(N/A I have no clue on pregnancy so sorry if I'm in the wrong, and I'm starting to edit some chapters)

My mother, Renee, suddenly stood up with me in her arms, yelling for my father, Charlie, to come downstairs. he came in a rush to see what his pregnant wife needed.

"What is it Renee?" he asks out of breath.

"I think my water broke."

<~>

A few months after Isabella was born I was two years old. Mom and dad were fighting again downstairs, while Bella and I were suppose to be sleeping. I heard footsteps coming up the stairs, so I pretended I was asleep.

The door quickly opened making Bella cry of fright, an a soft 'sh' came from someone.

"I'm taking Bella and Alexa as well Charlie. Just let us go, let me go Charlie." Moms' voice speaks quietly but firmly walking to my bed.

"Why can't I keep one Renee? One child is hard enough, but two? Please I want to help you. You take Bella and I'll keep Alexa, is it not enough?" Father's voice rings and my mother's feet stop moving.

She stays quiet for a little before answering; "Okay... fine you can keep Alexa. But if I hear that something is wrong with her she comes to me."

Dad must have nodded because mom moved back to Bella's crib.
<~>
Two years after they left, dad always tries to cook for us, but always over cooks it, so we head to the diner. Once we were seated dad asked to me; "Alexa, do you want to join the army when you're older?"

I immediately look at his eyes. "Of cworse I dowa! I wanna prwtect evwyone!!" (N/A-She is 4, still working on speaking) I exclaimed loudly, putting my hands in the air.

He chuckled lightly in amusement from my outburst. The waitress, Cora, came to our table to give us our usual order.

<~>

Six years after they left, my father knocks on my door then came in.

"I sent the registration to join the army last year and they replied saying that they will be here to pick you up at noon on your birthday. So... you should start packing up kid." Dad said with sadness clearly in his voice.

I nodded with tears going down my cheeks.

At noon two males knocked on the door asking if this was the Swan residents. One with chocolate brown hair and the other has amber hair. Dad invited them in, saying that I'm finishing up packing.

When I rounded the wall from the stairs, I saw two well built males looking at me.

The one with chocolate brown hair speaks first. "Hello, you are Alexandra. Correct?" His voice was deep, but yet soft.

I nodded my head looking back and forth between both men.

"The name is Carter, and his is Jack. I hope that you have everything, otherwise we are going to be late for our flight to the base." The amber haired man, Carter, said impatiently.

I nodded my head again then face my dad.

"Hope to see you later dad. And do mail me if Bella comes I want to say hi to her. And if mom has not mentioned me to Bella, please do." I said, my voice just above a whisper at the end.
"Of course kid."

While we were travelling to the base I fell asleep.

<^_^>

The last time I saw him was seven years ago. A little while ago I was to by Sargent Shan that I could take a leave for a year. I, of course, accepted wanting to see my baby sister once again.

With my body tense and straight, I walked to Sargent Shan. "Sir!" I said clicking my feet together with my right hand saluting to him, I can to say goodbye."

Sargent Shan looked at me with sad eyes and gave me a sad smile; "goodbye, Captain Swan."
