**CHAPTER ONE**
*25 YEARS LATER*
She is now sitting on the flight to Shadow Hub. She don't know why she's going there lying to her parents that she's going to her friend's home town for her birthday. But why? Is it because of the conversation between her parents which she 'accidently' ear dropped?
It was almost 24 hours ago she witnessed realised her whole life was a lie moment. She was shocked will be a understatement. The 25 years of her life was about living in a lie. Never ever in her life she haven't thought, not even the time she used to whined for not having her mamma's rare green eyes nor even when she pouted for being a shortie not having her both parent's height trait , just because you haven't got your parents genes doesn't mean you're not their offspring right? Genes can be dominant and recessive right? that's what she learned in her medical books. But in her case the reason she haven't got any traits of her parents was because that SHE ISN'T THEIR CHILD!. Exactly that's what she earned 24 hours ago.
With a Sigh she leaned back to her seat. What was the purpose of this trip ? To Shadow Hub? Because she earned that her real parents belong to there? But why? She don't want to see them. She already despise them even without knowing anything. For leaving alone her. For throwing her away. What if her parents...her adoptive parents haven't took her? But how did they even got her? From Shadow Hub? or from North Hub?. She haven't been Shadow Hub. She haven't been anywhere other than North Hub. It's not like she have any memory of being abandoned by her real parents to know where she was. But thinking about it makes her heart Swell. Why they left her? why they didn't wanted her? It's not like she care, the ones whom she raised by were the best parents one could ask for but still still hurts somewhere knowing she's actually not theirs. Knowing she's not wanted to her real parents. She meant nothing to them? Does they know She's alive does they know she grew up faraway from Shadow hub to an independent woman? Practically knowing they left her .... they just don't care. Does they have even gave her a name? What's her real Family name?
Vynsia shook her head coming out from that useless thoughts. She doesn't care about it. Yes she had a name her Mamma and Daddy gave her an elegant name Vynsia Lesseo Vaughn . That was enough more than enough. Even though she preferred the nickname 'Vicky' which her Grandmother gave her.
And this trip.....yeah it's to find her parents not to hug and cry nor for revenge..... maybe just to see them? She knew it's dumb stupid but she's sitting in the flight to Shadow Hub right? so no going back now. That's what her father taught her. But she's tensed not only because of her real parents waiting there in Shadow Hub,but the Shadow Hub itself. Even though she knew her mamma
was the sister of the ex Shadow leader The Alexander Gray Deville she haven't met her uncle. Nor anyone her mamma's family. Family issues she guess. But Shadow Hub and Shadow Weavers are deadly she know it she have heard about it but not anything which helped.Speaking about Shadow Hub... It's under Shadow Weavers gang .. from what she heard from best friend Kelly, who is a professional hacker and the one who is interested in underworld, told her Shadow Weavers took over the Shadow Hub completely during 1999 or something and the current generation of shadow Weavers consist of 5 members. The most deadliest generation til now. That's what Kelly said people called it. Unlike all generations of shadow Weavers this generation don't have a leader she said it's because five of them control eachother or because they can't be controlled or whatever. Moreover one who could have chosed a leader was possibly Alexander Gray Deville. According to Vicky's theory he should have chosed his own son Daniel Alexander Deville as the leader but he didn't so there wasn't favouritism. WOW! MORALS! In this world!
Because of Kelly's current mission on Black Forte she wasn't able to talk more... Uh ... it was literally a two hour long call . Considering Kelly's situation even though she wanted she wasn't able to talk to Vicky more.
But those 2 hours was enough for her bestie, who acts like her mom to hear all the drama happened in less than 24 hours and to calm her anxiety and worry filled mind. Even though kelly was shocked by all these dramas she didn't failed to calm her friend from her intense thoughts and worriers of not knowing what her real identity is. It took time. But she's was more shocked knowing Vicky's decision to go Shadow Hub, she strictly protested but Vicky was persistent after a point Kelly didn't pushed futher even though it was a stupid idea Vicky have the right to know her real parents. In the end Kelly decided to accompany her.So Kelly Just told her that she'll send a brief information about the Shadow Hub and Shadow Weavers by then.
Vicky is only 4 hours away from Shadow Hub...but Kelly will only reach by tomorrow since she's in Black Forte.

The sky above of the shadow Hub is almost dark, cool breeze embraces Vicky as she walked out of the airport with her luggage she's currently waiting for her cab which is 20 minutes away . She took that time to appreciate Shadow Hub's weather....God she loves it! It's her type of climate! Moisty weather...dark sky...cool breeze yes that's it. Climate wise Shadow Hub is her type of place than North Hub but she's sure that her bestie is not gonna like it here. Kelly is a summer person completely opposite to her .
Vicky closed her eyes enjoying the breeze and the feeling...God she's already liking it here... maybe Shadow Hub isn't that bad *Bang*!!!!
