KATRINA SAYS HI -----------------------------------------------------------
Katrina walked down the pebbled street, her eyes darting everywhere. This was a dangerous part of town, and she didn't want to accidentally walk somewhere that was some part of a weird gang's territory. She was annoyed with her mother, therefore she was out here, in the cold wind, all alone. Some day.
Grumbling, she stared contritely at the ground, and the leaves blowing across it. Fall was soon to be over, and winter was coming. A few people were still out cleaning up their shops and waiting for the next day, but there weren't any that Katrina knew. She knew that moving here had been wrong. If only they could have stayed in China. At least there, she would have had a friend, and could have related to someone. Here, she had nothing. Except for her mother and older brother, of course, but what did they count?
"Life sucks," Katrina mumbled over her scarf, eyes glaring. Hopefully she'd find someone to talk to, and not be bored to death in this stupid place.

Sarah looked to her left and to her right. A shadow! Sarah had woken up early in the morning to spend the morning looking for a murderer. She rushed over, barely able to stop when she bumped into a girl that looked older than her. The girl seemed to be unhappy and a little cold, too. She doesn't seem to be a murderer, thought Sarah, And she looks kind of lonely, maybe I should investigate if she IS the murderer. "Hi", said Sarah happily, "I'm Sarah. You haven't happened to see a murderer, did you? I don't want to be caught!"

KATRINA SAYS HI -----------------------------------------------------------
Katrina had made her second round across the small clearing when a small orange-haired girl bumped into her, maybe five or six years younger than her. She had been grumbling about her parents, and was about to glare all her annoyance at the kid when she decided it would probably be wrong to do that. After all, it wasn't the girl's fault. It was her mother (that annoying old lady) - and it was her fault. No one had made a problem but her, and she was going around blaming others.
Still thinking that, Katrina relaxed her face as much as she could, eyes melting into a happy shape. She glanced down at the younger girl, hoping that she didn't portray her anger in her facial features. Definitely didn't want to scare the girl. "Hello, she said gently. "I'm Katrina, it's nice to meet you, Sarah!" she told her again.
"Umm... no, I haven't seen any murderers," she muttered. Was this supposed to be some sort of game? Because she was quite sure there weren't supposed to be murderers around here. "Where are your parents... and what are you doing here?" she asked. She didn't want to be accused of kidnapping from her stupid mother, now would she? Needless to say, the woman would probably go flying through the roof if she heard she'd been with another kid outside of her school. The paranoid person. Stopping her train of thought, she waited for the girl's response.

"Nice to meet you, too!" said Sarah, curtsying. Her pouffy maroon dress with its pink frills and ice blue ribbons had been made for that curtsying, so it was a waste not to. "My parents are in the mansion, and I'm here to kill a murderer." "Its for training." added Sarah when she saw Katrina staring at her. "Oh, don't worry, its probably not real, and I'm here to protect you if they are here." Sarah's face darkened. "I hate murderers. My father was killed by one and I don't want anyone to suffer like my mom did." DUN DUN DUN

KATRINA SAYS HI -----------------------------------------------------------
The girl - Sarah, her name was, Katrina reminded herself. She curtsied. How old was that? That was a tradition almost only used in one house - the royal family. So she was part of the royal family? Well, that was a new thing. Since when did people from the royal family come to random places like this, in Europe? That was very unlikely, but who knew? Maybe the kid really was searching for a murderer. If so, did that mean there was a murderer around this town... oh god. Her mother would freak if she knew.
"This is training?" Katrina raised a skeptic eyebrow at the other girl, and she felt that this was questionable. Really, training a kid like this was weird. "If it's not real, then why are you here in the first place?" She said again, her voice full of skeptical.
As she heard the young girl confess her father was killed by a murderer, Katrina slowly understood. "Oh... you don't want anyone else to get hurt, huh." She decided not to enlighten Sarah that she couldn't protect everyone from getting hurt. There were going to be people who got hurt. "So, any special skills you have to get rid of this murderer?" Katrina asked, this time curious about the girl. What kind of skills could one perform in such a restricting dress?

"Oh, yes, but they aren't anything to brag about." said Sarah, "I've only got super strength and willpower. I mean everyone has will and I haven't completely mastered my strength yet. And the murderer is probably my teacher trying to catch me off guard and report any signs of not being brave to my mother." Sarah stared at Katrina while she was speaking and saw signs of suspicion and happiness. "Don't worry, your my first friend!I wouldn't lie to you!" Sarah looked at her clothes and noticed that while most of Katrina's clothes were streaked with mud and grass stains, her boots were black and shiny with glowing stripes of power. "Are those boots an ability you have?"

