Sneaky Crab

The only character I own is Claire my OC I'm sorry I snuck in an OC character even though there is no OC but I just thought having an OC character would help out and having an extra friend for Scarlet would be nice. I hope you like my original character Claire in this story as well..

I went to my room. I started packing for my friend's house. I was so excited about a slumber party over at her house. I never had a slumber party before I'm guessing it's a human thing I heard of sleepovers but not a slumber party I guess it's the same thing what should I take? What do we do there? I didn't have any other friends to let me ask about how these things happen and how slumber parties work I was only a little girl about three or four, so I didn't quite understand, but it was my first party, so I was pretty happy about that too for my age. I also had a lot on my mind. Selena gave me an offer to come stay at her house and live with her not to live with my father or brother in one hand. I enjoyed the idea especially to stay with my teacher, but it was weird. Why would my teacher want me to stay with her, Father loved me but my brother didn't it was understandable I wanted a chance for a new life being blind was different for me. It was harder for me as well, but maybe I could be my person maybe I could be anything else this was a big decision that I'd have to make and I was pretty nervous I think Mom

I mean I think Helena sent me here Lena sent me to sit with Claire and her family so that Mom Dad and Helena can help me make a decision They

went over to Helen's house to Miss Lena's house, and my brother was left home by himself.

I was so happy that I was going over to see a new friend and my father was going over to hang out with Miss Lena. That's overnight for a short period walk me over to Claire's and then they would go and I don't know hang out in the woods or something and talk about my future it was up to me though. Do I want to live with her or not part of me wanted to I didn't want to stay with my brother not after what he's done to me 1 million thoughts ran through my head at once, being raised by my teacher to be officially adopted by her is that possible? I was excited but nervous at the same time what would life be like living with her? I would like to be like Oh my young life before this I lived with my father and brother's mother before but she left us. Father thinks it's nice. He thinks it'll be great for me to have a mother figure to live with, he told me he wouldn't be able to take care of me and he doesn't trust my brother frankly deep down. I don't trust him either. Trust is hard to learn and hard to earn. I don't know much about it since I'm only like three, but I could understand it if I try, but I do trust Miss Helena, and Miss Lena, so I think I've made my decision. I think I will stay with her or live with her but I'll give them my choice later right now I get to have a great time at my friends' house and with her family.

We walked per baby for about five minutes until we got to her house. She didn't live that far inside of Ravenswood which is the town that I live in. That's the name of the town I live in by the way tell a live in is Ravenswood. I'm sorry I didn't mention that earlier in Claire only Linda five minutes away so it wasn't a very long walk. The town doesn't have a whole lot here. There's a river running through the town which my father likes to use for shit for fishing but lately, he doesn't do a lot of it because he's been ill lately because of his drinking, but he still goes out and fishes as much as possible, he tried to get my brother to go but he always refuses to go fishing with him. That was before he tried to hurt me now he doesn't want anything to do with my brother which I don't blame him my brother caused by accident, so why would he trust him neither does Miss Helena Lena does not trust him at either Selena and New Zealand are the same person. She doesn't mind me calling her one of each one interchangeably at times there are also woods behind my house I like escaping there. Sometimes it's quiet and peaceful, or in the gardens at the bench not sit there and think. I know a lot of the kids in this town. I don't know them personally, but I know some of them living in a small town makes things a lot easier for me and it's quiet which makes me feel better I guess but I would like to see a bigger city one day, maybe like RM Hala or places like that the merchant city that was what arm Hala is is the merchant city home to the merchant city union is the largest shopping capital of the world, Valencia Valencia I'd like to explore it one day, but being in a town like this, there's no way I could father says why do you wanna go there my sweet one I told him there are all kinds of shopping opportunities there and I've always wanted to be there. Also, I always wanted to live there even though I'm only three a bigger city would be amazing to see.

