Note: All of this is in Sokovian but I'm too lazy to translate all of it plus it would be annoying for yous to read so let's just pretend their speaking Sokovian.

Age 9

"Clementine!" The female voice called "Clementine!"

"Yes mama" I skip into the tiny kitchen where my mother is, running around with smoke everywhere from the stove.

"Tell your father I need him to help me with this" She asks, her long wavy brown hair falling over her face which she blows away.

Turning on my heels I walk down the cramped hallway which is filled with family photos. reaching the bottom door, the bathroom, I knock on it "Papa, mom needs your help" I say but there's no reply.

"Papa" I knock again, the door creeks open slightly. Hesitantly i push it open, My eyes widening at my fathers hand hanging over the edge of the bath covered in blood.

"Clementine What is taking so long" My mother walks up behind me.

"Alek!" My mother screams, pushing past me, falling to the ground beside him, shaking him franticly "Clementine Go ask for help next door!" She yells but I'm in too much shock to move.

I stand there frozen, watching the blood pour from his wrists "Erik! Erik!" She yells for my twin brother who runs down the hall. She tells him what to do and he quickly scatters off out of the door.

My father died that night. He was a manic depressant so wasn't much of a shock since he had attempted it before. We moved into the city for a fresh start and that's when my mum met Daniel Scout, An American who was here for 'charity work'.

Age 11

"Do you think Mama and Daniel are going to get married?" I ask my brother as we walk down the dark street with carrier bags full of food from the local shelter since we can't afford much.

"I hope so" Erik replies "I like him."

"Me too" I nod

"You only like him cause he bring you books from America" Erik punches my shoulder.

"Blah blah" I mock him.

"That's rude" He punches my shoulder.

"I'm allowed to be rude, I'm older" I stuck my tongue out at him.

"By 10 minutes!"

I go to reply but we suddenly hear a woman screaming at the top of her lungs for help.

Erik drops the bag, running in the direction "Erik!" I yell for him, looking at the food rolling on the ground. I groan, dropping the bags i'm holding chasing after him.

I turn into a ally way as a women runs out, Erik is hanging form a mans arm screaming at him. A loud bang rings threw my ears making me jump, squeezing my eyes shut. I open them only to see the man now running away and Erik lying on the ground

"Erik!" I gasp, running to him, falling down beside him, His stomach is covered in blood as he gasps for air "someone help!" I scream, covering the bullet wound.

"Your gonna be okay" I cry, looking down to him as tears pour from both our eyes "Help!"

"Clem, You- You need to loo- look out for Gwen" He manages to say, reaching his hand up to my cheek.
