It was the beginning of fall. Colourful leaves covered the dead grass.

"What do you mean you can't find her!" a woman with jet black hair said sternly into the eyes of an officer.

"I've been telling you, shes always hung around with the wrong people especially after her father died." the woman continued.

"Mam, i apologise, but we've been looking for her for about 3 months. Shes no where in the state. 8 weeks ago we posted lost signs all over worldwide television, and nothin' has come in yet." the officer replied.

"You can't just tell me that! I'm her mother and she needs to be with me at all times!"the woman yelled.

"That's funny since you're never with her." a girl said.

The woman turned around.

"Who might you be?" the woman asked.

"My name is natiana, and i know exactly where your daughter is." the girl said.

-3 months ago-

"Bye Morgan!" natiana said to her best friend before walking the opposite direction.

She heard Morgan yell bye back as she walked in the direction of her house.

When Nati reached her home, she fell on her bed and pulled out her phone.

"20 messages..... great." Natiana said to herself. She kicked off her shoes and started to open them.

Mom: WHERE ARE YOU!!

COME HOME NOW!!!

I TOLD YOU, YOU HAVE TO BE HOME!

COME BACK NOW!

etc... etc.... etc....

"love you too mom." Natiana said to herself. Her mother has sent her 19 messages, the last message was from an unknown number.

???: I'm here.

Natiana looked at that message and looked outside then back at the message.

It was late out, the only light came from the moon and street lamps, so even if she could look outside..... She wouldn't be able to tell if someone was out there.

"I'm here..." natiana whispered to herself.

Before she could get another thought, there was a bang on her door.

"Nati are you in there?!" her mother yelled while pounding on the door.

She got up and unlocked the door.

Then swiftly opening the wooden door she saw her mothers flamed eyes.

"Yes... I am in here." Nati said to her mother.

"What the hell Nati! I've been worried sick!! Where have you been all day!" her mother yelled.

"I was out with Mo..." she replied walking away from the door.

"Oh and that's your excuse for not telling me!" her mother yelled again. She barged into her room.

"Yea now what's yours?! You're never home and when i try to call you never pick up! I would have asked you for permission if you actually put effort into communicating with me!" Natiana yelled and fell on her bed. She stuffed her face in a pillow because she didn't want to see her mother.

Her mom sighed.

She sat on the side of Natis bed and laid a hand on her shoulder.

She tried to calm down.

"Nati..... You know where i was." she said.

Natiana sat up and looked at her mom.

"Why..... Why do you go there so often........ I thought they didn't need you anymore..." Natiana said holding back emotion.

"You're right, they don't NEED me..... But it's my duty to serve them..... They are my fami-" nati's mom started.

"I'm your family." Natiana cut in.

"You are but..... " her mom started.

"But I'm not good enough.... What because I'm not your actual daughter? So that makes me worthless..." nati said holding back tears.

"No, darling....... You're my true daughter even if we are not blood!" her mom said hugging her.

"No, stop." nati said pushing her mom away.

"Go back to the patterns if you must..... But just know that no matter what i am and always will be a coloured...... " Natiana explained.

"I know...." her mom replied.

"Good....... So you will understand if i have to leave right?" Natiana asked.

"Wait... What?" her mom said confused.

"Great, so you do your pattern thing and I'll be back in god knows how long. Bye mom." Natiana said while standing up, grabbing her jacket, and kissing her mom on the forehead.

"Wait Natia-" her mom started but got cut off by the door slamming shut.

A couple seconds went by and nati's mom stayed sitting on her daughters bed.

"I love you." nati's mom whispered before she heard the front door slam shut.

"And stay safe." her mother said.

Natiana started to walk down the street. The dim street lamps light her way.

"Glad you could make it." a voice said.

"I'm here..... Now lets go."

-3 months later-

"So where is she?" Morgan's mom asked Natiana.

"You won't believe me if i told you the truth..... So instead ill tell you an exaggerated truth........ Morgan is in another.... Hmmm..... City... That is quite different then ours..... And if we don't get her out of that city soon.... Shes going tp be stuck there forever." Natiana explained.

"Why forever?" the officer asked.

"Because soon the cities gates will be closing, and then no one will be safe." Natiana answered.
