Its been two hours since we picked out our rooms. I decided to play on my laptop while Dalton and Brendan were off doing their own thing.

"Hey, what's up?" Someone asked. I look up and see Silver.

"Hey, not much." I respond.

He looks at my laptop. "What game are you playing?"

"Sims game."

"Oh, is it fun?"

"Kinda."

"Back on your home planet, what did you do for fun?"

"Well,I did a bunch of things that were fun."

"Like?"

"I don't know. Hang out with friends. Play video games. Stuff like that."

"Okay." There was a moment of silence. "Those two boys that you were with. Are they your friends?"

"Well, yeah. Actually, their my best friends. We do almost everything together." I answer.

"Do you have a family?"

"Unfortunately, yes."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't like them."

"Why?"

"I just don't. They try to control my life. And I'm pretty sure that if they could, they would tell me to stary away from Dalton and Brendan."

"But, don't you miss them?"

"No."

Blaze then walks in and says "Hi!"

"Hi."

She looks at us and asks "What are you two doing?" I shrug my shoulders. She walks up to me and looks at my laptop. "Can I play?"

"Sure, I guess." I hand her my laptop.

"What game is it?"

"Sims 2."

"Now what are you going to do?" Silver asks. I shrug and pull my MP3 player out of my bag. "What do you have in there?"

"I've got a DS Lite, a GameBoy Advanced, a drawing pad and some pencils, and a bunch of games to go with my DS and GameBoy."

"Why do you have so much in there?"

"I don't know for sure. I guess I don't trust my stuff with my family." I turn my MP3 onand a song I don't know or care about comes on.

"What do you know about me?"

"Umm... not very much. I just know your name and stuff. I also know that you're my age. Same with Blaze."

"What else?"

"Umm... not much else." I pull out my GameBoy and turn it on. As soon as the menu pops up, I start to play. And I begin to think. I thought Shadow was good. I thought he went to the good side when he got his memory back. "Hey, I thought Shadow was on the good side. How come he works for Eggman?"

"No one knows his true motives."

"Okay." I mumble. I look out the window and see that its starting to get dark. I look at the clock on my game and it says its 8:30. Its getting late.

Dalton walks in the room and sees us. "Hey, what are you guys doing?" He asks.

"I'm not sure."

He walks over to me. "What are you playing?"

"A game." He sits down next to me and starts to watch me. "Hey, where's Brendan?"

"Right here." Brendan says as he walks into the room.

"Hey, Brendan."

"What are you doing?"

"Not much. Hey Blaze, can I have my laptop back?"

"Sure. I'm done playing anyways." she says as she hands me my laptop. I exit off the game and turn it off.

"Sonic says you guys have powers. What powers do you guys have?" Brendan asks.

"I have telekinesis, she has pryokinesis."

"Pryoki-what?" I ask, very confused.

"Fire powers."

"Oh."

"I'm going down stairs." Blaze says, as she gets up and heads for the door.

"Same here." Silver says as he heads for the door.

"See ya." I say. As soon as they were out the door, I ask "Where were you guys?"

"Outside." Brendan says.

"Doing what?"

"Trying to figure out a way to get home." Dalton says.

"Okay. But... I kinda like it here." I mumble.

"Why?"

"Because my family isn't here."

Dalton sits on the bed next to me. "You must really hate your family."

"I know." I look into his eyes. They're filled with worry. "Hey. Don't worry about me. I'm fine." I whisper.

He gets closer to me and whispers "How could you hate your family so much?"

"I just do."

"Just remember this: I will always be by your side, no matter what."

I feel my heart skip a beat. "Thanks, same here." He hugs me. When he lets me go, I lie down on the bed and close my eyes.

"Tired?" I hear Brendan ask.

I nod and end up falling asleep.
