You doze off in the van. What?! You're exhausted, especially after everything you've had to take in! After a rather long explanation, and a few mental breakdowns, you're ready to meet the medias! Well, a few at least. Some are still in hiding after what they found yesterday, which was Laureth's dead body, mutilated. Yeah...that kinda freaks you out....

Either way, you're kind of excited! The medias all sound really nice, except for IN EX, which you still can't figure out what his full name is. Hmm...oh well, I'll find out soon enough. You think, as the sun wakes you from a dreamless sleep.

"Ms. Shelby, this is your stop. Good luck." The team drops you off at the bus station, and you shrug, deciding to go look around. I should ask when I can go and get all my old clothes, after all, I have like 15 bucks in my wallet, and that's for groceries.

You've been told that you'll be staying in Laureth's old house, and that the government will be paying for it, seeing as they forced you to take the job.

"HI! You must be the new Prime, am I right?" You turn around, finding a girl with fiery orange hair, wearing a nice orange dress with white w's all over it, and a pair of white high-tops.

(Just imagine it has w's all over it, will you? I was not going to photoshop them on.)

"I'm Wattpad, though the others just call me Watty. What's your name?" She bounces over to you happily, her hair whipping around her face as the wind picks up.

"I'm Shelby, the new Prime, as you guessed. Nice to meet you, Watty." Watty grins at you, bouncing on the balls of her feet.

"I'm going to take a shot in the dark, and guess that I'm the first Media you've met?" You nod gently, and she smiles, grabbing your hand.

"Well, come on then! Let's go meet some of the others!" She starts leading you somewhere, which ends up being a fairly large house, and it's painted a nice shade of dark green.

"Water! In! The new Prime's here! Come meet her!" A deep chuckle resounds through the house, and a blond male appears in the hallway to your right. He has blue streaks running through his hair, and he faintly reminds you of some internet browser. Wearing an old and scruffy looking white t-shirt, with black skinny jeans, he looks like your typical hot perv.

"Ooh, another female? Maybe she won't be as feisty as our last Prime." His eyes look over you, trying to find out what's beneath your oversized jacket.

"Back off, perv," You say, tugging your jacket tighter around you.

"Aw, has she already been warned? Laureth never was any fun." His eyes are still gazing at your body, when he hits the floor.

"Stop. She's a human, and deserves to be treated as such, Ex." The new male, you assume he's the one named Water, gazes at you softly, thoughtfully. He has navy blue hair with a streak of white, and light blue eyes. He's wearing red flannel (What? I personally really like flannel), with blue jeans, and black work boots.

"I apologize for him, he's not used to female guests, or really just your gender as a whole." Water's voice is soft, almost calming. Keyword being almost. You won't let your guard down, especially after meeting In.

"The douche over there is Internet Explorer, though we either call him In, In Ex, or Explorer. And the one who saved you is Water, aka Water Fox." Watty explains, with the respective people waving as their name is mentioned.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, miss..." You blush, twisting a strand of hair around your finger. "Shelby, my name's Shelby." "Ah, well then, it's a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Shelby." Water holds out his hand, and you shake it.

"It's quite nice to meet you, Shelby," Explorer purrs, and you're tempted to kick him, in the stomach. "Can't say I feel the same, douche." You look up and down the halls, and Water chuckles.

"I can't say that you being curious is surprising, seeing as this is your new home." You gasp, staring at him in disbelief.

"You didn't tell her, did ya, Watty?" Watty shrugs, coughing into her fist. "Um, maybe not? Oops." You break out into a big grin, and notice buckets of paint sitting near the walls.

"You guys were painting the halls?" Explorer nods, sitting up. "Yup, Watty said it was the "Neighborly thing to do"." He rolls his eyes, yawning.

"We've been here since 1, cleaning and painting." You decide to hug him, gently.

"Thank you, it was very kind of you." In freezes, as if he doesn't know what to do.

"I...um...."
