1 Week later
As she looked out the window at the moving scenery Kes thought about the last week. Right after she slit her wrists Kate came over and saw her on the floor bleeding. Which of course resulted in her calling 911 and her ending up in the hospital and her brother being called. She was glad they made her stay at the hospital because going home with him did not seem like a really great idea. To say the least he had been furious... the doctors had given her two choices- go to the mental hospital for a month or go to sme school called Horizon. She wasn't looking forward to being locked up with looneys and chose Horizon-either would be good though cause it would get her away from her brother and Rick...or so she thought

"Cliffhangers, I'd like to introduse you to our newest member of Horizon...Kes Relon. We'll have another boy to add later but he won't be here till later. Auggie I want you to be her first week buddy and Shelby you'll be Rick's buddy when he shows up. Show them around and let them know the rules and what to expect. To let them get use to things we are having group tonight, hopefully our other newbie will be here by then. If you have any questions you can ask me, Sophie, or anyone here."

"Thanks Peter", Kes said shyly.
After Peter leaves the group introduces themselves. Or rather Auggie introduces them.
" The big guy over there is Scott-him and the girl over there, Juliette aka Jules are going out, the freakin over there is Ezra, the goth lookin girl is Daisy, the sarcastic lookin one is Shelby, and as Peter already said I'm Auggie. Welcome to...."
" the land of losers, the land of freaks, the place where the trash is thrown to hoping it will become beautiful butterflie or some crap like that," Daisy finished.
" Yeah that's one way to think of it I guess...course don't let Peter or Sophie hear ya say that...remember last time?" Ezra commented
" Of course I do. I had to wash the dishes by my-self and listen to a lecture on not lowering mine or others self-esteem. The same kind of shit I always hear."
Auggie wishpers in Kes's ear "Don't worry...you'll get used to this weirdness. It's always the same." Out loud he said " How bout I start ya on that tour I'm supposed to give?"
"Um okay," Kes replies while trying not to blush.