so I hope my dream will come true one day

We finally arrived. Claire's house was not like mine. It was bigger actually because they had more children. Claire is the same age as me and she has a lot of older siblings. I think she has two older brothers, and one older sister, who's just a year or two older than her, Claire's mother came to the door. Oh, it must be Scarlet and Kane. Good to meet you too. Mrs. Jones is your daughter there. Yes, you all are just in time. Claire's mother said all right. Then I was a little nervous but happy too. I got to see how humans lived and I was so thrilled to be inside a house, with so much love and care unlike my own, but if I was a shirt to be with Miss Helena, I would be able to come and visit Claire anytime I want it I'm doing it in the secret seat so that my brother wouldn't know but I will eventually be coming here more often. Hopefully, this won't be the last time.

Luckily, this was the weekend and we could stay up so the party would be fun. Be good my sweet one he assured me I would, you know me I don't get into trouble I know he says Pat me on the head. Take good care of my daughter oh, we will don't worry Mr. Ignace that we will be very honored and we're glad that you invited us. We are glad that Claire invited her to come to stay over. Claire doesn't make very many friends and if I can tell that your daughter doesn't make a lot of friends either this will be a great experience for her, and will take care of her because she is blind, but we will not limit her either.

Come on we will show you upstairs to Claire's room. Thank you Mrs. Jones and I'm so grateful for you to have me over. I'd like to make this a very wonderful experience for me. We want you to meet the rest of our family We want you to think of them as family as well that would be great and I'd be honored. We don't want to just call us the Joneses or Mr. and Mrs. Jones or the kids by that way and she told me to introduce the father of the family first this is my husband, the father of Claire, the guy who Claire was talking to about that you lied a lot about your age your injury yes nice to meet you Scarlet he says shaking my hand and I am Joe I guess y'all have very human names I said well we are human, Claire's mother said, and I am Julie do all of you have well I guess not all of you have J names because Claire doesn't nope my oldest son, Jack, my next oldest daughter, Julianne's, and my next oldest daughter, her youngest daughter close to Claire Farah you don't you only had four kids we did and your father only had two and you know Claire Claire hugged me Scarlett you came we're going to have such a great time.

The night is Young and we will have a great time partying tonight. No girls you're only three of course Mother When I do say it's bedtime it will be bedtime but we don't have school No but you are toddlers so you can party until it's time for bed eat dinner and do a few fun activities.

Being from the human world, they brought a lot of artifacts from the human world with them. Lots of games and toys and a lot of their food. They were strange, but delicious types of different kinds of foods to try, but they also had a lot of Elysian foods that I enjoyed. What's the net ping roasted nice delicious herbs in Griffin, eggs sandwiches, which were delicious father never made griffin egg sandwiches probably because we could never afford it. I tried a little bit of everything that they offered me and then the sweets and then when there were so many delicious different kinds of foods to eat they even brought some chocolate even the chocolate was rare they ran it from, Claire's mother made a delicious NOAA bread that was made with chocolate covered was chocolate covered and had the licious sprinkles on it and the chocolate was my favorite part. I love chocolate and Claire is now good because I like chocolate to Saint Clair the chocolate is so rare nowadays that we have to sneak it from home when we come, but getting more of it is rare.

Sometimes we go to the Arab portal and get food from there but we only get drawn once because we don't have the next eight to spell so we only get to draw once in our lifetime. My parents did at least once for each of them my older sisters and brothers also have drawn. I haven't gone yet cause I'm not old enough to go, and nothing has piqued my interest in wanting to get anything yet. Do you think you'll ever draw from the arrow portal? I don't know I said I don't know for sure if I will or not. We'll have to see. I played with Claire's toys. She had a good amount of toys. Her house was amazingly nice eventually it was time for bed and we all had to go to bed when Claire's mother said, So

I hope we get to do this again, one day again me too we will be best friends I said that before would be best friends forever Claire, nothing gonna change that ever.

