Isaac Avery.

B-blood…….n-no…

[isaacaveryavar]

I think I know what happened, something to do with a young lady and some man saved her. But, that might not be the right place, I thought it was further in town. Maybe a pigeon got hit or something...

Isaac. [he thinks for a fleeting moment] You’re loyal and accountable only to yourself. Find ways to own the world you live in, and you won’t have to be afraid anymore, Isaac.

[isaacaveryavar]

I've spent so long in fear to live for myself, it seems a distant memory now. I fought hard not to die, yet, I don't know how to live, it seems. How do you own anything?

[isaacaveryavar]

[he shrugs] It’s your choice. My name’s Dimitri. Remember it. Names can mean a lot in this city.

I'm Isaac, but, although I will remember it, you don't seem overly bothered by these things. How do I stop caring the way you do?

Alright… If you’re desperate enough, come in, I can’t promise my company will be the best though.

I wouldn't want to put you out of your comfort zone, that would be very rude of me, b-besides, I should probably find that girl, check that she's, still running.

[isaacaveryavar]

They’re all actively hunting you down? How can you be sure, other than these promises they told you. I don’t like to keep strangers in my home, there are lots of shelters and safe houses in New York City, if you’re having trouble with work. Whether you like it or not you’ll have to fend for yourself one of these days, it might do you some good.

i don't need somewhere to live permanently, I just need somewhere to be when I'm not working or sleeping. I have a, really shabby, place to live, I just get so scared during the day. I know they're looking for me, they followed me to the last place I lived, if it wasn't for a group of boys who helped push them back, I'd have been killed. That Sacha girl promised me a place to go during the evening, but, when I went there, she wasn't around and I felt like I was intruding.

[isaacaveryavar]

You’re not trapped anymore. You can go as far as you want. So you need someplace to say, is that it?

If I go to far, I'll slip up, and be captured, like my mother was. Yes, I suppose I do, but, I would hate to intrude on anything or anyone.

[isaacaveryavar]

If you accepted your fate you’d still be back there. That’s some crap advice. If she’s sick she might not let you stay with her now. Sounds like she needs a doctor.

Well, he was a strange fellow, he hung out with this weedy guy who was big into poetry and claimed to see into the future. I always thought he was really cool, but, I bet he was just as trapped as I was, or, am. I don't think I could help her, I don't know any doctors, I tend to stay away from them, I wasn't allowed to be near one.

[isaacaveryavar]

Born into that mess, I’m sorry. … Sasha? I know her [he laughs] Wait, she’s sick?

it's alright, I guess. I just need safety, and as someone once told me, I need dignity and the will to accept my date, but I can never find it within myself. Well, yes, something happened with her heart, that's honestly all I know.

[isaacaveryavar]

I’m sure. Were you in some kind of containment camp? Can you remember her name?

No, I was in a gang, my dad was born into it and my mother was forced into it. I wasn't strong enough to be a high ranking member so I was under everyone's commands. I knew it wasn't normal and I had to get away, but now I'm here, I'm still living in fear. Her name was Sasha, or something of that nature. I heard she took ill, but haven't seen her.

[isaacaveryavar]

You’re a tad bit paranoid. Alright, I happen to be a guy who helps people in your sort of situation. What exactly do you need by means of protection?

if you'd been through it, you'd be like I am. It was so bad, I was only allowed outside once every few days, when I had permission. Sometimes I didn't eat,I didn't sleep or talk to other people. I need to be hidden away, away from gangs and Campion, and, I suppose I should find that lady...

[isaacaveryavar]

Well keep moving then, but it really doesn’t matter, there are gangs pretty much everywhere in a city. You sound like you’re from far away, I don’t see how that guy could find you.

You don't understand, they'll never give up. A pretty girl around here offered me protection, but, I haven't seen her in a while now, I don't know what. Happened to her. I am from far away, I ran half the world over.

[isaacaveryavar]

Are you in trouble with one? … I’ve never heard of a Campion and I know of most people. Relax, you think I’d let that happen on my watch?

I-I'm a traitor, I was punished for trying to run away. Campion was merciful, he slashed my arms, but, I ran away again and of he finds me, I've been told he will kill me. I simply can't stay here if there's gangs...

[isaacaveryavar]

There’s blood on the street, right here. I wonder what happened. D-Do you know?

It’s a rough neighborhood. I’d guess it’s gang related, probably just a scuffle, then a bloody nose.

G-Gang related? I can't stay here...I'll be killed. Campion could be here, he'll cut my ears up and slit my throat, he promised.

There's blood on the street, right here. I wonder what happened. D-Do you know?

"I have, my grandparents live next to this small crop, it was a beautiful sight," He reminisced with tear-bright eyes. But before the stranger noticed, he wiped any sign of crying away, huffing. "Thanks for asking, brings back so many memories." 

[isaacaveryavar]

"I only ever got to see it, never got to experience having muddy shoes and dirty hands myself, but, I used to see other kids running around without a car in the world, made me awful jealous. One day, I'd like to retreat to the country, I just can't afford it as yet." Isaac dropped all eye contact, feeling rather foolish for even beginning to think he could have a good life for himself, that may be okay for others, but not him, he was sure his nightmare would never end.

Gabriel looked down at the pages—there wasn’t much he could do with them now that he’d determined all the listings were to pricey, “Sorry…Didn’t mean to be…take them, I don’t need them.”

[isaacaveryavar]

"Th-Thanks.." he slowly slide a page towards himself and studied it. "I-I'm looking for somewhere with more greenery, what are you looking for?"
