East Allegheny, Pennsylvania

June 1988

13 year old Emily Prentiss was walking down a street in the small town, her mother had been repositioned once again and this time Emily hadn't wanted to go with her. She had convinced her mother to let her go live with her Aunt Meg in East Allegheny, and she had agreed telling Emily that she would be allowed to live there as long as she was posted in the United States. Walking next to her was her step-brother Michael, when her father remarried two years ago he had come into the picture and Emily had liked him right away, they had become close quickly and they got along better than most kids who were put in that situation would. When Ambassador Prentiss had let Emily's father know of her plans he had suggested Michael go as well.

The two walked around, this town was the complete opposite if the hustle and bustle of New York, the last place she had lived. She saw neighbors gossiping & people laughing, she saw a group of kids playing hopscotch all 3 of them had the same sandy blonde hair. One of the kids looked up, a confused look on her face. Emily guessed it had to with the fact that it was odd to see a new face. In a town this small she assumed everyone knew everyone.

The girl stopped playing and walked up to them.

"You must be new in town, I've never seen you before."

Emily nodded

"I'm Emily"

"Jennifer" The blonde told her, Emily was guessing she was maybe 11.

"That's Michael" she said gesturing towards her step-brother. Jennifer waved at him.

"You wanna play?" she asked walking back over to the other kids she was with.

Emily looked over at Michael and shrugged her shoulders.

"Sure"

"That's Eric" she said motioning to the boy Emily guessed he was about her age. "And this is my baby sister Aimee."

"I'm not a baby!" Aimee said

Jennifer laughed "Sorry this is my younger sister, guys this Emily and Michael."

About an hour or so later two adults came out of the house they were playing in front of.

"Mommy!" Aimee ran over to the woman.

"Hey cutie pie, who are your friends?" she asked

"That's Emily and Michael." the small blonde told her mom.

The woman walked over to them. " You must be Meg's niece and nephew, Emily and Michael right?" she said.

Both of them nodded.

"Well, welcome to town, I can see you've met my children." she said

Again they nodded.

"Oh I'm Sue by the way, Sue Jareau, that's my husband Tom." she said pointing over her shoulder, he waved from the porch.

"It's nice to meet you ." Emily said.

"Hey Emily, we should head back, we told Aunt Meg we'd be back before dark." Michael spoke up

"Yeah you wouldn't want to get lost." said.

Emily had a feeling that the last thing that was going to happen would be that they would get lost but she offered up a smile and a small nod. The two waved goodbye and began to walk down the street. A minute or so later Emily heard her name being called. She turned around and saw Jennifer standing on the sidewalk outside her house.

"Are you coming back tomorrow?" she called

"Definitely!" She called back.

Emily wasn't sure how long they would get to stay here but she was going to have fun while she had the chance.

Yeah It's not my best I'm just trying to fill in the back story, the next chapter is back to 2006. Buuut I probably won't get around to it until after the Holiday weekend because we're having a huge cookout and I'm going to wicked busy.
