It was about a month ago.

The day started out the same as any until I wanted to eat. I decide no one was watching the fruit stand so I went to get an apple. But I was wrong someone was watching it was a big person with a gun. He was so big and strong. But he was followed by two other people neither one was as tall or as frightening as him.

The best plan was my hit and run technique. For that one I would distract all of them with my little tale and then make them get me some food.

“Hey kid watch were your going!” I turned around and the big man was talking to another little girl about my height and age with blonde hair too.

“Don’t got none either.”

“Someone can live on the streets there whole life and not know all the ins and outs.”

“Little Reynolds. You are going to pay for what your father couldn’t.”

“That girl stomped on my foot!” Jayne yelled as both girls disappeared into the ally.

“Jayne cool off. They were just hungry and strongly intimidated by how tall you are.”

“Zoe how do you know they ain’t just pickin’ on me.”

“Jayne you’re six foot something I don’t think they would have wanted to pick on you.” Mal laughed.

“Mal why are we on Ezra, last time we landed on this piece of crap rock you and Wash got the go se kicked right out’ a ya.”

“Cause Badger said that a little girl was here
