When Alexa was born, her Father was killed in a bar fight where his friend shot him in the head causing him to die almost instantly. 
Alexa's mother was left as a single mum to newborn baby Alexa and her 4 older brothers between the ages of 18 and 10.
Her mother struggled feeding 5 kids so she and Alexa's eldest brother started selling drugs and got arrested for possession.
Her Mother and brother made a lot of enemies because the drugs they sold were stolen from other crime families so they targeted Alexa and her brothers and killed all 3 of her other brothers just 2 days later. 
Archie, Alexa's 10 year old brother hid her under a blanket under their parents old bed so she was never found until a neighbour came round an hour later and heard Alexa's cries. 
Alexa was given a foster home until her mother would get out but then her mother died by being stabbed in the eye by her cellmate. Her brother escaped and kidnapped Alexa but in the process, he killed her foster parents and one of her foster sisters by setting their house on fire. He was found a day later and Alexa was returned to the orphanage and hasn't been lucky enough to be fostered or adopted since then. 
That was until Melissa and Chris stumbled along.

Gangs. A girl. War. Fights. Love. Hate. Death. All words to describe the city of Athens. The most dangerous city in the country. But only those who have been there know that. Athens is not a place for tourism. Not many people who visit, make it out alive. Vicki, 16, has finally found a home willing to adopt her after 6 years of jumping from home to home, family to family, foster to foster. Some were good. Some bad. Some could, would, and did the unthinkable. But now she didnt have to deal with that. But she had no idea of the secrets that the friendly "welcome to Athens" sign hides. Or did she? She wasn't ever supposed to end up in the system. Or end up on her meds. She remembered nothing of her life before 10 years old. She had always knew something was missing, but this? This was more than she could ever handle remembering. **** "Wow, I thought it was just you guys and Artemis." "There's a whole world of gangs. There are gangs in every country, some even I don't know as a leader." "Is it tough being a leader?" "Some times. Especially when I have to deal with loss. But I also give some opportunities to people who need it. I've even given a homeless man a small job and it set him up for life." "That's cool. Are the Zusians tyrants. I mean were they?" something about the name doesn't shake me. It's stuck in my head for some reason. "They more are now. There's speculation that a kid got out safe and will one day take back the leadership, but after seeing the wreckage first hand, I don't think anybody left it alive," he says it. But he doesn't sound like he even believes himself. "Did the kid get out? Is it even slightly possible?" "Between you and me. I helped her escape. I know she got out. But I don't think she lived long after we lost contact. Why do you ask?" "Something about the name... It is vaguely familiar but I don't know why. Maybe it's just my meds." "You might have just heard it before." *** Cover by @_scintillas

I wrote it as just something to share with my friends and then other people started reading. So I decided to work harder. The most recent chapters are the best. Okay continue "Everything is a Work in progress, be patient with those who are creating the work" "Adopted By Brendon Urie" I can't believe that Brendon Urie from Panic! Ar The Disco was here. 'Stop it Nicole' I say to myself 'Don't get your hopes up'. Wait, why was he alone? Where's Sarah? • • "You guys I'm sorry about that. But she did exceptionally well consider that I just sprung this on her 20 minutes ago. And she did great out here seeing as she had just woken up from passing out. Haha. We are going to see a doctor after this though and make sure she's okay. How about I do a couple more songs for you. Just two though. I do need to take her to the doctor." That's all I hear before I fall asleep. • • "You know you start school soon right?" he says like he's trying to sound like a father. "You're actually gonna make me go to that hell hole?" "Watch your language. Your only 14 and yes. I'm making you go to that hell hole." • • "Why are you the calm one? Most kids would be freaking out." "I need to stay strong for mine and your mentality. The last thing either one of us needs is to freak out completely." • • A story about a girl. That gets adopted by a famous singer. And her world is turned upside down. Don't miss out on this book about her journey through high school. ⚠️Rated Mature For Suicidal Actions and Depressing Content⚠️

"You should care, Dylan. You would still be living in the back of a car, stealing from Seven Eleven! Is that what you want?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The "Four Musketeers." That's what they called them. If they weren't all together they were two on two. And they give zero fucks about life. The Adopted one The Bad boy The Player The Best friend Dylan is like most troubled girls. She doesn't care about her grades, she skips school, hangs with the wrong crowds, and hates her parents. But of course there's a reason for all of this. Dylan is adopted. Dylan has always struggled with being adopted and she tends to fight everything in life. Many bad memories cause her to be the way she is. She desperately wants to forget her past, including some bad things she experienced, but the memories stay stuck in her mind. Dylan has three best friends who help her get by. The only three people she 100% trust and doesn't like to. They all have their own problems and lies they tell, but they help each other through it all. Especially her boyfriend Vince, who would do absolutely anything for her. He would die a thousand times over before anyone hurt Dylan. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Dylan's not just my whole life, she makes my life whole. Some days she's the only reason I get out of bed. Without her in my life there is no point in living. She's like the air I breathe. Without her I can't live. She's my best friend and I will love her to the day I die." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This summer Dylan gets the opportunity to do what every guidance counselor has claimed she's always wanted to do . . . split up her family. Will she realize splitting up her family won't help anything? Or will she just not care? After all she was abandoned once.
