Kobras POV
I haven't seen my family in years. After i had Grace, and BL/ind found out it was me who was carrying her, they kidnapped me. They ran all kind of tests on me. As soon as i had her, they took her from me. All i knew, is that they took her to Zone One, far away from where they kept me. Rumour has it, my brother managed to take her back. I knew she would be in safe hands with my brother.
She was Jet Stars baby too, well, Ray. Jet Star is just his code name; he'd always be my Ray. I have no idea what happened to him. One minute, we were in a bathroom with a positive pregnancy test, the next, i was in the blindingly white halls of Better Living Industries. I just hoped that my daughter and my boyfriend were together, looking after each other.
Its been nine years. Nobody has found me. Every time i escaped, they took me back. I just hoped they were looking for me.
It was a sunny day, burning hot as always. Summer in the Zones was always scorching. I had to escape. My daughter would be eight years old today. I just want to see her again, for her birthday.
"Hey." I muttered, at one of the ladies with mid length hair and her hands clasped tightly together, "Look, you can trust me, right? Its
my daughters birthday and...i just want to see her."
She didn't respond.
"Do your ears work? You remember what happened, i've been here for years! I haven't seen my daughter at all!"
"I can't do that."
"Come on! Do you not have children? In nine years, i've seen her once, and that was when she was first born. Please, at least tell me she's safe.."
"Your daughter is no longer in Better Living Industries care."
"Is it true? Do the Killjoys have her?"
"Yes. The one known as Party Poison took her, when she was two months old. Personally, i'd be relieved, if i were you."
"Why?"
"Listen, you can't tell anybody. They were planning on running tests on her, because she came from two men. Im sure shes safe."
"Please let me go! Let me see my baby girl!"
I tugged on the ropes that tied my wrists to the chair, and then on the ones on my ankles.
"Michael." She said. I was confused. No one knew my real name, other than the Killjoys. Everyone just called me Kobra. "Please quieten down. I'd like to help."
"You would?"
"Mm. You don't think i know what its like to lose a child. They took my son, and i haven't seen him since he was a toddler. I know how much it hurts, and i want to bring you home to to her. I won't get to see my son, but your daughter is alive and well. She is with the other two."
"Two? What about Jet?"
"The one known as Jet Star? He ran away. He left as soon as you were kidnapped. He wanted to find you and your daughter, so he left the other Killjoys. Party Poison and Fun Ghoul took your daughter when Jet Star never returned. I'll help you escape at noon."

I ran as fast as i could, dodging past the Dracs who were shooting at me. She was dead, the agent was dead. She was protecting me, just so i could see my daughter again.
I finally got out of the building, and ran out into the dusty desert. It was the first time i had been free in a long time. I ran to where i remember the guys and i hanging out, not far from Dr Death Defyings home.
