Chapter 1:
It was around midnight and three kids were walking through the city. The oldest of them, a girl, walked at the front dragging the youngest, another girl, behind her. She looked back signalling the third of them, a boy, to walk a bit faster. "Jude, we are all tired but we have to keep walking!" she yelled. Jude walked faster and quickly caught up with the other two. "Isabel can't we find a place to stay? Magda is falling asleep!" The youngest girl looked up with sleepy eyes "Please Isa?" "Sure" Isabel sighed. She spotted a big building a little bit ahead "Jude do you see that? Let's see if we can stay there."
A few minutes later the three stood in front of the building. They slowly walked in. When they were a little while in a fence dropped in front of them. They turned around to get out of there but A fence fell there too.They were trapped.
"Hey what is going on here?" Jude asked. "That's what I'd like to know, "A voice said, "Who are you?" "I'm Isabel" Isabel said, "These are my little brother and sister Jude and Magda. Who are you?" "My name is Salene" The voice said, "What tribe do you belong to?" "We don't have a tribe! Now tell me, why are we trapped? We didn't do anything wrong! We were just looking for a place to stay!" The girl called Salene stepped to the front, she seemed nice enough, "It's for security. You'll have to stay in there until me and my tribe discuss this." "Can't you just let us out? This is so st." Jude complained but he didn't get to finish his sentence because Isabel smacked him on the back of his head. "Shut up" she said firmly and then turned to Salene, "We'll wait" Salene nodded, "Good, I'll come back later." She disappeared back into the darkness.
Isabel leaned against the back fence. She pulled Magda close to her. "I'll take care of you." She said, "I promise" Jude walked over to them. "You said that before" He said softly, "look how well that worked out." Isa sadly looked to the ground.
*Flashback*
"You won't be able to take care of them by yourself, Isabel" Isabel looked at Leo angry. "Yes I will!" She yelled, "I always have!" "You have got to be kidding me Isa" Leo chuckled, "You are nothing but a scared little girl." "Get over yourself Leo" Isa snapped, "What do you know about taking care of little kids? Nothing! You have always had your parents to yourself! You always had two of them!" She said on the edge of falling into tears. Leo looked at her shocked. "I had was a father who always worked! A mom with her name on a gravestone since I was nine! I always had to look after Jude and Magda. So don't you dare tell me how to take care of them!" She looked at him one more time. She turned to her brother and sister, "I promise I'll take care of you"

Isabel looked up, "I do my best Jude" She said weakly. Salene came back, "You can stay for now"
