Summery- Buffy's dead and Dawn is left alone. However after Buffy's death Dawn's runs away, trying to run away from the guilt that she carries and her old life that she wants to have nothing to do with. She runs to Seattle, Alone and scared that they will find her, and there she meets some well..interesting people and immediately feels a strong connection. But what happens when some interesting people (Like White or Manticore) find out she's not exactly human, and is also different? Now she must help fight for her freedom and the others along with her life. How will she do this when she refuses to let the people around her in? (And you might want to read the A/N to get a few things ok.)
A/N- Okay this is my first DA crossover with Buffy. So if it's really horrible it's not my fault. Lol. Anyhow In this Dawn is like sixteen or seventeen or sixteen getting ready to turn seventeen. First Dawn had been running for quite some time now, and has been alone for (d#mn computer classes) quite some time also. And Buffy died protecting Dawn yet once again. I'll tell you how in either this chapter or later chapters. As for the scoobies I'm not sure if I'm going to make them hate her, or their dead also. What do you guys think? So well just see. However Tara is dead, as much as it sucks, she is dead. Okay I think that's it. If not I'll tell you at the end of the chapter. And Max and her siblings live in Terminal city, just because I like it better when she and her sibs are together. So Zack and Tinga aren't dead, and Manticore brought Ben back to life so now Ben's like a little crazy and Max and her sibs are trying to make him better. Just thought I'd inform you. OK. And I'm not sure if I want Buffy to come back to life or not. What do you guys think? Anyways give me feedback please. AND SHOULD DAWN BE A SLAYER? I think she will be.
Parings- I have no clue. Should Max be with Alec or Logan? Or should he (Alec) be with Jondy? OR WHO SHOULD BE WITH WHOM!! PLEASE HELP ME OUT HERE!!!!!!!! Give me feedback on who should be with whom!! Thanx!! They only couple I'm sure that's gonna be going to together is Krit and Syl! SO HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!!!

The trees passed by and the sky was a dreary gray, while the sun held no warmth to it. It was late into the hour and the sun was low in the sky shining through the window of the bus. It sent bright, but cold, rays through the window to play across a young girls face.
The girl had beautiful long straight brunette hair down to her waist, and the bluest biggest eyes every imaginable. She had pale pink lips and a small nose that fit her almost perfectly. She was about 5'3 or around that height and was thin, but in shape. She had a beautiful porcelain complexion to her and was all in all very beautiful. She was around the age of seventeen or sixteen. However, no matter her beauty you could see the shadow of sadness looming over her, practically taste the taint of the shadow that surrounded her. Her name was Dawn Summers.
Dawn sat on the bus in a seat close to the back and next to the window. She watched as the trees and highway passed by her, she watched as she kept growing further away from her corrupted life that she wished she could run from, what she was running from, running away from 'him'. She wore a black baseball cap low on her head and a pair of jeans with a black shirt with a black jacket on over top of it. Her hair was pulled back in a French braid that hung down her back.
The sun glowed against her features and she closed her eyes to block out the sun. She didn't deserve to see the sun, it was her fault after all. Her fault that her sister and friends were dead it was all her fault or so she thought and felt deep within her self. From the moment her sister had died she had swore not to get close to people, because she would only bring them death and pain. As Dawn's thoughts drifted the bus pulled to a halt and Dawn looked around. She was in Seattle. Dawn quickly got up and grabbed her dark book bag that held her clothes and other 'important' things she would need. She then put it on her back and walked off the bus and looked around.
'Here we go Dawn. Come on, your not going to get anywhere just standing here.' Dawn told herself and took one step forward, already wishing she had a thicker coat to where, a warm home to go to. A family to welcome her, she wanted her sister, her mom. She quickly blinked away the tears that started to come into the surface of her eyes, she refused to show weakness now that Buffy was gone. She had to be strong for her sister, even stronger then before.
On this particular day the wind was harsh and whipped at her face and hair, making it billow outwards. Dawn shivered and crossed her arms tightly to try and give herself more heat and slightly titled her head downward. As she walked her eyes scanned the crowd and people around her. The sun was leaving the sky fast, and she knew she had to find an empty building to sleep in somewhere, to escape the harsh weather that beat at her.
