Author's POV

Jessica never knew her parents,she has been in foster care for as long a she can remember,she was only about 3 months old when she was left at the door of the foster care building.

The only thing she had from her parents was a bracelet that had the initials 'A' on it ,it looks like a locket but it never opens.

She grew up to be an extroverted and bubbly child,she had grey eyes that looked very lively.

She was a very adorable child,but she still didn't get a home immediately,while other children were taken out into a new home, Jessica was never chosen.

Because as soon as she started saying words ,she would talk to her self,she would reply to things like she was having a conversation with someone.

This put lots of couples off ,and most of them would freak out over that ,when she was 6 other kids her age got taken away.

She was the only one left,all her friends were gone,her personality begun to change it,she started to socialize less as More children came in .

She would often stay up at night talking to herself, nobody would speak to her.
When she grew older,she stopped talking to herself or anyone else.

And would only speak when needed .

At 13, Jessica was still in foster care,

While taking her bath one morning she looked in the mirror and color drained from her face as she stared at her head.

She screamed wrapping a towel over her head ,the foster workers came to check on her and she panicked and begged them to get her a head warmer.

They were a bit taken aback by the sudden request but they still obliged ,since then she never took off the head warmer.

She got questions from her colleagues and the workers about why she covers her hair but she refused to answer.

She does not have to answer to anyone.

After she turned 14 she was finally taken in by a family the Dickson.

Her life was made a living hell and after 2 years of tolerating it she ran back to foster care,where she pleaded while crying she did not want to go back.

Just a month later she was thrown into another foster home, Jessica made up her mind,no matter what happens she will stay in her new home and run away when she clocks 18.

The Collins,her new family found her weird just like the last family did ,they had many guesses as to why she covers her hair 'bald, bleached, dye' and so on

She did not care enough to correct them .

She has been staying with her current family for almost 7 months,she got a job at the Shirley's a few weeks after she arrived at her new home.

Jessica could not wait to turn 18,she has been saving up to get an apartment, Shirley(her boss) already volunteered to help her.

She was very grateful to the lady tho she never says it.

Jessica's POV

I finally got home after that weird occurrence,I figured I just need to sleep,I might be high on sugar .

I got yelled at by my foster mom for coming home late, then she requested money for 'rent' I gave her the money and just went to the basement.

I only stay in a room when the social services come to visit.

I changed out of my clothes,and the card fell out of my pocket,I took it and stared at it 'bullshit' I tossed it somewhere across the room and I fell asleep immediately I hit the mattress.

Not knowing what awaits me the next day...

The next day.

I jolted up from where I slept, I shut my eyes as it reacted to the brightness, I let out a yawn stretching then I opened my eyes widely blinking as my brain registered my surrounding.

I was in a room that seemed more like lab ,I am in a white bed in a room painted white.

I scrambled back with a frown 'what the fuck' I thought as I looked around 'where am I?' ' did I get sold by my foster family'

I heard someone clear their throat and I looked to my side to see a bunch of people staring at me or rather at my hair.

A tall lady with very dominant aura walked towards me with her heels clicking on the marble floor,she had this weird orange eyes,her brown hair was tied to perfection and she wore thick rimmed glasses.

"Hello, little girl" "what the fuck?" I said looking around,they were starting at me like I was some lab rat .I spotted the 2 men from yesterday "i only punched a guy ,you can't do shit to me im 16!" I yelled and the lady stared calmly at me .

She looks scary,I'm not gonna lie .

"Welcome to Wolverton" I stared blankly at her.

"Right,the insane people" i mumbled to myself but I am sure she heard .

"Jessica, right?" I didn't reply.

I suddenly got more aware of the situation and my surrounding.

"I need my head warmer" I said and she stared at me before she motioned to a man that passed me my head warmer.i put it on immediately.

Making eye contact with everyone.

The lady stood in front of me "you have handled this calmly than the others"
'they have done this to other people'

The fear crept in ,I wondered what they do to people.

"T-this is a kidnapping you know?,you can get arrested for this" i wanted to sound confident but my voice betrayed me .

"Yeah,yeah ,as if the police can find this place " she waved me off.

"I am Mrs Onyx,I run the academy" she introduced.

"Hurray for you, someone give Mrs Onyx a cookie" I said and she smiled.

"I like you already, let's see how long you will last among those animals" she smirked.

And I frowned in confusion before speaking "listen as much as I would love to stay in this God forsaken mental hospital,I have a job and I will not like to get fired,so if you would excuse me-" I got up .

I felt a stinging sensation in my neck and my vision blurred.

Mrs Onyx's smile was the last thing I saw before I blacked out.
