I was born lucky. That's why it's my name. I come from a long line of female engineers and scientists, when there smarts and intelligence is pasted down to me. My father was floated before I was born and the only reason my mother wasn't as well was because she was carrying me. My mother was floated 6 months later and all I have left of her was a letter. The letter said that I brought her good fortune and that after she was gone I would carry that luck to the human race. She said that my ancestors would guide me into my life on the ark like they did with her. The people that knew her said I looked exactly like her. Twins almost. We even had the same birthmark on the back of our necks shaped in a sideways eight. Becoming an iPhone at that age was almost unheard of on the ark. I mean most people had no parents or one but at 6 months old was very unusual. So I got put with a man around 50. Elliot Tucker. He wasn't nice. He was a drunk and traded my rations for moonshine and pills. It got really bad at nights so instead of going home I would go on walks. I meet this little girl she was really hungry so I snuck into farm station and stole her some food. It was meant to be a one time thing but then I just started getting more and more costumers. The Blake's, the Murphys, the mbges. Lots of family's that were poor. I knew this wasn't what my mother wanted with my life but I was helping people. Eventually when I would come home late Elliot would start to make inappropriate comments. One not meant for father and daughter. I came home late one day and he was extra mad then usual. He asked me where I had been and I told him I was with a friend. Apparently he didn't like this and slapped me across the face. I was 8. I never went to school but I knew this wasn't what I family was meant to do. I ran. I ran and ran and ran until I stopped at the end of a hall. I didn't know what to do I was so young. I couldn't tell anyone. If I could no one would believe me. I slid to the floor and cried. A door opened at the end of the hall and a man came out of the door and looked to the floor. He said his name was Sinclair and he was the chief of engineering. I told him what happened and said I don't ever want to go back cause he will do it again. He told me I don't have to do back. He went to the board the next day but they said they wouldn't do anything about it. That it wasn't a big concern. I went back the day after. When I came back he didn't slap me no. He punched me. I fell to the ground and then he kicked me. I stayed on the floor whimpering. He walked off and went to bed. When I was sure he was gone I went to the man again. He told me that I could stay with him. I would just need a new name to make sure he would never come and find me. Agatha harkness. The name I chose. It was a name of a super villain I had read about in an old comic I had been given by a boy I would drop stuff off to. From then on I spent every living moment of mine in engineering. I was the youngest engineer ever and started space walking at 12. When I wasn't in engineering or dropping of stuff I had stole, I was in medical following around a guy a few years older than me. I think he was 19. His name was Eric Jackson. I learnt everything from him and the only reason I wasn't going to become a doctor was because doctors couldn't space walk. One day when I was fixing wires under the floor of the ark when I came across a girl. What was a girl doing in the floor? She looked the same age as me. Maybe a little younger. She looked very scared to see me. Her name was Octavia Blake. I knew her mother from drop offs. From then on we became friends and told each other everything. She told me about her brother and I told her about my space walks. I even taught her how to play chess. Apart from Octavia I didn't really have many friends. I was close with some kids on farm station and I even made friends with another thief called Nate. He was friends with Harper so so was I. I was happy with my life. I had friends and I loved being an engineer. I stole sure but that was for the survival of others. But on September 3rd 2129 Octavia got sick. I visited her under the floor that morning and saw she was coughing bad. I had spent enough time with Jackson to know it was bad so after my shift in engineering I went to medical. I saw no one was in the room so I slipped 3 pills. As I was leaving I bumped into the head doctor Abby griffin. She smiled and went on her way used to seeing me in medical. She walked over to the medical box and just as I was about to walk off she stopped doing what she was doing and looked over to me. I was arrested before I could get the Medicine to Octavia. When in the room with the conical they discovered that Agatha harkness was not a registered. I was placed in solitary to be floated at 18. That was 912 days ago. And I still sit looked up.
