~Ymari: Where it Started~

-A cool breeze brushes your face, you're out in the park hanging out with your friends. One of them takes out their camera and records as they walk away from your group.-

~Ymari's POV~

"Hi, there! I'm Ymari and I'm 14 years old. My friends and I have arrived here at Hollybell High, for our first year of high school, except for Noah, he's a sophomore. We all moved here together about a few months ago with the help of mine and Lilu's father. We live in this old apartment structure where much doesn't happen, or so I thought. When we arrived it was quiet and quaint. But, later on, more families moved in, they're all such a pain. It really won't be a problem now though since we start school in a few days. /Ymari would yawn/ Welp, I'm tired, I stayed up last night working on a new clothing design for my blog, but yeah, that's kinda it. Ymari logging off!" 8/24/17

I start walking back towards the gang. We set up a little picnic so we could relax and just hang out. "Hey, guys!" I wave towards them. They all respond in harmony, "Welcome back." "Heh, you finally finished that lame "vlog" so you can take off in the film world." Noah snickered as he nudged my arm as I sat down next to him. "Sure fishboy. Sure I was "vlogging"." I respond. I lean back looking up at the sky, most of us are quiet now, just relaxing. In the distance, we can hear a small boom kinda noise. We look around, getting ready to grab stuff and run. We look to our right and notice people screaming and running away from something. "Noah, pack the stuff into the duffle bag, we need to get out of here, NOW!!" I yell at him over all the screaming. Noah finishes packing the duffle bag and we book it, not knowing what's behind us. We run a few blocks before noticing the crows of panicking people was gone. We're all out of breath from how tired we are. "Hm," I thought, "We should head back to the apartment and check the news."

I unlock the door with my keys and we enter. Noah, Joon, and Lilu put down their things and flop onto our couch. Lilu grabbed the TV remote and says, "Let's see what all that was about earlier." She scrolled through the channels till we stopped on CBA news. Apparently, it was an armed person with $2,000 dollars on him. Sometimes I wonder why we chose to live here and not move back to Seattle. I lean my head onto Lilu's lap and shut my eyes...