Dawn continued to walk down the street and look at the people that surrounded her, some with people who cared about them, others going home to the people that cared about them. Dawn wished that was her, going home to people that loved her, but no, here she was walking down the streets of Seattle alone without anyone in the world. Dawn sighed and noticed that it was now almost completely dark. She shuddered; she didn't want to have to deal with any 'monsters' tonight, or ever for that matter. She shook her head and tilted it downwards trying to get warmer from the cold night air. As she continued to walk, wrapped and absorbed in her own thoughts, she didn't even sense or notice the three figures walking up behind her until they pushed her in an alley.
"Get the f#ck off me!" Dawn said as she was thrown against the wall a piece of hair falling out of her braid and her bag dropping to the ground. She let out a small scream and kicked outward
"Feisty, I like that." Said one of the men, the biggest one, who had pulled her into the alley.
Dawn glared at the man hard, and wandered what they wanted with her, of course no matter what they wanted, she would kick they're butts. She lunged at the men, but one of them smacked her back. "Calm down sweetheart. We just want to have some fun." The one who was now holding her whispered in her ear as someone's hands slithered up her shirt, and the other one's hands slid up her legs. Dawn's eyes blazed and also shone with tears, she wanted to hurt these guys so bad, she was second close to whipping there butts in to shape when the one that had his hands on her legs and thighs was thrown away from her.
~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~& ~&~&
Max and Alec silently walked on top of the rooftops, after having just did a cat burglary in the museum, when there excellently hearing picked up something just a building away.
"Get the F#ck off of me!" Someone had yelled. Max exchanged glances with Alec and Alec only shrugged.
"Someone's in trouble." Max said, and jumped on to the other building and peered down into the Alleyway. There she saw three large guys, holding a very small petite girl against her will and touching her. She quickly took action by silently jumping down and grabbing the nearest one closets too her and throwing him off the small girl.
~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~& ~&~&
"What the h#ll!" The biggest one said as he took his hands from away from Dawn and looked over Max. He then walked toward her and swung at her. She dogged it easily and threw a punch back at him.
Dawn felt the others ones arms go limp and immediately took action. She first elbowed him in the ribs and then kicked him in the stomach with her foot. He stumbled back and looked back up at Dawn. "You b#tch!" He said and he walked toward her again, but before he could reach Dawn a very hot guy had knocked him out cold. It was then that Dawn noticed that all three guys were out cold and she was left with these too strangers who had saved her life, not that she couldn't herself however. She looked from one person to another and then back at the girl. Max looked over at the girl and slowly started to walk over to her, but quickly stopped when she saw the girl get in to a fighting mode. She looked puzzled at the girl for a moment.
Dawn didn't know if these people were here to hurt her or what, it was possible. Anything was possible for Dawn Summers. She looked at the too people with guarded eyes, and a tensed body ready to send punches if need be.
"We're not going to hurt you." Max said sensing something from the girl.
"I'm supposed to believe you?" Dawn asked and give a hollow laugh that was actually quite forced, anyone could tell. "Yeah right. How am I supposed to believe that? You could've been sent here to kill me." She said and mentally smacked herself for her big mouth.
"Well I assure you we weren't." Max said. She looked at the girl; she was young, no more then sixteen or seventeen. "I'm Max." Max introduced herself.
Dawn looked at her for a moment before letting her fighting stature disappear, with an exhausted stature. "Dawn." Dawn said quietly bending her head downward so her hat covered even more of her face from view. 'What am I supposed to do now?' Dawn asked herself.
"You should go home. It's not safe for a young girl like yourself to wonder alone at night in Seattle." Max said.
Sadness consumed Dawn. What home? She had no home, no family, where was she supposed to go? When Max saw she wasn't moving, and sensed the sadness around she grew even more puzzled about the girl. "I'm sure your family is worried about you." Max said. Dawn only shook her no, and then noticed she had dropped her bag. She slowly bent down and picked it, and slinging it over her shoulder.
"You're running away?" Max asked, even though she knew it wasn't her business.
"You could say that." Dawn said, still refusing to look up at the young woman.
Max and Alec exchanged glances. For some reason Max felt a connection with the girl, she couldn't explain it, but her heart reached out too her. "Then I'm guessing you have no where to go if you're a runner?" She asked looking the girl over.
Dawn shifted feet and shook her head. Like Max she also felt some kind of connection toward her, she also couldn't explain it, but it was there. Max took another step toward down and looked at her more closely. She could tell she was exhausted, and very tired. "Your tired, why don't you come back to my place." Max said and surprised her self more then Alec.