We woke up to Claire's dad cooking breakfast Girls time to get up all the others were awake Now it's your turn it was time to eat breakfast. Luckily it wasn't a school day. I was gonna be picked up by my father. He's coming to pick me up and wants me back home and mow did you have a good time I did thank you, ma'am. Oh you're so polite Scarlet you all are great people and I enjoy it and I can't wait to come back and visit more often and we can't wait to have you come back over.

Please come back and visit soon. OK OK, I will. I got the things together that I brought and left with my father. Did you have a good time at your friend Claire's and Dad's and have you decided where you want to live I have. I made my decision. I said I'm going to live with my Helena with Miss Lena but I need to pack first. Of course, we will help you with packing. I was going to do it without my brother noticing I asked That was gonna be a problem hit minute, my father never always usually figures out something I'll figure out a way to get rid of the soul for the moment, and then we will figure out how to get you living with this Helena OK Don't think that my decision says that I don't love you father because I still do of course and I'll try to visit as much as possible to visit you please do or if I can't come visit you you can visit me we won't live far I don't think Even if you do and you can't come to see me much it's OK to.

We made it back to the house. The rest of my things were packed. Helena must've done it before we got back she must've gotten rid of soul someway somehow your back iPad even though I didn't know your decision if you choose to stay on pack your things, Scarlet I made my decision, Miss Lena I chose to live with you, you did it how wonderful don't worry will visit your father or your father to visit us any time we're gonna be a family I have the adoption papers and I have a pen I'll just make my signature glyphs of course just write your signature and I will adopt her right out I have seen it any trouble is it no of course not if it was, I wouldn't be suggesting this, so I need the paperwork. I was now officially how old the child at least do adoption with some assistance My father carried our things to a little house that wasn't that far down the road I have everything else will need here but don't be a stranger you either and I'll make sure Scarlet sees you as Nana as much as possible Kane thank you. No, let's get settled, shall we? May I come with you to find to help with her room of course I already got most of it set up in color and everything Scarlet will need besides, the thing she just brought let's get her things settled in and she'll be settled the quicker. She gets to stay here the quicker she's away from her brother in the quicker. She wouldn't have to spend the night near him and him for her to be manipulated by him and also so he wouldn't hurt her, I still be punishing my no good son of course how do you discipline soul is no opinion of fine. It's no concern of mine either.. the only time I discipline him will be in school. Unfortunately, Scarlet will be still seeing him in school but I can't do anything about that right now. Of course, you can't and he'll probably try to hurt her during school hours but I will make sure that won't happen. I went and sat down on my new bed. It was just as comfortable as the bed at home only good thing is that my big brother wasn't near me, Helena gave me a new diary, tome whatever thoughts you have you can write down in these in this diary it's one of my first new gifts for you for living with me but even if you weren't living with me, I would still give you this diary is Tom will be yours and only yours and that's what I've been writing my thoughts in ever cents thank you, Miss Helena Helena, just call me Mommy Helena she said only call me Miss Lena in school but outside of school you can call me, Helena or Mommy, Helena or mother Helena or whatever you want to call me mother Helena like that I'm not your real mother but I am your mother by adoption. Don't worry I will take great care of you and Scarlet.

As my father left, I told him goodbye and I love him and I will see him soon. See you around my sweet one he says, and be a good girl. Oh, don't worry she will be a good girl.

Meanwhile, back old house, my brother was wondering where I was I thought you said my sister was staying over at a friend's house and then she'll be coming back home She is home Where is she then that of your business my sister walked out on me just like our no good mother did no matter I will try and win her back some way don't get any ideas Kane said my sister is a traitor my trader is Lil sister leaving me no I don't think either way to get back at her someway somehow and I will make her mine forever. Why do you send my sister away? Where is she no matter I'll figure out how to get her back. She's not getting away with getting away from me.

