I wake up at the crack of dawn to go exploring again, I have to be quiet this Time just in case dad is home... Dad scares me, last time I snuck out he beat me... I don't think he likes me. I silently creep down the hall to the door, then my brother stops me. "What are you doing?!" He whispers. "Remember what happened last time dad found out you snuck out?" He reminds me. "Yes I know, but exploring is how I get away from all the drama" I wish he would just give me some space sometimes. "What drama? There hasn't been any drama since the last time you snuck out" he quietly explains. "I mean at school, the people think I'm weird. I get bullied all the time and nobody likes me" I say on the verge of crying. "Look Emily, sneaking out is only going to make things worse, just stay out of trouble please. I hate seeing dad hurt you. " says my loving brother. My dads alarm goes off "oh crap!" My brother whispers. "Go to your room! And fast." He says carefully. "Callen why are you up?!" I hear my dad say in his deep, monstrous voice. "Dad, I-i can explai-" -WHAM- I peek my head out my door and see my brother on the floor. My dad is now the enemy. The enemy of the starseekers. The enemy of us.
I hear my brother crying, begging for mercy. I hear the deep boom of my dads voice when he yells. I hear a door open. "Dad stop! Dad please stop! What are you doing, no! Stop it your hurting him!" Kara screams as the enemy beats callen. Kara, she is the warrior. She is the one who tries to protect me and callen, she does what dads are supposed to do. But no, dad is not dad anymore, he is now the enemy... And I shall hate him forever. I hear a smack and kara's crying, he hit her! "I swear to god if Emily's up.." The enemy says as I rush to my bed.
            We all walk to school with terror in our eyes. The enemy has struck two of the last four starseekers. He will regret it, all the stars in the world will  soon turn against him. I tell people at school but they don't believe, they never do. They don't believe my mom, callen, Kara , and I are starseekers, they don't believe in such thing. That's why I'm bullied at school. People make fun of me for being a "nerd". I just want to never go to school again, matter fact, I don't even want to go home.. So tonight I will just watch the stars.
