You would think sneaking up on random women late at night under a highway isn't a great idea right? Well he didn't think so.

I am Thriving! Not only am I surviving now but the life of a missing criminal is amazing! I still live under the highway but I've blown a hole in the side of it and stole a few things to make it more homely. I found a couch that someone was throwing out and dragged it back here, now that's my bed! I also manage to eat well every night! This teleport ability is awesome! I just fill up a bag with groceries and run out the back door then teleport away. I even eat out sometimes and just leave false information on all of my forms. I don't look like who I used to. I even stole some clothes and now I have this super cool skirt and top that I wear almost everywhere! Of Course I live without power and to cook any food I just find a service station and microwave it there. I live like a king.

Tonight as I was going to sleep I heard some ruckus. I got up and looked behind the curtains I had put over my home. A blond boy no older than me was hyperventilating with four little creatures flying around him.

"Who are you?" I demanded. He looked surprised and stumbled backwards.

"Uh I Please don't turn me in!" He shouted with his hands up in a vulnerable position position.

"Turn *you* in?" I laughed.

"Y-yea?~" He asked, confused, "Why wouldn't you?"

"Because I'm on the run."

"You are?!"

"I mean yea, I'm concerned that you're going to turn me in." I laughed out, he then had a light chuckle.

"I'm on the run, but not from the police... it's... a *lot* bigger than the police..."

"Same here."

"Who are you running from?"

"Do you know Kingdom corporation?"

"You too?" I looked at him confused, "I'm on the run from kingdom too!" He laughed. I smiled back at the boy.

"Why are you on the run? You look about eighteen years old."

"Seventeen actually. But you don't look much older!"

"I'm twenty-one."

"Oh"

"But you still didn't answer my question."

"Oh yea... I, uh, stole these little guys." Four creatures came from behind his back. One on the floor, two suspended in the air and one went straight into a pouch he was wearing around his stomach.

They were all jelly-like in texture with little triangles floating around in their jelly-like bodies. They all, except for one had a scaly like texture on their back which was a greyish brown colour that acted like armour to these cute little guys. The one on the floor was yellow and had a purple and green owl-like mask over the white abyss that was his eyes. He was pointy and had four limbs, standing small on two legs. The other was blue and had smaller limbs, she was blue and floated near the boy's head. One was pink and had the most amour on. The last was a small green ball with a yellow mask. They were so cute. 

"oh my goodness!" I exclaimed. "they're so cute! I can see why you stole them." 

"why are you on the run?" he asked, the creatures returning to nussel into him.

I let out a long sigh. "They tried to make me a radiant because the ones in our world at the moment aren't gonna obey their rules, and now I see why."

"so you're technically a radiant?"

"sort of. I mean yea but the way that the others were made, or so i was told, was exposure from the first light. Kingdom just injected me with in hopes that I would get powers. I'm also technically property of kingdom so in a sense we're the same." He laughed.

"Are you saying you stole yourself?"

"in a sense." I laughed back. "What's your name?" I asked.

"My name? I'm Matteo. you?"

"Lynn."

"Nice to meet you Lynn."

"Nice to meet you too Matteo. If you ever need a place to hide from kingdom I'll be here!" I smiled, he smiled back.

"I'll definitely come back, I'll see you around Lynn." He then disappeared into the darkness once more.  I took a breath and then I herd sirens. He ran back towards me and i ushered him towards my house and then i closed the curtain again. "ha." he laughed. "I... I think I'll stick around for a while?" I just giggled and nodded my head.
