Chapter 10: Austin in Hilther Foster Home
    The popping sound of bubble wrap, birds tweeting outside of my window, the old and rundown room I was living in. This has been 'the' normal for me. The scenery of people coming in and out of the house, with or without a child in their hands is just a typical day for me to wake up for. I stretches my body, warming up every joints and muscles in it and forces myself to stand up. It's time for me to fix my bed and out of this room. I jumped out of bed hurriedly. I don't want to spend another day in that dirty cell just because I have come down late for five minutes. When I went downstairs one time, with 8:05 am on the clock, I was pinched and put on a dark dirty cell just because I didn't help with the morning chores that day. Isn't that funny? A heavy punishment for a light and small mistake. Ironic. After fixing my bed, and putting away the bubble wrap I got when one of the children in here received a package from their pa

Chapter 12: Priam (Part 1)
  The sound of the swaying trees, birds tweeting, and the heavy breaths from tiredness is all I could hear as I feel my body floating in the air. I am positive, I'm being carried by someone on its back.  I instantly open, I could the heat from the shining sun directly on my face. Although hesitant, I move my eyes around just to see a vast view of big trees and lots of wild animals walking along us on our way. "Whe-where the hell are we?" I said tapping the top of his shoulder.   "Shaun, you're awake." I heard Loki's voice saying in a happy tone. He put me down on the grass and hand me a bottle of water.

But I know, Loki won't have me satisfy that hunger in me with that kind of look on his face. He just stand there for another minute before he finally speak up. "When you discover the things written on dad's journal Shaun, believe me, the look on Anna's face would be nothing compared to that." Loki said looking at me wearing a serious face.
