hi I'm Anastasia and I was born to the most loving parents ever mom was a lawyer and we'd always play games where she pretended I was her lawyer and she was my client I find you guilty of drinking my cereal I sentenced you to 100 years in prison oh please have pity on me judge but then she suddenly left me and Dad when I was five and we never heard from her again I had to grow up with a dad who was obsessed with computers and electronics Dad could fix just about anything where does this go right here Daddy he taught me everything I knew about Electronics in no time I started to mess with them like they were nothing in fact I wanted to be an engineer just like him but then one day while we were busy with a robot project we suddenly heard a loud machine noise coming from outside when we ran out to check what it was we were surprised to find two bulldozers staring at us sir this property belongs to Kint Inc we are under instruction to demolish it what tell Mr Kent that he can kick rocks sir please move out of the way you have 5 seconds and we won't ask again but Dad and I were not about to let these crazy people just tear down our building so we linked arms together and stood in front of the store courageously the drivers ignored us and drove their bulldozers towards us without any care for our safety in the world dad and I had to jump out of the way after we lost our store dad fell ill and went into a long coma I stayed by his bedside every day holding his hand and hoping for the best everything is going to be okay Dad I promised to get payback on Harry Kent for doing this to you I didn't know how I was going to do it but it was going to happen I swore it after dad's coma I had to move in with my mom's wealthy cousin Aunt Jenna dad had no relatives so she was my only option what are those Aunt Jenna was an upper class woman who was always cold towards me she hated my passion for electronics and treated my projects like trash Oh those are my robot models and dad and I used it security please dispose of that trash my models were like my life I couldn't let that happen please don't throw them away an Jenna I'll keep them out of your way I promise I looked at her face praying she'd agree fine you can keep your trash but make sure I never see them I sighed relieved aun gave me the worst room in the house the basement while she and her daughter Geraldine lived like royalty in the biggest rooms Geraldine was the spitting image of her mother mean spoiled and evil once while she was sunbathing by the pool I was passing by with a glass of juice and tripped over her foot which was in the way she went berserk you clumsy o you ruined my bikini I'm so sorry but your shoes were in the way that's no excuse you fool I'm actually a very smart fool if you want to know and then later that day while I was fixing some robot Parts in my room the she devil walked in and dumped a bucket of water on my robot oops I thought that was trash just like everything else in this basement I saw red and immediately pounced on her Aunt Jenna heard us fighting and showed up she pushed me away from her daughter how dare you come into my house and attack my child I tried to explain but she wouldn't even listen it's those useless robots isn't it I'll seize them all no please they were the only things I have left of my dad you should have thought of that before you attacked my daughter I felt like my whole world had fallen apart after what Aunt Jenna did I wish Dad could wake up and rescue me from this house of wickedness after nearly a month of staying with her aunt enrolled me in the same private high school as Geraldine and I settled in nicely with a time I became the top student in my class an a Asia an A+ again you should teach your cousin and maybe her D could turn into a b Geraldine burned with jealousy but that didn't bother me she might be the queen in her house but when it came to the books I Ruled Supreme a few weeks before summer break my school planned a basketball game the physics club which I was in charge of were helping out with the electrical system in the gym as the cheerleaders practiced their routine I looked at Geraldine as she practiced she looked so perfect if only she was doesn't mean all the time what are you staring at weirdo your makeup makes you look like Ursula her royal meanness stormed up to my ladder and shook it Knocking me to the ground how dare you you monster before she could charge at me a nerdy kid wobbled into the gym and tripped over some wires making the lights go off I could hear him rumaging around the wires for 20 minutes yet the lights weren't coming on I'm sorry I didn't mean to I'm new here I found my way in the Darkness towards him hey let me help you might shock yourself if you keep messing around with the wires with my understanding of electronics I connected a few wires in the dark and the lights returned when the lights came on I saw the boy's face clearly and oh boy he was handsome wow how did you do that it's just a fuse you displaced it when you were going over the wires that's impressive my father owns a robotics company I could