Nine men watched as the gray house across the street was remolded and made bigger as if to fit a large family into the house. The house had stood empty for a while and people had thought it would never be sold - it would most likely be torn down. The house was no longer the ugly gray it had been but was repainted in a lovely shade of white and red, no longer stood the house that was used by an older couple that had died and left their house and precious memories to their only son that decided he didn’t want it and sold it. The house was now made of bricks and it looked very lovely, but the nine men wondered who bought the house and why could they remodel the house so quickly it would take years to remodel a house and not merely a few months.

The nine men wondered if the new family was eager to move in or if they rushed the house because they had no where else to go to. They probably had a large family since they had made a two story house much larger.

This nine men that was watching the house across the street is named Dakota Lee, Nathan Griffin, Lucian Taylor, Gabriel Coleman, North Taylor, Silas Korba, Victor Morgan, Sean Green and lastly Owen Blackbourne.

This nine men were a family, a team for the Academy - all of them had their own reasons for being there and banding together because The Academy had rescued most of them from bad situations where it was life threatening or just on the way to it.

Dakota Lee lived in the house, the other eight men were standing in, more specific the other eight men were standing in his room above the Garage. He didn’t live alone in the large house, he lived with his younger sister Jessica Lee and his single mother Erica Lee. Dakota preferred to be called Kota. When Kota got nervous or worried he had a tick, he would count under his breath.

Next was Nathan Griffin, he loved sports and martial arts, preferred scary movies and loved zombie movies. He currently lived alone a few house down the street on the opposite of Kota’s house, his father was in the Air Force and liked a little bit too much to lose himself in a bottle of Alcohol. Everyone called him Nate and liked to joke that he should have been called Nat.

Next was Lucian Taylor, he was a bit dreamy and so he would many times lose himself in his fantasies, he loved sweets and like to play pranks on them all but most of all on North - his brother. He lived with his half brother North Taylor and his uncle that owned a dinner where most of them worked part time. He liked to shorten his name to Luke.

Gabriel Coleman was a special case on his own, he had some problems with himself and the way others viewed him, he lived with his stepmother Pam in a trailer park, where she mostly brought her conquests home and they would beat Gabriel. He loved fashion and art, he dressed all of his team and even chose the most fitting clothes for them all and styled their hair. Gabriel wasn’t just straight he was Bi and most thought he was just Gay because he was interested in Fashion. He liked when his family called him Gabe and he was also the youngest in the group and cursed worse than a sailor.

Next to Gabe stood North Taylor, he liked to wear all black and had a Go;den hoop in his ear, he was the broody type and mostly spoke to Silas in Greek. He was a health nut and hated Luke's pranks and sweet diet. He had a Jeep that was his but he let the others drive it if they needed it. North had a motorcycle as well and he loved working on vehicles and bikes of all kinds.

Next to North sat a Giant teen, this was Silas Korba, he was from Greece and had come over the sees with his family to be with North. He loved with his brother Theo and his father in a flat. The flat was located in Sergeant Jasper near another family the Toma Team. His family owned a Plumbing company and his father liked for Silas  to work there.

The next teen was in front of a laptop and his name was Victor Morgan, he was a famous Piano player and was known as a prodigy from a young age. He was also a genius with any technology. He had no siblings and lived with his mother and father, but they pressured him to go do concerts and things even if he didn’t want to. He was rich and liked to pay for his friends purchases and he didn’t like to take no for an answer.

Sean Green, lived alone mostly in a flat but liked to stay with Mr Blackbourne when he wasn’t on shift at the hospital, as young as Sean was he was a brilliant doctor, he worked with Erica Lee and Dr Robertson. He had a mother and father but they lived in their own country, all nine of them would visit them or buy them tickets to come visit them here.

Lastly was Mr Blackbourne, he wore suits - he always looked perfect and  didn’t even have a hair out of place.  He owned a big mansion - he hoped that all the boys would move into when their eighteen. He loved dabbling in the stock markets and have a lovely rose garden in memory of his late mother.

It was not under good circumstances that this nine became a family, but this family was what they needed to thrive and learn to live again.

Mr Blackbourne focused back on Mr Morgan  when the young Genius went slacked jaw and looked like he didn’t believe what he read and seen on the  screen - if you looked you could see the surprise on is face.

That look got all eight of  his brothers attention and they quickly focused on him.
‘’ Mr Morgan, what is the matter?’’ He asked the teen softly.

‘’ Mr Blackbourne, the Toma team bought that house across the street from Kota’s !!’’ Victor told his brother and leader in a shaky voice, almost a whisper.

The others looked at Victor now understanding why he was so shocked, they were close to the other team and they had not let them know that they were moving or that they were buying the house across from Kota’s.

Some them let out curses and was very surprised when they didn’t get scolded by Mr Blackbourne.

Owen Blackbourne couldn’t scold them because he was frozen where he stood in shock. That was definitely not the answer he was wanting to hear.

I am sorry that It  had taken me so long to update but it has been a rough few months. As you know I am a babysitter and looking after a two year old toddler, I left my boyfriend on our 3 months anniversary, because he insulted my father and said that i wasn’t trustworthy. Then I am studying and that is also a lot of work.I just found out that two of my sisters boys, both have the Corona virus. Like I promised, I posted the vampire book but I am not happy with that book.
