I'm usually quiet unless I'm with my friends or family. Though even sometimes then if I'm deep in my thoughts then I am extremely quiet. I ponder things too much. Sometimes it's about situations I've been in or going to be in. Other times it's about questions that can never be answered. I'm outgoing and athletic. I play on the Quodpot team, but I don't want to do it professionally. I like hanging with a few close friends and doing some girly stuff. I usually like to do more ungirly stuff like playing outside getting dirty. I don't sit in front of the mirror and pamper myself.

On a hot sultry day in July I came into this world. First born to my parents Matthew and Shelly Garard. Only July 29th to be exact at around 10:00 a.m. At least it wasn't at the hottest part of the day. Which was probably a relief to my mother. I was an only child for two years and then mom had twins Acheron and Autumn. Thankfully I wasn't jealous at all. I was protective over the twins, and if someone I didn't know wanted to hold one of them mom said I would growl at them much to my parent's amusement. Till I actually bit someone one day, and the man wasn't happy one bit. Which didn't go over good at all in Sanctuary. Though my dad and uncles and the other guys were laughing as they showed him to the door fighting them. Only to be literally thrown out like trash. They heard a few weeks later that he'd been found in an alley supposedly an animal attack, but he had been drained of blood. So definitely a vampire attack. That part I didn't know about of course till years later when it was brought up.

I had built in friends with the pack and the covenant. So I didn't have to go out to meet others. One would think I was shy, but I'm usually just reserved and retreat into myself or a good book. Often playing alone as well unless I was helping my younger siblings with something. Sometimes my friend and cousins can get me riled up and I have fun with them. Especially playing sports which I found I was pretty competitive at. The dirtier I got the more fun I had. I definitely wasn't one of those frilly girls always caring about their appearance. I hated dressed with a passion too. Either shorts or pants for me. I left the cute girly stuff to my little sister to have mom time with her. Course I had mom time, but it was different from what she had with Autumn. I was more Daddy's girl.

When I was seven and we were at the park I was kidnapped. I don't remember much of it as I was blindfolded, but I definitely was traumatized by it. My mom I believe was as well when she realized I wasn't where I was two seconds before. The pack and covenant had been called in and they searched everywhere for me, but I wasn't found. My scent had been covered up as well so they couldn't follow it. A ransom came later that day for me. Instead of money though they wanted someone who had taken sanctuary at our Sanctuary. Of course they couldn't give the poor woman up. The woman though said she would give herself up for me. She didn't want me going through the horrors that she had growing up with the rogue werewolves that were after her. In the end though knowing who had me they had an idea of where to find me, and they came for me wiping out the rogue werewolves. It was the first time I remember actually crying and clinging to my father when he took the blindfold off of me and held me in his arms trying to comfort me.

After that I didn't stray too far from the pack at all. Not like I had before, but now I was petrified of being kidnapped again. I even watched the twins like a hawk. Which I'm pretty sure mom was never taking her eyes off of me again nor the twins. After that we really didn't go to the park. In what little backyard Sanctuary had a playground was put up for us kids there with a wall surrounding it. Usually one of the pack guarding the entrances at all times too. Still when we were out there though mom was out there with us. I was homeschooled for a while after that afraid to go anywhere. It wasn't until months later that I went back only to be stared at by the other kids who wondered where I had been. Luckily I wasn't alone as my cousins were at school with me, and they kept an eye on me.

When I turned sixteen I excited to know I would be changing soon. I'd be able to protect myself more, but there was a fear inside of me wondering if I was confronted with danger if I would be able to change with my fear. I pushed those thoughts away the night I was finally getting to change. With my parents beside me talking me through it I changed and it was an experience that I will never forget. It was so different learning to run on four legs well paws instead of walking on my own two feet. I quickly got the hang of it and ran full out under the full moon with my parents, rest of my family and the pack.

Well I am seventeen now, and still have the fear of being able to change to protect myself. Luckily I haven't had to put it to the test, and hopefully I never do. It was New Years Eve and we were having a party. Us younger ones stuck up stairs hearing the music pounding through the building. The countdown was on as we stopped our games or dancing. Whatever we had been doing. Unfortunately at the stroke of midnight the ground started to quake. Screams were heard as it felt like an earthquake. Which shouldn't be happening around here at all. When I came to it was light out and when we went out on the balcony I gasped as we definitely weren't in New Orleans any longer. Where we were I had no idea. It was a whole new landscape. Others were coming out of buildings that looked like they shouldn't be here either looking just as shocked as we were. We were cut off from the outside world it seemed, and our fight was just beginning!