recommend you for an internship whenever there's an opening wait a minute his father who's your father I asked out of curiosity uh Harry Kent by the look on your face I'm guessing you already know him oh I did more than know him but Terren didn't need to know to what extent yeah sure he's the super popular billionaire right yeah I'm Terrence by the way what's your name I'm um Anastasia I hope we see more of each other Anastasia hopefully I'm not tripping over more wires by then when Terren left Gerald deine suddenly appeared in front of me throwing yourself with the billionaire son is a new Lo for you Anastasia she sounded jealous it must be hard knowing he talked to me and not you she fed but I ignored her and returned to my work the next morning I found Terren in the library and a plan suddenly struck in my head what if I got close to him and used him to exact my revenge on his father I put my plan in place and did the classic girl trips close to boy move he caught me are you all right sorry I didn't see you up close his eyes looked kind but I didn't let that trick me hey you're the girl from earlier please let me treat you to lunch to show my gratitude and just like that he had taken my bait sure thing you owe me one anyways after school I met Terren at a nearby pizza shop which wasn't where I expected a billionaire son to eat I assumed he'd go somewhere flash year with gold as meal option or whatever billionaires ate this is now my favorite pizza place really I didn't believe him he was putting on the charismatic attitude to fool me huh too bad I was too smart to fall for it suddenly he lifted his hand towards my face what are you doing relax you have a pizza stain on your cheek oh thanks you're so sweet as Terren cleaned the stain on my cheek I felt a warm fuzzy s ation in my tummy his hand lingered on my cheek before he removed it with a sweet smile Focus Anastasia thank you I appreciate the lunch it's cool so where did you learn your impressive wiring skill from my father Clinton hail as I said his name I looked at terence's face for a reaction and was disappointed to find none after our lunch I found out he wrote a motorcycle what kind of a billionaire Sun wrode a motorcycle I began to spend a lot of time with Terrence my guard was still up around him no matter what I never wanted to forget that he was the son of ultra billionaire Harry Kent Terren was very nice and his sweet gestures made it difficult for me to stick to my plan on my 16th birthday when I thought no one remembered he got me a pretty necklace here let me help you as he placed the necklace around my neck his fingers touched me and I felt Goosebumps after he finished he stared at my neck for the longest time you have the pretty his neck thank you one day Gerald Dean discovered teren hugging me and envious of our friendship she ratted me out to her mom Aunt Jenna was Furious of course you'd be like your mom going after guys with money I see that was the first time Aunt mentioned my mother I tried to ask a few more questions about Mom out of curiosity but she shot them down and focused on scolding me instead your dad would be so ashamed of you if he was awake hanging out with the son of the man who ruined his life you can do better I want you to stop seeing him aunt had a point but I was very focused on seeing my plan through even if it meant sneaking around her to see Terrence my dad deserved Justice and I wanted to bring it to him no matter the risk I told Terrence that my aunt wasn't fond of our friendship and we agreed to begin meeting in secret on one of the days I was supposed to meet him at our spot in the pizza shop I found him getting yelled at by his father in a corner instead I immediately hid behind an opposite wall and peaked out I've warned you to stop coming to this trashy shop you have a company to manage boy act like it stop making me ashamed of you all the time teren suddenly turned around and noticed me his eyes looked sad I quickly stopped peeking and returned to my Hiding position you will show up at tonight's fundraiser like a proper Kint I don't want to see your silly bike anywhere around the building understood yes dad as soon as terrence's dad left he approached my hiding spot a I um I'm sorry I didn't mean to Eevees drop it's fine so what happened back there my dad wants me to take over his company but I don't want to why not I don't like robotics I want to be a doctor instead my mom died of cancer when I was little I want to help people like her this wasn't the evil Terrance I had conjured up in my head I felt bad about using him and was already thinking of an alternative to my plan when he said I can't can't go to the fundraiser alone tonight I need you by my side Anastasia close to Harry Kent's mansion that was a super tempting offer I could not refuse I didn't want to keep using Terren but I promised myself this would be the last time that night when everyone was asleep I sneaked out of my window and ran up to the road where Terren was waiting for me beside a limousine I wore a simple gown and he wore a sophisticated suit and looked amazingly hot you