NOTE: This story will only make sense if you have read Hard Time, A Life Beyond, and a Life Deserved. It is somewhat of a prequel to the series. What was life like before Stef, Lena and Callie all entered Chowchilla for manslaughter? In this story we will follow their lives prior to being locked up, see how Stef rose to power in prison, how Lena survived and killed her abusive husband, how Callie narrowly escaped her mother's boyfriend, and ultimately coming together in jail and becoming a family. NOTE: I do not own the Fosters. However, I do own this story along with all the original characters I've created and storylines. Please do not copy or you will be reported. Thank you.
