  I walked around the White Fang base eager to here what was going on.  There were people gathered around Beacon and I wasn't sure if the White Fang had robbed a bank or anything like that.  They did that sometimes. And sometimes I helped them.  The past few days Roman and I have been busy planning along with Cinder what we should do next.  I continued to walk now looking at the floor and ran into someone.  I looked up and saw a boy there. He was much taller than me and he looked down to see who he had just ran into.  He smiled as I took a step backwards.  "Don't be scared. I'm not here to hurt you. Neo, right?" he asked still smiling. I nodded, "If you were here to hurt me I wouldn't be scared.  I'm not weak." I replied quietly. He laughed, "Sorry, that came out wrong. Oh! My name is Laurence. Nice to meet you!" he said. "Nice to meet you" I said as I smiled.

  "So you work with Cinder and the White Fang? Sounds fun. Beacon is fun too." he said to me.  I looked at him suspiciously. "You're not worried that I'll tell Beacon about this place do you?  Cause I won't." He gave me a cute smile so I couldn't help but smile back. "Don't talk much, huh? Cool with me. Guess then I'll have to do all the talking" He said happily.  "First off, I was wondering. Would I be able to join your little 'group' with Cinder, Emerald, Mercury, and you?" I though about it. "Talk to Cinder about that. I'm not the one who will make the choice" I responded. 

  We found Cinder and they talked for a while, while I was talking with Roman.  After they finished talking, I walked over to them. "How did it go?" I asked. "We will now be working together!" he practically yelled. I smiled and we walked away.
