 Born in India, Gypsy was locked alone in a room for most of her first thirteen years, usually strapped to a child's toilet or bound in a crib with her arms and legs immobilized. During this time she was almost never spoken to, and as a result did not acquire a first language. Her parents would brutally beat her on a daily basis. One faithful day luck seemed to be on gypsy's side and after her daily beating her parents forgot to tie her up again.  Although she wasnt very bright she was smart enough to know that staying there would mean death , therefore she fled under the cover of night careful not to wake her parents. She kept near the wall and was easily frightened by anything that moved or made noise. She didnt know what anything was it was a scary experience. After such a long night she found slumber in the slumps of india. 

Morning soon came and smells from all the food shops invaded gypsy's nose. Thirteen years of being barely ever fed dropped onto her all at once and before she even knew it she was infront of a food stand. Everyone shoving and pushing around her made her super scared so she quickly grabbed an apple and fled . She always kept near to the shadows and attacked anything that got too close to her. Soon news was spread of the feral child in the shadows. Children were warned to stay away and shop keepers kept an eye out for her. The thirteen year old girl soon came to a life of theft and pick-pocketing . She spent three entire years pulling all this off until one unfortunate day , maybe her luck had run out.....or had it ?
