Chapter 7
Zoey walked down the sidewalk at a peaceful pace, she sniffed the crisp air, listened to the birds, and watched a cat play with a butterfly. She loved days like this, it seemed that all her problems and worries would melt away. She looked at the beautiful light blue almost cloudless sky, it was wonderful.
" There's enough sky to patch a Dutchman's britches and than some." Zoey thought
She walked up to Aaliah's house and went in to see that Crystal was already there.
" Glad you could make it Zoey." Crystal greeted
" So what's going on?" Zoey asked
" Since the Blade Breakers are coming into town tomorrow, I thought we could have a sleep over here." Aaliah replied
" Great idea." Zoey said
That night the three girls played games like Monopoly, Uno, and Go Fish. They decided to go to bed early since they had a big day tomorrow.
" I hope they get here okay." Crystal thought
The night was clear, calm, and almost completely quiet except that crickets chirping in the distance. Zoey could faintly hear the river in the woods behind the house, the wind blew through the trees and through the blades of grass. Zoey loves the sounds of night, it calmed her down and helped her get to sleep. Zoey closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Zoey's dream...
Her feet pounded the ground leading her body through the dark streets, through puddles, and over curbs. But they still followed closely behind her. Her long black hair waved in the wind as she ran down the street, her golden eyes were swelled with fear, she had to lose them some how she didn't want to go with them. Her speed quickened a bit as she jumped over a trash can, but they still followed her. She was going as fast as she could, she howled a few times but the wolves didn't answer. She came to a turn and took it, she ran through a puddle and jumped over another trash can and around a truck, but they were non to far behind. Her amazing speed was failing her. She suddenly stopped as she came to a dead-end, she turned around, but they were standing right in her path, the adoption agency workers had her cornered!
She backed up but she couldn't back up any farther, the wall was right behind her. As they got closer she growled and bared her pure white teeth, but they weren't scared of the cat demon.
Suddenly someone or something pounced on them and clawed their backs, the workers ran off, Zoey opened her eyes to see Ray beside her.
" I see I got here just in time." he said
" Thank you Ray, I owe you one." Zoey said
" You don't owe me a thing." Ray said
Zoey looked at Ray's pure gold eyes and she looked down at the ground.
" What's wrong?" Ray asked
" I have to tell you something." Zoey admitted
" What is it?" Ray asked
" I... love you Ray." Zoey replied
But before Ray could say anything, Zoey heard ringing and awoke with a start, it was just Aaliah's alarm.
" Good Morning." Aaliah yawned
" Moring all." Crystal said
" Morning." Zoey replied
The three girls got ready and went to go see the Blade Breakers. They came up to a nice looking house and Zoey knocked on the door. Gramps opened the door.
" Dudettes good to see you again, come on in." Gramps said
The girls had a great time seeing the guys again, they talked, watching Tyson get hit every time he made a rude remark.
" So what do you want to tell us?" Zoey asked
" Well, we should tell them." Max said
" Tell us what?" Aaliah asked
" Please tell us." Crystal said
" We'll be living here for now on." Kai said
" What? How?" Crystal asked
" Gramps hit the lottery." Max replied
" This is great news!" Aaliah said
" There's more." Kai said
" What?" Aaliah asked
" Ray told us about Zoey's problem and we decided that she can stay here with us." Gramps replied
" You mean it?" Zoey asked
" We don't lie." Ray replied
" You guys are great." Zoey said
Zoey was so excited that she hugged Ray and gave him a kiss... on the lips! Ray fell over with a sigh.
" Yes! She did it!" Crystal said
" Is he okay?" Tyson asked
" He's fine." Kai replied
" She's an angel, I swear." Ray said
Zoey blushed " No I'm not." she said
" Come on girl, don't go and do that, the two of us have known about your crush on Ray for years." Aaliah said
" Oh, what about your crush on Kai, Aaliah?" Zoey asked
" Well... Uh... I do like him' I admit. it" Aaliah replied
Kai stood shocked for a moment " Now why a lovely girl like you like a common boy like me?" Kai asked
Aaliah blushed badly at Kai's sudden comment.
" I hate gushy stuff like this." Tyson said
" Shut it Tyson." Max and Crystal retorted
" Welcome couple number three." Zoey said
" Us?" Crystal asked
" Of course you've always liked Max." Aaliah replied
By this time Tyson left the room he couldn't stand it any longer.
" Ah, young love." Gramps sighed
