I woke up when my alarm went off, blinking in annoyance. I shut the damn thing up. Language said captain America in my head. 'Sorry' I muttered to the empty house.

While taking a shower I decided to grab my breakfast from the coffee shop near my house. I gathered my books and my phone and my keys and my purse and put them all in my bag, locked the door and started walking to Nancy's (which had free internet.)

Nancy's was already full when I got there. Only one empty spot left. I looked around and saw a middle aged woman was eying the spot too.

Screw respect. I'm hungry.

I half attacked, half jumped to the desk. She was closer but I had ninja abilities. I threw my leather jacket (food!) and it landed right on the chair next to it. I cheered in victory. I got to eat my breakfast here.

Take that, pretty stranger!

I ordered some pancakes and coffee. Nancy took the order so I knew there would be nutella in them. I was getting comfortable when I heard chairs being pulled back. I looked up from my book and saw a couple sitting at my desk while looking apologetically.

I was going to attack them with my bag (which was really heavy) when the girl said "sorry, but please let us sit here? We won't bother you, hell I'll buy some waffles for you but don't take away a good breakfast from us."

They're gonna bother you. Said my brain.

Free food yelled my heart.

" fine." I told them with a shrug.

She beamed at me. "since we're going to have breakfast together, I guess we'd better meet properly." She extended her hand to me. "hi! I'm Elizabeth Evans but you can call me Lizzy. And this is my boyfriend, Jason Ric." she pointed to the good looking guy next to him who muttered a 'nice to meet ya.'

"Juliet Gally." I answered simply and thank God that our food arrived and the awkward conversation ended.

The rest of my day went normal. I went to the academy and spent my whole day there. Had fun with all the books and inventions that had newly arrived. (perks of being a super nerd. You are not infinite, but life is fun.)

I was returning home when I decided to try out a new road and see where it leads to. I looked at the time. It was 8 pm, it was dark but the night was still young. Besides, there is always time for exploring and it wasn't like I had a family at home to wait up for me anyway. ( yeah I live alone.)

I was still exploring when I heard the shouting. I got closer to the source of the shouts and I saw a man (who was probably in his thirties.) pointing a gun to a guy (who was around my age and looked really, really hot. Yes, there is a life and death situation going on and I'm talking about how hot he is. I am completely normal.)

But I felt the color drain from my face when I saw the kind of gun he was holding.

Where the hell did he get that from?

Without thinking twice, I stepped on the gas and hit the man who was holding the gun.

But I was too late.

He already shot him.

Shit.