"No I couldn't, and besides I'm not tired." Dawn lied.
Max smirked. "Whatever you say, but I don't want to leave you alone here, so come on back to my place." Max offered again.
"No I don't want to impose." Dawn mumbled. 'I've done that to many ties already, and look where I am and where my family is.' Dawn thought bitterly.
"You wouldn't, now come on, before it gets any later." Max said.
"Your sure?" Dawn asked quietly, almost to quietly for the normal ear to hear.
"Yes." Max said. Finally Dawn nodded her head. "Then come on." Max said as her and Alec climbed back up toward the rooftops. Dawn looked after then and slowly started after them, wondering if this was a good idea or not.
~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~& ~&~&
Zack paced around the room anxiously. It had been over an hour since Max had left and he was worried about his baby sister. "Where the h#ll could they be?" He asked Zane. His blues eyes looking sharply at Zane. His blonde hair gently fell in his face. (I think you all know what Zack looks like. Isn't he a hottie, also?)
The brown-headed young man looked up at Zack from his article in the magazine he was reading. His hazel eyes looking coolly at Zack. (Just make up something for him) "Chill Zack. I'm sure she's fine. Alec's with her." He said.
"Whatever. There are still dangers out there and-" Zack was cut off as Max threw open the door and looked from one of her brothers to the other.
"What took you so long?" Zack asked.
"Well that's not the welcome I was expecting." Max said sarcastically. "Chill we had a little run in with some thugs, who were hurting a kid." Max said.
Zack looked at Max for a moment before nodding. "By the way this is Dawn." Max said moving out the way so her two brothers could see Dawn.
Zack looked at her suspiciously. "You brought her here? Max she could be part of them!" Zack said.
Dawn looked from Max to the blonde guy and then back at Max and back to the ground. "Part of what, if I may ask?" Dawn said.
Her small voice got the attention of all four Transgenic's in the room, Alec, Zane, Max, and Zack. Dawn looked from one place too another and wondered if this place was hottie heaven or something. "See she doesn't know anything! She's just a scared kid on the run from something." Max said.
"I'm not a kid." Dawn mumbled. Alec smirked from behind her, and the Transgenic's looked at her. Dawn cast her eyes downward and started to think this was a bad idea. 'See I'm already causing conflicts between them all. I'm nothing but trouble.' Dawn thought sadly, she still hadn't lifted her head up; it was still hidden in the shadows beneath her hat.
Zack looked at the girl through suspicious eyes, sure she didn't look like a threat, but she could still be one. "What's your name?" He asked gruffly.
"Dawn." Dawn answered softly.
"Dawn what?" Zack asked almost snappishly.
Dawn was silent for a moment, she wasn't sure if she should tell them her full name, but what the heck. "Summers."
"Come on Dawn, I'll show you where you will sleep for tonight." Max said leading Dawn away from the three males in the room and giving Zack a hard look.
When Max was gone all was silent until it was broken. "She doesn't look or seem dangerous." Alec said.
"There's still a chance she could be." Zack said, not wanting any harm to come to his family.
~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~& ~&~&
Max handed Dawn a blanket for her to use as she slept on her couch. Dawn hadn't said much, almost nothing, and she had yet to look so Max could see what she actually looked like. Max kept sending looks at her, and wondered if her lack of speaking had anything to do with what Zack had said to her. 'Honestly she's just a teenager.' Max thought.
"You can sit your bag down beside of the couch if you like." Max offered as she walked to her bathroom. Dawn glanced at her back and slowly slid her bag off her back and sat it down. When came back she looked refreshed and her face looked cleaner. Max noted that she was tense and most likely uncomfortable. "You can sit down." Max said. Dawn slowly sat down on the couch with her hands on her lap.
Max looked at her and wondered if she was ever going to take the hat off. "Well you must be tired, so I'll just you get some sleep." Max said and only got a nod from Dawn.
"Um.. Can I use your bathroom?" Dawn asked quietly.
Max smirked. "It's right there." Max said. Dawn nodded and left taking a brush from her bag with her.
