Rescuers

Chapter Six

I was very scared for the questions Vanoss and Moo were gonna ask me. Well, I'm not sure if Moo is gonna ask anything, just Vanoss. Vanoss sat down on one of the couches, and I sat on the couch opposite of him. Moo walks over to one of the drawers in the kitchen and receives a yellow note pad and a pen, then makes his way over and sits beside by Vanoss.

"Okay, so first question." Vanoss starts. "Where are you originally from?"

So I guess he'll start with the typical questions, to get to know me a little bit. "I was born and raised in Texas. Northern Texas to be exact." I see Moo writing notes. I'm guessing the questions and my answers so they can tell the others.

"Okay, Moo mentioned something about your family. Mostly your dad, and I presume that you don't want to talk about him. He told me the whole story, and I'm really sorry about that. But what about your other family members? Mom? Step dad? Brother? Anyone?"

"Umm.. Let's see.. I guess I'll start with my brother. His name is Michael. He's four years older than me, and he used to be a big jerk and obnoxious. When he got older, he moved in with his girlfriend and he started to act a little like a brother. When I moved, the last time I knew he was working as a mechanic. My step dad's name is John, and he works as a wielder. He raised me ever since I was two, and I'm very thankful that he entered my life, because without him, I wouldn't be the same person I am today. Now my mom. My mom is the reason why I am the way I am. Her name is Michelle. Without her, I wouldn't be here. I miss her so much, and I haven't talked to her since I moved. If anything happened to any of them three, I would break down. I wouldn't know what to do." I looked down, worrying if they're okay.

Vanoss gives me a minute. "Any pets?"

I smile as I think of the little dog that we've had for the longest time. "Yeah, her name is Sophie. She's a little black toy poodle, and she's been apart of the family for seven years. Our family loves her to death."

I look up at Vanoss, and he just smiles at how happy I suddenly got. The next question kinda takes me by surprise. "Is there any pet that you want to have?"

Why is he asking me this? "I've always wanted to have a little German Shepard pup. Then have him grow up to be protective of me. And be very friendly to my friends. I'd name him Oliver. Why do you ask?"

He looks away. "Just a question." He finally looks at me again, well, looks at me through his mask. "Why did you move here?"

"I wanted to pursue my dream of becoming an actress and a singer."

"You sing?" He asks a little shocked.

"Yeah, why are you shocked?"

"Because Lomasi and Trinity can sing too. Could you please sing a verse from a song?"

I think of what song I want to sing. Then I start to sing chorus to Centuries by Fall Out Boy. When I'm finished, both Moo and Vanoss stare at me, Moo with his mouth open. "What? What's wrong?"

They snap out of their trance. "That was amazing MacKenzie." Moo states as Vanoss nods in agreement. I just smile and say, "Thank you. Any other questions?"

"Moo also mentioned that you haven't had a boyfriend since you were nineteen, is that true?"

I wonder why he asks this.. Maybe one of the other guys in the gang like me? I don't know, maybe I'm just being paranoid. "Uhh, yeah. It's one hundred percent true. If my own dad doesn't love me, then no man ever will."

I see Vanoss make his hands into fists. He must have noticed me looking at them because he instantly relaxed them again. I think Moo noticed this too, because he was staring at Vanoss as well. "Vanoss, can I talk to you for a second in the kitchen?"