Does it matter you'll never see her again

father said

When father left, so so sad himself, I will find you, my sister Scarlet, my Scarlet, and I will get you back. You don't get away from leaving me you will become my enemy now.

And if you ever betray me, I will make you pay one day little sister

I'll see you at school then

it was the next week and I did come to school, but I didn't come to school with father so I was surprised to not see me come in yet I was already here father dropped off, so like always saw me standing with my new friend Claire, and her group of friends planning another slumber party but I'll be another few weekends or so I already had a party once she said to invite into our friend group, Scarlet scarlet Ignace is part of our group now I didn't change my last name when I was adopted by Helena that way I can show that I was different from her at the moment and she lives with the teacher now that's what I heard. I do live with Miss Lena. Now I said looking up and seeing some across the room, he glared at me and my new group of friends got away from my sister. Soul said coming towards them The girls shattered or scattered getting away from Soul Claire did her ground. What do you want soul for you to get away from my sister? I said he said he charged at her. Oh well, I know that Scarlet is your sister but she doesn't live with you. She is my sister, my little sister. And she's my sister my Scarlet I should've thought No no don't you think about it brother I said back Don't you think about wanting me? I'm happy being with Miss Lena living with her you betrayed me to her. You are now my enemy you left me scarlet

You left me alone with the father. Now our father is left alone he beats me scarlet. Oh well, that's what else is new, and he makes me go fishing with him even though I hate fishing, I'd rather practice my fire magic than have to go fishing with our dad, he's not my dad. Well I mean he is but he's not It's complicated but I'm happy where I am so can you just leave me alone I said as I glared at him... I was hoping you would watch on to me like a lovesick puppy lovesick over you you're my gross brother maybe not now but one day you might and you might regret your decision one day, Scarlet one day you'll realize that there's no other place better to be than with me, your big brother who will protect you I don't need you soul and you're not my brother anymore at least not in the way you think walking off with my new friends and leaving soul behind, we went off and started chatting and playing

Because of this, my brother went all over and beat up a bunch of groups of people, and also a fight broke out and he was covered in bruises and I had to go over and straighten out everything Now break it up he started it one boy said funny at my brother soul. Did you start this fight now Do you know better Praise me No you don't deserve any praise you didn't do well enough to get remarks, so I'm not praising you Know behave yourself why should my sister betray me? And that you are taking her side too I only came over to visit here in there to visit your sister and I only did it once and I only do it to visit your father with your sister from time to time but not to see you. Well, if you ever leave you'll be a traitor he says so you better not stop seeing my father then what do you mean by don't stop seeing your father do you think I'm gonna try and date him if you're taking care of my sister, then I hope that you become my stepmother then Miss Lena well then, but anyway, I also don't want you to become my stepmother, you favor my sister over me I don't like it.

when his back was turned, so watch me melt. As far as he could to my level, I started stroking my face Incest was happening gingerly he did stop I said I don't like this idea. You're my sister and I will freeze from this trader. Helena from trader Miss Lena and I will take you away with me know when I get older I will do this you won't dare if you do then you're no good brother no good why do you want to do this?

Why do you want to commit crimes like this and you're only four he says Because you were my sister my sister no one's friend, my friend you're my Scarlet I don't like this statistical tone you're taking this possessiveness I don't like it one bit well you better get used to this because this is how it's gonna be he says no I won't let you get away with this. You're a monster that's what you are brother I tried to get away, but he pulled on my hair. Look at me. Scarlet scar look at me know I will not look at you. I don't deserve this and you don't deserve to do this to me. I don't like you.

You love me I know you love me and if you love me, you don't miss tell him that and come back and live with me. If you love me, you will stop being friends with Claire. I think you've chosen Miss, Helena Miss, Lena, and Claire over me and her family over me, you're too young to even understand what Elvis means neither neat, so do you you have no idea it's all says licking me into the ice so brother if you cared for me at all, just let me go and live my own life

sister, if you love me dump or dump this new family you have gonna start creating for yourself as Lena is not your mother so you don't need to call her Miss Lena's mother Helena whatever you want to call her because she's not your mother she's not your family. I am betraying her and coming back to my side No, I'm happy I said for the first time and this isn't the first time I will be telling you this I walked away he tried grabbing for me again, but I walked off.

