'Grrrrr.' I'll get back at you some way. Just you wait. Anyway, enter Skylar. And yes, the names of the blessed are dead
give aways to their parents. Just saying. Also... never mind. I'll tell you when we reach that bridge.

"Onee-chan! Are you up here?" Amie called as she climbed up to the second floor of her home. Up the stairs and at the
end of the hall was a room that shined darkness. Peeking her head in, she noticed her 'brother' reading under a desk
lamp. They weren't really siblings, they just lived under the same roof and had a sibling-esque relationship. It was kinda
cute at times.
Skylar seemed to be the broody type with how he looked. Black spiked hair that went EVERYWHERE except for a white
crest that hung down over one eye. He was only about eleven years old but he seemed much older mentally. Maybe it
was the older brother mindset. His features were still soft, but he was unnaturally thin. His smile was smug and his eyes
were sharp. He wore a full set of black clothing including long-sleeve shirt, socks, gloves, and a bandanna tied around
his neck. Even his shorts weren't safe as they had black pockets.
"What do you need Hikari-chan?" he asked with amusement in his voice. Her face turned red at the name. "I told you not
to call me that Kuro-baka. Yuki has dinner ready."
"Thank you Hikari-chan. I'll be down in a minoute." Amie huffed down the hall as Skylar placed his bookmark. The dark
boy couldn't help but notice Amie reach into her pocket for something on her way down. As he stood, the open back of
his shirt was clearly visible.
Meanwhile, Ian sat in his room with his plate on his nightstand. Ian lived in a separate house from the others and Suguha
was less strict than Yuki. Ian was still paranoid by the events with the archers. He couldn't get the thunking of the arrows
in the wood out of his mind. While he felt safer next to Suguha while she pet him (Yes, she did that.) [The ears!] A knock
came from his window.
Being the ever curious one, Ian couldn't help but open his window slightly. "Hey kid, I'm her to rescue you." A friendly
voice said. In front of Ian stood a dark-skinned boy who seemed four or five years older than him. His brunette hair was
cut short and his hands were huge mits of callous.
"Who are you? I don't need to be saved." Ian replied. The new boy gave him a strange look. 'Must be brainwashed.'
"The name's Beckendorf. You do know you are living with a monster, right?" The boy slowly nodded. "Should I be
worried?" 'Yep, definitely brainwashed.'
"Listen, there is only one safe place for kids like us and I'm here to take you there." Obvious concern shown in his eyes.
"Sure, where is it?"
"Manhattan, New-" 'SLAM!' Ian closed his blinds and went back to eating his dinner. 'Baka.' In the living room, Suguha
giggled. 'Kitsune-sama. Thank you for the great child.'
Skylar sat on his bed still enjoying the taste of dinner on his lips. A familiar knocking could be heard on his window.
Skylar openned his window to see a blonde boy floating two stories up. "And you are?" Skylar asked, skepticism
obvious in his voice and an eyebrow arched.
"A friend. I'm here to save you. You're in danger. You do realize that you are in the same house as two monsters, right?"
"And?" Skylar threw back nonchalant, slightly knocking the boy off-balance.
"They'll eat you or worse if you don't come with me. I know a safe place you can stay."
"Where?"
"Camp Half-Blood."
Amie was enjoying the last minutes of dusk when a voice came from her right. "Oh, are you okay?" A girl dressed in a
dress and apron ran over to her with worry on her face. "Oh, this must have been a really bad joke somebody pulled.
Don't worry, I can fix you," referring to Amie's tail and ears.
Amie stayed silent for a moment before asking, "Would you like to play with me?" The new girl smiled. "Of course, why
don't we go to camp?"
"Okay." Amie replied, her nievity shining through brilliantly. Amie held on to the new girl's arm before they ran into a tree
and disappeared in a puff of green smoke. A pure white fox cocked its head in confusion.

"How did this happen!?" Fang yelled, crushing his sake glass and flipping the table. He sat in the living room of Amie's
house with Ian standing diligently next Suguha and Yuki wept a mountain of frozen tears into her kimono. "How could I let
her run off like that!" Yuki wailed in between sobs. A set of beads were in a pile in her hands. A single glove with a large
ivory orb on the back sat in front of Fang while a flip open barber's razor was held by Suguha.
"Just let me go after them." Ian supplied. Suguha looked shocked. And punched, and slapped, and taken aback. "You
want me to let you walk into the one of the only places we can't enter so you can bring back the others?"
"Sure." Ian headed for the door. "How will you get there?" Fang asked. Ian replied by opening the door. "He'll show me
the way." At the porch sat the white fox from earlier.
