chapter 1

The clouds were dark and gloomy , as if those lighting

thunder could guess the fore math of the incident

working , going out and on every few seconds ,

leaving the road to depend on an unreliable

source of light , the houses were dull and colorless ,

the whole town looked plain , empty and quite , too

quite . The rusted car drove on slowly to a

specifically darker house to deliver a person .

A person who's future is as dull as the town .

" Don't tell me we have to keep .. Keep him in the ..! "

Stuttered Peterson black ,incredulously , lavender

black stood next to her husband , dumbfounded ,

mouth slightly open , shaking her head as if waking

herself from a bad dream . Conerlad santill stood

before them , holding something in his arms , he

said " so you refused this offer ? Aren't you afraid

of what it says ? That he would seek revenge , that

" he hesitated , then continued " well , if your ready

for the consequences " he bowed slightly and made

to leave , but then he turned and said " I also admire

this act of .. Let's say ... Foolish bravery ," smiling

silently , he bowed again , quite mockingly even ,

then turned to leave " wait ! " said lavender black ,

emerging from her shock , Peterson looked at her ,

surprised , while conerlad stood at the door , lavender

shot her husband a pleading look , Peterson opened

his mouth to speak , then closed it again , conerlad

tapped his legs impatiently , Peterson hesitated

then said " ok , we will take ... Take him " .

Chapter 2

" Shut up ! You idiot ! Do you want our neighbors to hear ! "

Peterson black whispered urgently ,holding stalen by the

shirt and shaking him , stalen stared bitterly at the ground ,

muttering curses he would have loved to say out loud , " sorry "

he said bitterly , staring at ground with a piercing stare , he

pulled away and stomped of to his room l if you can call it that

" mind your stomping " Peterson called angrily after him ,

Peterson was always afraid his neighbors would hear , as he

was a proud business man , and his reputation was important

to him . He always tries not to let his anger at stalen betray

him , but it seemed impossible ,so if they ask , he would say

it was at his own son , Stan Peterson black ,who was born

after they agreed to keep stalen by 3 month , who was

named late to be similar to petersons son , to feed his

neighbors questioned curiosity . Stalen didn't have a

second name as he was an orphan with unknown parents ,

Peterson refused to name stalen by his own name and

second name so as to not ruin his prideful tittle to what

he thought was an undeserving kid .

Chapter 3

Peterson flipped through the news papers and stopped

at one page , looking confused , " lavender , lavender ! "

lavender hurried to her husband and sat down , drying

her hands on a table towel , " yes yes what is it , I still

have some dishes to wash " she said ,bending down

to pick up the dropped towel and placing it neatly

back into place ,her long wavy black hair falling

to her shoulders , " look " Peterson said , he threw

the papers to her hands , she flipped through

it while saying " what is it " anxiously , " this , this

page , he said , snatching the paper and pointing a

short stubby finger much like himself to a picture that

was suspiciously familiar , lavender peered at it for a

while then gave an audible gasp " is that .. Is that stalen ! "

lavender took the papers and read it out loud " mike

sandew , the miraculous boy who saved 22 people's

lives the past 3 years , saved yet another life 3 days ago ,

on June 7 , a young girl , aged 5 , who had attempted to

swim in the adults pool she has been warned against ,

started having troubles staying afloat " when I saw her

drowning , I knew it was up to me , there wasn't anyone

except two people , a lady who either couldn't see what

was happening or , most likely ,pretending not to see , and

a man who clearly saw what happened but was terrified of

the prospect of going in , I jumped in , and to be honest ,

it was difficult to swim with cloths not made for swimming ,

it filled up with water and weighed me down but I was

determined that nothing should stop me " says mike sandew ,

aged 12 , the mother expressed her gratefulness to us and

showed guilty signs of leaving her daughter alone , " I

greatly thank my daughters save l I don't know what I

could have done without him " the life guard has been

fired and the pool is closed until further notices , and

hopefully will open before 5 July , to know more , please

" That can't be stalen because he was with us

for the past 11 years " said lavender , " yeah

and his name certainly isn't mike " said Peterson ,

" and stalen isn't 12 years old " lavender remarked ,
