Third Person P.O.V.
Alex was walking around his neighborhood as usual. Everything was familiar to him because he does this so often. There is a patch of woods near the side of a road. The woods are what Alex finds the most interesting. They are eerie but yet so calm. No one exits the woods, which is even more creepy. Whenever someone goes inside they never return.

He was focused on the woods, other than the world around him. After 5 minutes of looking at the woods Alex decided to go home because it was getting late. When he got home Alex looked at a clock and it read 8:30. 'Pretty early,' Alex thought to himself. His parents were out working and they don't come home until about 10:30. So Alex decided to go to bed.

-Dramatic Time Skip-

The next morning Alex woke up to his parents fighting over things like bills, taxes, food, and Alex himself. This was usual in his house so he didn't mind that other than the fact that his dad hates him and never wanted him, those were the things that hurt Alex. He got ready for school and put on some nice clothes to wear. Alex walked to school every day with his friends and they got breakfast sometimes of the were up early enough. Once Alex was out of his room he got breakfast and left.

He met up with his friends as usual; Jonas, Sarah, Cadence (Cadie for short), and Vincent (Vinny for short). All of them were waiting for Alex and waited outside his house. Alex walked to them and said, "Were you guys stalking me?"  Jonas replied with, "We were not stalking you. It's called closely watching you from a window outside your house while staring at you." All of them burst into laughter because of the stupidity and Sarah says, "I'm pretty sure they're the same thing, Jonas."

They all had a part in their group. They were all special in a different way so they had "jobs."
Jonas: Tech, smart stuff, presentations, and building things
Sarah: Musician, theme music, finds information of gangs
Alex: Leads the group and the planner
Cadence: Writer and artist
Vincent: The "scary" one and the fighter

They started walking towards the school and all they did was make jokes and have fun. Alex felt "normal" with his friends. By normal it means crazy and weird. They all stuck up for each other and are very close. Once they got to school they sat down at a table and still talked. Then they were released to their classrooms, or what Jonas, Sarah, Vinny, and Cadie (mostly Jonas) like to call it, "A stampede to hell."
