"Sair, if you don't get your butt down here this instant, I'm going to call off your gymnastics practice this afternoon!"

Blinking her sleepy eyes awake, Seyr looked at the time and gasped. `Dammit, I'm late! I was supposed to walk to school with Yako this morning. Maybe if I hurry, I could catch up.'

Leaping out of bed and into her school uniform, Seyr shoved her school books into her bookbag hoping that they were the right ones. She ran down the stairs, hugged her father good-morning, and snatched a sweetroll from the bowl on the kitchen table. `I need to make some more sweetrolls this afternoon.' Hastily putting on her shoes, Seyr sprinted down the street to catch up with a young man with blond hair but had silver bangs. "Hey, wait up, Yako!"

When she finally caught up, Yako asked in his usual nonchalant way, "So, are we still on for tonight, or did your dad plan something really special?"

After catching her breath, Seyr replied, "Sure, you know that my dad has the night shift this month. Besides which, didn't we schedule it last week?"

"Yeah, I know, but you were late this morning, so I thought that maybe your dad had told you something about a new plan or something."

"No, I just overslept a bit."

"Well, I can get away with being tardy today because there's an assembly for my grade and they don't check to see if everyone's there until after the whole thing."

"I know, I know! But, I've got the stealth skills. So, I'm cool."

Jumping lightly into a nearby tree, Seyr began to sneak to school. Yako continued to walk by himself. Farther up the street, a tall guy with black bangs covering one red eye looked back at Yako. Seyr gracefully leapt from tree to tree like a squirrel. Landing on a branch over the guy, they all heard a crack.

SNAP!

THUD! Seyr landed on top of the guy. Hastily getting up, the guy shouted angrily, "Hey! Watch where you're falling!"

Although not as hastily, Seyr got up and started dusting off her uniform. `Oh dear, now I need to stop by the drycleaners. Hmm, who's that? Must be a new guy, but I haven't heard about any new people moving into this town.'

A little too calmly, Seyr asked the guy, "Are you new? Because I've never seen you before."

"Yeah, I'm new. Do you know a Seyr? I'm looking for her because her father wants her back home. He says she ran away recently and that she looks about your age."

Yako, coming out of his hiding place, replied, "Well, if she's our age, then she'll be at our school."

Seyr, getting excited, inquired, "Did you say Sair? As in S-A-I-R, because that's what my closest friends call me. It's short for Sarah."

"No, no, no, no, no, no! Seyr as in S-E-Y-R. That's the whole name unless you want to count last names."

Laughing, Seyr dragged the new guy and Yako to the dry cleaners to clean off her uniform.
