<P.O.V.: ???, Location: Alleyway on Mobil> Date: Monday November 10th, Year 20k,Time: Noon

I walk from Family to Family...

Fargo Family Member: Get lost Squirt! 

I got kicked out the door I fall in the muddy slush in my tattered clothing .

Young ???: Ahhh...! Owe...!

As it is getting cold I hold my fluffy teddy I kept as its the only thing I own. I crawl and huddle in an alleyway and try to sleep.

Young ???: *crying...* Why won't anyone take me... *stomach growling*... Ooooohh... 

<P.O.V.: Arcoos>

Arcoos: Oh why Thank you Gerald.

Gerald: No problem Arcoos. Anything for a Deity. Say have you found anyone for your Family? A lot of Gods are taking in a lot of members.

Arcoos: I'll think about it... I think the right person will show themselves to me eventually.

Gerald: One person isn't going to get your name on the map.

Arcoos: Well... that remains to be seen. But thank you for your service. Tip is on the table.

Gerald: Any time, Arcoos.

I head down back to my house, I walk 7 Blocks down as I approach Mobil street.

Young ???: Why won't any one take me. Teddy?

I pause... I look towards my right.

Arcoos: Are you alright little one?

Young ???: Teddy?! You can talk!?

Arcoos: Sorry my dear.  Look up.

The little Girl looked up at me.

Young ???: AAAAAHHHHHH!!! A Monster!!

Arcoos: Don't be frightened. I am Arcoos.

Young ???: Argoose?

Arcoos: Hahaha... Its alright you can call me Argoose if it makes you feel better.

Young ???: Argoose... your not going to eat me or Teddy? Are you?

Arcoos: No... I overheard "no one was taking you." What do you mean?

Young ???: No God's Family Members will take me in. The God's have been around for so long.

Arcoos: Have you met with any God's themselves?

Young ???: I don't know...?

Arcoos: Hey... little one.

I reveal my right skeletal hand. Her small hand earnestly leaped into mine. I close my grip enough to make sure I know she's there.

Arcoos: Don't cry, little one. Come and be apart of my family. I am the God of Knowledge Arcoos.

<P.OV.: ???, Location: Arcoos' Home> Time: 12:20pm

Young ???: Arcy... is that you home?

Arcoos: Yes...

I let the little girl into my home.

Young ???: Oh wow!! *stomach growling*... Arcoos did you buy anything to Eat.

Arcoos: Yes I did actually. Even though I'm just bones... I still have my senses so I need to eat. Besides Human food tastes good.

Arcoos prepared  me a small meal but I energetically ate it, the best Lunch I ever had.

Young ???:  *yawns...* Arcy...
