Eventually the guardians stopped coming to wake up the orphans every morning. That was around the time that people from the nearby towns stopped coming to adopt anyone- which was around the time they all realized what a hellhole the orphanage was.
All of those happened within a few days. Coincidence? Nah.
Teresa levered herself into a somewhat upright position, her bedsheets askew at the end of the bed. She glanced out the window. It was still darkish outside, with frost caking the better part of the ground. A second later she shivered with cold. The orphanage only had air conditioning, and barely any real insulation. Teresa slipped out of bed, the cold concrete floor only sending a shiver up her spine once more. She didn't bother taking her sheets with her- it was too much trouble to carry them around and try to keep warm. She would just have to adjust.
Still garbed in her pajamas she stepped in to the hallway and glanced at the clock. It was six in the morning. She slapped both cheeks at the same time to wake herself up, then quietly slipped outside on to the fresh, frost-rimmed gra.ss.

Kyin shook with the breeze coming from the air conditioning. Since the orphanage was just a hellhole that people from the outside rarely came in, they really never bothered to keep up with air conditioning and heating. Nobody really care, except the orphans. Kyin opened his eyes and shivered. He looked out the cracked window in their room, saw someone walking out onto the gras.s , and rubbed his eyes. Was that girl really outside in at least 10 degree weather. No, maybe it was only 10 degrees in the stone orphanage. Maybe. He shook his head and looked out the window again. She was there. He stood up, careful not to wake his brother. He opened the door quietly and walked out. Garbed in his pajamas, he slipped out into the darkened day. He looked at the girl. "What the hell are you doing outside? Do you realize we can get in trouble or ffreeze to death?" He said in a gruff voice. He cleared his throat. "You.. Come on!" He said in a half-whisper. Riku heard his brother but refused to open his eyes to get up. He was finally warm and he didn't want to ruin his warmth. However, when he heard the door open, he sat up. "Kyin." He said even though the door was already shut. "THat boy is goign to be the end of me.." He lay back down and closed his eyes. "Stupid boy.." He fell back asleep. (Rukiea comes in when morning really comes..)

Once she was outside, Teresa closed her eyes and let a shiver run up her spine as a soft but chill wind teased her hair. It was... refreshing, standing in an oasis of cold. However, her pleasure only lasted a moment. Soon she was awake and alert, and her skin was starting to go numb. She opened her eyes, letting the barely visible sun catch in their strange hazel colour.
"What the hell are you doing outside? Do you realize we can get in trouble or freeze to death? You... Come on!"
Teresa flinched slightly when the voice interrupted the crisp, empty silence. She hadn't even heard the boy approach. She turned around so she could see him. The first thing she noticed was that he was decidedly taller than her. Maybe by about a foot. He had ebony hair and piercing black eyes- not dark brown like you saw on some people. They were actually black.
She stayed silent for a moment, then nodded. "I don't know about breaking the rules, but freezing to death doesn't sound like fun." She said quietly.

Dakota slowly opened his large navy blue eyes, dim grey light poured into the plan large room the housed all the orphans He sucked in brisk air making his lungs hurt deep inside as his chest filled then exhaled a white puff of steam rolled off his mouth as his warm breath hit the air. The thick smell of mildew filled his small cute nose making him wince. Slowly sitting up the cot creaked and moaned under his weight even though Dakota was a particularly lanky wiry boy. He walked across the ice cold smooth concrete floor as his large bare feet smacked against the ground he shivered as the stale icy air hit him his eyes wondered To his clothes that were neatly folded over the hot furnace to keep them warm which surprisingly was the only put up there considering it was only deathly cold out side.Dakota looked around to all the cots lined up to make sure that no one was gonna watch him change not seeing any sign of life, He sighed and quickly put his clothes on looking around and finding a couple missing people out of the cots. Dakota silently walked out the door into the large main hallway to see if anyone was there.

