Dani has been flying for days. The GIWs (guys in white) have been hot on her trail for two months. She found the only way to ditch them was to be a human. Easy as that sounds she fell asleep on a Bus passing Amity and couldn't afford one back, she walked, for a week. Eating only what 10 bucks could buy her, a man gave her the 10 and that's the help she got for a long time.

GIW are not the only ones hot on her trail, a woman, Rose Patters, social services worker. Rose, mid thirties, red hair back in a bun, had a story of her own she tried to hold back, compress and forget. But the memories of being abused at 6 and leaving home with her brother at 10 Haunted her permanently making it her life goal to take runaways to the state, to the system, to find parents, unite family's and prevent her future from being A kids reality.

Rose saw dani tired, dirty, and hungry, lying by the supermarket, she saw dani open a pack of crackers with a guilty face as she at them. This is why Rose had this job, to stop this. Rose approached dani, and was caught off gaurd by the bright flash of green eyes that greeted her, dani thinking fast, turned her head and threw a green bottle away from her face to make it look like that was what the green the woman saw taken back by this said "that's quite the trick you got there, did your dad show you that?"

That cut deep.

"no ma'am he didn't."

"do you know where you parents are?"

dani thinking quick realized this woman was gonna call her parents if she said she had them, "in heaven miss. About a year ago they died and I've been trying to find my cousin in Amity park, are you heading that way?"

It shocked Rose how open this little girl was, she had family, why didn't she call them? If her parents died a year ago then why is she finding her cousin now? Questions filled her mind but she knew she needed to act fast or the trust in this child would flutter away. "Yes i am, my brother is in amity, would you like a ride to your cousins house?"

"Oh yes miss thank you!" Dani knew the best way from GIW was to find Danny!

The car looked new, shinny black, familiar, she had seen the same car before. Dani didn't know where, but she did. Maybe familiar is good, she thought as she climbed in the car, thoughts racing.

Danny could not adopt her because of his parents, tucker? No. Sam? That's it sam! sam had black hair, so did she, sam could be her cousin, in a way, could sam adopt her? No, she couldn't have a family,It's to painful to think of another father like Vlad.

Her thoughts were interrupted with "so who's your cousin?"

on her toes again. "Sam Manson , she is sadly the only member of the family I know, her parent don't know me, but I knew sam from an accidental meeting on a road trip! Her best friend fed me and got me clean cloths, a bath, and sam and I talked a lot! Besties even, and then we found I was related as a second cousin somehow, I forget." The whole time dani talked she used an Innocent voice , laughing, acting younger, more vonravble. To see what game this woman was playing, even this woman's name was...wait.

"miss?"

"yes darling?"

weird woman. "I'm sorry what's your name?"

"how rude of me! My name is miss rose, Rose Patters, but Rose is fine dearie."

"ok miss Rose, my name is Danielle, but you can call me dani!" Getting on this woman's good side was not hard, I just had to humor her for another 7-8 hours or so...crap.
