This story begins pretty sad. It's about my cousin, Willow, and how she came into my care. It all started with a phone call.....

I fumbled my phone out of my overalls pocket.

"Hello?"

"Hello, is this Ian Silver?"

"Uh, yes. Who is this?" I slid out from under the car. Felix gave me a look, but I waved him off.

"This is Willow's school. There has been an.... incident. We need you to come as soon as possible," the receptionist on the other end sounded... distraught.

"O-of course. I'll be there in a few." I hung up. I started changing, heading to the door.

"Where are you off too?" Felix asked.

"Family emergency! Sorry Felix, I got to go," I ran out quickly. God, please don't let this be what I think it is.
