Some people think that my childhood might be tragic. It really wasn't. Besides my father favoring some of my other siblings and having my family and friends die one by one it was a ok childhood. I remember that me and two of my siblings, Virgil and Iris, would do nearly everything together. We were unsepreable. 

As a kid, before we moved, me, Virgil, and Iris would spend time reading, playing board or card games, or where we would mainly be, playing soccer with our other siblings and some of our friends and cousins. Though, as time went on, and my family ended up moving with one less person, we all fell out of playing soccer. Surprisingly me, Virgil, and Iris all ended up playing a different sport, volleyball. We were actually pretty good at it. After about a year after we moved, our older brother, Micheal, ended up playing with us as well. Me and Virgil played as wing spikers/blockers and Micheal and Iris played as setters. Me and Virgil could set pretty well and Micheal and Iris could spike pretty well. 

Growing up into my pre-teen and teen years me, Virgil, and Iris, along with our friends, ended up becoming the 'popular' kids. It seemed that a lot of people were scared of us and some people already hated us because they thought that we would bully people that weren't popular. In truth, we weren't popular at our school, we were popular because of our fathers work, the show performances we did, and our volleyball games. None of us really cared how people saw us though, as long as we had each other to trust and be with everything would be fine. 

Now, that's what we thought, by the time I was 13, I had seen my mother die, my older brother Terrence die, my younger brother Chris die, my younger sister Whitney die, and my youngest sister Hannah die. That wasn't even all. I had no clue what would come next. After the twins, Whitney and Chris, died, their friends started to die or go missing. By the time I was 14, my older brother, Micheal, ended up going missing, Virgil seemed to think that he had died and later on we discovered that Micheal did infact die. It didn't get better from there. While I was still 14 some of my friends started to die or go missing. First, was Tyler, he was my age, he got into a car crash. Next was Willow, she was Iris' age. she ended up getting some sort of disease when she was 11, so I was 13 at that time, by the time I was 14 and she was 12, she ended up dying. I remember watching as my friends would die one by one. On my cousin, Charlie's 14th birthday, me, Virgil, Iris, some of our remaining friends, and her remaining brother, found her dead. 

Things went downhill from there, as most of the deaths had been spread out they started to happen more often. Some people started to blame deaths of people on me and my siblings. When I was 15, Virgil was 14, and Iris was 13 our father had tried to arrange a marriage. The other kids didn't want to do it either. We ended up running away to our friends house. That's when things really started to take a turn. Not long after we ran our father became a wanted person. One day, when me, Virgil, and Iris got back from volleyball practice we found our friends dead. That night, we mourned and quickly left for our own good. The very day after our father became wanted and our friends had died, our father went missing- or, as me and my siblings know, he died. 

I guess you might say that what I just explained was pretty much my childhood. I won't lie, that was pretty much my childhood. Of course I ended up dying when I was 16. My siblings, Virgil and Iris, died on the same day I did. Iris died a couple minutes before me and later I found out by watching one of the video clips that Virgil had died a bit after me. 

To the rest of the world it may seem like my life was either a mess or it was perfect. Well, it wasn't completely a mess and it was no were near perfect either. I can tell you something though, I had my siblings, Terrence, Micheal, Virgil, Iris, Chris, Whitney, and Hannah, I had my friends, Alice, Eric, Tyler, Skye, Ember, Alex, Willow, and Leo, I had my cousins, Remy, Samuel, Nathan, Charlie, and some others. Heck, I had my cousins and siblings friends, my aunts, uncles, grandparents. I had a bunch of people, and someday I'll be able to see them again. For now though, all I can do is think of the days of the past.
