Man:"who is she?"
as he gazes at a girl no more than six years with pity, lying unconscious in a concrete pipe used for construction with her face covered with blood.

Another man pushes him back," for god's sake help the poor child." as he picks her in his arms and rushes her to the nearby hospital. Her skin is cold as ice and her breaths are faint, almost impossible to detect.

The doctor nurses her back to health. "Who are you?" the nurse implies making her dark chestnut hair in a high pony tail, "I don't know" the girl answers, scared to death, water filled in her intense brown eyes, and tears dripping from her rosy cheeks.

The next day her picture is released to the media, she stays on the news, her picture in the headlines, no response reaches to any conclusion.

She remains in the custody of the police, and it is finally decided that she must remain under foster care system.

"What shall we call you?" asks the foster house caretaker, bending in front of her, the little girl, her little mind clenched in so many questions, she so confused, presses her teddy bear hard, "I don't know" she answers after a moment of silence." How about, Isabelle Jane Foster?" the caretaker says with confidence after thinking for a few seconds. The girl nods with a huge smile on her pretty face overloaded with innocence. "Okay Jane you and I are going to have lots of fun together." As she offers Jane her hand and takes her to the room filled with bunks and children, yeah children loads and loads of children, who are orphans yet very happy.

Jane, seeing the crowd smiles widely.

Jane Foster has no record of her existence until after six years of her life. Jane's past is known to nobody, not even to her, she doesn't remember a thing. The only thing she have that connects her to her parents is a long silver necklace with a heart shaped locket, her caretakers gave it to her when she turned 8 and told her that it was on her when they found her.

Jane has loved that necklace and carries it everywhere as it hangs on her neck.

Jane haves a mark on her left arm, it is right beneath the opposite side of her elbow, it's a mark of a tiny circle surrounded by further three tinier circles. It's believed to be a birth mark.

On her 9th birthday Jane was adopted by an elderly lawyer who lost her daughter in a car accident, her wife wanted a child to fill her space at least it's what they informed to the adoption agency.

The lawyer was wealthy man but he was oddly mysterious. The couple took good care of her; they socially taught her everything and groomed Jane for her upcoming life.

The couple was freaking rich; they owned a large mansion, so big that few parts of the house remained undiscovered. They had Mercedes Benz, 1978 Bentley porch and a white sparkling limo parked in their garage.

Three years passed by, the little family was happy but there were turn of events that changed Jane's life forever.

The cops came that night and took Jane in custody, the case went to judges and courts until one day while she was in the police custody, she received a letter.

Dear Jane,
You are the sweetest daughter I could ever wish for, but darling under the circumstances I had to vanish and for that I and your mother are truly sorry, my girl stay strong cause you are special ,very special my dear.
I hereby give all my wealth to Isabelle Jane foster and transfer my house, my cars and my lands in her name. www.cloudbanking.net haves
a complete inheritance document. Account number is 1489356711 password is LOYALTIES. I want Jane under protection, anything happens to her the consequences will be deadly.
-Mr. and Mrs. Timothy Irwin

The police trace the whereabouts of the letter but couldn't find any. Jane is declared the owner of everything after studying all the documents.

A 12 year girl that rich, with all of the greedy people in the world!

Her house was alarmed and security was arranged for her. Associates of her foster father took care of her, maids were hired.

Years passed Jane lived, missing her parents, foster and biological both. She would watch children walking holding hands with their parents as she was driven to the school every day with a driver a nanny and a security guard in her father's Bentley.

The disappearance of her foster father was much steeper than anyone could ever imagine.
