Lev's POV

Chapter 5

Connor woke me up. I rolled onto my side.

"Go away." I said.

"You have to wake up now. It is the time for the AWOL's to get up."

I groaned.

"Did you sleep on my offered?" he ask.

"I did boss, I did."

"Well you get to work with Hayden and I and two other people." He said. "Welcome."

The Hayden walk in and said,

"Connor. Isabella is now freaking out. She said that she wanted to be unwind."

"Are you kidding me?" Connor ask.

Hayden shook his head. Connor put his head down and then looked up at me.

"You wanted to be unwind, and now you don't. Can you talk to Isabelle?" Connor ask.

"I can try, but I'm not sure if I will be able to change her mind." I said

"Just try to." He said, "Also Hayden meet our new partner."

"Welcome Lev. So you ready to deal with Isabella?" Hayden ask

"As ready as I ever be." I said.

So Haydon walk me to Isabella and said,

"Isabella. This guy named Lev, he wanted to be unwind, like you, but now he doesn't. He is going to tell you his story."

I nodded my head. Isabella made room for me to sit down next to her.

"Hello Isabella, my name is Lev."
"Nice to meet you Lev. Isabella."

"Nice to meet you too."

We shook hands and I began to tell her my story. After a hour or so, I finish. She looked at me.

"I don't want that to happen to me." She said.

"How old are you?" I ask.

"I'm 14." She said.

"Where are you going to work?"

"In the infirmary with a girl named Risa."

"Risa is a nice girl, but listen. If you ask Connor, you know who Connor is right?" I ask.

"He is the one who took me to the place." She said.

"Well ask him if you like to stay every after you are 17 to work with Risa."

She nodded and ask me a question.

"How old are you?"
"15." I said.

She hug me and kiss me on the cheek. I smiled. She got up and work over to a girl in a wheelchair.

I smiled and walk toward Connor office. I knock on the door. Haydon answer.

"Connor, it's Lev."

"He works with us now. Let him in." Connor said.

Haydon moved out of the way and let me in.

"Listen Lev, tonight we are going back out to save another kid. You can come with us or not."

"I'm coming." I said.

"It's danger. If people see you and recognize you, they will call the Juvey-cop."

"I'll be fine."

"Alright then." Connor said.

Connor left the room and I was in the room with Haydon. We began to talk and talk. After a couple of minutes, Connor come back and Haydon and I stand at the door still talking.
