The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (Liv and Maddie)

Prologue

Having someone you can count on has got to be one of the hardest things to find in life. For liv and maddie, it wasn't something they had to go after for, because they already had it. They were born with it. Trust, love, friendship and everything in between.

Ever since they were born, no person could talk about one if they didn't mention the other. It was almost as if they were the same person. And in some way, that was true, despite being completely different individually, together they were one.

On one side, we have liv, she's the perfect girl, the one you turn to look at whenever she enters the room. Her dreams and aspirations are as big as the beautiful blue sky, and that's precisely why she got where she is. Hollywood superstar, her parents darling, a "successful teenager that has a bright future in this medium. If she keeps on like this, we'll have to watch out because she'll take the world by storm" NYC post commented. 

If anyone from steven's point, the little town where she lived, had a chance of becoming someone, it was her.

Then we have maddie. She's determined and not a conformist, you will never see her settle for something less than she expects. At age 13, she tired her chemistry teacher with a test she failed by a point she claimed was not wrong. He wasn't intending in acknowledging anyone's complaints, but with her, it was very difficult not to listen. She basically forced him to change her grade, but at the end of the day she got what she wanted. The same she did with basketball, her forever passion. She pushed and pushed herself to become the best player in her school and one of the best in her town. And so, she did.

One day, when Liv was 9, she received the most amazing news, she had been casted as the main character in the next big musical tv show "sing it loud". She was happy, maddie wasn't. Her other half was leaving her to go to LA, how could she be excited? Liv was partly sad, but the thought of her dream becoming true was stronger. Maddie didn't want to let liv go. But she understood. She didn't want her sister to not accomplish her dreams. So, she understood.

And so, the day came, everybody said their goodbyes. Joey and parker too, the younger brothers. Olivia looked as if she had received the worst news in her entire life, anyone would think that one of her family members had died. But, in reality, it was because maddie gave her a present when they were saying goodbye. A charm bracelet.

"This will keep us together liv" maddie said crying. "I don't want to say goodbye" liv replied. "Look, I have one too, so we will never be apart" maddie showed her sister the platinum bracelet with small pins dangling.

Karen, their mom, started calling for liv. it was time. They gave each other a final hug and as liv looked saddened at her sister's devastated face because of her departure, she said...

"I have to go"

Then she walked through the door while she grabbed her mom's hand, the only support she would have the first days in LA, but shortly after, she would be on her own, the thing she was scared about. But that fear went away faster than she expected. Liv moved with her aunt Dina, and she was happy to be there, it felt like home even when her family was 2000 kilometers away in Wisconsin.

The tv show was a success. Then when it was over and liv had to go back, everything had changed.
