   In the heart of Georgia rests the city Atlanta. It holds all kinds of neat and wonderful things, but we won't be focusing on all that. We're going to be taking a look at a small small family, that lives in the heart of the city.

?: "ELIZABETH!!!!" {Her mom shouted from down stairs, startling her daughter awake.}

Elizabeth: "Y-YES MA'AM!?"

Mother: "CAN YOU COME DOWN HERE REAL QUICK?"

Elizabeth: {Yawns while stretching her arms.} "OKAY I'LL BE THERE IN A MOMENT!"

Mother: "PLEASE DON'T TAKE TO LONG!"

Elizabeth: "ALRIGHT!"

   Elizabeth is up stairs chilling in her room. Her room has white walls with various posters of video games, TV shows and movies. She's sitting in front of her vanity that's in the far left corner next to her bathroom door.

  Elizabeth is checking her self in the vanity's mirror. She's wearing a black long sleeve shirt with blue skinny jeans. Her shoulder length brown hair is being a crazy mess as usual.

Mother: "HURRY UP PLEASE!" {She sounds annoyed...}

Elizabeth: "OH YEAH, SORRY!"

   Elizabeth snaps back to reality and runs to her closet to grab her favorite flannel hoodie thing. She throws it on as she jumps down two stairs at a time to try and get down them faster. She's two stairs up from the bottom when her silver cat Ivan grabbed the bottom of her right pants leg sending her sliding down the last two stairs. Dixie, her white boxer dog takes note of her aggravation and chases off after Ivan. Dixie trots back into view and walks up to Elizabeth. Elizabeth rubs her dogs head, Dixie approves of her pets and leaves.

   Elizabeth stands up and grumbles to herself as she's rubbing her rump, its still sore after that fall. She takes a look around her surroundings to see if she can spot her mom.
  
  On her left is the entrance to the family room, and on her right is the kitchen. She decides to make her way into the kitchen feeling kind of peckish. She looks around the kitchen taking notice of everything that's there. There's the usual stuff like oak cupboards, a pantry, a double sink that's over loaded with dishes, and a island that's decorated with various fruits and veggies. Oh! Also the fridge! You can never forget the fridge.

   Elizabeth walks over to the fridge taking a look at how its covered in magnets from many different states. She grabs the fridge door handle and pulls open the fridge door and looks for something to snack on. She spots a fresh package of string cheese sticks and goes for one. She closes the door behind her with her foot and attempts to open her snack. To no avail it didn't open, its sucks having no nails. So she bites the plastic and tears it open with her teeth. Success! Its open. Elizabeth takes a bite of cheese savoring its flavor.

Elizabeth: "MA!?" {She half shouted.}

   She listens to her surroundings, it was quiet, too quiet... She takes another bite of cheese and decides to leave the kitchen and head towards the Family room.

Elizabeth: "MOM WHERE ARE YOU?!" {Her voice slightly reverberating throughout each room. She takes another bite of cheese.}

Mother: "Behind you."

   Elizabeth whips around to face her Mom. She's wearing a green t-shirt with blue jeans and has her brown hair up in a loose bun. Her hazel green eyes bright with life and enjoyment.

Elizabeth: "DON'T DO THAT!!" {She says with her hand over her heart.}

Her mom is turning red and bursting with laughter.
