Character Info
Casey - A girl who has trained herself in order to protect Kylee.
Trevor - A boy who ended up taking care of Kylee by accident.
Kylee - A baby with the power to grant someone eternal life.

Woman: Thank you both for taking care of Kylee!
Casey: You're welcome; bye! Leaves with Trevor.
Trevor: You going to be okay walking home by yourself this late at night?
Casey: Heads back to the house.
Trevor: Where are you going?
Casey: I-I, uh... forgot something!
Trevor: Fine, see ya then. Walks home.
Casey: Good, he's gone... Looks through an open window.
Woman: Holding Kylee. Now then, how do I work this thing?
Casey: (What is she doing?!?)
Kylee: Goo...
Woman: C'mon, give me eternal life already!
Kylee: Starts crying. Waaah!
Woman: Stop crying, brat!
Kylee (crying): Waaah! Mommy!
Casey: Comes in through the window. Stop! What are you doing to her?!?
Woman: Puts Kylee down. So, you want the Eternal Child too...
Casey: ...
Woman: I'm sorry, but I can't let you steal this baby from me; it's mine! Takes out a gun. You know too much! Die!
Casey: Hides behind a dresser.
Woman: Yeah, hide you coward!
Casey: Takes out a yo-yo and takes her gun.
Woman: W-what?!?
Casey: Points the gun at her. You were saying?
Woman: U-um... P-please don't kill me...
Casey: Hmph, who's the coward now...? Calls the police. The police come and take the woman away.
Kylee: G-goo...
Casey: Picks up Kylee. There, there... Everything's okay now...
Kylee: Mommy... Hugs Casey.
Casey: M-mommy? (She must think I'm my sister...)
Trevor: Comes rushing in. W-what the heck is going on here?!? Why were there police outside?
Casey: I'm sorry, but you just lost your job. I'm going now. Walks out of the house with Kylee.
Trevor: Wait, where are you going with the baby?
Casey: Somewhere where the hunters won't find us. Runs away.
Trevor: Hunters? What're you talking about? Wait, Casey!
Casey (tired): Stops for a rest. *huff* I'm too tired to run anymore... *huff* And I don't where to go either... I'm too young to drive...
Kylee: Da...
Casey: What is it, Kylee?

The clouds start to thunder.

Kylee: Starts crying. Waaah!
Casey: O-oh no! I have to find shelter before it rains! Runs and sees a shed near someone's house. *huff* I'm still too tired... That'll have to do for now... Hides in the shed right before it rains.
Kylee: Waaah!
Casey: C-calm down, Kylee... (What am I supposed to do now? I found a shelter from the rain, but... Where am I going to stay from now on?)
Kylee: Waaah!
Casey: (I can't even get Kylee to calm down...) I'm sorry, Kylee... S-sorry sis... Starts crying.
?1: Casey... I-it's me, Susan...
Casey: (crying): S-sis...?
Susan: Sing the song... Sing the song to Kylee...
Casey: The song? Oh, that song! (Thanks, sis...) Sings a lullaby to Kylee.
Kylee: M-mommy... Falls asleep.
Casey: I've managed to get Kylee to fall asleep. *yawn* Maybe I should get some rest, too...
?2: Why's the shed light on? Don't tell me Helix left it on again...
Casey: O-oh no, someone's coming!
?2: Is someone there? Opens the shed door.
Casey: T-Trevor!
Trevor: Casey?!? What're doing in my shed?
Casey: It started raining, so I needed to find shelter fast... Speaking of which, you're soaked! Were you taking a jog or something?
Trevor: I was looking for you, you idiot!
Casey (blushing): Y-you were looking for me? (He's a nicer guy than I thought...)
Trevor: I was worried about Kylee.
Casey: *sweatdrop* (Oh, so that was the reason...)
?3: Walks up to them holding an umbrella. Hey, what're you doing out here in the rain, bud?
Casey: Who's that?
Trevor: Helix...
Helix (surprised): Hey, whoa! You had a lover and even a baby and you never told me! Worst of all, you hide her in the shed! Shame on you, bud...
Trevor: W-what are you talking about?!? She's not my lover!
Helix: Whatever, let's talk about it inside. This place isn't a good place for a lady and an infant to rest.
Trevor: ... Goes inside with the others.
Helix: So anyway, I'm Helix. I'm Trevor's pal. Nice to meet you, um...
Casey: Casey. And this baby's name is Kylee.
Kylee (asleep): Zzz...
Helix: Casey, huh? That's a cute name for a lover, Trevor!
Trevor: I already told you, she's not my lover!
Helix: You sure? The baby resembles both of you...
Trevor: What are you talking about?
Casey: Come to think of it, she kinda does look like you and I...
Trevor: *sweatdrop* You're not helping, Casey...
Casey: By the way, why is Helix here so late at night? Isn't this your house?
Trevor: Helix and I share the same house. It's easier to pay for stuff since it's only us two here.
Casey: Oh...
Helix: But from now on, it'll be 4 people living here!
Casey: W-we can stay? Really?
Trevor: W-what? Who ever said she could stay here?!?
Helix: I'll go get the extra bed into your room!
Trevor: Listen to me, you idiot!
Helix: Hey, we can't leave her in the shed, can we? And we've got no extra rooms, so...
Trevor: *sigh* I'll sleep on the couch...
Casey: (I actually found a place to stay, sis... But not in the way I was expecting...)

Casey finds a place to stay - in Trevor's house! How will their days go from here on?