When Dawn got in the bathroom she closed the door and flicked on the dim light. She slid off her hat and looked at the bruise and cut on her left eye that marred her beautiful complexion. She had gotten it from a previous fight, about a night ago. She sighed and took out her braid shaking her hair slightly to get it all loose, and to hang and frame around her face. She slowly started to brush her hair until all the knots where out and then grabbed her hat and excited the bathroom, her head down, with her hair covering left side form view. When she got back in the living room she saw that Max was, most likely in bed, and the lights were off. Dawn sighed and laid down after taking off her shoes, on the couch covering her self up and facing the ceiling, wondering what tomorrow would bestow upon her, and how Max's friends would react, to her.
~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~& ~&~&
The warm less sun shown through the window next to the couch and played across Dawn's face making her moan and roll over and cover her face from the sun. Slowly Dawn became awake and peeked out and frowned at the sun and the place she was at. 'Where am I?' She asked herself sitting up and looking around, and giving the sun a scornful look. She slowly swung her legs off the couch she was sleeping on and uncovered her self. She quickly slid into to her snickers and got up from the couch tucking her hair behind her ears. It then dawned on her; she was in Max's apartment.
Dawn quickly gathered up her things, not wanting to cause Max any trouble, she was going to leave. Just as she was getting ready to walk out the door it opened and in walked a fully dressed and fully awake Max. Max looked at her and then glanced at her eyes and raised an eyebrow. Dawn quickly looked down and let her hair fall in her face.
"Your up." Max said wondering how the girl had gotten such a nasty bruise and cut. "You know you should really get that cut looked at it looks nasty." Max said.
Dawn stood where she was and didn't move and didn't speak for a moment. Finally she shrugged. "It will be alright." She answered. "Thanks for letting me crash at your place last night, but I got to get going." Dawn said.
Max looked at the girl more closely and saw she was extremely tensed, and tired. "Stay a couple more days. Your tired." Max said. "There's even a little restraint down the street. Come with me, I have to meet some of my sibs there anyhow in a few minutes." Max said.
'Siblings. She has siblings.' "No I shouldn't." Dawn protested. Max looked at her and sighed.
"Dawn Zack didn't mean any harm last night, he's just, well, well guarded and suspicious of everything. He didn't mean to be harsh to you I'm sure." Max said.
"It's not your friend." Dawn mumbled.
"Brother." Max corrected her. Dawn only nodded. "Come and I'll by you breakfast while I'm there." Max said.
Dawn licked her lips she was indeed hungry. She was very hungry. She had hardly eaten anything since she ran away. She often wondered why she wasn't skin and bones about now. Finally Dawn caved and mutely shook her head. "Good come on, you can leave your bag here." Max said walking to the door. (Sorry if her character isn't exactly her.)
"No." Dawn said a little quickly which got her a glance from Max. "I mean, I just feel better with it with me." Dawn said. Max only nodded and walked out of the apartment with Dawn following behind her.
~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~& ~&~&
Dawn followed Max down the street her head facing down and her hair covering her left side. Her bag was placed on her back and her arms were crossed over her chest as she cursed the November weather. Finally Max stopped a little café and walked in holding the door for Dawn as she hesitantly walked in. Dawn looked glanced around and got some glances from people in the Café. Not knowing what else to do, she continued to follow Max toward a young woman at the counter were you order your food sometimes. (Forgot what is was called)
"Max." The young woman said. She had short brown and dark eyes.
"Gem." Max said and smiled softly at her.
"Who's your friend?" Gem asked indicating Dawn.
"This is Dawn Summers." Max said. "Could you get her a sandwich or something to eat?" Max asked.
"Um, sure." Gem said and started to make Dawn's food. Afterwards Max led Dawn over to a booth and sat down across from her.
"Maxie." She heard someone say from behind her. Max turned her head and smiled at her blonde haired brow eyed sister.
"Jondy." Max said. "Where are the others?" Max asked. Jondy shrugged and slid into the set, with out paying much attention to Dawn at all.
"Hey Gem! Get me a soda!" Jondy yelled and then noticed Dawn. She looked at her puzzled and wondered who the new girl was.
"What's your name?" Jondy asked.
Dawn quickly glanced up at her and then back down. "Dawn." Dawn whispered.
Jondy looked at her sister for an explanation. "Alec and I ran in to her last night. Thugs were attacking her. We saved her, and brought her back here." Max explained in one breath.
Jondy formed an o with her mouth to show she understood. "Does Zack know, or any of the others?" Jondy asked.
