Their front door had been kicked in and some of the windows had been smashed, random break inn’s were very rare now. Since the government took over because the punishments. James looked at Lily and said “Go Lily run next door to the Johnsons. James looked around the outside of the house then followed after Lily. They had been very close with the Johnson family Lily was friends with there daughter June and they would look after Lily sometime when James when out with his friends and tried to have so fun. James told Lily to go and play along and he was going to talk to Mr. and Mrs. Johnson. Lily ran off right way glad to be able to hang with her friend and ignore the boring adult conversation. James told them about the house and they peered out the window at the house and seen the damage.  James asked “Can you call the police and tell them that you seen the damage to the house and wanted to call it in?” They looked at him confused then Mr. Johnson replied “Why, can you do it?” He started to hand James the phone. James put his hand put shaking them no. “Random Break – inns don’t happen much anymore, I think it might have been the government looking for me and Lily. She been late and absent from school sometimes while I been adjusting. Please I need to know if we need to go on the run, I can’t let them take Lily.” Mr. Johnson was getting ready to say something when Mrs. Johnson took the phone out of Mr. Johnsons hand and started to dial the phone. Mr. Johnson started yelling “If it is the government and we get caught helping out we…” She cut him of “Oh, you Shh now I am on the phone!” The phone stopped ring and a man with a deep voice answered the phone “Police department how may I help you?” “Yes I would like to report a possible break- in.” “Okay give me the address and I will let you know if it is something that you should be careful of or if its government business.” “Thanks you Sir.” She gave him the address and waited for him to look it up in his little computer and respond back to her, “Okay madam, I believe that you have nothing to worry about, its government business so leave the worrying up to them.” “Okay Sir thanks for your time goodnight.” “Goodnight madam.” Then he hung up the phone.