Jordan was grinning, and he started to say something, but got a weird look on his face as he was definitely thinking now. Images of the food were coming to mind, but he couldn’t for the life of him think of the names of the establishments the food was at. Now that he thought about it parts of it were blurry, but for the memory of the food and how it tasted. Thinking some more he let out a laugh. “Now that I think about it I can tell you the foods, but not the places.” He smirked as he chuckled a little more. “Cause we usually hit them after our pub run even though we eat a bunch while at the pub.” He was trying to piece together where they went after their pub run. He knew his wallet was usually empty the mornings after. The bar tab was only paid once a month so it hadn’t all been spent there either. “Well there is a Shepherd's pie to die for, at one of the places. Another has some excellent Applewood smoked BBQ Ribs. Oh there’s the lemon-herbed chicken that seems to melt in your mouth. There’s a sticky toffee pudding somewhere too that blows your mind.” He stopped to think some more about the food. “Josh always gets the steak and Kidney pie somewhere that’s in a bread bowl. I hate the kidney part though.” He admitted, but if it was something she liked. “Oh there’s Cornish pasties that are awesome, uhh somewhere too.” He furrowed his brow knowing they had to be here in Diagon Alley somewhere. He knew if he looked he’d recognize the place, but he still couldn’t think of the names of the places. “Hey you should join us for a pub night sometimes! Almost every one there is a Quidditch player or in the business of Quidditch. It’s not very well known in the community though to be honest. It’s been around for years though, cause my dad and his buddies used to hang out there. He’s the one who told us about it.” He grinned at her.

Jordan laughed hearing her and shook his head. He had more than his share of Quidditch things. He didn’t think he had better admit that though. Especially when he kept adding to it. Though the place where he and his brothers lived was more than big enough for it. Their friends were always crashing at their place. “Never know when something new might come in handy.” Was all he said to that. He grinned widely at her. “No definitely no lover. The youngest of the Matheson’s. Drew and Angel. Angel has her own Quidditch gear and clothes, but ours just seem to disappear and show up later with her either carrying it or wearing it. Since that’s been happening since she was little we are used to it now, and just replace it.” He shrugged since it was nothing new to him, and would probably still be happening when they were old and gray. “She’s not spoiled either. She works for what she gets the same as us boys. If she’s not thinking about Quidditch she has animals flocking to her.” He knew that could get a little overwhelming at times. He pointed over at the bookshelf in the far corner when she asked about the books. “There’s a whole section of books over there.” He grinned at her wondering if she had a one track mind when she came in here. He definitely didn’t. “Or you could come over and check out our library, and borrow some books.” He offered. He could spend hours in this store, and go back looking again seeing something he had missed the first time. Which sometimes wasn’t a good thing cause if it was something cool he’d pick it up for his siblings too. With how much he picked up he had bags full which was hard to get home then. Trying to apparate with that much stuff was unbearable. After losing some of his stuff one time he started taking the knight bus home.

“Follow me darling.” Jordan grinned when she asked about the gloves. He led her over to the gear section and pointed out the display of gloves that they had that was pretty impressive of the new brand Ollie’s Gloves. There were practically every color you could imagine there. “Ollie is a friend of mine. When he comes up with something new he has me and some others try his stuff out. After I try them out if they're good then I send whatever it is to Angel to try out at Hogwarts. If it’s not ready I let Ollie know for sure, and he works on it till he perfects it.” He explained to her. Sometimes it was a lot of fun trying out whatever Ollie came out. Other times it was disastrous. His brother Gregory had ended up at St Mungo's after one of those incidents. His mother had sent him more than one angry howler over that one. What was great was she had sent them to Ollie too telling him he better get his head on straight! “What’s awesome about these gloves too is that they come in one size, but they form to your hands after you put them on. So they are perfect then!” He said handing his items he had picked up to the clerk who came over to take them from him so he could pick up more if he wanted to. He hadn’t even noticed the girl checking him out and giving him a come hither smile.
