When Asha Brown moved into 14 Bannerman Road, no-one expected the things which happened afterwards; but that was a usual day for Sarah-Jane Smith, Clyde Langer, Rani Chandra and Luke Smith. But even they didn't expect it, which made things a lot more interesting…

Luke's POV

The day before school started for the new year and Clyde, Rani, Mum and I had sent the Krafayis (the retarded griffin/chicken alien from Vincent and The Doctor in 2010) back to its home planet.

"Sarah Jane- since when was there a new family moving into the Brown's house?" Clyde asked, looking outside of the window. Mum and Rani went over and looked outside.

"I don't remember there being a 'for sale' sign anywhere." Rani said.

"Well let's have a look." Mum said as we headed to see who was moving in.

Asha's POV

Leaving Cornwall was hard. Though I had been there for only two months, I had grown to love the scenery there. Now I had to get used to my new life. With my grandparents. It was good seeing them again, I hadn't really seen them since they went to Australia, my old home for Christmas two years ago. I don't miss the Australian heat though, England's cool weather was so much better.

As the taxi came up to 14 Bannerman Road, I saw the furniture truck in the driveway, and on the other side was a group of four people: one woman who was in her late forties-early fifties, and two boys and a girl who were about my age. I could tell that none of the teenagers were related. But I didn't want to deal with neighbours. Not now.

"Nan! Pop!" I exclaim as I jump out of the taxi and hug Pop first. He holds me for a while, making my walls slip and the tears roll down my cheek.

"Hey, Asha. It's alright. You've got us, I know it's hard but we'll help you." Pop whispers in my ear as he lets me go to hug Nana.

"Can I see the house?" I ask. I look out of the corner of my eye and see the group that came out of 13 Bannerman Road start to come over. "I don't think I'm ready to meet any neighbours Pop."

Pop looks at me and tells me that the teenagers go the school I'm going to start at tomorrow, and are in the same grade as me. Form, I should say; that's what they call it in England, have to remember that. Nan nods and lets me in the house to let me unpack.

Rani's POV

The girl quickly went inside as we approached the Brown's house. Mr Brown saw us and nodded to us as he took of his golf hat.

"Ms Smith. Rani, Clyde and Luke. I'm guessing you were wondering why there was a furniture van outside of our house? My granddaughter moved in, but she's going through a hard time and didn't want to break down in front of anyone. But she's starting school tomorrow, so I was wondering if you three would help to class and walk to school. She's a lovely girl but she might be resistant to talk at first." Mr Brown told us. Something must have made Mr Brown's granddaughter upset. But it was good that there was another girl in the street.

Asha's POV

I went to my room was looked out the window to see Pop talking to the neighbours I was guessing he was talking about me; of course they were wondering why, it was normal for the new kid on the block to have people ask questions. The dark haired boy looked up at the window and waved. I quickly moved away from the window so none of the others could see me. I don't know why I didn't want to be seen. A wash of pain went to my forehead and I bit my lip. It quickly left me but I had a feeling that there was something going on. But the good thing was; I already felt like this was a great place to live.

Luke's POV

I looked up to the top window and saw a sandy haired girl looking back at me. Knowing that it was Mr and Mrs Brown's granddaughter I waved to her; but when I did; she instantly moved away from the window.

...

"I don't think she's a people person." I say to Mum as I put the dishes in the dishwasher.

"What makes you think that?" Mum asked. I shrug my shoulders. "I don't know. She moved away as soon as I waved to her."

"Well, you'll get to know her when you take her to school tomorrow won't you? Now off to bed." Mum said she turned the light off in the kitchen.

This is my first Sarah Jane book so please let me know what you think! Also can you give me a few different aliens for the first enemy in this fanfic but I want them to control things. So please let me know! And I apologise to everyone who has read it when there were no paragraphs. I don't know how that happened when I put it up.