"Zack and Zane found out last night." Max replied. Jondy only nodded when a dark hair, dark eyes, dark skin woman walked in. "There's Tinga." Max said and waved her over.
"Hey sorry." Tinga said and immediately spotting a very quiet, very still Dawn. "And who are you?" She asked politely.
"Dawn Summers." Dawn replied.
Tinga looked over at her two younger sisters and Max only mouth she would explain later. Tinga only nodded before speaking again. "Well Zack said to tell you that we were now meeting in our office instead of here, so come on." Tinga said. Max only nodded and started to slide out of the seat with Jondy. (I'm not sure if Max would have an office or not, but since she was the one who sorta pulled this together it would seem like it)
"Come on Dawn." Max said. Not sure if it was a good idea to leave the girl alone with transgenic's who were a little bit bias against normal people.
Dawn finally raised her eyes and only nodded before following behind the three sisters who talked happily to each other. When they arrived at their destination there sat a blonde girl, another brown-headed girl, a dark haired guy, Zack, Alec, and Zane, and another black haired girl. The people who had been in the room before all looked at Dawn, Zack looked at her harder then the others.
"Who's she?" Asked a black haired guy.
"Krit, guys, this is Dawn." Max said.

Max looked over at the girl and slowly started to walk over to her, but quickly stopped when she saw the girl get in to a fighting mode. She looked puzzled at the girl for a moment.
Dawn didn't know if these people were here to hurt her or what, it was possible. Anything was possible for Dawn Summers. She looked at the too people with guarded eyes, and a tensed body ready to send punches if need be.
"We're not going to hurt you." Max said sensing something from the girl.
"I'm supposed to believe you?" Dawn asked and give a hollow laugh that was actually quite forced, anyone could tell. "Yeah right. How am I supposed to believe that? You could've been sent here to kill me." She said and mentally smacked herself for her big mouth.
"Well I assure you we weren't." Max said. She looked at the girl; she was young, no more then sixteen or seventeen. "I'm Max." Max introduced herself.
Dawn looked at her for a moment before letting her fighting stature disappear, with an exhausted stature. "Dawn." Dawn said quietly bending her head downward so her hat covered even more of her face from view. 'What am I supposed to do now?' Dawn asked herself.
"You should go home. It's not safe for a young girl like yourself to wonder alone at night in Seattle." Max said.
Sadness consumed Dawn. What home? She had no home, no family, where was she supposed to go? When Max saw she wasn't moving, and sensed the sadness around she grew even more puzzled about the girl. "I'm sure your family is worried about you." Max said. Dawn only shook her no, and then noticed she had dropped her bag. She slowly bent down and picked it, and slinging it over her shoulder.
"You're running away?" Max asked, even though she knew it wasn't her business.
"You could say that." Dawn said, still refusing to look up at the young woman.
Max and Alec exchanged glances. For some reason Max felt a connection with the girl, she couldn't explain it, but her heart reached out too her. "Then I'm guessing you have no where to go if you're a runner?" She asked looking the girl over.
Dawn shifted feet and shook her head. Like Max she also felt some kind of connection toward her, she also couldn't explain it, but it was there. Max took another step toward down and looked at her more closely. She could tell she was exhausted, and very tired. "Your tired, why don't you come back to my place." Max said and surprised her self more then Alec.
"No I couldn't, and besides I'm not tired." Dawn lied.
Max smirked. "Whatever you say, but I don't want to leave you alone here, so come on back to my place." Max offered again.
"No I don't want to impose." Dawn mumbled. 'I've done that to many ties already, and look where I am and where my family is.' Dawn thought bitterly.
"You wouldn't, now come on, before it gets any later." Max said.
"Your sure?" Dawn asked quietly, almost to quietly for the normal ear to hear.
"Yes." Max said. Finally Dawn nodded her head. "Then come on." Max said as her and Alec climbed back up toward the rooftops. Dawn looked after then and slowly started after them, wondering if this was a good idea or not.

Zack paced around the room anxiously. It had been over an hour since Max had left and he was worried about his baby sister. "Where the h#ll could they be?" He asked Zane. His blues eyes looking sharply at Zane. His blonde hair gently fell in his face. (I think you all know what Zack looks like. Isn't he a hottie, also?)
The brown-headed young man looked up at Zack from his article in the magazine he was reading. His hazel eyes looking coolly at Zack. (Just make up something for him) "Chill Zack. I'm sure she's fine. Alec's with her." He said.
