"What's this about shank?" Minho shouted when the group of men sat them down, that was the last thing I heard because the guy called Atticus took me into a tent. "Take a seat Y/N" he said sweetly, I sat down on a beaten up armchair (I have a thing for those kind of chairs) and he pulled a chair and sat in front of me, in his hand he had a rectangle piece of paper. "This is a photo I want you to look at" he began and held out the photo, I didn't want to look I was scared of what was on it. "Uh-"I started to say but he took my hand, his skin was callous and rough and he put the photo in my hand. "Please, look at it" he said, his face faced the floor as I turned the photo over.

In the picture was a boy he looked about 8 years old, but I recognised the hair and the beautiful look of his face. The boy in the picture was Atticus, his face was looking around to the younger girl on his back, she had my hair and my eyes and she was laughing. Her arms were covered in bruises and cuts. It was me. "What is this?" I said feeling a lump in my throat and a tear form in my eye.

"Y/N, I'm your brother, don't you remember me?"

"How can I have a brother? I don't have 'parents'"

"No, neither do I. They made me first using the eggs and sperm from the same people as they made you. But when they made me...I got to 8 years old and they threw me out of WICKED because I wasn't perfect enough"

"But, I don't understand, why didn't they throw me out?"

"Because you were the perfect test subject. As soon as you were 4 they were doing tests on you, I watched them cut you and torture you and every time you would come crying to me, I was 7. Then they decided that you were enough and they kicked me out on the street when I was 8 years old."

"Why don't I remember you?!"

"Because they changed your memory"

"Yeah but I got my memories back..."

"You didn't even remember hearing my name?"

"No, I remember your name! I just couldn't place it to a face or to why I know it"

"That memory was taken from you a long time ago it's only right you wouldn't really remember, how old are you Y/N, How are you? I mean are you immune? Or where have you been the last decade, we have so much to catch up on and a relationship to get back an-"

"Woah. Calm down Atticus. I've just found out I have a brother...you're expecting me to run into your arms and be totally cool with it?"

"Well no, but. Ok I know you want some time to come to terms with it, but you're so beautiful, and you look strong! Just tell me how old you are?"

"I'm 21"

"I've missed seventeen years of your life! Where have you been, what have you been doing? Are any of those guys your boyfriend? Does he treat you right-"

"I can't do this right now Atticus" I said, his face dropped and I walked out of the tent, past my friends and around the corner of a building before I pressed my hands against the stone wall. I was having a panic attack, I was breathing heavily and I felt my lungs giving up on me. 'Come on, get yourself together" I kept repeating but my breathing just got heavier. I pressed my hands harder against the wall trying to ground myself but it was too much information at once. Everything went dark.

So a lot of you guessed who atticus was J

I will be going more into atticus' back story in the next part so if things seem confusing then I will clear a lot of things up in the next chapter don't worry.

Thank you guys for reading! Again leave me ideas for what you want to see and maybe ideas of what atticus' back story could be...I hope you all enjoyed this part!
