Jane Doe sleeps peacefully in her worn down twin size bed in her pitch dark room. People call this independent girl Jane because the poor female didn't have a name. The odd kid in the pack with no back story about her family. She didn't know who they are or if she has siblings. The thing is she doesn't care or desperate to find out either. All she want right now is a family.

She hears the rusty springs of her bed creek while her friend, Julie lone, shakes Jane till she is wide awake. "What time is it?" Jane says tucking herself further under her black blanket. "Noon, if you don't wake up soon they will get mad, you don't want them mad," the younger said pushing her sleepy friend off the bed. Only she knew what happens, she not the best child in the orphanage. Julie been in that building since she was 5, her parents got into a car accident but they didn't make out. They were on the way to pick their baby girl from school when a drunk high school dropout ran straight onto the side of the car. It flipped right over the edge of the road plummeting into water. There body was never found but their car and a pair of hearts was. The next week she was introduce to this hell whole. Now she is 13.

"Get the fuck up. They are coming down the hall," Jane flew up quickly making her bed and switching her baggy track pants to some jeans not bothering with her tank top and put a leather jacket on. Right as she was walking back to her bed two men walked in. "looks like they are all up," one whispered to the other.

Jane has been here for 12 years. Doing the same old routine. Wake up at 10, lunch at 12:30, open house at 2-6, bed at 10. In between you can meet and chat with friends. But the time she hated the most is the floor wake up check. Those two men stare at her for two, three minutes. It's like they are trying to figure her out. Asking questions like, why is she still here?  They all know about her past at westerberg high. The bomb. The suicide. What she saw was to shocking but it didn't affect her at all. Jane can feel their stares on the back of her head that drills so deep she wishes she can turn around and just slap them both. But then they leave.

"Let's walk as we wait for lunch," Julie says as she walks out the door and down the hall Jane feels to old to be in this place since she is the oldest. The blonde girl jogs up to Julie not wanting to lose her. The halls are like hotels. The weird patterned carpet. Windows every five second. Walls painted beige and doors on the right to where other orphans sleep.

It's the moment all orphans dream about every day: open house. When people who wants to adopt look at the orphans and pick. No one comes to the 7th floor to see the 13 to 16 year olds. Jane sits in her room at 3 when this one couple pass by her room. A black haired women short compared to her husband. The male hair styled perfectly, light brown. He is stronger then many security guards in the building. Jane can hear the females voice say

"Jane doe?" And that voice that is way to familiar but the orphan can't put her finger on it.

"Veronica,She looks good. Right age her description says she's smart," the male said

"Yah Robby, your right," Veronica says. That voice again and name. Still can't seem to pin it out. Then they leave. They leave Jane alone wondering. What, are these people going to adopt her? Are they just continuing on threw the halls? She can find out, she has to stay inside her room at all times.

The head of the orphanage sits at his desk waiting for one of the 5 couples to ask to adopt or just another couple to ask to look. The door open and Veronica and Robby step in.

" you must be Daniel Parker, Am I right?" Veronica said stepping closer

"May we please ask about on youge girl?" Robby asked sitting down not wanting to make a conversation with the head.

"Yes please, sit. Who is the young lady?"

"Jane doe?" Veronica sits. "Why doesn't she has a name?"

"Oh her. She grew up on the streets. Witness a lot of horrifying scenes. Came into the orphanage at age four. And now 16. She is also the oldest." Daniel answered relaxing himself he is chair.

"We would like to adopt her. Please," Robby took no time to talk more.

"By all means," Daniel took the piece of paper and pushes it towards them. He was shocked as the couple sigh. He didn't knew anyone will adopt a 16 year old girl.

"Jane, pack your bags. Your going home?" A guard said shocking the unaware girl in front of him. Jane steps out of her room to meet Veronica and Robby.

"I am Veronica and this is Robby. And you now have a name. Velvet sawyer."
