Scarlett has become daring and has left her home. She becomes involved in some rather dangerous activities and then hops on a scooter behind a boy she doesn't know. He takes her to the basement of a warehouse she has never seen where there are some doubtful looking adolescents, one of whom she knows and also knows that that girl hates her parents. Pretty soon, police arrive and poor Scarlet has to go to a police station for questioning. She has to find somewhere to sleep and then has to attend a court hearing. After visiting her Indigenous friend on a city street she finds she still has to have somewhere to sleep so accepts the scooter boy's invitation to go back to his parent's place. This proves unsatisfactory and Scarlett spends the next night on the footpath but after that gets the train to her own suburb where she find a friendly homeless woman she knows. This woman is helpful. Once in her own suburb Scarlett is better off and goes to Centrelink; thereafter she finds the patch where her parents used to sleep and takes up lodging there. Due to the help of good friends, she begins to have much better luck and she enrolls in an Aged Care course things. From here on the story is a secret.
