   The night finally fell. The entire time while waiting Star would fly and grab a fish for Victor, too scared to go into the house in the daylight.
     "So," the girl spoke causally, "I'm gonna have to do something dangerous. Break in. This is my dad's. I can mabey get a few previsions and a bag to carry them in. If i'm lucky. And if I get caught. Run." She took a deep breath and walked in, Victor looking scared the entire way. Star used a key to get inside from the backyard, which is where they landed. She sneaked in and grabbed food and water and some sort of plastic bag.
When she started to head out she heard the loading of a gun. She knew who that was. She transformed back into a dragon quickly and breaks through the door outside.
"RUN!!" She yells at Victor. "HIDE!"
     Victor bolted past the side of the house and ran onto the street.
      BANG!
     A gunshot pierced the night like a knife through butter. Victor ran even faster down the road and didn't look back. He knew Star would be ok. Wouldn't she? He started to panic. She wasn't coming.
