The room was filled with silence as a teenage boy sat quietly; staring at the two men in front of him. Not a single word had been spoken since he'd entered the room. Why? these people were here to adopt him, he didn't know why they wanted to. He was an antisocial teenager, his muscle mass was non-existent and his jaw line had barely started to come in. What 16 year old looks like a long scraggly string bean? better question, what person adopts a 16 year old.An elderly woman enters from a side door, "You must be Mr. Bosko. You said you were bringing your partner but I don't believe we were introduced." She smiles gently and holds out her hand. "I'm so glad you are interested in taking in our dear Raven. He needs a stable, loving home." The boy rolls his eyes at the woman's words; the man now known as Bosko stood and shook her hand.
"yes; this is my partner Barry. we've been looking for a child for a long time. Raven's portfolio seems very insightful. I'm surprised a boy his age is still here actually" Bosko said smiling at the elderly women; his partner seemed to busy studying the boy in front of him whilst Raven sat still. His foot tapping the floor as he waited for them to decide on a 'younger' model of adoptee.
"can we hurry up. I was busy you know" he grumbled; blowing his scruffy black hair out of his unusual bright violet eyes.Barry reaches out and ruffles the youth's hair,
"Easy there boy. Event happens with time, just be patient. 'Things come to those who wait' and all that." He chuckles at his own joke until Bosko nudges his arm.
"You must also know when to act," Bosco states sternly. "Balance is essential in everything. One must know when to act and when to be quiet and wait." Raven rolled his eyes and crossed his arms.
"when did I sign up for a physiological lesson? god. Can I go? I have 12 assignments to do by tomorrow." he grumbled standing up to leave; Bosko looked over and seemed to hold him self back from telling the boy off.
"why not sit down and just relax. We really want to get to know you Raven. why not give us that opportunity huh?" he asks; watching the teens glare land on him he felt a smirk tug at his mouth. "oh come now Raven. Your a young adult; dont be so childish~" Barry smirks, "Besides I think you mean 'philosophical' not 'physiological'. This is a way of thinking not the biological reason behind it. Why don't you tell us what you're studying kid. That way you can still be doing school work." Barry gives a, supposedly, charming smile and looks at the older woman, "I think you could give this poor guy a break since he's meeting potential parents don't you?" the older women nodded and smiled; leaving the room quietly. Raven's glare hardened and he sat in his chair going into complete and utter silence; Bosko frowned.
"Raven. we asked you what your studying; why not answer the question kid?" he asks looking into Ravens eyes; causing him to look away.
"what? come on; we wont bite~" Barry smirks again, "Well....we won't bite you anyways." Raven makes a disgusted face at the thought that popped up with that particular sentence. Bosko rolled his eyes and sighed a bit.
"ok; look kid. We really want a kid. Some one whos not going to need to go through potty training and all that; we might do that later on in life but you really; and I mean really; seem to be interesting. not to mention your the only teenager here without a criminal record" Bosko spoke with a tone that seemed contridicting to the facial expression he was giving; a 'I'm pissed off being here so hurry up and talk' look. Raven sighed and stood up.
"I shouldnt intrest you so just adopt someone else ok. I dont see a need or point in being anywere near a 'family' espically one that has no back round history" he gave the snide remark with a side glance, causing Bosko and Barry to freeze up.
"how did you-?" Raven interrupted him.
"I look up people who want to 'adopt' me." he hissed. Bosko leans back and gives him a once over
"Looks like someone is into hacking. A kid your age usually isn't allowed such information. Must be pretty good considering the lack of criminal record." Raven rolls his eyes and turns his glare to Bosko.
"so who are you and what do you really want?" Bosko waves his hand towards the door and Barry walks out. Staring down at Raven; Bosko states in slightly annoyed voice,
"We really do want to adopt you. Believe it or not we knew your parents. Before we could come and get you, you were put into the system and we have been tracking you even since. Now are you going to cooperate or are you going to be difficult." Holding Raven's gaze Bosko waits for a reply. Raven smirks a bit and glares back
"what do you think." he seemed to get a dark look in his eye; Bosko's stare turned into a glare as the air in the room seemed to thicken and become almost unbreathable to Raven. The teen tried not to show it was affecting him; that was until the room started to turn black. Shock struck him as he realized he was fainting; his body slid to the side almost hitting the floor if he hadn't been caught by Bosko himself; who just sighed and shook his head "I said to you; easy way or hard way. You chose wrong" he mutters as Raven's world faded to black.
