**EDITING** The longer you live like animals, the easier you turn into them. Being from the underground you knew what it was like to be desperate and caged, to know there was a line, invisible or not, that you couldn't cross. Your entire life, you strove to be free of the underground, to live among those on the surface, to feel normal again. But with your scarred past and obscure future, that dream slipped further away with each passing day. By some turn of fate, you clawed your way through the underground streets, learned how to fight-and in turn, how to win. But fighting your way to the top came with a price, and one the scouts would soon come to collect. Now, fighting for a new team in a new world, you're given a fresh start, a way to move forward from the horrible labs and abandonment of the forgotten city. Again you're forced to start from the bottom, slowly chipping your way back to the top, fighting between confronting your past and looking towards the future. In the process, you find yourself coming face to face with a stoic figure who comes with a mysterious yet familiar past. As you learn to trust each other, you find your own impenetrable façade crumbling like the walls, all at the fault of one man. {Book One} ***Quick Disclaimer-I own only my own characters and plot line in this story, and have no ownership over AOT or its characters***
