When I got to Thorck Ave. it was 6:50pm. All I could think about is dinner. I finally found Rue's house. Rue's house was grey with a blue roof. It looked new. When I rang the door bell someone tall answered the door. It was a woman. She had the same color hair as Rue. Blonde and the same color eye's as Rue. Brown. "You must be Cathy's friend." Said the tall young women. "Um…no….." I heard someone coming down the stairs. "MOM!" I saw Rue pushing her to the side. "It's okay. I got it." Said Rue panting like mad. His mom looked at me then back at Rue. "Sure…" said Rue's mom walking away. Rue looked at me. "You got the bread?" asked Rue. "Um yeah…your last name is State right?" I asked nervously hoping that I didn't get someone else's loaf of bread. "Yeah." I sighed in relief "Well…bye." I said picking up my book bag. As I went down the path I heard Rue running to me. "I owe you, Jet." Said Rue looking down at the ground. "I'll remember that." I said. Rue looked at me. "You're hard to understand." Said Rue truthfully. "I get that a lot." I said. While walking to my bike. As I get to my bike I nod at Rue and start riding. "YOU'RE A GOOD FRIEND JET!" said Rue shouting. I wave. It took me ten minutes to get to my house. When I get near my house I heard some thing interesting. "She needs to leave." Said one voice. "Who?" asked the other. "Jet Clay." I stop my bike. What? I hide in some bushes so they couldn't see me. "She's going to ruin everything." Said one voice.
"What do you think we should do?"
"We should test her abilities."
"How?"
"You'll see."
"But the guardian would never let us close to her..." I hear a slap. "You idiot! Don't say it so loud. Do you want us to get killed." "No…" "Good. Well talk more about this in the labyrinth." As I here them go into the house I wait four minutes so they couldn't hear me. What do they want with me? I only started living here. I look at my watch. 7:00pm. Shit! I got on my bike and speeded to my house. When I made it there I saw the porch light on. I saw Harry sitting on the porch bench reading a book. Harry lowers his book. "Late aren't we?" said Harry. "You think." I said. "Come in. You can leave the bike in the drive way." Said Harry while going in the house. I go in the driveway, drop my bike and went in the back kitchen door. I saw Debby waiting for me, hugging me when I first come into the door and seating me at the table then seating herself. I saw Harry seat beside me smiling at me while Loon, out of no where jumps on my lap. As I stair in front of me I see a hot, not cold, plate of pasta. I hear Debby talking about her day including the incident with officer Shinx. I look down at the floor. I felt something in my chest. A harm feeling. The one when you feel safe. I look up. I see smiling faces. A family. I see a family. I was finally happy for once in a long time.
