~10 years later~

Zak had just woken up. It was the big day. The day he had been waiting for forever. He jumped up out of his bed and ran to his window.

~Zak's POV~

"Finally! I get to go out there! I get to play with everyone!"

I'm not really sure why I never got to go out there. My parents say the people across from us want to kill me. I just want to know what kill means.

"Zakkkkkkkkk" my girlfriend walks in the room. I'm not sure what a girlfriend is, my parents say she is my soulmate. I'm not very sure what that is either. She's really annoying I wish she'd leave me alone.

"Yeah?" I say back, still looking out my window and daydreaming.

"You get to go outside today with me!" She said excitedly, wrapping her arms around me.

"That's cool and all, but you want to know who I really wanna play with" I ask, turning to face her.

"Who?"

"Him" I turn to the window, pointing at a boy from the house across ours.

"But your father said no. You'll get in big trouble! Just play with me pleaseeeeeeee" she said, tugging at my arm.

"I don't wanna" I say, crossing my arms and turning away.

"But I'm your girlfriend you don't have a choice" She said angrily.

"Alright, fine" I say, standing up.

I then ran away as fast as I could. There's no way I'm going outside with her. No way.

I ran and ran, making it outside the castle, going around it to sneak past the guards, I know they wouldn't let me go to the destination I wanted to reach. I eventually made it to the house across from mine and....

"HEY! THERE HE IS! GET HIM" one of the guards from the house yelled. They started chasing after me and I didn't know where to go.

~Darryl's POV~

"HEY! THERE HE IS! GET HIM" I heard one of my family's guards yell. I turned to them and saw a boy around my age, running to the back of my house.

"Why are they chasing him" I wonder, running the opposite way. I want to help him.

I reach the cellar just in time, which is hidden by bushes, making it the perfect hiding spot.

I wait for him to come near me, then pull him into the cellar. I close the door and then we stand there.

"WHERE'D HE GO?" I hear a guard yell. "HE MUST'VE WENT INTO THE FOREST, LET'S GO"

I hear the other boy sigh in relief.

"Are you okay?" I ask him, sitting down beside him

"Yeah, I'm alright now" he said, still breathing heavily.

"Why were they chasing you?"

"My father says they want to kill me, I'm not sure what that is but it sounds bad"

"If they kill you it means you'll be gone forever and never see your family ever again" I explain it how my own father told me, hoping it makes sense.

"B-but I don't want that to happen" he says, starting to tear up.

"Don't worry it won't just be more careful" I say, reassuring him. "What's your name by the way?"

"Zak. Yours?"

"Darryl."

"I have to go though, I'll come back tomorrow I promise" he says, standing up and walking up the stairs.

"Okay! Just be careful, go around the house" I say. I hope we can be friends.
