"This will be exiting!" My mom squealed as we entered the small town of Skykeys. "Right," I sighed. I wasn't really paying attention to whatever was coming out of her mouth. She was acting a little to perky for it to be real. "Hey its going to be alright," She smiled at me softly. I smiled back. The town looked okay. It had a bit of a big city theme to it. "Apartment or house?" I asked her. "House! I found one we could afford and I am so proud of myself," she winked. I laughed at her. We drove through the streets and people started looking at us. I shrunk down slightly. I guess they aren't used to strangers. We finally arrived at a small house next to a few slightly larger ones. It actually looked nice. It had a black paneled roof, a chipped porch, a few windows complete with curtains and shutters, the wall colors had a black and white theme to it but the door was dark red. The front yard had a few patches of dead grass and the garden was empty. "Nice catch mom," I whistled as I lugged my bags inside. "You get first dibs on bedrooms!" She called as I walked inside. I took of my sneakers and rolled my suitcases inside. I quickly spotted the stairs and began pulling my stuff up them. Finally I reached the top sweating like crazy. I looked around for a good sized room. I took the first one in the hall right across to the bathroom. The walls were painted a light sky blue. I also had a fairly large window with black curtains. The floor had glazed maple wood flooring. I dropped my stuff inside and went outside to get my other things that we trailed behind in a trailer.

We finished getting everything inside by the evening. "I'm exhausted, I'm going to head to bed," I started heading upstairs when my mom grabbed my shoulder. "Hold up I need to tell you this towns rules so I don't have to pick you up from the police station," she chuckled taking out a piece of paper. "They actually have a set of rules?" I asked shocked. "I guess so. Listen carefully.

This is to avoid kidnappings, car accidents, and to save on electricity.
Please stay out of the forest, lake, and mountains.
There is a high potential for animal attacks,drownings, avalanches, e.c.t
Please do not leave out your garbage, recycling or alcohol bottles at night. The garbage will be picked up on Monday afternoons at 12:00pm.
This is to keep animals out of the town.
If you are a Day student please stay in the Day school and if you are a Night student please stay in the Night school.
If you cannot abide by these rules please leave the town of Skykeys. Or you will be charged and deported.
Signed the mayor of Skykeys," mom finished. "That's a lot to take in," I sighed. They even have a curfew. "We can keep this on the fridge so we can remember them. Because I found a good paying job here I would rather not lose," she grinned. "Also could you go food shopping tomorrow?" She asked. I nodded and went to my new room to sleep. I lay on my bed for a while. I stared at the ceiling. I tried to get the image of flames out of my head as I closed my eyes. But nightmares never seemed to want to show me what I wanted them to show me. That can be so frustrating sometimes.
