The Land Down Under

(Now i think everyone can use logic correctly and say that indeed only my charicters are the ones i made up. Made Up would be the key words)

Alex Rider was walking down the street. He is 19 almost 20 years old. He looked at the sky wishing that Jack had not died. She was like a big sister to him. He now had some tattoos that Jack would kill him for and he lived in Australia. The Land Down Under.

He was walking to the drugstore at the end of the street. He ran his fingers through his hair and walked in. He hated being in public sense people stared at him. He looked gruff but children loved him.

He picked up the usual grocery's and walked to the playground. He still wanted to get married. But Sab was in the car with Jack when she died. They both where killed in the incident.

Alex sat down and watched the kids play. They did not look scared of him at all. In fact one little girl looked fascinated with him. The little girl toddled up and said, "Hello. My name is Lilly what is yours?"

Alex replied with a smile on his face, "My name is Alex."

Lilly said, "That is a nice name. My mommy's name is Carrie. She is 18 years old. Daddy ran out on us."

Alex wondered if he absolutely needed to know all of this...probably not but he loved children.

A girl came up calling for Lilly. He assumed it was Carrie.

Carrie said, "Lilly! Come hear my darling!" Carrie picked up Lilly and smiled apologetically at Alex, "I am very sorry Sir if she bothered you."

Alex shook his head, "I love kids. She is very sweet. Keep her that way." He smiled at Carrie.

Carrie smiled slightly and walked away. She was a pretty Philippine lady. Alex watched her leave and then watched the other children. 20 minutes later Lilly came running back to Alex bawling her eyes out.

Alex picked Lilly up and asked, "Hey, Lilly, whats wrong?"

Lilly replied, "Some men are trying to hurt Mommy!"
