Dying isn't scheduled today, Ashur grimly thought. "Keep close to the trees " He warned Raeven as another bolt scorched past, barely missing him. "Zigzag Make their shots as difficult as possible " He and Raeven dodged in and out of the trees as energy bolts whizzed around them. Ashur and Raeven are eleven years old. Growing up on Lalor isn't easy. Staring down death seems easier than facing everyday life. They are loners, bullied and taunted by other kids. Earning their parents' approval takes courage.
