Hi guys, this part takes place two years before the story begins. I'm just going to have a bunch of memories. I'm also using you/your pronouns.
"Sean, Sean, wait up!" I said, racing toward him.
"y/n, I'm not stopping for you!" Sean yells back.
Sean enters the kitchen and screams, "Mom, what are you making for dinner? I'm starving!" He walks around the house, pulling apart every room."Mom? Dad, where are you?"
Sean walks into your parents' bedroom and sees their lifeless bodies on the ground. He shrieks, "AHH! y/n come in here quick!"
You come into the bedroom and look at the floor astonished. Then, the realization hits you, your parents are dead. You break out into tears. "Why, Why? We're only 14! Why?" you whisper.
Spot walks to mom's jewelry box and takes her key necklace. He puts it around his neck.

"We have to change our names," Sean tells me on the way to work.
I reply, "Why?"
"So Mr. and Mrs. Conlon can adopt us without knowing our real names."
"Sean, we should name you Spot."
"Why?"
"You had chicken pox when we were younger."
"Okay, I'll be Spot Conlon then."
"I'll be Flame Conlon since I'm quick-witted and fiery."
"Sure!" Spot smiles at me. Then continues walking down the sidewalk ahead.

[Spot's POV]
I'm bored out of my mind. I wish I could eat the cookies and drink the coffee I give the customers but oh well. Suddenly, a gang of boys walk into Starbucks laughing and playfighting like family. I wish I had a family that's not just my twin sister. One of the boys walks up to the cash register and yells, "HI! I'M THE DUMBASS WHO WANTS A MACCIATO MOCHA CHAPIATTO EXPRESSO WITH SPRINKLES AND FUDGE NOW!"
Flame comes out from behind the counter. "Would you like a black eye with that too?"
"Dang, Racetrack just got roasted so hard. I think I'm going to..."
"SHUT UP MUSH!" The boy named Racetrack said.
"Sorry about them. I'm Jack and that's Davey, Kid Blink, Snipeshooter, Specs, Skittery, Mush, Boots, Bumlets, Pie Eater, Snoddy, Itey, Ten Pin, Dutchy, Swifly, Jake, and Snitch." Jack says pointing at people as he names them.
"It's okay. Happens all the time. I'm Flame and that's my brother Spot."
"Nice to meet you Flame and Spot. Would you like to hang out with us?" Davey says.
I look at Flame, "Yes!"
