Alexander Sorokin was 12 year's old when the accident happened. Alex, his best friend Laken, and his father were all at the park having a great time; Alex's father Valentin Sorokin has been trying to get used to the single father life has his wife and Alex's mother passed away when he was only 3 in a fatal car accident. He watches at the two kids run around laughing, he told them don't run off too far he told them and they both nodded, Alex wanting to impress Laken climbed up a oak tree. Once he was up about 5 feet of the ground he stepped on a weak branch and fell straight down, Alex woke up in a hospital room and looked around as soon as a nurse walked in. As soon has she seen Alex awake she quickly got the doctor who checked on him, Alex looked at the doctor "What happened? My head hurts. I want my dad." The doctor and nurse looked at eachother then back at him "You had a accident and you were asleep for 2 months" the doctor told him. '2 whole months that doesn't seem right, it was yesterday that everything happened right?' He looked at a calendar 2 months as gone by "Where's my dad?" Alex asked before the nurse could say anything Alex's Aunt Denna and his cousin Ivan walked in "Oh my sweet Alex, you're finally awake" she walked over and hugged him. "Hi aunt Denna, I'm okay...where's dad?" Alex asked, the doctor and the nurse left the room along with Ivan. "Sweetie your dad won't be around for a while, he went on a vacation. I'm going to take care of you until he comes back." She told him while hugging him. Alex hugs back believing her, that was his first mistake; as they pulled away she sees the stitches on his head knowing they'll leave scars, she sighs and kissed his forehead "Go ahead and get some sleep sweetie." Alex nods and lays down slowly drifted off to sleep ignoring that gut feeling he had deep inside his gut.
