<span style="color: #BF40BF"><span style="font-style: italic">The morning before...</span></span><br/>The sun's rays bore into Luna's room and her bed and herself luminated. She stretched her limbs that were almost to large for her o to small twin bed. A lot of the girls from the home had found a home, besides her and a few others, so she was able to have her own bedroom. She could hear a soft argument taking place down stairs and she woundered who used up all the hot water this time,than looked at her alarm clock on the side of her bedside table and it read<span style="color: #BF0000"><span style="font-style: italic">8:30am</span></span>None of the other girls would be up at this hour, not when they didn't have to be up for school. She scrambled out of bed and quietly opened the door to see what was going on.<br/><br/>To her discovery the other girls soon heard the argument for their 'mother' housekeeper was getting rather loud with the android. They were a bit a ways from any city or town, and all of them were surprised to see an android, which they have only seen in historical books. Luna looked on as her mother and the android fought, they were wanting to take over her establishment and she wasn't having it. No android could raise them and then get them new homes, well Luna was out on the streets in less than a year if she couldn't find a home for herself. Soon the android became vary upset and knocked their mother upset the head while saying, "You must compute.." than dragged their mother out of the house.<br/><br/>They all gasped with their hands over their mouths than ran for Luna's room since it had the only window facing the front of the house. They all scrambled around the window sill trying to duck behind the curtains so the androids could not see them as they peered out the window.The android that had hit their mother was now sticking her in the back of the van and another one hopped out. The van zoomed off as the android made its way into the house and the girls ran to the edge of the stair case, where the android called to them. "Children come here." They obeyed and all single file went down the stairs, with Luna at the back of the line.<br/><br/>The android looked at them all and said, "You are now under new management, and there will be a curfew set in place. Beginning tonight, you must all be in this house before dark. Now, breakfast will be served in one hour, go get dressed and ready for the day than come back down for breakfast."<br/><br/>Luna opened her mouth to say something but than shut it and walked back up to her room and began plotting her escape. She went and took a shower in the shared bathroom all the girls had to use, she got in and out pretty quickly and as she walked back to her bedroom she could smell the delicious aromas of cooking pancakes, sausage, and fried potatoes. What a perfect meal if it wasn't an android making it. She got dressed than made her way down to the kitchen where the android was well occupied making breakfast. Soon the other girls came down as well and then the android served them. She ate quickly wanting to get out of the house and into the woods as fast as possible. She chewed quickly instead of wolfing it down and one of the other girls even finished before she did and she was dismissed to do as she pleases. Luna finished soon after the girl and she too was dismissed as she pleased. Luna ran as soon as she was out the door to her hidden area where she kept all her magical books and most secret possessions than packed them into the bag she had grabbed before she left the house.<br/><br/><br/><span style="color: #FF40BF"><span style="font-style: italic">Present time....</span></span><br/>Luna had chosen her time precisely so she wouldn't get caught, she had watched the night before how the android would take a quick 'nap' in order to re-charge it's battery. She would only have half an hour to get out and make her way to the city. They had a motor scooter in the shed but was unsure if it worked.<br/><br/>Looking out the window she threw her bag gently out the window and she watched it land softly into the bushes just below her window.She then began to climb out and attach her self like a monkey and shimmed her way down the drain pipe that ran along the side of her house.  She had used it many times before to get out when she wanted to go to her secret place. Once a good way above the ground she jumped and landed with a thud in the small bushes. She looked back up at the window to make sure no one was watching her escape, she snatched up her bag and ran for the garage in search of the motor scooter.<br/><br/>In her luck the scooter was out of gas and had accumulated lots of rust, she did how ever find an old bicycle which was in rather good shape. She pushed it out of the garage and shut the door behind her than strapped on her back and began to ride down the path away from her house.<br/><br/>Half hour later~<br/>She was pedaling as fast as she could into the deserted town, looks like the curfew had gone global she thought to herself as she pedaled for her life. She could hear the androids behind her telling her to get off the bike and come with them. She shouted at them and kept looking back at her pursuers but could not see them. As she was looking back she hadn't noticed the small curb in-front of her which caught the front of the wheel and made her topple over. Tears began to swarm in her eyes as she cried out in pain, she had scraped up her hands and knees pretty bad and soon the androids would be on her.<br/><br/>She pressed her palms together and began speaking in a weird tongue and soon purple electricity ran between them and she began to separate her palms than curled her hands which the purple electricity turned into a large ball which she then separated that as the ball was divided a small amount was held on each hand, the androids came into view and she fired one at each of them. Both head shots, she grinned to herself glad she had been practicing over the years.<br/><br/>Their heads were nothing but melted plastic, her grin was soon swiped off her face as other androids picked up the pursue, she looked around her scared and than picked up her bike and continued to ride, not really sure where to go, but her instincts told her refuge was up ahead.
