*s*t*a*r*s

            Spencer was seven years old, running around the playground of her new school.  She remembered skinning her knee badly, and being sent home early, after the school nurse had patched her up.  Her mother, Jo, had picked her up, not a word asked, or said.  They'd walked into the apartment that they'd just settled into and Jo had lost all reason.

            "Did they touch you?  Did they touch your blood, Spencer?  This is important!  Look at me!" her mother had yelled.  Spencer shied away from her mother touch. 

            "No," cried the young girl.

            "You must never, ever let anyone touch it, never let anyone test your blood.  Never let them, never!" her mother ranted.  Pacing the room like a caged animal, Jo had tugged her long hair into a ponytail and begun to rant again. "You never know, Spencer.  You never know who they might be, or what they might find, or what they will think when they find out what you are.  Are you listening to me?"

            "Yes," nodded the young girl.  "No one did."

            "No, not this time, not this time.  You can hurt someone, Spencer.  You understand that?  I don't know what it would do to someone.  Your blood, it isn't normal and I don't know what it would do to someone else, okay, Spencer?" 

            Spencer had nodded, not really understanding, but wanting her mother's tirade to stop.  Instead, the woman had packed them up, and it is the last time that Spencer had attended school, after that, her mother had schooled her herself.
