Sam and Daniel meet when they were about 14 -13 years old. It wasn't the best first meeting, Sam had just moved to the island and he was exploring the city, taking in the sight, finding mental landmarks, planning an escape route, finding the local gangs hangout when he came across a bunch of kids hi sage picking on a10 year old. Have a vast hatred for those who picked on those weaker then them just because they could Sam wasted no time attacking them he dealt with most easily but ruthlessly, breaking at least a bone or two but the apparent leader a boy named Brett was able to fight back and landed a good hit on his right eye but Sam throw him into a wall followed by a mule kick to the face knocking him out.

With the bullies taken care of, sam made to leave before someone came because of the screams and cries, he wasn't ready to meet the local law enforcement yet. When he was stopped by the boy he just rescued causes he had asked for his name. sam didn't say anything and just left. The boy tried to follow but sam was master at pulling a disappearing act on people. He thought that was the end of that only for the boy to track him down to his house.

Turns out his family was the only ones who had moved to the city in months. At first, Sam was planning to ignore him but he scrapped that idea when looked him in the eye cause in his eyes he saw the type of determination that got him on this island in the first place.

Giving up he gave the boy his name, and learned his name Daniel lost (it wasn't until about three weeks later that he learned he actually a few months older than him), they went to the same school (he didn't question it, he thought that he had skipped grades) and the ones who had been picking on him picks on almost everybody. Since he was new to the island Daniel thought the best way to pay him back was to be his tour guide Sam had no problems with this and it marked the beginning of an interesting but strong friendship.

During the course of their friendship, Daniel had learned that sam collected favors like one did stamps, so he wasn't against doing a favor for other plus he was fine and capable of doing a wide variety of tasks even those that were greatly questionable. So the fact that he was hesitating was kind of worrying to sam, that meant the flavor was close to the few things he wouldn't do as a favor or for other in general, like murder or helping to hide a body or being in a fake relationship (bad experience).

Turing to his skinny friend Sam narrowed his eyes "what is it" his suspicion clear.

"I need your help with a video game," Sam just raised an eyebrow "it's about conquering the world by conquering people in bed" are you kidding me was what sam's face said.

“Who makes a game like that? And where did you find it?”

“Internet” sam just sighed.

“Fine you can come over, but if my parents find out you are taking the blame” his parents worried when he got involved with things of the sexual nature not that he could blame after what had happened a year ago.

“Great” the train then arrived and after boarding, they made more planes for tomorrow and a few for the break like going to see a movie that was coming out, maybe try that new restaurant opening everyone was talking about or they could just vege out on Sam’s couch.

If asked they would both deny that the last one was most likely.

When the train reached sam’s stop he told Daniel “see you later” before he got off the train. Leaving the station he headed down the street to his house.

Halfway their Sam stopped and spoke out loud ”would you mind and give it a rest, I know you have been watching all day,” the only response was the sound birds flying in the sky “if your curious how I know its because I am remarkably sensitive towards negative emotions especially one aimed at me.’ again no response “fine don’t come out but I warn you I am the farthest thing from harmless” with nothing more to say sam walked the rest of the way home.

Hidden on a nearby roof the lady who had been stalking sam all day narrowed her as in annoyance, her mission was not going as she had pictured it at all with that absurd rune teacher and her target knowing about her all day moreover he didn’t seem to think she was a treat well that would a mistake he would regret.

As Sam entered his house he thought about the person who had followed him all day cause whoever they were they were quite patient to wait all day with all the negative emotions aim at him. But the real question was who were they, were after him because of something he did before or after he came to the island hopefully after it would be much easier to deal with them for that mostly because he has done many many things that got him on the bad side of many many people, but who it was whatever reason they were here he knew some way he would make it he all way has.

After he removed his gym shoes sam walked over to the fridge so that he could make himself some lunch, open it up he looks through to find something he was in the mood for and after a bit of decision he chooses some artificial chicken breast.

Placing the chicken breast next to the sink he grabbed a pan from the cabinets, some seasoning from the spice drawer, two slices of tart honey bread, giant goat butter (the goat was giant), and hot potato chips to snack on he was ready to cook.

First, he was the chicken and seasoned it, then he turns on the stove placed the pan on the hot spot and dropped a bit of butter into and let it melt before laying the chicken in the pan.

He then let the chicken cook as he dealt with the bread by placing it in the toaster to be lightly toasted.

By the time the bread was done, it was time to flip the chicken. After the bread cooled down enough he adds a bit of butter to is so it wasn’t dry.

Then putting the butter back in the fridge he grabby a ruby tomato and some Antartica lettuce, a few smooth nife movements later and there were thin slices of tomato and lettuce on his bread putting the vegetables back he turns to his now done chicken he grabbed a different knife and he cut the chicken into strips that went neatly over the lettuce and tomatoes before being cover with the other piece of bread. Plating his sandwich he moved over to the table so that he started his meal.

Not that he got the chance to, as before he could even pick it up for outside the lady had finished setting for completing her mission.

Going back to around the time Sam opened the fridge. The lady calmly and smoothly walked onto the street in front of Sam's house. Bending down she placed her hand on the ground and began to chant in a tongue unspeakable and unrecognizable by humans, as she spoke as black light appeared under her hand and then this black light slowly moved from under her hand circling the building, when the light returned to under her hand, the chanting she spoke changed to one of a more ominous nature, with the change the line of black light began to bubble and from it emerged symbols these symbols were nothing like the runes sam had learned over the course of his life they were much more.

More than a hundred and fifty of these symbols floated into the sky before the chanting increased in speed the symbols slow started to rotate around the building before moving faster and faster until the became nothing more then streaks of light.

“It is ready” she spoke just as Sam went to pick up his sandwich "let the trial begin"