"Whatever. There are still dangers out there and-" Zack was cut off as Max threw open the door and looked from one of her brothers to the other.
"What took you so long?" Zack asked.
"Well that's not the welcome I was expecting." Max said sarcastically. "Chill we had a little run in with some thugs, who were hurting a kid." Max said.
Zack looked at Max for a moment before nodding. "By the way this is Dawn." Max said moving out the way so her two brothers could see Dawn.
Zack looked at her suspiciously. "You brought her here? Max she could be part of them!" Zack said.
Dawn looked from Max to the blonde guy and then back at Max and back to the ground. "Part of what, if I may ask?" Dawn said.
Her small voice got the attention of all four Transgenic's in the room, Alec, Zane, Max, and Zack. Dawn looked from one place too another and wondered if this place was hottie heaven or something. "See she doesn't know anything! She's just a scared kid on the run from something." Max said.
"I'm not a kid." Dawn mumbled. Alec smirked from behind her, and the Transgenic's looked at her. Dawn cast her eyes downward and started to think this was a bad idea. 'See I'm already causing conflicts between them all. I'm nothing but trouble.' Dawn thought sadly, she still hadn't lifted her head up; it was still hidden in the shadows beneath her hat.
Zack looked at the girl through suspicious eyes, sure she didn't look like a threat, but she could still be one. "What's your name?" He asked gruffly.
"Dawn." Dawn answered softly.
"Dawn what?" Zack asked almost snappishly.
Dawn was silent for a moment, she wasn't sure if she should tell them her full name, but what the heck. "Summers."
"Come on Dawn, I'll show you where you will sleep for tonight." Max said leading Dawn away from the three males in the room and giving Zack a hard look.
When Max was gone all was silent until it was broken. "She doesn't look or seem dangerous." Alec said.
"There's still a chance she could be." Zack said, not wanting any harm to come to his family.

Max handed Dawn a blanket for her to use as she slept on her couch. Dawn hadn't said much, almost nothing, and she had yet to look so Max could see what she actually looked like. Max kept sending looks at her, and wondered if her lack of speaking had anything to do with what Zack had said to her. 'Honestly she's just a teenager.' Max thought.
"You can sit your bag down beside of the couch if you like." Max offered as she walked to her bathroom. Dawn glanced at her back and slowly slid her bag off her back and sat it down. When came back she looked refreshed and her face looked cleaner. Max noted that she was tense and most likely uncomfortable. "You can sit down." Max said. Dawn slowly sat down on the couch with her hands on her lap.
Max looked at her and wondered if she was ever going to take the hat off. "Well you must be tired, so I'll just you get some sleep." Max said and only got a nod from Dawn.
"Um.. Can I use your bathroom?" Dawn asked quietly.
Max smirked. "It's right there." Max said. Dawn nodded and left taking a brush from her bag with her.
When Dawn got in the bathroom she closed the door and flicked on the dim light. She slid off her hat and looked at the bruise and cut on her left eye that marred her beautiful complexion. She had gotten it from a previous fight, about a night ago. She sighed and took out her braid shaking her hair slightly to get it all loose, and to hang and frame around her face. She slowly started to brush her hair until all the knots where out and then grabbed her hat and excited the bathroom, her head down, with her hair covering left side form view. When she got back in the living room she saw that Max was, most likely in bed, and the lights were off. Dawn sighed and laid down after taking off her shoes, on the couch covering her self up and facing the ceiling, wondering what tomorrow would bestow upon her, and how Max's friends would react, to her.
~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~& ~&~&
The warm less sun shown through the window next to the couch and played across Dawn's face making her moan and roll over and cover her face from the sun. Slowly Dawn became awake and peeked out and frowned at the sun and the place she was at. 'Where am I?' She asked herself sitting up and looking around, and giving the sun a scornful look. She slowly swung her legs off the couch she was sleeping on and uncovered her self. She quickly slid into to her snickers and got up from the couch tucking her hair behind her ears. It then dawned on her; she was in Max's apartment.
Dawn quickly gathered up her things, not wanting to cause Max any trouble, she was going to leave. Just as she was getting ready to walk out the door it opened and in walked a fully dressed and fully awake Max. Max looked at her and then glanced at her eyes and raised an eyebrow. Dawn quickly looked down and let her hair fall in her face.