Kyin looked at her. "Of course not.. Why would anybody like to freeze to death... Especially when you will die alone with no family left behind.." He looked down at her and decided she was about a foot shorter than he was. He gave a slight chuckle then a small smile. "My my... How old are you?" He picked her up onto his back and walked in He noticed her feet were already turning blue with the cold and her body temperature was way below his. Although, he knew he could retain his body heat more than many people. He looked over his shoulder at her and whispered, "Why are you up at this hour anyways? I can't always pick up orphans who walk out into the cold. Then again, I always feel obligated to help other orphans since what we went through.. Anyways, what's your room number.. I'll take you there.." The bullet around his neck fell to the floor. His chian had snapped. "Awww... This stupid thing.. This is the third time it broke.." He got down and picked it up. He shoved it into his pocket. Riku opened his eyes when he heard bare feet slapping the cold floor. "Ugh..." He sat up and the cot made a loud creak. He stood up and slipped on his shirt. He walked out and quietly stepped out into the main hallway. "This place is just begging to be the next graveyard.." He walked down the hall and ended up bumping into another boy. "Oops I'm sorry." He looked at the boy and noticed how cute he was instantly. He sighed. "What are you doing up at this time? You can wake everyone.." He yawned and popped his back. "Well?"

Teresa pouted slightly as he chuckled. "I'm fourteen, and--" Before she could go on she felt her feet swept from under her. She stifled a yelp of surprise as Kyin hauled her on to his back. Surprisingly, she didn't fall right away. She didn't even need a moment to get over her surprise. "Let me down!" She hissed, her shock translating into anger. As everything usually did.
Then he started walking. Unconsciously her grip on his shoulders tightened in her attempt to not fall off. She remained stubbornly silent throughout all of his talking, but when he bent down to pick up the bullet necklace, she took the opportunity to detatch herself from his back and land lightly on the floor. She was frowning slightly as she looked him in the eye, her hair tousled. "I'm in room eleven." She said, ignoring his other questions and remarks.
"And don't pick me up like that." She continued, a bit of an indignant huff in her voice. "I don't even know you." Who was this guy, to just pick up a girl he didn't know whenever he felt like it?
She thought she recognized him, though that was only because he lived in the same orphanage as her. She had never talked to him though.

Dakota briskly turned to him his eyes sharp and strong like venom and his face unmoving “I don’t care” his voice deep and smooth as silk as it echoed through the orphanage. “and quick frankly why should you?” He shook his hair out as it fell perfectly into place.”and is it really your business”He didn’t seem to be so mean about it but the pain of his family still held a wieght on his shoulders..his family.Dakota swallowed pain sliding down his through and his chest felt like it had been hit with a baseball bat.”im sorry”he whispered looking away as he tried to roll back tears.

Kyin looked at her. "I'm the oldest orphan here.. Okay.. I've been here since I was at least four. So you better not be telling me what I can and can't do." He grabbed her by the back of her shirt. "Listen, go to your room and go to sleep. You can get in deep trouble. Do you wana scrub the floors til they shine?" He held the bullet in his hand and placed her on the floor. "Nevermind do whatever you want You'll be here all your life anyways." He turned on his heel and began to walked down the hallways. "Kyin's the name. Don't you forget it." He walked down the hallways until he came to his room. He opened the door and noticed Riku was gone. "Aww no way..." He walked back down the hall. "When you got up, did you see another person walkign around? He looks just like me." Riku looked at Dakota and winced at every rude comment he made. "Tch.. You ignorant little br-" He noticed Dakota was about to cry. "H-Hey... Um.. Kid. Sorry, i don't know your name, but why are you guna cry. You should be crying, but don't.. Come on.. You'll make me feel bad.." He looked into Dakota's nay eyes with is silver ones. "Come on... Please.." He put his hand on Dakota's head.

Teresa raised her hand to slap his away, but he let go of her shirt before she could. She blinked and straightened up. "I'm Teresa." She said grudgingly, not really caring if he heard or not. She turned and started making her way back to her room, which was only a few doors down. She had barely taken a few steps before she heard Kyin's voice again.
"Aww no way..." She glanced behind her, only to see that he was already behind her. A curious frown pulled at the corners of her lips. "When you got up, did you see another person walking around? He looks just like me." She shook her head. "Nope. I thought I was the only one awake until you came outside." She tilted her head slightly. "Is he your brother or something? I could help you look for him." She twined her fingers together casually behind her back and waited for his response, her eyes alight with energy as she looked up at him. She was just starting to feel fidgety, with nothing to do.
