Sarra looked at jak, studying her. The different eyes. The long brown body. The scar on her back. The sharp jaw. Not quite like anything Sarra has ever seen. Or really, nothing that had ever walked in these parts. They couldn't walk anywhere together without getting attention. All of a sudden, all eyes followed anywhere she went. I like the attention, if I do say so. All of a sudden, her parents were in a frenzy about this new person in her life. Her mother wanted to help, whatever that meant. Her father wanted nothing to do with Jak, practically running whenever she came around. And once Jak was gone, the fighting could begin. The fighting, always in the house. Never in front of others. Sarra would yell at them, tell them how intolerant they were being. She liked her new friends, no matter how different they might look. Sarra was tired of being ignored, of trying to put on jewelry until the other girls paid attention. Now, she had something they could never attain, better than any purse or gem.

It wasn't easy. Her new friends are... Different. She tried to assert her opinion, much to their chagrin. She was just trying to help. Luckily Jak was always their to comfort her, but peri had no time for her. Peri was always with that stag anyway. Jak reassured her that her opinion did, in fact, matter. And Sarra loved jaks long arms wrapped around her, warming her as her tears dried.

She shuddered at the thought of being around peri. His flauncing, and sweet blue lochs. She knew that Jak and him had had issues. Maybe this was her chance to wedge herself in between. She was sure Jak felt lonely traveling with a couple. And she was sure Jak was starting to have feelings for her as well.

When could she bring Jak to school. It wasn't enough for the kids to see them around town together. She needed Jak on the campus. A plan began to formulate.
