   I wake up in a haze on the couch, not know how I had gotten there. I sit up and look around the living room and spot the kitchen light being on. I slowly get up and grab what was closest to me...I look down and roll my eyes at myself, of course it was a pillow...Now how am I supposed to defend myself with this? I shrugged and continued to walk towards the kitchen.
"Morning sleepy head I let myself in and I was making you breakfast if that's ok."
I look at the boy in disbelief and threw the pillow at him.
"What the hell get out! Who are you?!?"
"I am Axel and you are Harper.....uh don't be afraid I am only here to help you with you nightmare that you had...about you d-... Ok never mind... Can I be forgive and you not throw anything else at me."
"First, you make no sense and if you don't get out of my house I will call the police and second, how about some coffee?" I look at Axel and a small smile plays upon my lips and I thought that it wouldn't hurt to actually get to know him.
   I look at him and consider about going to have coffee.
   "Ooookay so Axel," I say slowly and he stops what he was doing and looks at me.
    "Yeah?"
    "How about some coffee?" I look at him and smile. He looks back and smiles too.
     "That sounds like a good thing to do, let's go get coffee." He heads for the door and then stops to look at me.
     "Shall I take the keys and drive?"
     I shake my head and laugh at him.
      "No let me, I know a great coffee place here in town."
    He nods and heads out to the car.

     Axel frowns for a moment and then looks at me.
     "Harper there are things you are not going to like me saying to you, but you must listen to me when I say then ok?" He said seriously. I take a quick glance at him to make sure he wasn't kidding me to hell and back. So when I had seen his face I just nodded. Ok totally not shitting me right now. Great.
       "Harper you were basically put on this earth to die and or put here to kill people." At that I slammed on the breaks and looked at him with the look of terror.
      "Get out of my car." I said blankly. Why did he lie to me like this? I can't believe this.
     "OUT!" I yelled this time because I was done.
      "I told you that you wouldn't like what I was going to say, look you have to believe me on this and what I am telling you." He tried to insist but I brushed it off.
"Please get out I don't even know why I considered being nice to you like this. EVEN AFTER YOU INVADED MY HOME! Please get out." I say the last part softly because I was losing my temper.
"No Harper I am not going anywhere. Did you know that your parents are dead and you are living with foster ones? Did you also know that you are going to change and your powers are going to be revealed?"
"Enough. Get. Out. Of. My. Car." I threaten him with each word. He then slumped his shoulder and frowned.
"Fine." He said flatly and unbuckled and got out of the car.
"Harper just to let you know I am telling you the truth.... You just need to learn to listen." With that he shut the car door and stepped back away from the car and I hit the acceleration and fled him. Not even knowing where I was going. I felt trapped and I couldn't believe I actually considered even giving the intruder a chance to talk to me. I couldn't even forgive myself for being so stupid. I then pulled over and turned off the engine and began to sob. What if he was right about my parents? I don't think I can go on anymore if it is true. Could I possibly believe him after being in my house without me knowing? I just couldn't think anymore as tears were shed and my thoughts were a blur.
