I froze. No it can't be true. She can't be here. How did she find me? I hid myself well. Changed my once blond hair to black with red and purple streaks; I covered up my eyes- one green, one blue, with brown contacts; and I ate a lot so my skinny body would be larger. I mean I didn't even tell anyone my freaking name so they wouldn't find me. How did the second deadliest one find me? 

"Aww is poor Alice not happy to see her big sister?" Tiye asked with mocking pout on her face, when she saw I still hadn't moved. This gave me a bout of courage. How dare she? She shall not be called my sister! She has been dead to me ever since she ran over my dog Baby Bows. I had believed in her. I guess I should've seen her evil side before that fateful day. I mean she is what got me into that whole gang mess. 

"No Tiye, I'm not happy to see you. You are no longer my sister, you're dead to me. Oh and two more things. One-My name is no longer Alice. It's Brynn. Two- Get out," I said to her defiantly standing up straight and taking three large steps towards ending right in front of hair. Up close I could smell her rancid breath. It smelled of alchohol, she was obviously drunk. Her blond hair was matted with dirt and someone else's blood. Her shirt was ripped and see-through along with her pants being almost torn to shreds. She needed serious help.....but then again so did her whole gang. 

Her eyes narrowed as she finally registered what I said. 

"Alice, Spencer misses you. He wants you to come home. He told me to tell you that he loves you and he knows you still love him even after all those harsh words you said six years ago," Tiye replied trying to grab me and pull me along with her as she spoke. 

"I don't want to go back, Tiye. I don't love Spencer, I realize now I never did. I never even remotely did. I hate that whole gang. I hate what they do. The murders, the ransoms, the rapes, the drunks.It was all too much. The graffitti at the beginning I could take, but not what they're doing now," I told her. Spencer doesn't love me. How could he? He has no ability to love. Tiye let me go an whirled around and took a couple drunken steps at me. She smirked at me. 

"I told him you'd say that, Alice. He didn't believe me. He said you'd come willingly but I knew you wouldn't. So that's why I took precautionary measures," She said to me. She reached in her pocket and pulled out a knife and I knew she would use it. "Alice come home," Tiye said menacingly. I shook me head.

"No," I shouted and ran. I ran down the stairs that just happened to be next to my apartment and ran out of the apartment house thing. I ran and ran and ran. I wasn't sure if Tiye was still behind me but I ran anyway. If I stopped there was no doubt in my mind she would catch me and slit my throat for 'misbehaving'. 

I looked behind me to see if she was catching up and found her on the ground but getting back up about a mile away. She must have fallen. It was a bad idea not to look where I was going because I ran into something. Or rather...someone? I looked up at the tall person in front of me. My blood ran cold. Oh no.
