"We're hoooooome!" Toby calls as soon as he pulls me into a medium sized house. It was made of wooden planks, modestly blending into the surrounding woodland. A girl and a boy poked their heads out of separate rooms, then smiled and emerged.

He wore an old sweatshirt, ripped jeans, and had bare feet. This guy couldn't be more than seventeen, and he looked oddly familiar... And so did the girl.
