Max sat on a log in the middle of the forest, taking a break from running for about 5 miles to reach where she was heading. The lighthouse. It never needed to be explained what it was, it was just the lighthouse. Finally, Max stood up and stretched, walking calmly in the direction she had been heading in for the past few hours. After maybe 30 minutes, she finally reached the goddamn lighthouse. She grinned and opened the door that never seemed to be locked. She sat on the bottom step of the metal staircase that led to the top.

Max pulled out her wallet from the bag she carried around with her at all times, and checked to see how much money she had, which was about 200 dollars, taken from people and found on the streets. Max grinned at the photo that was also in her wallet.

It was a picture of her best friend in the whole world, Chloe Price. The friend that she had to leave, only for her parents to forget completely about her and kick Max out of the house in a blind panic. Max sighed at that memory and continued to stare at the picture of her blonde, long haired friend who was giving a peace sign in the picture.

Max stuffed the wallet back into her bag and stood back up. She actually managed to sign up for Blackwell Academy during the 5 years she was gone. She paid for the scholarship using money from jobs and stealing from people. So, thank God she at least had a place to stay at, but now she had to go to school. Max groaned and began making her way to the actual town part of Arcadia Bay, passing by trees and flowers that she really wanted to take pictures of, but she didn't want to waste the film.

When she finally reached Blackwell, she went in and found the office so they knew she was in fact there. She got her schedule and went to the girl's dorm building and walked through the halls to find her dorm room. Once she finally found it, she immediately closed the door behind her and crashed onto the bed that had been provided for all the dorm rooms.

Max laid there for a moment before sitting back up. She took everything out of her bag and started putting stuff away. Clothes just kinda stuffed into the closet, laptop put on a desk that was set up in front of a window, and she taped photos that she had carefully stuffed into a small pocket onto a wall. She sat back down on her bed and couldn't help but feel proud, even though it didn't take much effort.

Soon enough, Max finally realized how tired she was and passed out, clothes and muddy, possibly ruined shoes still on.
