Three people came inside this small forest, probably due to hiking or walking around. Whatever it was, they saw the house I live in and decided to check it out. Judging from their height, they look to be in their early 20's. As soon as they saw me, I instantly grabbed one of them and reveal my teeth to them.

Who are you? What are you even doing here?! I shouted. I can tell they are scared that a 7 year old is scarring close to 20 year old people. One of them slowly walked up to me, telling me to let him go. I didn't trust them, they would have gotten a gun on them.

If you have any weapons, get rid of them and then I'll let him go. I said. One of them had a knife on them, they dropped it and tossed it to make sure they didn't attack me. I stared at them for a few moments and let the guy I grabbed go by kicking him in his knee. He was screaming in a pain for a bit.

The other two guys picked him up and the third guy tried to grabbed the knife, but the first guy grabbed that knife and threw it far away. The third guy was not having it.

"The hell dude. Did you not see what that little girl did to me?" -The third guy said.

"Listen Eric. She is not human, who knows what she can do to us?" -The first guy said

"Yeah but, what if she find out she can kill us then what?!" -Eric shouted

"Shut the fuck up man! How about we adopt her? Let her live with us?" -The second guy said.

"You serious man? Let alone a child who threaten us?" -The first guy said.

"Well, it shows she can actually DO something unlike YOU Tony." -The second guy said.

"What about you Vinny? What do you do?" -Tony said.

"At least I actually do have a decent life with you smoking your ass off." -Vinny said.

"Let's just adopt her for christ sake." -Eric said as he slowly got up.

Vinny walked up to me and put his hand out.

"Do you want to live with us? We aren't gonna hurt you." -Vinny said in a calm voice.

Of course, I had to accept the fact they are the only people here who saw me. I threaten them because I was scared. Vinny picked me up and put me by his shoulders and we all walked to their SUV and head to their home. I may miss the forest but at some point I had to move somewhere. I guess I had to live with them and spend my best life with them. They are much older then me so they can grow older faster then I could've thought about before. This may be my new life, however....it is just the beginning of what I have truly become.
