Camry cautiously approached the girl.

"Hey," she said, "Are you alright?" A small groan issued from the small form lying amid the thorns. The girl rolled over to face Camry, who gasped.

"Oh my God!" The girl's face was riddled with bruises, and cuts. And, from the strange angle at which it was lying, her arm appeared to be broken.

"Oh God!" Camry cried, "Are you ok? We have to find a hospital for you! Gryffon, help he carry her!" The girl shook her head.

"I'm ok, I just needed to sleep. I didn't think that anyone owned this land. Sorry. I'll leave," the girl muttered.

"No, wait!" Camry said, as the girl got up to leave, " We don't own it either. Listen, we have to... what the..." Camry stared as the worst of the cuts and bruises started to heal themselves. The arm, too, fitted back into its rightful place. "Are you a mutant?" Camry asked. The girl gasped.

"Oh, I'm sorry!" she cried I didn't really realize that I was, I mean, I don't really mean to, but I do... and..." she burst into tears.

"It's ok," Camry said, "Were mutants, too, both of us. Don't worry. Hey, are you with anyone." The girl's tears stopped, and she shook her head. "We're going down into the states," Camry said, " Want to come with?" The girl smiled slightly. Camry saw that she wasn't as young as first glance told. Maybe about fourteen.

"I'd like some company," the girl said, "But I don't want to impose..."

"Nah," Camry told her, "Me 'n' Gryff could use the help." The girl smiled again.

"I'm Dylan, by the way," she said, "But people call me Birdie, because of my mutation."

"Huh?" Asked Camry, "But you can heal you self. What does that have to do with..."

"I can fly."

"Oh," Camry said. "I'm Camry, and I can breath underwater. The guy over there is Gryffon. He can grow and shrink in size."

"Cool," Birdie said. The two girls smiled at each other.

And two becomes three.

Author's Note: Ok, the first two chapters were introduction chapters. In the next chapter, the plot will begin to form. I promise.
