Wilhelm Wigworthy: Thank you, thank you… thank you I guess. The updates for this might not come too often as I'm working on nine multi- chapter stories and haven't got too many ideas for this. But I'm not giving it up until I've finished it. Thank you for your review and the follow.

Cookie05: Thank you, and yes it will continue.

LocalXmusicXjellybeanX: Thank you for the favorite and follow.

RHS25: Thank you, I'm so happy you do. Yeah, I was really trying to get that cliffhanger by the end good. I'm glad I succeeded. I have loads and loads to do in school right now so I don't know how much I'm going to be able to write then. After that I'm probably going to Norway but I'll try to get writing done there, after the holidays I'll have four weeks work- experience so my updates may be really slow but I'll try to write and update as much as I can.

Trenton Wilburton isn't my character- he's a character sent to me from LocalXmusicXjellybeanX. The rest of TDG's residents comes from the series of the dumping ground, I only own my characters and the plot.

And English is not my first language

Mike POV

"Mike?" Mo came out in the kitchen where I stood cleaning the bench early forenoon at Monday. It was late September but all of the kids' had today off school because of some meeting between the teachers in another town both today and tomorrow. I stopped cleaning for a minute and looked up at him to answer. "That old barn in the trees collapsed of the wind tonight. Can I take the wood from them for my treasures?"

Sometimes I would wonder what Mo needed it all for. But he didn't keep it all around the house or his room like he had in the beginning. Now he kept it all in the garage so I could live with that. And there wasn't anything I could do with the material by the barn. It was on our ground so it practically belonged to me- so I told Mo he could have it. He ran outside- where the weather was cloudy, yet still and without rain- despite the night's storm- winds

"MIKE" Mo came running not five minutes later, running the fastest he could through the hallway and into the kitchen where I still was. He breathed heavily from running and stuttered something I could barely hear, at last he took a deep breath. "There's a dead girl" he said. "Under the wood of the old barn."

I barely understood what he was telling me. But yet enough to understand that I needed to get out there fast. I let go of what I was doing and sped out the house and to the trees behind it. Mo followed me- but was so much slower that when I had kneeled down and removed some boars to reveal a girl laying underneath them, I reached out my hand and felt for a pulse.

"She's not dead Mo." I said and tried to remove all the boards. "But she's cold, unconscious and probably hurt… ugh, these boards are too heavy for me to lift. Mo. Get Johnny, Rick, Trenton and Bailey okay? I need some help." Mo nodded and ran away to the house again while I removed the wooden pieces I could. Soon the boys came running, and not long after, also the girls and Ashdene ridge's younger residents.

But there wasn't any time to think about that as I, Bailey, Johnny, Rick and the new boy- Trenton grabbed each part of the biggest wooden piece and together managed to lift it away- just as the girl- perhaps fourteen or fifteen years of age coughed and started waking up. A glimpse of fear came up in her eyes as she looked around at the group of us so I told the others to go inside, and May- Li to call an ambulance while I stayed with her.

"My name's Mike." I said. "Michael Milligan. Can you tell me yours?" The girl tried to move. "No, no, don't move. You might have hurt your back and if you have you might make it worse with moving. Does it hurt anywhere?" The girl hesitated.

"My hand hurts, and my foot, but it's alright. My name is Kenny, just Kenny." It crossed my mind that the gi… Kenny probably wasn't telling me the whole truth. Just one of the clues was a boys' name and "just Kenny?" didn't she have any last name? But I had to let it go and moved on with asking how old she was. "I'm fourteen." She suddenly lifted her hand before I could stop her and not tell her to move, and laid it towards her stomach. I asked her if it hurt but she just answered me no- and didn't give me anymore answers for the questions I asked to keep her awake until the ambulance got there.

Watching Kenny get lifted on a spinal board into the back of the ambulance I had a strange feeling, it was as if my gut- feeling was telling me it wouldn't be long until we met again. But I just shook it off and walked back into the house and the office where I slumped down in my chair and leaned backwards while May- Li sat on the other side of the desk with paper- work.

"Will she be alright?" I had been staring emptily down towards the floor for a couple of seconds when May- Li interrupted.

"Oh ehrm… yeah, yeah I think so." I stuttered. "She had a cut on her hand and her foot is probably sprained pretty badly. She also had quite a lot of cuts from the boards falling on her but- it's nothing deep so she should be just fine. She was lucky." I leaned further back in the chair. "I just have this weird feeling you know. It's like… it's like I'm going to see her again, and that'll mean something." I bit my lip.

"Maybe she'll end up here." May- Li smirked. I just smiled, chuckled slightly and shook my head.

"No. She's probably just some runaway that will be back with her parents before this day is over."

"You should probably go tell the others, they're in the living room and they were pretty worried." I stood up and walked out in the living room with May- Li after me. The residents were all sitting around the lounge doing what they enjoyed the most and- maybe it was all from what had already happened this morning- but for once none of them were fighting. They all looked up when I came into the room, I smiled slightly.

"Her name is Kenny, she's fourteen years old. And she's going to be just fine." Relieved sighs and laughs were spread in the room as I walked over to the boy who had arrived just a week ago and gotten Frank's old room- Trenton Wilburton. "How are you enjoying that book?" I pointed to the book about the Beatles I had given him- he was a big fan of them and that book had just been collecting dust in my bookshelf for the last thirty years so I figured why I wouldn't give it to him.

