Jasmin, a 16 year old mixed girl, looked restlessly at the floor while her good friend Nyvyella, a 17 year old African American girl, braided her hair. Nyvyella had a distressed look on her face and Jasmin knew exactly why. It had only been the day before that Jasmin, Alex, Nyvyella, and Logan went to GameStop for their annual Buy-all-the-coolest-games-you-can-contest that started at midnight. As soon as they all got to GameStop Jasmin saw something on the side of the building. Nyvyella hesitated before starting to read the letter," Oh no… there's a demolition scheduled on December 17, 2012. That's only 3 weeks from now!"Alex cupped his hands over his face, Jasmin burst into tears, Logan trying to comfort her, and Nyvyella clenched the letter in her fist tears forming in her eyes. No they weren't crying because they'd never go to GameStop again, there's more than one you know, it was because Jasmin had been born in that building and the whole annual Buy-all-the-coolest-games-you-can-contest helped keep the store in business. But like all stores every year it got more and more boring and then soon enough everyone would stop going. But the most depressing part was that her father, a couple of years ago, had died from cancer as well as her mother dying soon after the birth of Jasmin. That was when Nyvyella had made an oath to protect Jasmin. Jasmin had cried herself to sleep an hour later and it was about 2:30 in the morning."I'll take her to the car…" Logan, a 17 year old Caucasian male, coughed. Alex, a 16 year old Caucasian male, twiddled with his short orange hair and looked up to see Nyvyella walking towards a dark shadowy figure,"Nyvyella what are you doing?" He whisper shouted. She looked back scowled at him mouthing him to be quiet. Alex got up to follow her but Logan yanked his arm,"She knows what she's doing…" Logan murmured."I hope so." Alex said a little worried. Nyvyella moved the long dark brown hair out of her minty green eyes, while shaking out her crimson sweater and dusting off her ripped skinny jeans. Nyvyella peered to see who was hiding under the hood when she heard the most freaking annoying voice from the one and only Slippy. Jasmin, just waking up, wiped the gunk from her eyes and looked out the window to see a shadowy figure handing four envelopes to Nyvyella. Nyvyella had a solemn yet exasperated look on her face."I'm sorry Slippy." said Nyvyella angrily."We can't go it's too risky and I have Jasmin to look after it's just…" Nyvyella sighed. She knew it was the right choice but Jasmin was so fragile and how would she fend for herself sometimes. Nyvyella wiped the tears starting to form in her eyes and snatched the envelopes from Slippy," We'll do it Slippy but I swear Slippy…" Nyvyella shouted grabbing his shirt collar and slamming him against the brick wall," If Jasmin so help me looses a hair on her head you'll lose your life got it" She yelled. No answer. "GOT IT!" She yelled fire gleaming in her eyes."Y-yes…Mam…" Slippy whispered quietly. Nyvyella dropped him to the ground and he quickly scuttled up and hurried away. As Nyvyella walked towards the car Jasmin, Alex, and Logan ran up to meet her. Some years were shed, solemn and depressed faces shared and they all walked to the car. Jasmin straightened out her long sleeve black and green striped T-shirt and messed with the chains of her black skinny jeans. Moving the blue and green highlighted black hair out of her face she opened her envelope, so did the others?"Wow…" Alex said in awe."We're going to Gamer High?" Logan said quizzically. Jasmin looked at hers," I've never even heard of it and according to the brochure it's going to be wonderful…" Jasmin said aware of the worried expression on Nyvyella's face. Logan wearing a black leather jacket with a domo shirt underneath and thick brown hair took Nyvyella's hand. He mouthed the words," You'll be alright." But that wasn't what she was worried about she was worried about clumsy and fragile."Okay how bout we get a good night's sleep it says here in the envelope to meet here next Tuesday." Logan said trying to break the silence. He shifted the GMC into drive and they drove to Arigonna village where Jasmin and Nyvyella lived, "Here we go…" Logan said,"501 Mabry CT." They all got out of the car and Alex hugging Nyvyella and Jasmin and Logan doing the same planting a kiss on Jasmin's forehead they exchanged some words and then, waving goodbye, the girls went back inside. Jasmin put her leather purse on the counter of the kitchen and looked at Nyvyella,"What are you so worried about Nyvyella I'm not a kid anymore I can take care of myself!" Jasmin yelled furiously. Nyvyella looked at the high energy young girl, "I'm sorry it's just I'm worried about you this will be your first year of high school and at a high school with a bunch of game and TV. Characters..." Nyvyella was cut off by the stomping off feet going up the stairs,"I know what we are getting ourselves into but have faith Nyvyella…" Jasmin said sadly. Moments later Nyvyella heard the rush of the shower running. She was too depressed to do anything so she lay on the couch and fell asleep," I've failed everyone hasn't I she'll get hurt…" all these thoughts ran through her head as she ran through her worst night mare.
