Chapter 1
It was just another cool march afternoon and Maura and Pax were sitting around the bank waiting for it to close so they could skate. While they waited Maura spun the wheels on here board and Pax was standing on hers staring into space. When 6 o'clock came they hid in some bushes till everyone left. The bank was on a road that had nothing on it but a rundown factory so they didn't worry about getting caught.
When they where sure everyone was gone the came out from hiding and started grinding rails, doing ollies and nose slides but then a cop drove up. They did not notice him till Pax almost ran over him. They both stopped and just looked at him not knowing what to do. "You know that skateboarding has been banned from the bank parking lot dot you girls?" he said to them.
"Yes officer," Maura said knowing that Pax did not know what to say or do.
"Now what are your names?" he asked.
"Don't we have the right to remain silent?" Pax said being confused as usual.
"Yes you do but your not going to court so it does not apply." He told her.
"Oh, well then my name is Pax Kidder and she's Maura Drew." She told the cop.
"Ok you two I'm going to take you home and tell your parents what you did." He told them. Then they got to the car. It was about a 20 minute drive to here house so she started thinking about what her parents her going to do to her. They hated her. They wished that she was never born. She was the oldest of 7 kids and to make it worse, she was the only girl. Then her thoughts moved to what was going to happen to Pax. Pax lived in an orphanage because her mother left her for dead in a bathroom. They spent all their time together sense they where the outcasts of the school. Their school was filled with preps and jocks that would always make fun of them because they where different. That was also the reason Maura's parents hated her. While she was zoned out, Pax started talking to the cop telling him how sorry they were for skating at the bank. They were lucky that the cop was one of the nice ones.
When they got to Maura's house her parents were already outside waiting for them. She could not figure out how they always knew it when she was in trouble. Her parents and the cop talked for a while and when he left to take Pax home, they started screaming at her like she had murdered somebody. She just sat there picking at her nails, ignoring them till they asked her if she understood but this time they did not ask her if she understood, they grounded her for two months and she had to do all the yard work. That really pissed her off because the yard work was her brothers' jobs. She stormed off to her room which was the attic but she didn't mind because she has a lot of room. The first thing was IM Pax.

When 1am came around, Maura sneaked out of the window and onto the roof she could jump from the roof to the tree house with no problems. A few minutes after she was in Pax came up the ladder with her board. "So what's your great idea?" she asked.
"I never said it was a great idea, it's just an ides to get us away from here." Maura told Pax.
"Oh well if it will get us out of here then it's a great idea..if it works." Pax said.
"Like I said knowing my mom and dad, they would call the cops on their own daughter."
"Yeah you're right, ok tell me your plan." Maura reviled the plan. It wasn't much but it would surly get them in a shit load of trouble.
