Chapter 2: Family past.

The day I was born was the worst day for everyone in my family, the doctors weren't sure off what was going on or why my mother was hurting so badly, she held onto the bed for her dear life as blood spilled out, everyone believed I was dead, there was no chance off me being alive, at least not now. Everything seem surreal, but there I was, 24 hours later, lying in my mother's arm, healthy. No one could believe that either of us had survived. Sure the doctors didn't have the best off supplies considering we lived in dirt or stone houses, no technology at all, we barley had supplies to stitch up a person after they were injured. To live on our earth is defiantly something else now, for maybe 300 years ago there were a nuclear war and the whole world was being bombed, and no one were left alive. Only a 100 years later the earth started to live little by little and then animals started developing, but differently, and there were actually some humans who manage to live, but they lived underground in a bunker, preventing them from blowing up and dying from radiation.

Now here I where, a small tiny girl, with just little off hair on my head and green eyes, as green as the emeralds found in the deepest of caves. I was nothing much off a person then, but what my future had for me, was something way more, something more dangerous and frustrating. I was brought home a week after I was born. The first days were considered off eat, play sleep and then repeat it all over again. Only 4 weeks later my mom started to be more and more tired, I didn't understand anything and I craved the same off attention from my mother everyday, but that was reduced until 5 weeks, she sadly passed away. the doctors weren't sure of what caused her death , but my dad believed it was all the stress off me craving attention from her everyday. But my brother tried to convince our father otherwise, he refused to believe it, and he refused to loose me because our father believed it was my fault.

For weeks it were only me and my brother, my brother had sent my father away and told him

" Don't show up unless your ready to be the father Lexa needs " the words must have hurt my father very much considering he left with nothing but himself. My whole life has been both ups and downs, sometimes we wouldn't barely have enough money to buy a bread and sometimes we would be left without nothing. My brother got someone to watch out for me when he want out to hunt for food for us. He usually came home with only a pigeon or a squirrel, he even sometimes refused to eat because he was more about my survival than his own. I didn't understand it at the time, I were only 3 years and exploring the world. One day we came to the point where we didn't have anything, only our house, maybe two sets off clothings and river water, I was 4 and still growing, my brother were 17 and I realised there were change in him, he seemed more sad and down all the time. I would always try and cheer him up, but he'd only push me away. I didn't think much about it and I didn't do anything about it, I believe that I were the cause off his pain and off our suffering. Only 4 years and I knew more than what I should know about. My brother had learned me everything I need to learn to survive on my own even though I was 4, but he told me that " it is not the strongest of us that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change". That I never understood, but I knew it was wise words and my brother were and had always been the wisest in our family.

My father never came back, we don't know what happens to him, but one day we got the messages that he'd been executed for treasons. For me it didn't hurt much, but for my brother it seemed to tear him apart. I believe that he'd been waiting for our father to return, I think that he's hope for him to come back never left, but as it turns out he were wrong. And from that day on he became more protective over me, he refused me to go outside of the fence, I was only available to stay in the house. He told me "Remember always Lexa, safety first, is safety always, don't ever forget that."
