A couple people do that because there's not even amounts of boys and girls and they don't want a girl and a guy sharing a room with each other," Zane replied.

I said, "Makes sense I guess." Me, Jax, and Aqua went to Zanes room.

When we got there we kind of did are homework but mainly we talked to each other and watched movies. It was about eight at night when Zane asked, "So you haven't seen much of London yet Ivy?"

I looked at him and said, "No."

He said, "I moved here when I was about thirteen with my parents but when I got old enough to go to Silver Oak they left moved back to where we are originally lived. Anyway I know the city pretty well, so does Aqua. Let's go"

I asked, "Go where?"

"To show you around London," Zane replied

We stood up and I asked, "Where did you live before here?"

Zane said, "Georgia." With that we all left Zane room and called a cab. When the cab showed up Zane told the driver to drive Into London and when we are in the main part of the city to pull over. The cab driver did what he was told and we got out of the cab.

We all stood in the middle of London on the sidewalk. We started walking and looking around at there buildings and looking on the different shops. After about an hour a guy approched us. He looked at me and asked, "Are you Ivy Starr?"

I said, "Depends on who's asking."

He handed me an envelope and said, "Your parents tracked me down and gave me this to give to you."

I said, "As far as I know my birth parents are dead and my foster parents are in Arizona."

He said, "Your birth parents gave it to me. They aren't dead." He showed me a picture of my real parents with him and said, "This was taken this morning."

I asked, "Ok so why didn't they give it to me themselves?"

He said, "They're hunting something, and there also on the run."

I asked, "What are the hunting and why are they on the run?"

The guy said, "I've said to much already." A bus pulled up next to us and a lot of people got off. When the people left we turned back to face the guy but he was gone.

Aqua said, "That was weird."

Zane said, "Yeah it was."

I said, "Come on let's get out of here." We called a cab and it took us back to the school. We went up to mine and Aquas room.

Zane asked, "Are you going to open it?"

I said, "I don't know. Should I?"

Aqua said, "Go for it."
