Lena Feu

"Did Hitler come to power in 1918 or 1945?"

"Neither dimwit! Hitler came into power in 1919"

"Urgghhh! This is taking too long! How bout we go out and have a break?"

I can't believe these two! Lena -the shy girl I rescued from Cory- left about two hours ago because she had work and these guys have been fighting ever since! I honestly don't know how they got through school, they are so immature-

"Luna! Lunaaaa, LUNA!" I Jump at the sound of Cory's voice.

"Huh?" I look at the two idiots sitting in front of me, "What?" they look at me with serious faces, a couple of seconds of staring at my confused face they burst out laughing. I just roll my eyes and start packing up our mess.

"Hey, Whatcha doing?" I look at them with my eyebrow raised.

"Aren't we going out for a break?" they look at me with wide eyes and realize I'm serious. They stand up right away and rush around, cleaning up the entire surface of our workspace. By the time I had packed up my stuff they were grabbing their jackets and standing at the front door waiting for me.

"Whoa, whoa wait up. We have to figure out where we're going first." I look at both boys expressions. Blank. Sighing I head upstairs.

"Princess? Where are you going?"

"Hold on!" I go through my wardrobe and get changed into a pair of black ripped jeans, a grey singlet and a black leather jacket with a grey hood. Grabbing my phone, wallet and my secret stash of money I run down the stairs and go to my garage. Once I manage to open the garage door I slip on my ripped high tops and back out of the garage on my Harley.

The boys must've heard the garage open and the motor run because before I could even think about detaching myself from my Harley they were already outside gawking at my bike.

"Hurry up! Unless you wanna go back and do more of our project?" They shake their heads and run over to their vehicles. "Follow me!" and with that, I was off.

"Wow really?" He nods his head, for the past half an hour we've been sitting in Sal and Mookie's (pizza and ice-creamery) getting to know each other, though when I say 'Getting to know each other' I really just mean listening to Cody talk about his life. Cody is killing me with all his talking, five minutes ago stitch walked out to take a phone call and Cody has-once again- tried to apologize to me more than once. Its gotten so bad that I have tried to start asking him questions so that he would shut up, not that it worked of course.

"Look, Luna please can you just listen. I'm sor-" Thankfully Nathaniel cut him off before I strangled him.

"Hey guys, sorry but I've got to go. The RSPCA just called and said that they need me to come in tonight because they're staff is very limited this month"

"RSPCA? You work there?" I ask.

"No, I volunteer"

"Can I come and help?" I plead with my eyes, He just looks at me with a smirk.

"Sure, follow me." before Cory could even utter a syllable we had grabbed our shakes and left.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

I'm not gonna lie, stitch and the RSPCA, that was a huge surprise. I mean don't get me wrong, Nathaniel is a really nice guy. He isn't like any other guy that I've met- Well except for 'Him'-.He doesn't care about popularity, in fact when the 'Popular girl' group walks down the halls of school he doesn't even give them a glance let alone a wink. So I suppose when we got to the RSPCA I didn't really know what to expect. I sure didn't expect him to run to the animals and give them cuddles, kisses and affection, but I didn't expect him to help me off the bike either.

As soon as he had finished playing with them he had invited me inside and into the staff locker room. The staff locker room wasn't too big, it was about as big as an ordinary walk-in closet so we both fit in there closely but comfortably.

"Here give me your jacket princess, wouldn't want it to get ruined would we?" he asks winking at me. I instantly feel heat singe my cheeks and handover my jacket mumbling a "Here you go"

He hangs my jacket up in which I assume is his locker (seeing that he hangs it up right next to his) and locks it. He grips my small hand in his large one and leads me out of the locker room and over to what I assume is the food station.

Once the food trolley is stocked up with dog and cat food he once again slips his hand in mine and entwines our fingers together. I simply look up at him and give him a soft smile.

The first door we come through is an office. He must've seen my confused expression because all he does is chuckle and pick up a set of keys from his desk, putting them in my otherwise unoccupied hand.

///////////Feeding hour ends////////////

Nathaniel takes a deep breath and sighs in defeat. "The council only bought him in last week. He was in a bag on the side of the road, dying. He still hasn't fully recovered and... The head of RSPCA wants me to put him down..."

"When?" Tears are flooding my eyes, begging to be let out as I hold the precious little pup that no body wanted.

"Tonight..." My eyes widen and I jump up stepping away from him while holding the little creature close to my chest.

"No.. No! I wont allow it! You cant go killing every animal that no one wants!" Tears are now flowing down my face like water falls, the pup whimpers and I immediately look down to see what's wrong.

"I.. I have no choice Luna. No one wants a broken toy, what makes you think they'll want a sick puppy? And we can't keep him here, he needs medicine, medicine costs money and we don't have much of that either."I look up into his eyes and see the deep remorse in them that seems to be hidden by determination and confidence.

I look down at the puppy in my arms. That poor innocent puppy that hasn't lived long enough to see how wrong the world really is. I could take this all away from him. I could put him out of his misery, give him a better future.

I look back up to Nathaniel. My face laced with determination, my mind is made up. No one is going to change my decision, not even me.

Ever since the accident I've been trying to be this other person. Trying to adapt to this other character, making it easier for me to live. Ever since the accident I haven't been close to anyone, ever since I left 'Him'. Yeah, I've met Stitch and Cory and Harpers little sister but, I haven't been close to them. I need this pup just as much as he needs me.

"Where are the adoption papers?" He looks at me with wide eyes and runs over to the receptionist's desk going through paper after paper until he finds the one he's looking for.

Pretty boring chapter, I know but this chapter was essential. Can you guess the breed and colour?
