The once blue sky had now turned a shade of gray. The many clouds threatening rain. The soft rumbling of thunder began. The wind blew her hair back.
Natalia. She had no last name, no family, no place to go. She had nothing but the clothes on her back and the little provisions and few belongings she had in her bag. She quickly walked down the sidewalk and stopped at the gates of what appeared to be a mansion.

"..." Natalia's eyes darted around "... a home"
