"Oh this is just the last thing I need, a little theif from Oregon moving to a new place in Chicago." I said to myself as we were pulling up to the new place.

"Now Dannie, this is your new home. Good luck!" The driver who was my foster 'mom' from Oregon told me.

"Thanks Mrs. Lachance "I said as I was getting out of car with my backpack. Then she drove off and I walked in to my new 'home' aka St. Helens Home of the blessed or whatever...

"Hello! And welcome to your new home, Im Curtis" A guy with a tux, fedora, and black wayffer sunglasses greeted me.

"Hi." I managed to mumble, "Where do I put my stuff?"

"I`ll get some kids to help you, but first tell me a little about yourself?" Curtis asked

"We`ll I like blues music, and I`m about to turn 14 my birthday is July 18, 1952, I`m weird-" he laughed and cut me off, "Well Ive got some kids you might like there bout your age too! But whats your name?"

"Dannie Merter, so where do I put my stuff ?" I asked a little impatiently. "Well all the kids are at the park but I`ll show you your new room. Follow me..." He walked passed a door that was in the middle of the room then on each side of the door was another door. We went through the one on the left that said 10+ on it. Then walked up to the second story and there was one halway, I had the last door.

"Here you go, and dinner is in 3 hours, but you can come down anytime you like." Curtis said.

"Thanks Curtis!" I said, then found myself giving him a hug. "No Problem Dannie, Oh and your room mates are your age but the only ones, if you want I`ll send them up when they come..."

"Sure!" I said then he noded and left me to myself.

My room was small. You walk in and there and on the left is a cot, then next to the bed(cot) was a dresser with a clock and lamp on it. Also a walkway next to the bed. Then on the left of a door is a small closet.

I unpacked my bag, put all my cloths in the closet. Then as I was putting my sketchbook, books, and pencils in to the dresser i found a cool calender. Each month was a diffrent blues band singing and my month (July 1964) was Ray Charels. I hung it above my dresser. Then I hung my bacpack on the door handle.

When I was done I lay on my bed and starred at the celling. I dont know how long I lay there thinking, but it was awhile. That is untill i heard three knocks on my door.

"Yea?" I yelled sitting up in my cot.

"arnt you gonna open the door?" Came from the otherside, it sounded like a boy going through puberty, then a few seconds later another voice a bit deeper said, "Common El, shes not gonna open the door."

"Hey wait a second!" I said getting up and opening the door. There were two boys they both wore black converse high-tops, with black pants, and a white long sleeve shirt with a black tie, they also had black wayfer sunglasses on.

I tried so hard not to laugh, but I failed so bad, I shoulda got an award for that.

"I`m sorry, but you guys are... awesome! where`d you get thoose cool glasses?" I said after my laughing fit.

"The shop down the street..Well Curtis told us you were gonna turn 14 in about a month and that you were our new room mate" The taller one said.

"Cool, whats your name?" I asked, "I`m Elwood and this is my brother Jake, were the Blues brothers." Elwood explained, "Whats your name?"

"I`m Dannie Merter. And I like your last name, I love the blues." I said.

"Thanks, we like the blues also." Elwood smirked, "Cool, hey Jake, you talk at all?" I asked

"No I dont talk, i have a disorder." He said annoyed

"He`s grumpy cause he thinks were missing dinner, you gonna come down?" Elwood asked, "Sure!" I said then we headed to the front, dinning area.

It`s not the best food in the world, but is sure aint the worst! We had a slice of toast and some macoroni and cheese.

After dinner we went back to my room, I sat inbetween the brothers and we talked, I shared some of my past and they shared theirs. That was just the start to our amazing trio, and deffinatley not the end.
