A Doctor Meeting

The middle of New Orleans was a bustling, thriving, always alive community. Never stopping, never sleeping, this city was known for it’s extravagant parties and celebrations. Even in the off season it was still a major tourist trap.

Amanda was rushing down the busy sidewalk, trying to get home before her little cousin got off the school bus. She rounded the corner and ran right into a taller, slightly older man, causing the both of them to fall to the ground.

“Oh my gosh! I am sooo sorry.” She got up and tried to help the other adult off the ground. “I- I was just in such a hurry and I didn’t see you there.”

A friend in need

"Some guy named Servantis," Helen explained. "I can’t even tell you all the horrible stuff that’s happened." She let herself get hugged. "It’s not really that bad, though. I remember that I was really happy when they kidnapped me. I was an orphan back then, well actually I still am, so it was really nice being around a bunch of other kids where I could eat and play as much as I wanted to. Except for when we were doing stuff for Servantis."

She leaned her head against Amanda’s shoulder. “I’m not really sad, or anything. It’s just that it felt lonely in the apartment. Cooper’s doing Plumber stuff, Alan’s at his farm, and Manny’s playing Call of Duty. And I really wanted to be with a friend.”

Amanda ran her thumb over Helen's cheek as she listened intently. She still disliked the idea of someone kidnapping people and mutating them for their own wants and desires. It just left a bad taste in her mouth for some reason.

"I suppose it's pretty awesome you got the chance to be with others and accepted. I know what it's like to be the odd kid out, though I've only had the misfortune of loosing one of my parents." She sighed and nuzzled against her friend, still feeling rather protective of her. As childish as Amanda was, she was rather maternal when it came to people she cared about.

"Oh! Helen! I went back to New Orleans and got my cousin. I'm actually considering adopting him cause my aunt left him alone in the house again."
