Tooth
Austin kept on looking at the door,like he needed to go out. Peter and Petra were paying attention to the meeting while Augustus looked to be very agitated by Mitt,Ender's little brother. Duncan said," Is there somewhere that is more important than this; that you need to go, Austin?" Austin said,as he got up," Yes..there is." Then he walked out. We had to search the witch's house and now we are watching the tapes we found. Of course,the meeting was finished when we did. On the screen looked like a sewer system area and a eight-year old boy with a load of other children. He said," Augustus...The mean lady is back! " A voice said," What does she want?" The boy said,with horror in his voice and a slight shiver,"She want...to...train us,like-like a d-dog!" The voice,or Augustus as a kid said," Don't worry about it,Austin! she's my mom!" Austin, as a kid; said," I-I want to go back home..." The voice said," Didn't your mom and dad die? That's why your here!" Austin said," No one deserves to be kidnapped! I'm suppose to be with my brothers! I've left them! " A women appeared and slapped Austin; as she said," Your here now and no one is going to save you! Your going to be a good boy and OBEY me!" Austin whimpered and then cried," Your a mean lady! I don't obey evil!" He was then beaten for a couple of hours and made Augustus watch it. She said," That will teach you to not listen to me!" Augustus dropped the camera and went over to Austin,he said," Austin! Are you ok?" Austin said," I-I want to go h-home!" Augustus said; as he hugged him,"I know...I know! You just got to act like a strong man!" Someone came into the door and said," He ok?" Another person said," We can't be in here,Petra!" Then the tape stopped. We put another in.
Austin looked about 10-12. Austin was on the ground with wings on his back. The voice said; he discarded the camera on the table," My mother did this to you?! No! Austin! Austin! Don't go into the light! Someone get me the doctors!" It turned off for a couple of minutes. Now they were in a makeshift hospital looking room. Austin whispered, losing that glint in his eye," H-hay g-guys..." There were two boys and a girl beside his bed. The girl said," Your not a human anymore...Guess we can't tease you about being a weakling hu?" Austin smiled and said," I thought I'd be more excited when you would say that, Petra. " They laughed,but they stopped when the door opened and the lady walked into the room. The lady said," All of you out! Stand still,Austin! You sneak out of my lad and destroy all my notes? I should kill that genetic son of yours! But I need him alive for when he gets out of the egg forming process...So your lucky today,pet! But to make sure you don't fly off.." She put a bracelet on him. He hissed as he fell back to unconsciousness. The tape stopped,put another one in. The were labeled 'Kids Past.'
But It mostly seemed to be about Austin in these tapes. Austin looked around 13-15, he said," Come on guys! Cheer up!" A couple of kids,7-10 said," How can you be so cheerful,Grim? We're here!" He said," It's not much but if you look at the positive and hold to hope, you'll make it! " One kid said," We live in the middle of nowhere!" Austin looked around at all the trees and said," Yes! But it's peaceful, once you know the basics of hunting and gathering fruit! It's pretty comfortable to be in the company of the trees... Don't you think?" Some of the kids said," Yeah,"or "I guess?" Austin said," Now help me set up the area; like Peter and Petra were taught!" The kids said," Yeah!" Tooth said," I feel like we're delving into something we shouldn't mess with..." Duncan said," But we can learn them more quickly this way!" Tooth said," We should earn their trust so that they TELL us their stories! RIGHT,EVERYONE?" A chorus's of,'Right's were heard. Tooth and Duncan still watched a couple of them that delved into Peter,and Petra's stories. They didn't get many on Augustus's.
Austin
Austin was with Soaron,it's about winter time again,meaning it's been a whole year since Tooth and Austin have met. Duncan decided to let them go back,but first he was going to have a ceremony of who got to be Tooth's mate. Austin didn't like the thought of Tooth being with someone. It just didn't sit well with him. He had no idea why. Con said," Only people with no mates join the 'dominate' or 'submissive' area. " Austin,Peter and Augustus had to watch as their friend,Petra got dragged to the 'submissive' area. Though Tooth and Duncan were arguing about something,even being in another room you could here a bit of their conversation from them yelling. "You did this ceremony behind my back and expect me to actually go along with it! I have a mate already! " "You've been saying that for a whole year almost, but you're always with that...that witch server!" "How can you be so hateful when you know a little about his past?!" I wonder who their talking about.. Austin was cut off from his thoughts as screaming was heard and a wolf with a knife at Austin's throat and Con's. He said," My name's Scar! Where is Tooth and Duncan?"
