"On the twelfth hour of the first day of October 1989, 43 women around the world gave birth. This was unusual only in the fact that none of these women had been pregnant when the day first began. Sir Reginald Hargreeves eccentric billionaire and adventurer, resolved to locate and adopt as many of the children as possible. He got eight of them."

At present
Alyssa listened to the radio. Humming along the song that played. Tapping her converse against the brown wooden floor matching the rhythm of the song.

Tracing the beautiful tree she just drew with her paint brush that had black paint on it. Definitely going to cause a cramp later on.

Unexpectedly the radio just glitched to another station revealing a man talking "breaking news Sir Reginald Hargreeves has been pronounced dead after having a heart attack-" 

she immediately cut it off. Of course her anxiety getting the best of her. Her breathing growing heavy in parallel with soon began to catch her breath.

All she could get out was "oh no" she quickly laid hands on her light brown duffel bag and left.

As she reached the stone steps. she stared at the same old building she was in years ago. All the memories came to her it was like she could hear her laughter along with her siblings.

The second she opened the door and gained access into the Academy. She examined the place as if it would be different she was wrong it was the exact same. When she'd last thought it would be the last time she would glance or even be here for the last time. Which was in years. A familiar voice startled her making Alyssa turn towards the friend she's always had. The Chimpanzee was standing their knowing it was the same 15 year old girl. "welcome home miss. Alyssa" "Pogo I missed you so much"

She meant it when she said she missed him I mean she hasn't seen him in years. She hugged him and pulled away from the hug. Pogo examined the 15 year old girl.

"Miss. Alyssa you still look..."  "young yeah. Ever since five left My body never grew but my consciousness aged like the rest of my siblings. But it's so good to see you. How have you been? and where are my brothers and sisters?" 

"Its been quite sad since your father died and your siblings were just asking for you, you should go look for them" " will do, and I am so sorry to hear that pogo I know father meant so much to you" "it's good to have you back miss. Alyssa"

Father never really showed love to any of the children. Maybe only Luther but that's it. Luther wouldn't shut up about his times with father. Alyssa would think about burning his tounge. Reginald was a man with no feelings. But the children eventually got used to his dark presence. Hell the children not once have even seen him smile. Which was unfortunate.

Alyssa smiled showing her dimples and walked away. She heard her siblings call her "Alyssa?" "Aly?" "Lia?" She turned around. She distinguished, and observed the adults features. As they surrounded her.