KATRINA SAYS HI -----------------------------------------------------------
Katrina smiled at the other girl. “That’s okay,” she said – and she meant it. Strength wasn’t something to be taken lightly, and it wasn’t as if willpower was easy to obtain either. She knew that plenty of people succumbed under torture, and in a world full of people (some of who had innate powers), it wasn’t easy to survive. Much less be the heir to a royal family. And still survive. This little girl must have quite a bit of power.
“Oh… the murderer isn’t that dangerous, then?” Katrina murmured. That was good. It wasn’t like her mother would appreciated a murderer lurking around the town. And plus, she’d more likely start screaming like a banshee. To say the least – her mother and herself didn’t have very good relationships. It was more like a horrible relationship, but Katrina shrugged that off.
“Is your mother hard on you?” Katrina asked again. She wondered if other people had the same situation with her parents as she did. Hopefully they didn’t, but there were always a few who did. Or maybe more than a few, she didn’t quite know. There were always the few who had problems with their family, and unluckily for her, she was one of the few.
Nodding at Sarah’s observation, Katrina grinned. “My boots. They’re my favorite ability,” she told her, true happiness shining in her eyes. “I can fly with them, though sometimes I get tired,” she smirked. That wasn’t quite true – she got tired with them, but she didn’t really feel it. She could fly for hours and have fun even after. Being like a bird helped her relieve the stress put between her mother and herself. Her father (the coward) wasn’t much of a help, but at least her brother was decent, if a bit too clingy. “I know you wouldn’t lie to me,” she told Sarah warmly. It was kind of worrying that she was the first friend the smaller girl had though…

"My mother is a little hard in the lessons and she pushes a lot, but when we go shopping, shes actually pretty fun! I think its to make up for the hardness of being a royal family member with five other siblings that are barely related and that our father died." Sarah sighed. "You wouldn't believe how hard it is to work all day and half the night!" Sarah saw Katrina give her a look that meant 'What?' "Oh, there sure is a lot of nice clothes and food, but we have to sign papers and deal with politics and learn many,many things before becoming an adult. My grandma is stuffed with sooo much knowledge, and she is soooo boring!"

KATRINA SAYS HI -----------------------------------------------------------
"Wow...," Katrina mused. Hmm. Too bad her mother wasn't like that. She and Katrina had what could possibly be the worst relationship ever. "Five other siblings? Are they all girls?" She just had to ask that, because her only sibling was her brother and even then they weren't insanely close. She wondered if being a royal family made them closer. Probably not, since they had so much work to do... but who knew? "You work all day? Sounds harsh." It did sound harsh. Katrina had things to do most of the day.
She continued walking, eyes firmly towards the ground. "Hmm... want to go to that shop over there and chat a bit?" Katrina asked, her hand pointing towards the small cafe that was on the side and about to close. "We'd better hurry if we want to get in," she said, setting a quick pace towards the small shop.
Katrina guffawed at Sarah's talk about her grandmother. "Boring, hmm? Politics sound dreadful," she told the other girl, rolling her eyes. "I guess I'm lucky not to be royalty, then."

"My siblings aren't all girls." Sarah replied. " Two are girls and two are boys and working all day is harsh, but we support each other." Sarah turned to look at the shop and nodded. "Race you!" she yelled rushing towards the shop with strength and will. She sat down at a cone-shaped tabled. "Politics are dreadful, but I guess I have a lot of nice food and clothes to make up for my hard work." Sarah waved her hand. "Gimme a cream soda and strawberry ice cream in a cone with chocolate chips on top!" Sarah glanced at Katrina and said, "I'll pay."

KATRINA SAYS HI -----------------------------------------------------------
"Wow... that's a lot of siblings though, still...," she told the jumpy girl. Although she may be a bit annoying, she was certainly better than her mother. Her mother... was hard to stand, at the very least. "Hey, that's not fair," she yelled, then sprinted after the girl. It was a good thing she was good at running, she thought. The kid was fast for her age. But she did practice on her boots every once in a while, and they were fun to fly on, so naturally she used lots of energy, but so? Running was easy for her, and fun.
"Politics do sound dreadful," Katrina muttered. She couldn't imagine days and days of work. Paperwork. Baaaaaaaaad. "Although I admit having good food and clothes would be nice," she said, tapping her hand on the table. "Fine," she agreed to Sarah's little saying she'd pay, "But next time, if we do meet - I'm paying." It wasn't like she didn't have money. That'd be stupid. And dumb, not to mention a whole lot of other words.
"I'll have a cookies n cream cone, please," she said to the waiter, then settled down and looked at Sarah. "So, what do you like to do?" She asked, sipping at the water the waiter had given her, for the short wait the ice cream would take.

"I like to read, draw, bike, cook, fight, eat, sing and play. Would you like to have a battle one of these days?" Sarah asked. It wasn't like she didn't have time and her mother would probably love it if she made a friend. "Oh, and I like to swim." Her ice cream had arrived and she was licking and chomping and biting before the ice cream even melted one drop. Before long, Sarah was done with her ice cream and started slurping the cream soda. "Aaahhh." sighed Sarah, "It feels so nice to slurp."
