Burn Me to Butterflies

Prologue

~*13 Years Ago*~

I will never forget that day. The day Missouri and a few other states became District M, for Market. And Missouri became Sector A, for Agriculture.

My parents stood by me as I walked towards the house. My mother's fair, auburn hair was glowing in the Missouri sunlight and my father's green eyes sparkled with happiness. I was young, around 5 or so. Thomas says I couldn't possibly remember as I was so young. But I remember it well. The war had been going on for years before I was born and was still going on. But it hadn't yet reached Missouri. Anyway, as I was saying, we were on our way home when the sound of a large aircraft grew close.

"Take Krissy to the house, Maranda! Now!" My father yelled to my mother. She picked me up and sprinted to the house, barging in when we reached the door. Thomas shot up from his chair when he saw us.

"Thomas. You and your sister stay inside, okay?" My brother gave a nod and my mother put me down. "Sweet little Krissy..."

"Momma don't cry. It will be ok." I say to her, watching tears fall from her beautiful blue eyes. She smiled and took the necklace from around her neck and put it around my own.

"I love you, Kristina. You too, Thomas." This time, tears fell from my eyes. Suddenly, men in full white suits barged in and grabbed her. Two more men came in and pinned my brother and I to the ground. I let out a yelp of pain. The light in the room from the outside became ten times brighter.

"Momma!" When my vision focused, I saw my mother and father kneeling before a man in a black business suit. He said something to the men around him and their guns raised to my parents.

"Momma! Papa! No!"
BAM! The crimson blood of my parents pooled the street in front of our house. I struggled to get free of the man holding me down. I was thrashing, screaming. Thomas kept telling me to stop fighting. Suddenly, the world went black.

I made a promise that day.
Mad Man, I will find you.
And in the name of this country,
In the name of everyone you destroyed,
In the name of my parents, Maranda and Jonathan Lotus,
I, Kristina Taylor Lotus, will kill you.
