Christine charged down the street. She was so angry with the Peacekeepers, so angry. She needed to get to her special spot. As she ran, a little girl stepped into Christine's path. Christine crashed into her, sending them both sprawling. "Watch where you walk, kid," she snarled.

Emera
I was walking down the street and when the person hit me I automatically fixed it so that I landed with out hurting myself and so I would be able to get up faster then the other person.
When we hit the ground I immediately jumped back up as the person lay sprawled on the ground. I glared at them furiously.
"Maybe I wouldn't have to look where I'm going if people learned to shut up and mind their own business. Or I wouldn't have to watch where I was going if people grew some common sense and didn't run into people in the first place."
I completely ignored the girl and looked the bag that I had dropped when the girl hit me.
It contained food that I was going to eat at the orphanage.
When I couldn't find it I whispered, "Oh shit."
I glared at the girl again and said, "This is all your fault I bought that food and now I can't find it. I worked hard for that money." I left out the fact that 'working hard' for it meant I stole it. Just because I lived at an orphanage now didn't mean I had to give up my old way of life.
I muttered under my breath, "Stupid idiots."

She stood up, on the verge of tears. "Look, I'm sorry."

Emera
I sighed and felt a feeling inside.
Somehow it had escaped my unsympathetic heart.
It was pity.
Knowing I would have kicked the tar out of the peacekeepers I looked her up ad down. Doesn't look like the defensive type.
"Well then, I know some place that will cheer you up." It was the only place I could think of. Then I remembered something and said offhandedly. "As long as their not too mad at me."
I grabbed my coat that I had dropped and then walked down along the street. After a few steps I turned around to see the girl still sitting there.
"Well, come'on."

I follow the girl, no idea where she's taking me. I spot the bag the girl was carrying when I crashed into her and grab it, then run to catch up. When I took a quick peek inside the bag, I saw a bunch of food. Good food, not the usual slop you get at an orphanage. "Where'd she get it?" I wonder.

Emera
She catches up to me and when I see she has the bag I snatch it out of her hands. “Thank you oh so very much but this is mine.” I quickly switch the bag to the hand that is farthest away from the girl. We continue walking and taking quite a few twists and turns.
When we finally reach the gates of the orphanage I slowly opened them trying not to make them squeak. As I walk to the front door followed by the girl the kid’s crowd around me asking who I’ve brought here. I give them short explanations and finally say, “I’ll tell you all tonight at the meet.”
Tonight was the meet of the houses and as Queen of the orphanage I had to make sure nothing went wrong.
The kids backed up and when we made it to the door I walked quickly inside.
“Mother Jessy!!!” I called loudly. The women who owned the orphanage said we should call them our ‘Moms’ but there were so many we had to add their first name to the end so they would know which one we were calling
I heard shouting and then a middle-aged woman with long black hair appeared out of a side door.
“Emera what have you done now?” she asked in a strict voice. It sounded like she was playing now. She noticed the girl behind me and said, “Did Emera torment you to? Then she noticed the girl looked on the verge of tears and quickly strided over to her. She pulled a tissue from some magical place and quickly handed it to the girl.
“Emera go tell Darnie that we need some food.”
I rolled my eyes and went to the kitchen. Mother Darnie had already started making food. “Oh, off with you Emera. I’ll bring the food to the main room hen its ready. I laughed and stole a pie while her back was turned then headed for the main room. It was furnished shabbily but it held warm memories for me. This had been the first home I could remember.
I saw Mother Jessy and the girl at one of the tables. Mother Jessy looked up at me and laughed when she saw the pie. “At least come share it with us. I walked over at flopped onto a chair slouching as Mother Jessy gave a piece of the pie to the girl.
“Now that we have food,” Mother Jessy looked pointedly at me. It was the ‘I-know-you-stole-it’ look, “What happened?”

Emera
I sighed.
Mother Jessy gave me a look that I knew meant she wanted to talk to me later about where I had gotten the food from. I looked away and smiled. Mother Jessy was to much like a kid to let anything pass by her. I looked back at the girl and asked, "What happened before that. You mentioned something about Peacekeepers but I forgot exactly what you said."
Truth was I hadn't forgotten I was just trying to get the topic away from the food that I had...... acquired through less than ordinary means.

"I was taking some eggs to the market when a bunch of Peacekeepers came by and broke half of them," I said. "They took them out of the basket and threw them at me. It happens a lot." I turn to the girl. "When we came in, I heard a couple of kids refer to you as 'The Queen.' What's that all about?"

Emera
I smiled proudly. "I'm Queen of the Kids." I explained, "I beat the previous ruler and so I rule over the Houses." Her confused look made me go on. "In each of the tree's outside is a tree house. These are our 'Houses.' When a kid first comes here they pick a House. This House is then in charge of the kid, to protect them, make sure they know how it works here and train them. There are wars among certain Houses and it's my job to make sure they don't go to far."
I took another bite of pie.
"I don't have a House. I rule the Court. My advisor's and the best of the best warriors serve me. It's my job to keep the peace and all of the Houses have to pay tribute to me at the end of the week. They give me their..." I paused and looked at Mother Jessy. She was smiling at me and since she already knew what I was going to say I continued, "They give me part of what they've stolen from the kitchen this week. I've been Queen for five months now and I'm doing a very good job. No one dares to challenge me because they know I lived on the street for five years."
I thought about something then smiled wickedly, "Do you know the names of any of the Peacekeepers who mugged you?"
I already had a plan set up for an attack on a Peacekeeper, might as well put it to use.

I saw her nod. Bruce was the most vicious peacekeeper. "What happen in the wars, and how did you beat the previous ruler? What happened to them?'

Emera
I nod at the mention of Bruce. I have scars from when he found me stealing. This was perfect revenge material. After she asked her question I replied, "Wars usually consist of throwing mud pies at each other or other pranks. They aren't suppose to seriously injure each other. That's one of my jobs. They often take it to far. I'm in charge of punishment." I frown because something like that had happened recently and I had to take care of that tonight at the Meet.
"As to the previous ruler I had to challenge him and then we competed in three tests. It's best two out of three but I won all three. So he was sent back to his previous house." I smirked at the memory of Dander's stricken face when I had beat him.
"I'm a better Ruler anyway so it doesn't really matter."

I laughed and smiled at her. "I can talk it over tonight. You might be able to we'll have to consult the Rule bearer though and Druid will have to find his copy of the book." I thought about it for a minute thinking about how Druid had been acting.

I tried to recall as many rules as I could and then said, "There are no rules I can think of that ban it but you would have to pick a House to fight for and that 'ill cause opposition from the other House waring with them. I'm sure I can pass it through though."

"Really, the orphanage is much more.... Organized then I thought. You have a leader and houses and rules and everything..." My voice trails off. "What are the houses called? And when's the next war?"
