Stepping off the crowded bus I took in the beautiful sites of the golden beaches and clear bright blue sea-waters. It was nothing like back home in Ireland or even at my Grandparents in Yabby Creak. The beaches were a lot cleaner than the beaches I was use too growing up, when I lived in Australia, they were breath taking. After taking a moment to appreciate the view I continued on walking towards a 'Welcome to 'Summer Bay'' sign which greeted me to the small coastal town. Nerves and excitement started to build up inside me, it wouldn't be long now until I got to see them. Knowing that I only had a short amount of time to locate and see the people I dying to see, I set off into the town with my small bag slung over my shoulder. Not having any idea where they lived or even where they worked, would be my biggest challenge. I hadn't seen or had any contact with them since I was nine, six years ago. It wasn't by choice I that I hadn't seen them or that I had lost all contact with them, my dad wanted me as far away from them and the Riverboys lifestyle as possible , so when an opening within his company came available in Ireland he took the job straight away. Two weeks later we boarded a flight to Ireland and have been there ever since, only coming back a few times to visit my grandparents.

Deciding that asking around in some of the local shops and diners would probably be my best option. I could kill two birds with one stone get a drink and try and find some information on the people I was looking for. I came across a small diner close to the pier that I taught would be a good place to start my search. It was modern with plenty of seats available at the many tables located throughout the room. The diner wasn't too crowded which I was thankful for, if the workers were rushed of their feet they might be less inclined to talk. There were two woman working behind the counter. An older woman with red hair that was in line with the bottom of her face was wearing a white blouse with an apron over it, her bottom half was hidden behind the counter as she served a man. The other woman who was younger in age had long brown hair tied in a high ponytail came out from behind the counter and went to clear the empty tables.

As I approached the counter the man being served collected his coffee to go and thanked the woman ''Thanks Irene'' she responded ''Your welcome Nate''. When I reached the counter the woman - Irene smiled at me '' What can I get you darl?'', ''An orange juice to go please'' I replied. As she went to get me my juice I decide she would probably know a lot of the local's and would be a good person to ask for information from. She arrived back with my juice the same time as the other woman came back from clearing the tables. '' That will be $1.20 please''. I gave her the right amount of change and then to ask her,'' I was wondering if you might know where I could find some people, I'm not sure of their address or where they work but I know that they live in Summer Bay'' , ''Course darl, I could try help you find them what's their name's?''. I sighed with relief when she answered, hoping that she would say yes and hoping even more that she knew them and where I could find them, '' Braxton, Darryl, Heath and Casey Braxton. If I could just find one of them it would be brilliant'' I smiled at her. At the mentioning of the Braxton's the other woman seemed interested. 'Hi, I'm Leah'' she introduced, 'How do you know the Braxton's? Taking this as a sign she knew them, or at least where I could find them I couldn't help the grin that spread across my face as I answered ''I'm their sister''.

A/NI started to write and upload this about 3 years ago. Then I started college and kind of forgot all about it, but recently rediscovered the files I had saved on my old laptop. Im going to teak it a small bit and continue to upload it. It will not follow current storylines and it will feature characters which are dead in the show. I hope you enjoy it and all comments are welcomed! :)
