Chasing Trouble

I walk down the stairs and into the music shop.We lived right above the family buisness.We, being my "dad", and I.Everyone in town thought I was Charlie's daughter, and we weren't going to tell them differently, because if the coorps.Came to this town they could easily connect the dots.

The truth is he was close to my dad and helped him storm into the lab. Charlie's wife and child were not found. He promised my dad he'd protect me like his own. I moved with him to the small town of Santa Clara at the age of eight after my parents died.We've moved all over the world since then, but somehow they are always close behind us.

We've lived here for almost a year, which is the longest we've stayed anywhere. I've been homeschooled since the age of 8 since Charlie said an education is important. So it's safe to say I'm socially awkward.

The most interaction I've had with strangers is when they come into the store. I find people interesting, to say the least.I look like any other human, but I'm nothing like one. My "powers" as Charlie calls them, have grown and intensified as I have.I've also gained some as I grew.I found it cool, but terrifying at same time.

Once I'm in the shop I flip the sign to open.Its early in the morning so I don't expect anyone to come in.I grab one of the acoustic guitars that were hanging on the wall and just begin playing. After about a half our of messing around on the guitar, I heard the bell that signifyed someone had entered the store.

Notes
