There are millions of people day by day who live an upsetting life that's filled with bad choices, but that doesn't necessarily make you a bad person right? I believe that everyone has there own sort of "lime light" or a brightness deep down inside of you that withholds happiness and who you actually are as a person. Finding the light inside yourself can be very rewarding to yourself and others, but sometimes, all it takes is a little help from someone.

Epilogue

My heartbeat pounds slower and slower ;That is all I hear. Thoughts in my head are racing around fast rendering me not able to keep up with the pace.

All that is on my mind is "what happened?" , "Where am I?" "Where is she?"; she? Who is she? Why am I seeing this woman in my mind but I can't remember her name?

"Ah!" I scream as a jolt of energy shoots through my body throwing my chest upward. For a brief moment I had thought I heard the word "Clear!" Being shouted but it was most likely my mind playing tricks on me.

I have been in this mental state for awhile now, always passing out and waking up in odd places nowhere near where I was before, but this time it's different.

----------------------------------------------Chapter 1. Kaiden.

"Son, I'm going to have to ask you to get up and leave the premises immediately, you are disturbing the peace." An officer says as he lightly kicks at my side to roll me over. "Where am I?" I asked wearily. "Why your at Summers Eve Park in downtown Seattle?" He said questionably. I stand up and gather my belongings that seem to have been tossed into every direction and I start to quickly walk off. "Son are you sure you . .. " and the officer is gone

Still tired from my uncomfortable supposed rest, I walk into the bakery almost tripping on the oddly slanted door step. "Kaiden!" A black haired female chef shouts happily, "How are you?", "where have you been?", "let me grab you a little something baby cakes!". she tosses an over sized croissant at my shoulder as I sit down at the nearest table. "Thank you Annie!" I yell across the bakery louder then it was intended to be. "No problem, anytime baby cakes!" She replies without haste. . . . School! . . . I can't believe I forgot!

I stumble into class to see all the students eyeing me heavily. I manage to mutter the word "sorry" under my breathe while I hastily walk toward my desk only to find a brown haired woman with a very bold facial structure sitting there. The words "that's my spot man" manage to flop out of my mouth loud enough for the entire room to hear. Then all of voices within the room came to screeching halt. This women that I mistakenly insulted now looks at me dead in the eye and says in a quiet voice "I am NOT a man you little girl." Stupidly the reply came shooting out of my mouth ever so fast, without thinking I said "yeah? Well you should really get a couple different opinions on that one." Then the entire class applauded and cheered with laughter while I walked to the back of the classroom to find a seat.

Only to sit down to find that a very tall woman is hovering over me like a hawk, the very one I just insulted. My look says that I am cocky and arrogant which I'm not normally but I feel pretty great about. I stare her back right in the eyes and with a smug look I say "so you really want to go for round two?" And she picks up a text book and lays it up against my face hard. Sending me flying onto my nearby neighbors desk and I'm out cold.

----------------------------------------------

Chapter 2. Ivy

"How was your day Ivy May?". My mom asked concerned. "Well there was a bunch of stories going on all today about the fight, I wish I could've seen it. Apparently it was this tiny kid against this behemoth of a woman. So there was a clear victor in that brawl".

"Oh that's comforting..." She says nervously. "Don't worry mom, I'm safe, it was a good day in all." "Oh well good" she lets out what seemed like a big sigh of relief.

"Oh! Oh! Oh! And I saw this really cute boy today in the hallway!" She looks excited now. "Really!? What was his name? What did he look like!" As she bombarded me with questions, I cut her off and said loudly at first but then I got more an more quiet "He has blonde Curley hair, he had a very great facial structure, well mostly, and ... He was being carried out on a gurney.." She looked at me with a look of disbelief, then a look of worry, and then she just shook her head left to right saying " "what am I going to do with you Ivy May." As I throw my head back in laughter we both go to sit and watch tv.

I have a report due on current events so I said "why not turn on the news?" And again she looks at me with a look of disbelief, "who are you and what happened to my daughter" she says with a chuckle. I give her an exhausted glance and she changes the channel to what appeared to be a crime scene.

"Police have received multiple calls about disturbing noises and screams throughout the night but when they showed up there was nothing to be heard or seen." The news lady said sternly." "we have no evidence of who or what has committed this crime but there has been several dismembered bodies discovered at a motel just next to Summers Eve Park and four in intensive care." The tone of the room is now more serious. "If you have any evidence leading to this crime please call the police and report any suspicious activity."

I shut the TV off and turn around. I begin to walk up stairs and mom stops me. "Ivy? Are you ok baby girl?" " yeah I'm just going to go and take a nap." I reply wearily while I close my door and throw myself flat onto my bed and knock out.
