    I looked out my window, the rain pooring as if it was to bored to Hail or Snow. My mother came in, and gave me a kiss on the head. I was only 6 then, and i barely knew anything. She handed me a bowl a soup for my Cold, and walked to the door. "Goodnight, Leigh." She said.
    " 'night, Ma." I replied. She closed my door, the only light for me to see was my lamp on the side of my bed. I sighed, and began to gobbled down the soup when i over-heard Screams from downstairs. I dropped my soup(Which spilled on my bed), And ran down stairs. But so i wasnt seen, i stood on the corner of the stairs. A masked man held a knife to my mothers neck, my father yelling."Who are you?! Left her go!" He screamed. The man snickered and stabbed her in the chest. she fell down, my heart throbbing and ball of spit clinging in the back of my neck. He shot my father, and screamed, "Where is the MAP?!" I gulped, and tiptoed back upstairs. i Packed some blankets and a pillow in my closet, and my picture of my family. I closed the closet, and slept in my closet on that night.

    Chapter 1
    Im 14 Now, and i have a step-mother. Shes much meaner than my mom, but i really dont mind. "Leigh, Its time for SCHOOL! Get Dressed, NOW!" she yelled.
    "Ok, OK!" I retorted, and sat up. I rubbed my eyes, and looked around. I began to sob as i looked at my picture, which was dirty for years. I stood up, and cleaned my bed. I walked to my closet and mumbled a few words. "Now, which..." I hoarsly spoke. Thats when i noticed my ruffle-neck shirt and Skinny jeans. I picked them out, and got dressed. tumbling down the stairs, i grabbed the Egg sandwhich and my back-pack, and ran out the door. "Bye!" I said.
    "Bye.." Mona replied, and walked up stairs to get ready for her meeting with the cress ladys.

    Chapter 2
    At school, i noticed a lot of people, so i was mainy getting squished in the crowds. My friend, John, walked over to me. "Hey, Leigh!" He said.
    "Hi John!" I replied, and blushed. i had a crush on John, but he really never noticed. "Have you seen Drake, lately?" I shook my head simply. I wonder where he is? I thought. Just as John opened his mouth, the school bell Screeched over his voice so i couldnt hear him. He sighed, and walked off into the Science lab. I sighed too. I could still feel my parents, but i knew they were long gone.I walked off into the halls, as they got emptyer and emptyer. I walked into Math class, and sat down, my back-pack crushing my back.

    Chapter 3
    In class, my teacher, Mr. Moncro, Was talking about multiplying fractions. What am i, a baby? I thought. Mr. Moncro, was staring at me. Uh-oh, did i do something wrong? "May i speak with you in the hall, Leigh?" He asked.
    "Um...Sure?" We walked out the door and into the hall. "Where is the map?!" my heart skipped several beats as i remembered that night, when i was 6! The man had screamed the same thing. "WHERE IS IT?!" he yelled agian.
    "What map...?"
    "I know you have it..."
    "I DONT KNOW WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT!" I retorted. Thats when it happened. a flash of black light blinded me, and he had become- a wierd, vampie bat thing! He hissed, and tried to grab me. I jumped out of the way, a strange orb floating out of my pocket. It whispered in my ear.
    "Use your mind, Leigh..."
    "What...?!" I took its advice, and closed my eyes. I thought of something...A...No..What...? Thats when i got it! A dagger. Although i was to young, i drempt of it. I felt a strange grip in my hand, and opened my eyes. It had worked! I aimed, and threw the dagger at him. he couldnt dodge. it had hit his chest, and i thought of something..I closed my eyes, and pretended it was in my hand. i kept digging in him, and heard a moan. I opened my eyes, and saw him laying on the ground. he faded away, a map right were he was. I grabbed it, and opened it up. "Mon...croz..?" I read. was this the map?