Are you trying to make moves on me again? I tried to stop him, but he was too overpowering. I love you Scarlet I'm not gonna be old enough to do these things to you yet, but I will find you and I will make you my sister you can't hide with Miss Helena forever with Miss Lena. No way, would you hide with her forever? If you betray me, you'll be a no disgusting creature not even a person to me Henderson band if you love me and do this for me, I will not find betray me, but I will come back for you.

So walked away Let's be standing in the middle of the schoolyard. Nana came over and checked on me. Are you OK? She asked I'm fine Miss Lena just a little shaken up. What was that all about? What was your brother doing? He's allowed to touch you understand I didn't make him. I didn't try. I tried to stop him, but he wouldn't listen, Kane needs to Your father needs to control this boy or he'll be out of control. Let us return to the other kids. They're probably thinking I'm giving you too much favoritism let us go...

What's the wash off all of the bruises and get you cleaned up? OK, I'll never abandon you mama Helena. I know you won't. Scarlet knows. As the school day progressed flight was normal.

The day ended and we went home. I went back to Helen's house because that's where I was living OK then I. We are now home home. It was hard to think of being with Miss Lena as home, but it is home now. I've been living here for several weeks now and it's been very nice. I should visit my father once in a while, but just father and bring me to visit with my father. Sometimes he would ask Helena how I was doing in school and she would always respond by saying that I was doing well in school. My marks were high and I was very well learned for from my age at the age of three we don't do a lot you know because they're only little kids, of course, I just want to know if she's doing OK he would ask first they are why wouldn't she be her brother tries to make moves on her I'm worried who might form incest part of me wants to take her out of school but I can't right now. Teaching is all I have right now. But we better get going so I can fix dinner. Are you going to eat with us? No, I'm sorry Kane but I am not eating with you today. Scarlet and I will only eat here if your son never comes and eats and he's always here, so what's the point you know?

I was sitting next to Helena when my brother came into the house sister there you are why don't you come with me No I'm happy I told you that already so why don't you just leave me alone OK fine fine I will leave you alone but remember what I said I will come for you one day and I won't stop confronting you if you ever still come over here with her, she comes and sees what do you expect her to do to not come and see him well yes What do you expect that's exactly what I expect

I should've thought of being souls forever I don't think coming around is good for Scarlet. If you want to see us why don't you come to visit our house Kane Fine I'll do that if it's best for my daughter that way, so her brother won't be around This will probably be the best probably be the better arrangement anyway I'll see you around see you

Helen and I left we left that house. I was never to return, not even to visit If Father wanted to visit he would just come to Helen's house and visit me there. I was fine with that. Anyway, let's time to see my brother the better I was scared of him, to be honest.

The only place I would see him again would be at school because she couldn't take me out of school yet. She was thinking about it though I want to take you out of the school Scarlet but then I can't take you out of school right now Maybe there'll be a solution to all of our problems one day a day where you might not have to see your brother much at all and if you do it even more rare than it is, I would hope so I said looking at Helena, not looking at her because I was blind, but looking in her direction if you ever have a family if your own would you ever forget about me and get rid of me why would you think those thoughts? I know no scarlet I would bring you into my new family and even give you the last name of who I marry, just so you'd be ours you never have to worry about those thoughts, and if I have children of my own, they will love you too, and you were up with them and they'll be your friends, just like Claire they will be your friends and never leave your side so don't you ever worry I will always take care of you your daughter now you're my daughter. Thank you. I'm glad that I am.

If anything, you can come to me for anything, Scarlet, I promise you anything you need anything you want you can come to me for it always
