CHAPTER 2
Meeting for the first time


Patrick was trying to contact his boss, Lawrence Crock. Since Peter is with him, he couldn't do anything without six-year-old boy asking him 'why'.
It was starting to annoy Patrick. He said 'yes' when Richard asked him to take care of Peter only cause Richard gave him all of his money.
Patrick hated Peter. A Little boy was living with him for two weeks now and he punched him several times. Peter had a black eye and a few bruises.

"Code."

Patrick looked around the room to see if Peter is around.

"Bullet."

"What do you want Parker? I'm busy."

"Yeah, um, listen, boss, my brother left his son with me and-"

"How old is he?"

Patrick was a little confused.

"H-He is six years old."

"Listen Parker, I'm going to start training my younger daughter. You can bring me that kid so he could train with her."

"But why?"

Sportsmaster sigh annoyed.

"When he's going to be eighteen, he will be working for me with my daughter."

"AAA ok. Where and when I need to drop him."

"Take him to my base, and do it now. You've got fifteen minutes."

Patrick went to the living room where Peter was sleeping on the floor. He kicked him to wake him up.

"Get up! We're going out."

Peter was trying to stand up, but the pain in his ribs didn't help.

"Where and-"

"If you ask me 'why' I'm going to kick you again and don't say anything.

Peter nodded.

After sixteen minutes

Patrick and Peter arrived in Sportsmasters base.

"You're late."

"I'm so sorry boss but-"

Sportsmaster punched him.

"Don't you ever do that again."

"Yes, boss."

Sportsmaster then looked at Peter.

"Artemis! Get down here and meet your new buddy!"

After a while a little blonde girl with teddy bear. She walked up to them and hid behind her father's leg.

"You two got two minutes to know each other better. I and Parker need to talk about some things." Sportsmaster said and with Patrick left the room.

Peter was looking on the ground, he was very shy. He didn't know what to say or do.

"Hey..." A little girl said.

Peter looked at her.

"Hey."

"What happened to your eye?"

Peter looked at the ground again.

"Nothing..."

Artemis walked up to him.

"What's your name?"

"I'm Peter."

"Hi Peter, I'm Artemis and that's Tobby." She said hugging her teddy.

Peter looked at her again and smiled.

"His cool."

"Do you want to hug him?"

"Why?"

Artemis gave him a smile.

"I can see that you are scared and when I'm scared, I always hugging him. It makes me feel better."

Artemis gave Peter her teddy.

"Thanks."

Peter hugged Tobby, Artemis was right it made him feel better.
