"So where are you from?" Zoey asked.

I decided to tell her how I was born in the rainiest place in the world named Forks, Washington, to Renee Swan and Charlie Swan. How after a few months, my mom ran with me to Phoenix, Arizona, and that I lived with her there. That I would visit my dad every summer until I was fifteen, and then how we started just vacationing to bond instead of going to Forks. And then I told her how my mom remarried a man named Phil Dwyer, who was in minor league baseball. I knew that Renee didn't want to leave me when Phil left for baseball, but she was upset when he wasn't there. So I decided that I was going to move to Forks so that my mom can travel with Phil.

"And that's how I ended up there," I finished. "what about you?" I questioned.

"Well, I was born in Broken Arrow, it's not to far from here, and when I was four, my dad just up and left. So far years, my mom was pretty depressed, but she was still a mom to me. That was until she met the Step-loser." She said.

"Step-loser?" I wonder why she would say that…

"Yeah, the Step-loser. He's my step-dad. Though I don't call him dad at all. He is one of those People of Faith. Have you heard of them?"

"No, I haven't."

"Well there people who worship God and anyone who thinks differently than there beliefs are evil. He called my Grandmother a witch, and when he found out about my Mark, he called our family shrink and was also calling up the Prayer Tree." She explained, shivering slightly when she mentioned the shrink and Prayer Tree.

"Alright, so you said, 'until she met the Step-loser.' What happened?"

"She turned into the People of Faith." She said solemnly. I could tell that she missed her mom.

"So on that not-so-happy note, let's head down for class." Zoey said.

So we headed out the door and down to classes, and starting a new destiny.
