A/N Kitty is a sad baby, Kat is 17, Anna is 18, Anne is also 18, Parr is 17, Aragon is 22, and Jane is 27. SOME OF THIS IS HISTORICALLY ACCURATE SOME OF IT IS NOT IF SOME QUESTION I HAD WERENT ANSWERED THAN I FILLED IN THE BLANKS. 

Kitty's p.o.v

I wake up in a bed, how am I alive. All I can remember is the sword coming down on my neck and then black, but now I'm sitting in a bed very much alive. I hear a door click somewhere, and I stand up and move towards the door. Suddenly I hear shouting, oh god. I hate loud noises, I start to feel tears streaming down my face, I try to catch myself as I slide down the wall, my breathing becoming quick and shallow.

Take a deep breath, focus on keeping your breathing steady. My eyes scan the pink room, I see a desk, a bed, a bathroom and a closet. I move towards the desk, there's a note:

Dear Katherine,

This is your new home, the others are in their rooms or downstairs. I know you went through a lot so I don't expect you to open up but you will have to go to school and talk to someone. There is a scar on your neck if it is bleeding it means you have not accepted what happened to you, either way there are three chokers next to this note they should cover that up. Have fun living in 2020.

I look to the side of the note and sure enough there are three necklaces each one with it's own design. Who are the 'others,' well only one way to find out. I open the door and walk out, I start to hear muffled voices as I walk down the stairs only to find five girls.

"H-hi, whats up?" I say, trying to get their attention, it works, they all look towards me, I recognize one face, Anne of Cleves, I hate her, I thought she was my friend but she didn't even say goodbye, she didn't listen when I needed her, she stayed silent. I look at her, I feel tears start to well up, until I saw one more familiar face although I don't know why.

"Hi, you must be Katherine." Says the blonde, while putting a hand on my shoulder, I flinch at the contact and take a step back.

"Call me Kat," I whisper, a little nervous.

"I'm Anne, you might not remember me but I met you when you were a baby." The familiar face says.

"I'm Jane," the blonde says.

"I am Catherine but you can call me Lina."

"I'm Cathy," the girl in the corner says, she is really pretty her eyes have a kind of passion I've never seen.

"Kat you remember me, right, but instead of Anne call me Anna." I nod, trying to keep a blank face but I can't help my gaze from hardening. Soon I feel the tears pour down my cheeks as I remember the moment I realized I would never have a friend, damn them I don't need anyone, I'm strong. 

I feel a hand on my back, that's when I lose it, I kick my legs out and try to move out of reach, "STOP, PLEASE STOP." I scream, I feel blood start to ooze from my neck, and I stop in panic then dart up the stairs, into my room and onto my bed.

After twenty minutes I hear a knock, "Hey, it's Anna." I start to cry more.

"Go away please, you are the last person I wanna talk to." I say, my voice making the words that are supposed to be bitter sound pleading.

There's another knock, "It's Anne, I'm your cousin, I wanna be there for you because I wasn't before." I sigh, knowing what the letter said, knowing that if what she said is true she maybe the only person who loves me.

"Come in."

She opens the door and sits on my bed a few feet away from me, "Listen, you were asleep for an extra day for some weird reason, but we have some rules, no looking up other people's pasts without their permission, and we are splitting up the chores so that they change every week." I look at her, "But that's beside the point, whats wrong?"

"It's nothing just some shit with Cleves."

"Okay if that's the case," she says, not believing me for one second, "Also don't let Jane hear you swear, oh two months until school starts." Anne says as she walks out the door

One week later

I had gotten closer to Jane and Anne, they became my family, although despite Anna trying to get closer, I wouldn't no I couldn't trust her. Anne has become a sister to me and often when we wake up with nightmares we comfort each other and Jane she's like our mother, we are an amazing family.

Cathy is beautiful, I don't know how I feel about her but she's nice and will always check on me when I'm sad, maybe I love her but I've never loved someone before. Her eyes are a deep brown that I could get lost in and her smile lights up a room. Holy crap I have a crush on Cathy.

"Hey Kat, I know we don't have the best relationship but I wanna know why, did I do something?" Anna asks as she opens the door, causing me to jump.

"Well you kinda left me when I needed a friend, and you knew enough to help me, couldn't you have tried to help or talk, I WAS GONNA DIE FOR FUCKS SAKE." I yell the last part aware that Jane is in the house.

"I'm sorry, but I promise I will never leave you again, please let me be your friend, please."

"Fine, but I still don't trust you." I say, I miss her.

"GUYS COME DOWNSTAIRS, JANE WANTS TO TALK ABOUT HER LIFE!" Anne yells, I smile, nice a way out of this conversation. I walk down the stairs, Anna following close behind, as I make my way into the room I see Jane who looks nervous.

"Hey, Janey you okay?" I ask, already knowing what she will say.

"I'm fine, I should just get this over with." She pauses, "Henry had taken a liking to me after Anne's second miscarriage, it wasn't my looks it was the fact that I would stand by and let him do what he wanted, anyway when I was pregnant I so excited to see his first words his first steps, sadly I wasn't there for any of that. I am grateful for Kat who has become a daughter to me." I look up overwhelmed, no one ever cared about me, not even my family. I smile she is the first to make me feel truly loved.
