Chapter 1
Dephon wove
his way through the crowded streets, his fear propelling him forward. Out of
place in this new time, Dephon wasn’t sure of much, but he was sure of one thing:he was
being followed.
In the
sewers of Trepton, the first thing you learned was how to tell when you weren't
alone. There were no second chances in Trepton, but at least there, he knew who his enemies were. Here he
had no idea. And that was much worst. He stopped and hid behind a building at the
corner of Kezar Drive, peering cautiously down the street in the hopes of
catching his stalker unaware. The streets were brimming with so many people
that he couldn’t see anything. Or rather he saw too much. A dark-haired man to
the left of him looked suspicious, and a masculine-looking woman was staring at
him a little too intently for comfort.
Was she evil, or was she just staring because Dephon just looked crazy, peeking
at people around the side of buildings?
Dephon
tried to clear his head, but everyone
was starting to look suspicious. He could have sworn that he saw the girl in
the flowery white and pink dress with long, swinging black hair three streets
ago. And there was a man in a blue suit pushing
a stroller who looked familiar, too. Dephon wasn’t sure who was following him,
but he was smart enough to never doubt his instincts.
