Chapter 2
Well, this is going fast ^_^ Maybe I'll get the story done soon and I can go to bed!…
The car pulled up to a large house. There were no lights on, and the windows were all shut. There were no vehicles in the drive way. Samantha continued chewing on her nails. Shin looked back at her and said "This is my sister's house. I want you to stay with her until I come back. Don't leave the house or anything, do you understand?"
Samantha nodded.
They walked up to the house. Shadows lurked in the darkness of the night, the cool air blew her hair around. Shin knocked on the door quietly. Samantha was nervous. Would she ever get back to her normal life? Or will her whole life revolve around this syndicate she had no part in? A woman came to the door. She had long brown hair and dark eyes. She wore a long black skirt and a white blouse. She looked like Shin, the same facial features and everything. "Shin! What are you doing here? I haven't seen you in forever!" she said wrapping him in a tight embrace. She stepped back still smiling. Her eyes drifted to Samantha. "Is this your girlfriend? What a beautiful young lady!" she exclaimed. Samantha smiled slightly, still a bit shaken up. "Myakka, you remember Spike and Julia?" he asked stepping in. He grabbed Samantha's wrist and pulled her in as well. "Of course! Some of the nicest people I've met. You can take lessons from them Shin, you're getting the floor all wet!" she said laughing. Shin took his trench coat off and hung it up in the bathroom. "Anyways, do you remember Julia and Spike's daughter that you cared for a few years? Samantha?"
"Why yes I do" Myakka replied. "This is her. The syndicate tried to kill her, to get back at her parents for betraying the syndicate" he explained sitting down. Miaka looked at Samantha again. She wrapped her in a tight hug. "I haven't seen you since you were in diapers!" she exclaimed letting go. "Miaka…"Shin began. "I didn't bring her here for you to get all emotional. I need your help. The syndicate knows where Samantha lives, I need you to let her stay here, if you can take her in. Just for a while, until the syndicate gives up looking for her. When the time comes, I'll come get her"
Miaka nodded, and so began Samantha's new life. Soon she would have a new identidy, and no one would know her…or the secrets behind her tainted life.
