Here is my new story. Like always: first of all I am just lending the characters they are not mine. I am German so this isn't that easy for me, so if there are some mistakes with the language please feel free to tell me and be kind! I hope you like the story, but now enjoy!


"How to be lost" by Sapphira Eleyne

Prologue "Shadows"

This wasn't good idea; twelve-year-old Allisone Fitzgerald thought not knowing why she was doing this. The day had been warm, but a cool breeze came from the river when they headed for the house and she was freezing. What if someone saw them and reported them to the police? But she couldn't go and leave Cindy alone. What if she did something stupid and dangerous? She didn't like the way Cindy was taking over, and the she didn't like the way she push away a young girl who was in her way. If they were caught, there was no way the department would let her live with her dad. This was such a bad idea. She should be with Whitney and help her with her homework and not hanging around with Cindy.

"Cindy, let's go!" Allie whispered.

"What's the matter?" Cindy said coolly as she brushed her blond hair out of her brown eyes and leaned towards Allisone whispering, "Loosing your nerve?"

"No, but I thought we only wanted to look at the film and not do it here!"

"This is a great idea and what I have heard about you, you are the right one!" Cindy laughed.

Maybe Cindy was right. Allisone hated wearing the uniform. She hated doing anything the same way everyone else was doing. But she decided that if she had to dress like the other kids, at least she could make sure her hair displayed her uniqueness. Every couple of weeks she had different coloured streaks in her long white-blond her. This week the streaks were blue.

She wasn't close to many people. She didn't have a lot of friends, and most of the time she preferred to be alone. She was known for saying exactly what she thought, which made other kids uneasy around her. Not her girlfriend Whitney and she thought Cindy, but now she wasn't so sure.

"I'm not that girl any longer Cindy, that was another lifetime, what if we get caught?"

"We're not going to get caught," Cindy argued. "I thought you were daring and not such a coward if you try and back out now, I'll tell. I'll tell everyone it was all your idea," she said.

"You can't do that. It wasn't my idea, they won't believe you!" Allie shouted.

"Oh, yes! I'm the good girl and you were caught by the police earlier. I can!" Cindy whispers.

Allisone stared at her. Cindy was probably bluffing, but what if she really told everything? Her new life would break apart. She couldn't bear it one more time to be separated from her father. She loved him too much and it would be hell.

"Let's go!" Allie said.

Cindy smiled and run up the ramp. Nervously Allisone followed her up the ramp to the entrance.
