The last chapter was a little sad, but wait untill you hear the ending.I already figured out where the characters are going to be in the story, and I'll include my favourites.

Chapter 5

Zira got to the train station at about 1o'clock in the morning. The weather was as bad as her mood. Rain showers soaked her, and she could feel the cold wetness through her clothes.

The train station was not what you would usually expect.It wasn't a large cozy building, with brand new technology, and loads of people.

It was a tall bright yellow pole, with a picture of what was supposed to be a train.There was an old wooden chair tied to the pole.It smelled as it was a hundred years old.There deffinitely was no roof over Zira's head, and she was the only one there.

"Should have gone at 3."She groaned as she sat down on the ugly chair.

Zira decided not to do anything, as it would too, get soaked under the cold rain shower.She had to wait 5 whole hours, before the train arrived, and when it did, Zira once again got soaked by dirt, and rain.

"Ticket please."A man stuck out his hand.

Zira pulled out the ticket, and the man ripped off half of it.

"Cabin 7 to the right.Its a 5 day trip, and food is provided."He jestured his hand, and Zira looked at the right side of the train.

"Is anyone else in my cabin?"Zira asked.

The man ignored her.

Zira went to her cabin, and placed her things there.She decided to go take a shower, as she smelled too damp.After taking the shower, she looked at herself in the mirror.If her parents sent out an article about a runaway child, with a picture of Zira, she would get caught in moments.She looked at her long silky hair.Zira didn't want to cut it shorter.But she knew that there was no other way.She cut her hair shoulder length, and decided to keep it down.She knew that all the pictures her parents had, Zira always had a ponytail.She needed one more thing.Contact lens.She would look absolutely different, and only her parents would ever recognize her.

"Those people who walk around the train all day, selling things, they might have contacts."Zira thought as she pulled on clean dry clothes.

The old ones were washed and were hanging on the opposite bunk bed.Zira lay down on her bed and relaxed.She was now safe.

Loud knocking awoke her from her deep sleep.

"Please be selling something."Zira begged the door as she opened it.

"Hi, I'm Mary-Sew, and I'm just selling things.Beauty products.Would you like to buy anything."

Before the lady could finishe her sentense, Zira asked.

"Do you have contact lens?''

"Uh..yeah, of course.What colour do you need?"

"Red."

"I need to know the exact tone."

"Blood red."

The lady handed her the lens which were on sale, and half price, so they ended up being no more than, 2 dollars.

"Thankyou."Zira said, and locked the door."She a real Mary-sew."

She took out a small mirror which was given to her on her 12th birthday.Its rim was decorated with gold and ruby hearts.Zira carefully placed one lens and then the other.It hurt for quite some time, but in about 10 minutes she got use to it.Now she looked totaly different.

Another knock came to the door.Zira opened it.

A boy about her age was standing in the doorway.He had spiked brown hair,with a bandana, and purple eyes.

"Hi, I'm Jonny."He said.

"Hello?"Zira said.

"I'm assigned to stay at cabin number seven, and this is it, right?"

"Yeah.Come in."

He placed his stuff on the other bunk bed, and sat down to relax.

"Hawai, sure isn't like my home town.People are brutal."He said.

"Trust me, I know."

''So, and who are you?"

"Zira.I'm from New York."

"Ah, they say its a busy city, are they right?"

"Pretty much."

"So, where are you going?"Jonny asked.

"China."

"Why there?"

"If you really want to know, you have to promise me something."

"What?"

"Not a soul should know about this."

"Okay, I swear."

Zira told Jonny the long story of her bitbeast, and herself runnung away from home.He didn't look surprised at all.

"Ha ha!I bet they're having a cow!"He laughed.

"Hm."Zira smiled.

"So this isn't how you look like at all?"

"Well, my hair used to be longer, and these are contacts."

They talked for a long time, almost until night time, and before Jonny fell asleep, he said.

"You can come with me to Europe, and then you're on your own."

I bet you didn't expect Jonny to pop in so soon, but there he is. Ha.
