Poor dad, just rolled his eyes, and said he thought he could afford to buy me a new one, when we found a drugstore...Then I heard him mutter..."Damn goofy kid"...
Nothing much to state here, except maybe an annoying catbird that is heckling the indoor-outdoor cat NiMH. Gutsy little bird too. Screeching away less than two foot from the cat like he weas immortal or something. NiMH cat was less than impressed and yawned at the bird. (!!) The bird was apparently insulted by this and left.

Guide was breathing hard, he and Isabella had just run what amounted to a marathon to get away from some gang members that Isabella had 'dissed'.
"That's the first time I've ever vaulted over a moving car. Remind me not to do that again." Guide gurbeled between breaths. Isabella laughed. Then she stopped and loked closer at Guides' duster. She poked a finger through a hole and looked at him meaningfully. He looked down and frowned. How to explain that one...
"You can't fool me, that's a bullet hole through your jacket. How did you do that one?" she tapped her foot. He wasn't..? Was he?
He caught what she was thinking. She was right, and might freak about it. Only way to find out is to face it.
"Yes. I am. Remember that accident I had?" he stared at her. She remembered. Then she caught her hand to her throat. He'd died? How was he here then? And how did he know..?
"I work for the One. I'm supposed to help those who need it. Come with me, I'll show you." he held out his hand. She wavered. Then took his hand. They were on the way. She would do fine.