"Your up." Max said wondering how the girl had gotten such a nasty bruise and cut. "You know you should really get that cut looked at it looks nasty." Max said.
Dawn stood where she was and didn't move and didn't speak for a moment. Finally she shrugged. "It will be alright." She answered. "Thanks for letting me crash at your place last night, but I got to get going." Dawn said.
Max looked at the girl more closely and saw she was extremely tensed, and tired. "Stay a couple more days. Your tired." Max said. "There's even a little restraint down the street. Come with me, I have to meet some of my sibs there anyhow in a few minutes." Max said.
'Siblings. She has siblings.' "No I shouldn't." Dawn protested. Max looked at her and sighed.
"Dawn Zack didn't mean any harm last night, he's just, well, well guarded and suspicious of everything. He didn't mean to be harsh to you I'm sure." Max said.
"It's not your friend." Dawn mumbled.
"Brother." Max corrected her. Dawn only nodded. "Come and I'll by you breakfast while I'm there." Max said.
Dawn licked her lips she was indeed hungry. She was very hungry. She had hardly eaten anything since she ran away. She often wondered why she wasn't skin and bones about now. Finally Dawn caved and mutely shook her head. "Good come on, you can leave your bag here." Max said walking to the door. (Sorry if her character isn't exactly her.)
"No." Dawn said a little quickly which got her a glance from Max. "I mean, I just feel better with it with me." Dawn said. Max only nodded and walked out of the apartment with Dawn following behind her.
~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~&~& ~&~&
Dawn followed Max down the street her head facing down and her hair covering her left side. Her bag was placed on her back and her arms were crossed over her chest as she cursed the November weather. Finally Max stopped a little café and walked in holding the door for Dawn as she hesitantly walked in. Dawn looked glanced around and got some glances from people in the Café. Not knowing what else to do, she continued to follow Max toward a young woman at the counter were you order your food sometimes. (Forgot what is was called)
"Max." The young woman said. She had short brown and dark eyes.
"Gem." Max said and smiled softly at her.
"Who's your friend?" Gem asked indicating Dawn.
"This is Dawn Summers." Max said. "Could you get her a sandwich or something to eat?" Max asked.
"Um, sure." Gem said and started to make Dawn's food. Afterwards Max led Dawn over to a booth and sat down across from her.
"Maxie." She heard someone say from behind her. Max turned her head and smiled at her blonde haired brow eyed sister.
"Jondy." Max said. "Where are the others?" Max asked. Jondy shrugged and slid into the set, with out paying much attention to Dawn at all.
"Hey Gem! Get me a soda!" Jondy yelled and then noticed Dawn. She looked at her puzzled and wondered who the new girl was.
"What's your name?" Jondy asked.
Dawn quickly glanced up at her and then back down. "Dawn." Dawn whispered.
Jondy looked at her sister for an explanation. "Alec and I ran in to her last night. Thugs were attacking her. We saved her, and brought her back here." Max explained in one breath.
Jondy formed an o with her mouth to show she understood. "Does Zack know, or any of the others?" Jondy asked.
"Zack and Zane found out last night." Max replied. Jondy only nodded when a dark hair, dark eyes, dark skin woman walked in. "There's Tinga." Max said and waved her over.
"Hey sorry." Tinga said and immediately spotting a very quiet, very still Dawn. "And who are you?" She asked politely.
"Dawn Summers." Dawn replied.
Tinga looked over at her two younger sisters and Max only mouth she would explain later. Tinga only nodded before speaking again. "Well Zack said to tell you that we were now meeting in our office instead of here, so come on." Tinga said. Max only nodded and started to slide out of the seat with Jondy. (I'm not sure if Max would have an office or not, but since she was the one who sorta pulled this together it would seem like it)
"Come on Dawn." Max said. Not sure if it was a good idea to leave the girl alone with transgenic's who were a little bit bias against normal people.
Dawn finally raised her eyes and only nodded before following behind the three sisters who talked happily to each other. When they arrived at their destination there sat a blonde girl, another brown-headed girl, a dark haired guy, Zack, Alec, and Zane, and another black haired girl. The people who had been in the room before all looked at Dawn, Zack looked at her harder then the others.
"Who's she?" Asked a black haired guy.
"Krit, guys, this is Dawn." Max said.