"It's great Mike- thank you so much." I waved it off- I had already told him about a thousand times that he didn't need to thank me- that I was just happy it was finally coming to any use so I clapped his shoulder and walked back to the office. I hate to say I did- but leaning back in the chair again and with feet on the table- I fell asleep.

"No Kathleen." I spoke to a social worker several hours later in the afternoon. "No we cannot take another child we're more than full already. No…" May- Li came into the room, I told her what was going on. And of course she got on Kathleen's side. We didn't have room for one more. But fact remained- if we didn't take this girl- whom I didn't even know who she was yet- she'd get chucked out on the streets with nowhere else for her to go. So at last I had to tell her yes and walked around the house trying to find somewhere we could put an extra bed.

When Frank first left we had moved Kazima to his old room. But it turned out she couldn't sleep when on her own and after just a few days we managed to get her to tell us. And she got to move back into Carmen's room. Since then the room had been empty until about a week ago when Trenton arrived, and only this weekend we had painted and put the colors he liked. So this room was taken. I walked through the hallway upstairs, in Carmen and Kazima's room it was already two living. And putting a girl and a boy in the same room so that left Faith, Floss, Jody and Tee.

Jody's room wouldn't work- her room was too small, maybe the best option would be Tee or Faith. And Faith had the biggest room so I walked over to hers and knocked the door. "Hey… there's a new girl arriving in… about half an hour… and we have no spare rooms. So… I wondered if it's alright if we'll put her to share room with you." Faith just smiled and nodded.

"Yes of course Mike. Who is she?" I shrugged. I hadn't got a name, not an age, not anything of why she was in care actually. And that was what I told Faith, and just as I was done I heard a knock on the door and rushed down the stairs and opened it. I'd have to tell the others about the new girl later.

Kenny POV

The care- worker that the hospital had called when I told them that there was no way I could go back to my parents. I had heard them talking, heard them say that if they made me go to a place like this maybe I could go back to my parents- or at least tell someone who they were in my own time. So here I was.

I had stitches and a big plaster on the back of my hand, my foot hurt by walking on it. It was sprained but I refused using crutches- walking would make it heal faster anyways so why wouldn't I? I looked around and suddenly recognized the place, this was the place the ambulance had arrived when I was sent to the hospital this morning.

I had told the doctor I had at the hospital I was pregnant. I needed to know that if Boo had been harmed in any way. The doctor told me that the baby's heart should just have started beating and took a sonogram. It was beating steadily and the doctor couldn't find any signs of that my baby had been hurt. I was happy for that of course- yet it was a part of me- and I was so ashamed of it. That told me that if the baby had been hurt and killed, maybe it would have been easier.

I shook the thoughts off. I loved my baby already and I had been so afraid Boo had gotten hurt. I was so relieved Boo hadn't so… I was just relieved right now, as I looked up towards the door in front of me in front of the social worker Kathleen was just opening and the man- Mike or whatever his name was opened the door and then stopped and stared at me.

"Hey… nice to see you again. Let me take your bag." I had managed to get my bag with me when I was sent to the hospital this morning so it hung on one of my shoulders. Mike grabbed the shoulder strap but I pulled away rudely, while fizzling to him not to touch my stuff. He just smiled softly and led me inside the building.

There were a few children standing in the hallway. A girl with long dark- brown hair stood by a corner with a boy with a big afro. A boy with brown hair and glasses was whispering so everyone could hear it to a girl with curly red hair that I was the girl from this morning. I felt a hand on my back and Mike led me through a door on my right and into an office.

"Sit down" he pointed with his whole hand towards a couch and I slowly sat down while he sat down in a chair and grabbed a bunch of papers and a pencil. Kathleen sat down by me so I pulled up so far towards the edge of the sofa I could without sitting on the arm support. They talked, and talked, and talked, and talked… I didn't listen too much. But I knew they were talking about me. At last Kathleen said goodbye for now and went out of the room.

"Come on. We'll go meet the others… or maybe we should let you put down your bag first. Come on, you'll have to share with Faith." Mike led me up a set of stairs and into a room wallpapered in some green- blue pattern and with different posters of bands and sports. "And this is Faith." Mike nodded towards a black girl, perhaps a bit older than me who sat on a bed with a magazine. "And Faith, this is Kenny. The new girl."

"MIKE" We suddenly heard. "You need to speak to Bailey… he's all over my stuff aga…" a boy with spiky brown hair came into the room and stopped in the middle of a word when he saw me, and then just stood there, his chin dropped and then he shook his head. "Hi… I'm Johnny, Johnny Taylor." I hesitated before taking the hand he held out.

"I'm Kenny, just Kenny."

"Ehrm… Would you want me to show you around? Let you meet the others… come on" Mike slightly pushed me while he thanked Johnny for doing it. And I followed him out the room and down the stairs to meet the others.

So that's it. There is a quite important A/N for all of my readers on my profile so… I'd say you need to check it out… I'll try to work at some other story now but I promise that I won't give up on any story I promise.

I have made polyvore- edits for both Kenny and Trenton, please check them out and tell me what you think.