you look so beautiful he held the door open like a perfect gentleman and I blushed as I climbed into the car thank you we arrived at the fundraiser and seeing all the fancy people in their fancy clothes made me feel inferior Terrence didn't care you're the prettiest girl in this room Terren was called up onto the stage a few minutes after we arrived and he had to leave my side I took advantage of the opportunity to Snoop around the Mansion for dirt on his father during my search I came across a door that seemed like Harry Kent's office and went in I started searching the office for whatever I could find and bingo that's when I saw it a folder tagged confidential right inside his drawers I suddenly heard his footsteps approaching but it was too late for me to hide so I stuffed the folder inside my gown Anastasia mom it was my mom but our reunion was cut short when we heard the sound of someone else's footsteps jump out of the window quick there's a ladder under it that plumber forgot this afternoon I I was so angry at her after she left dad and me she never once cared to check on us why would I listen to you you left me for years I'll explain everything later please just listen to me go out now I decided to listen to her and quickly made my way through the window and ran back to aunt's house as soon as I got home I called Terrence to let him know that I left the party early then I began to go through the contents of the confidential folder what I found shocked me my father used to own the company with Harry k before Harry accused him of Fraud and kicked him out dad made me a major shareholder in Kent Inc during his tenure there this meant I was worth $1 billion but Harry wanted to take it all I wondered what mom had to do with all this early the next morning I was awakened by a phone call from an unknown number hello Anastasia it's Mom listen I don't have much time come over to the abandoned trailer park as soon as you can mom sounded like she was in a haste So I dressed up and hurried out to meet her as soon as I got to the trailer park mom's car drove up to me and I got in to my surprise she hugged me oh I've missed you so much baby I was so shocked I'm sorry for everything but not reaching out to you guys was the only way to keep you safe how when your dad lost his job all those years ago we hatched a plan I was supposed to get closer to Harry Kent and save our family's Legacy in the company keep your enemies closer he always said is that why you couldn't spare some time to even check how I was doing if I did Harry would know where you were you're a major shareholder in his company he wants you out of the way I had to lie and say I had dumped you somewhere in the Sahara Desert everything she told me added up except for one thing ant what about ant and Geraldine I pay your auntie thousands of dollars each month to look after you and keep your present safe which was working fine until Harry decided to relocate her wow and that selfish woman had the guts to act like she did everything for me for free I told mom how mean and Geraldine had been to me and she was angry that Jezebel I'll teach her a lesson for messing with my daughter for now honey stay safe I have a plan and it's nearly ready mom and I kept in touch through secret phone calls I told her everything about my relationship with Terrence and she encouraged me to be honest with him I'm in love with Terren if he knows I was using him he would kill me he's a nice kid he wouldn't and while I was on the phone call Gerald Dean suddenly appeared complete a recording of my phone call to Mom I wonder what Terren will do once he finds out you're using him I tried to snatch the phone from her and accidentally pressed the send button which sent the recording to Terren uh-oh Terren listened to my recording and started to avoid me everywhere he wouldn't even let me speak to him I was devastated but Mom encouraged me to focus on the plan on the day Harry Kent was to meet the board of directors to remove my shareholder status I showed up up to the meeting no one has seen hail's daughter for years who are you Anastasia hail he looked like he was about to explode prove it Mom suddenly entered the office she doesn't have to she's my daughter and I have proof of everything you've done to her and my husband for years as soon as his crimes came into light Harry was dismissed from the company I retained my shareholder status the next day Mom took me out of Aunt Jenna's and I moved in with her you and your child will no longer receive a penny from me the look on their faces made me so happy years later I completed high school and college I kept trying to reach out to Terrence but it was futile mom and I paid regular visits to Dad hey Dad we miss you so much has happened mom rescued me from the bad people and I can now manage Kent Inc can you believe all of your work is finally getting recognition while I was talking to Dad he suddenly moved his hand dad mom call the doctor quick when Mom came back with the doctor dad was already opening his eyes and when the doctor opened his mouth it was then that I looked at him