Elias Ramirez was taken from his family at only a few months old by his mother. His life was one of chaos, neglect, abuse, and confusion. He never understood why his parents didn't care about him like all other parents do. Why he would see parents hugging their kids, and taking them on trips. His own parents never did that, they never talked to him unless they wanted something from him, they never kissed him on the cheek or kissed his scraped knees. He doesn't understand what the word love meant. Growing up in an abusive home for his entire life taught him to only rely on himself, and to not let anyone push him around.

Never be tied down to that identity for all the secrets it carries. Will he be so lucky? Or will he get caught. Oh did I forget to mention he has 6 older brothers actively trying to find him?
