*The youngest one, Krista, sucks her thumb while clutching the hand of her older sister Libby. She looks at her clothes wide eyed. Suddenly she blurts out,* "Mommy go bye bye!" *Her eyes fill with tears. *Libby picks her up and gives he a hug.* "Its ok." she says softly. *Tyson, the oldest of the three looks at you unsure.* "Thank you for your help, but we must be on our way." *Starts to walk away. Libby bites her lip.* "Wait Tyson, we need help, we can't keep walking my legs hurt really bad, besides, this lady seems nice. Please Tyson? Please?" *Tyson looks back and forth between Lira and his sisters, he shifts the bag he is holding from one shoulder to the next, finally he says, "I suppose, it wouldn't hurt to stay for little while..." *Libby smiles with relief and sets Krista down. Krista grabs hold of Libby's hand again and looks at Lira with her big green eyes.* "Um..Lira, was it? Well my lady, we come from the village of Canama, we were born there, our mother, Kara Lawless worked in a tavern down there, don't know who our father was, never met'em. But ma says he's a no good lyin thief. Ma worked night and day in exchange for a small room above the tavern. We weren't allowed out of that room except for on Sundays, ma let us go to church and then we were free to play outside the rest of the day, we didn't go to school but ma brought home things for us to read and I got the hang of it, I've been teachin Libby how to read to. Ma wasn't very nice to us, she hit us when we didn't obey, said if we ever went outside 'cept for on Sundays she'd give us a whippin. But one day, two months and 9 days ago, ma took us for a walk in the woods, it took a long time to get to them woods, ma blind folded us, said there was a big surprise. Finally, after some time we stopped and she took of the blind folds, we were in a dark forest, the sun barely shown through all of the branches, there ma told us she hated us, we meant nothin to her.." *Tyson's eyes fill with tears and he chokes back a sob.*
"Ma told us we had to 'scram,' said she never wanted to see our faces again. I asked her why and she yelled at me and pushed me so hard I fell backwards into a stream, once I had gotten back up she was standing in front of us, holding a gun, she held it up in the air and shot it, the gunshot rang through the first like a voice rings through a mountain. Then she started backin away, she held the gun in front of her, said if we moved one bit she'd shoot us all. Then she was gone, just like that. We've been trying real hard to..." *Breaks off and starts to cry.*
