She was completely silent as she walked into the library, and remained so as she looked around. She hated it here, wanted to be outside instead. She was never fond of being stuck inside. She had to though, she was stuck there due to having to find some information. What made it worse, was the fact that they were told, explicitly, to not use the internet for it. Had to use physical media - books, magazines, etc.

Letting out a string of curses that no ten year old should ever know, under her breath to not be heard of course, she looked through one of the encyclopedias while sitting on the floor between the shelves. As she was sitting there though, she paused as she heard loud footsteps.

"Huh?" She looked around, not entirely sure what it was that was to come next, but also knowing that she had to actually find out. Her curiosity wouldn't let her rest otherwise, after all.

She closed the book, put it back where she'd found it, grabbed her bag and hoisted it over a shoulder, before heading off toward the door, wondering what she was hearing. Or rather, who. She just knew that there were panicked footsteps., and no, they weren't very quiet.

Just before she got to the door, it swung open, and a very panicked boy slipped inside. He had grey eyes, jet-black hair, and pale skin. And he looked really panicked.

He looked around, before his eyes rested on the girl. He froze when he saw her... but they both then heard about a dozen footsteps headed in the same direction.

Towards them.

The boy suddenly became panicked once more, and looked around again, before noticing that the librarian was away from her desk, probably reshelving books somewhere.

He looked over towards the girl, and gulped.

"You never saw me." was all he said, before he raced over towards the desk, and hid behind it, completely out of view... as the stampeding steps seemed to come right towards the door.

She sighed before shrugging and heading back to grab the book she'd been looking through. It wasn't hard for her to figure out that he was hiding from that crowd she heard coming toward them.

"Wonder why." She muttered as she grabbed the book and made her way to one of the tables by the door and sat down. She grabbed her notebook out of her bag, a pen and started to flip through.

Might as well do some work while there.

She wasn't waiting long before they came into the room though. She looked over, and saw the group starting to look around before approaching her.

The one that seemed to be the 'leader' of the group spoke to her.

"Hey." they said.

"Did you see a boy come in here?" she asked.

"Dreamy black hair, cool grey eyes, light skin?" she asked even further.

"Wearing torn jeans and a 'Skull-Jager' tee-shirt?" another asked from behind her.

"We saw him come in this direction, is he around here?" they asked her even further.

She shook her head.

"Not that I've seen." She stated.

"I didn't even hear that door open until you guys came in." She added before shrugging.

"So unless he's walkin' through the door, instead of opening it... welll... he's not in here."

"........hm." the leader muttered.

"Oh! What about the computer lab?" one of them asked.

"He's been seen hanging around THERE a lot. AND it's close by! Just down the hall." they reasoned.

"Good idea! Let's go!" the 'leader' replied.

With that, the entire group did a 180, and raced out of the library, leaving it as silent and empty as before.

A few seconds later, the boy's head popped out from behind the desk, and his eyes scanned the area, as if to see if the coast was truly clear.

The redhead that was left thedre, just rolled her eyes. She waited a few seconds before getting t0o her feet and making her way to where he'd gone and hid.

"All right. So why are they chasing you?" she asked after a moment.

"Because I don't see any reason to. What, you brilliant or something?" She asked before pausing and looking up head to toe more closely.

". . . . or your a celebrity kid." She then said. "I get it now."

The boy was silent, but jumped a little when she guessed at the celebrity kid status.

"............mm." he mumbled.

"Yeah." he said.

"I am." he told her.

"Both my parents are famous magicians." he went on.

"Jaden Sherwood and Desiree McCormick." he said quietly.

"Yeahhhhh see, you really take after Jaden." She commented.

"But at the same time.... I can tell by your complexion, your a ginger." She added with a laugh.

"You take after your mom for colours, your dad for features." She then said.

"Or... am I wrong?"

His eyes widened when she said all she did.

"Ah... I..." he stammered.

"I mean... well..." he stuttered further.

'Okay... this is scary...' he thought.

"Y... yeah..." he said.

"I DO have my hair dyed..." he admitted.

'Should I have taken my chances with that mob?' he wondered, as he took an unconscious step back.

She just laughed.

"I don't get how we haven't seen each other for so long." She then said.

"Hey Darrel. It's Sammy. I haven't seen you for what? three years?" She asked with a laugh.

Darrell froze again.

".......wait...." he muttered.

"Wait, wait, wait... Sammy?" he asked.

"I... woah." he said, looking her over.

"You... you look really different." he commented.

"I didn't recognize you."

Sammy just laughed as she tied her firey hair back.

"Yep." She said with a nod.

"And running tends to do that." She added.

"A lot." She then added before shrugging.

"Hi. We've been in the same school for y ears... yet haven't seen each other. How the hell have we avoided people that well?" she then asked with a laugh.

"Uh... well..." Darrell stammered.

"See... I make it a point to know how to avoid people." he said.

"They just won't leave me alone." he sighed.

"So... I've learned where to hide, how to hide, and... yeah." he went on.

"But... as you've seen, it's not perfect." he then lamented.

Sammy just shrugged.

"We can team up for it, I think." She commented.

"I'll help ya hide. I know some good places." She added.

"How've you been anyway?" She asked after a moment.

Darrell just sighed a little, and smiled.

"I've been... all right." he said.

"Life's been kinda hectic, but things are okay." he went on.

"What about you?" he asked.

"How have you and your brother been?"

"We've been good." Sammy answered with a chuckle.

"He's a cat now." She added. "Takes after mom in that sense."

"I still got neither, but holy crap I'm hoping I don't end up a cat. The last thing I need is to become lazy like that." She paused for a moment, acquiring a bit of a concerned look.

"Hectic? Nothing serious I hope."

Darrell shook his head.

"No, nothing serious." he said.

"Just... everyone wants to meet my Dad. Or my Mom." he told her.

"So it's a hassle when they try and get to them through me, or think that if they act like my friends, then they'll see them, or whatever." he sighed.

"It gets lonely sometimes..." he then admitted quietly.

Sammy just laughed.

"Yeahh..." She said before sighing.

"There's... a certain degree of that, that I know of. Mom bein' an artist and all." She said before shrugging.

"Regardless, we can probably hide well enough together, methinks. And worst case scenario, I can get you rhidden. I'm prety freaking fast."

"Heh." Darrell chuckled.

"Thanks." he said.

"And... well, for your sake, then, I hope you don't become a cat." he told her.

"Just because... well, you don't want to." he reasoned.

"So..." he then said.

"What are you doing here?" he asked.

"Got work to do on a project?"
