I guess I should give a little introduction and background, shouldn't I? Well my name's Malakai but most people don't call me that. They mostly call me things like Kai or MJ or KJ or my mom calls me Journey which is my middle name.

I have a twin sister Mercy but most people call her Adriana. I personally love her name but I never call her that, to me her name has always been "Sissy". Our mom even calls her Adriana. Our mom calls us by our middle names so I have no idea why she had our middle names just be our first names but I don't question it. As long as moms is happy, I'm happy.

As you can probably tell, I'm kinda the protector of my mom and my sister. I love my mom to death and I'd die for my sister in a heartbeat. Even though I was born about 30 seconds before Mercy, I've always just done whatever I could to protect her.

With all that being said, I was a trouble maker growing up. I was always getting into something. I went from being a prankster when I was a little kid, to hanging out with the wrong crowd in high school and engaging in some unhealthy habits if you catch my drift. I have so many memories of getting jumped and fighting until I was a freshman. Finally my mom said enough was enough so she sent me to live with my grandma.

I was always the biggest Grandma's boy growing up so my mom thought I'd straighten up. I really didn't change until the summer going into sophomore year. The change came when I woke up in a hospital bed with a broken orbital bone in my right eye. I was busted up and black and blue which broke my Grandma along with my mom and Mercy's heart. When I saw the fear and heartbreak in the eyes of the strongest women I know, I knew I had to change.

I stopped hanging out with certain people and doing the wrong things. The biggest change came when JJ Alexander came into my life. He went through something similar so he took me under his wing. He helped me clean up and gain healthy habits. One of those healthy habits I picked up was regaining my love for music.

Mercy and I both love music and we're both really good singers but I think she's better then me. Grandma loved to hear us sing so she'd always ask us to perform "concerts" for her where we'd sing random songs for her which we all loved.

JJ actually taughr me to play guitar and drums which is very useful when I have problems. JJ knew I really loved Linkin Park and actually introduced to Chester. I was actually able to form a good relationship with Chester before he oassed. JJ really helped me through his oassing.

He also helped me with football when I started playing my junior year. After football season my junior year, JJ started training me to wrestle.

Through wrestling I was able to meet an amazing girl, Faith. We met at an indie show and immediately clicked. We're both singers so that was something we bonded over. We talked constantly for about a month before we became official and we've been together for about a year and a half. I'm extremely happy but Mercy along with mom and Grandma don't seem to like her. They say they're glad I'm happy but I can just tell they aren't big fans of Faith.

We all caught up now? Cool so anyway today was a big day for me. I along with my Twin sister Mercy just had a try out for the WWE. Working for the WWE is a dream we've shared our entire life and we gave it everything we had.

I took a long shower to decompress before I got out. I got dressed and went and sat on the couch. I was scrolling through my phone when I got a phone call from a Florida number that I answered.

Me: Hello?

???: Is this Malakai Collins?

Me: Yes?

???: This is Jason Bloom from WWE. The coaches and I just went over everything from the try out. We were very impressed with you and your sister so we're calling you guys to tell you there are contracts waiting for both of you on my desk tomorrow.
