"Nothing...particular"
  
"Now really"

"Really Ma you know that I get frustrated in the littlest things, it was my fair share my revenge. He opened his dirty mouth, I told the truth"

   "Come here child"

I crept over the soft velvet rug, and there she was, she had breaded up,
Her black hair into a bun. She was sitting down on a couch. "Now Jane I have told many times to stay out of trouble" she said disappointed,
"Do you understand?"

I didn't replie and stared at the rug silently, she took my silence as a 'Yes'. "Ok, Jane....now remember, always be patient and quick in making your moves, or else it will to late" she said.
I nodded in agreement."So...Jane" Mom said I looked up confused. She continued.
"I have gotten you a body guard" she said.
"W-wait what! Mom I don't need one" I replied. What happened to 'Jane your a strong independent woman and need no man to take over for you!' What had happen....The last time me and my mother trusted a man he left us and we could never recover.

"Mom why-"
"Child I have my reasons, he will come tomorrow in the evening"
"Its a he-"
"That's enough!" She looked annoyed. So
I made my way out of the room and into the kitchen to get a granola bar and went to sleep as the darkness started to swallow up the hall way.

I woke up with the slight sound of ringing, it was morning another day in a sh!t hole. I put on some ripped Jean's, black jean jacket and a black shirt.
I ate breakfast and headed out to the  refugee center.  When I got there I was already greeted by Charly and his friends. It was a few punches, but I was ok, but I knew it wouldn't be the end yet. The day passed and it was almost sunset. Charly right one time.
"Hey listen Charly before you before you maul me-" I said
" Maul you, you' d probably maul me and that's why I brought this" he said he pulled out a small hunting blade
That when I knew he was serious about everything.
"You don't need to do this, I came back here to apologize."
"Apologizing isn't gonna get you anywhere"
So, this is what Mom told me about be quick or else it will be to late. I mean society doesn't want me right? He will probably be a hero. I want him to be happy. I saw every thing go slow a he lunged towards me, all I could do was scream, couldn't hurt him again. I closed my eyes to brace myself.

But instead of feeling pain, there was nothing. I opened my eyes to see a tall figure of a man who had such beautiful gray eyes that gave off such dominance, he had a good muscular build up as well his hair was a mix between black and brown. His hair was a Slick Undercut that had been put in a small man bun. He had a tattoo of black Rose's along his muscular arm.
He had a deep, mature, smooth voice.
"It isn't good to hurt, a girl you know" he said. It was pleasing to see Charly's face in agony for once.
"Hey" he continued

"My name is Ryter, does Jane Zyne go here?
