The yellow cab pulled in front a building. Arella stepped out and looked at the windows challenging. They seemed to laugh in her face saying 'we stay here while you go away HAHAHAHA!'

"Fucking windows" her bird voice mumbled under her breath. She retreated to the back of the cab where the driver started to pull out her matching suitcases. She grabbed them from him and politely thanked him.

He pulled away while she walked towards the entrance. She entered the airport building, people lined up at the counter. A mother and her daughter were laughing having a grand time. 'must be her first flight,' she thought. She walked in line behind the mother and daughter.

"Who's gonna be a big girl and go all the way around the world to go she her aunt?" the mother cooed.

"I know! I know the answer!" the little girl's dress bounced up and down as she hoped on one foot, her blonde pigtails doing the same.

"Well tell me, because I don't know." The mother played along. The little girl giggled and answered,

"I am silly mommy." Her mother picked her up and hugged her tightly.

They seemed so happy together. Something she couldn't have with her mother. She tore her eyes away from the happy sight in front of her. Her eyes scanned the airport from the people walking, to the security guards, to the stores.

"Miss your next" the guy behind me tapped my shoulder. She blinked and looked at the employee waving her over.

"I'm sorry." She said and walked off to the employee. She had to be in her 30's. Arella handed her, her school ID and passport. The employee then took her bag and put them on the scale. She placed the stickers, and told her,

"Alright go right over there to security and your flight will be the first one on your right." Arella thanked her and left.

She made it through security without any problems, and was on her way to her terminal. She fixed the hem of her Avenge Sevenfold T-shirt and black skinny jeans while walking. Her black purse in her left hand and mix matched converse showed that she didn't belong here. Everyone walking around looking formal, and her in her normal attire she just didn't fit in. She never fit in anywhere she went. Memories started to crawl on the in her mind but she pushed the farther back in her mind. She took a seat outside her terminal.

She checked her watch 10 minutes left. She took out her iPod and a set of headphone from her bag. She started to play Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Green Day on repeat. She put one in her left ear and the other one dangled down she then took out her sketchbook and started to draw a sleeping guy 2 rows from her. She got the contour of him done when they started to board. She sighed put everything back in her bag and left to go board.

She got a window seat and got out her iPod again she didn't turn it on, yet. She also got out her sketchbook. Next thing she noticed was that the mother and her daughter got on. The mother scanned the numbers and nodded for her daughter to go farther down the aisle. She stopped in front of my seat.

"um, excuse me but would it be alright if my daughter sits next to you?" She asked nervous. Arella shook her head.

"No, it's perfectly fine." She nodded thanks back and had her daughter sit next to me, she strapped her in and told her to be good and that she'd she aunty when she got off. She handed the girl around 8 a picture. Arella guessed a picture of the Aunt. She kissed the girl good bye and she left the plane. The little girl had tears in her eyes as she watched her mother go.

"Hey you're alright. Look my name is Arella Huyu and I'll make sure you get to your aunt." The little girl looked up her brown eyes filled with tears.

"m-my n-name is" *sniff* "Searaya." Arella rummaged around in her bag and brough out a handkerchief.

"Here wipe your eyes. You have a beautiful name, did you know it means 'Celebrate the sea'? like I said I'll make sure you get to your aunt. Did your mother give you a picture of your aunt?" Her small hands to the cloth and wiped her eyes.

"yes I did know that and yes here's the picture." She handed the picture to Arella. It was a plump women in a Hawaiian top and blue jeans, in a princess hat. She had curly brown hair and pink heart sunglasses that matched the princess hat. "Mommy told me that aunty was going to be wearing this outfit."

"Don't you fret we'll find her. Like I said I'll help you find her." 'After all how many people in Japan look like that?' Arella thought with a reassuring smile on her face.

The spent the remanding plane ride, talking and laughing. Arella had gotten the plane attendant to get the girl some Swedish fish and a fruit punch drink and a coke for her. The played games like eye spy, tic-tak-toe, and making shapes out of the clouds. When the plane was landing Arella had said, "now wait a couple of minutes before getting off. We'll wait for some people to get off before us so we don't separate." Searaya nodded. A majority of people had gotten off and Arella helped Searaya unbuckle. She grabbed her bag and held on to the little girls hand as she went towards the front of the plane.

They got off and Arella already started to scan the crowd for Searaya's aunt. And there she was in the same outfit as the picture. Arella told Searaya to follow her. Arella cleared a path while holding Searaya's hand. As soon as the little girl spotted her aunt she let go of Arella's hand and started running. A man had been walking and hadn't noticed Searaya. He had knocked her over. Arella ran over to her and helped her up. The man hadn't ever noticed he knocked her over. She had a preety big cut on her leg. Arella made sure that Searaya was alright with her aunt before walking over to the man we happened to be talking on the cell phone. She tapped her shoulder and tapped her foot impatiently on the ground. He turn around and he pulled his phone away for his ears.

"Can I help you Miss?" He asked

"Yes I need you to apologize."

"Apologize for what miss?"

"You see the little girl over there hugging her aunt. Well, you had knocked her over and gave her a pretty nasty cut on her leg."

"Well I'm sorry, please pass on my word. I'm in hurry-. "Arella cut him off.

"Well so am I. either you go over there and apologize or I'll make you." He smirked,

"Ya, I want to see a 13 year old do that." And he turned his back to Arella. Arella grabbed the ear that didn't have the phone and she dragged him to Searaya, and turned his head to the 8 year old girl who was still crying.

"Now you have something to say?" Arella dared. He gulped and said

"I'm terribly sorry for hurting you I didn't mean it." She giggled and nodded. Arella let go of her ear and pushed him away. The aunt was smiling the entire time.

"Thank you Arella." Searaya said still giggling.

"No problem Searaya, that's what friends do right?" Searaya nodded. "well, I best be going. It was nice meeting you."

"Wait, Arella how will I talk to you again." She looked up worried

"Here," Arella dug into her bag and pulled out her least favorite locket and chain she wrote her number inside the locket and her name on the other. "Whenever you want to talk just call me and we can talk. Just make sure it's alright with your aunt." Her aunt nodded. Arella slipped the heart locket around the girl's next. The pink flower on it matched the shade of her dress. And she wiped the tears away.

"Hey don't cry I'll see you again if you want." They girl nodded and hugged Arella. Arella hugged the girl back and left waving good bye.