wow this is a miracle it looks like he's out of the coma Terence you are my dad's doctor Anastasia oh I'm glad to see you Terrence I've missed you so much I'm so sorry for everything it's fine I've never stopped loving you in spite of what's happened it's why I transferred here to help your dad I was overwhelmed with emotions and suddenly kissed him this was the best day ever hi I'm Amelia I've always felt like the luckiest girl in the world I had the best parents who were both doctors in school I was a top achiever and I did what I loved best basketball I was the star in my team but apart from all the greatness I had in life there was one flaw I was born with a condition called honia meaning I didn't have nails on all my fingers as a child I thought it was cool because my parents said so but soon noticed that other kids treated me funny because of it hey what happened to your hand it's always been that way super cool right all of them ran away like I had a disease when I figured out that my hand actually freaked other kids out I refused to leave the house why can't you just heal my hand so I can be like other kids everyone treats me like an alien it's not something we can reverse dear it's your own perfect flaw when my parents saw that I wasn't ready to reason with them they bought me a pack of fancy gloves to wear at school your hands are awesome but if this makes you more comfortable it does thanks for me as long as no one saw my hands my life was perfect then the new neighbors arrived I was throwing out the trash from the house one day when I saw them moving into the house next to us I went over to help them and hopefully make new friends hi I'm Amelia you're an nextdoor neighbor hi I'm Crystal and that's my mom Crystal seemed really friendly unlike her mother who looked like a hissing snake Crystal quit the chitchat and move those things let me help I went to pick up a box from the van but the woman grabbed my hand if you know what is good for you you'll stay away from us I I just want to help or maybe you just want to meet Jackie Jackie is that your child too yes my favorite child Jackie Jackie when I saw Jackie I died and Resurrected Jackie was nearly a 4et Hound he looked like he wanted to eat me I ran home screaming for my mom it's like been going later in the evening when I told my mom about the woman next door mom was Furious I could definitely sue her for the threat maybe she was just playing how can you say that in fact I'm going to give her a piece of my mind right now how about we bake a pie instead and give it to her as a welcome present maybe she just wasn't in a good mood dad supported the idea and since mom always listened to him the next morning morning Mom and I baked a pie and carried it over to the neighbors Crystal was the one who opened the door I'm so sorry for what my mom did to you that day she's a bit crazy that's okay is she home the porch suddenly felt icy when Crystal's mom appeared at the doorway how may I help you hi I'm Amelia's mom we baked this pie to welcome you and your beautiful daughter to my relief the woman's Stony expression melted off oh really this is so sweet I'm Mrs Freeze she took the pie and we happily turned to go and that's when I felt something warm and soft hit the back of my head ow mom and I turned to see that Mrs Freeze had just thrown the pie at me stay away from my property and keep your stupid pie she slammed the door shut and I had to hold my back from attacking the woman you hurt her I don't want you anywhere near her I swore to stay away from the new neighbor but fate had other plans at school some days later our School's principal announced that we had a new basketball coach but but when it was time for our new coach to arrive the lollipop I was sucking on dropped to the floor at the sight of Mrs Freeze coming into the basketball court hello everyone glad to be your new coach please treat me well she didn't even act as if she recognized me Emily a girl in my team who was very jealous of My Success was soon tripping over her feet to impress her welcome ma'am at least no one will be more favored now what do you mean the former coach treated Amelia here especially that's not true who asked your permission to speak off the court now what or would you prefer to be dropped off the team upset I went to the bleachers and everyone else started playing my team won but I was so Furious that I didn't get to play so I decided to confront Mrs Freeze and set things straight with her but when I got to her office door Mrs Freeze was crying over a baby picture I was so stunned I turned around and bumped right into Emily came to bribe your way onto Mrs frieza's good side can you drop it I don't need to bribe any coach I'm a natural well we have Scouts coming in for our next game this weekend we will see who is awesome then glove tag being picked by the scouts was a big step towards my dream of playing in the WNBA even though I was confident of my skills I practiced more so I could impress them but something happened that risked everything I had been working hard for the morning before the game I went to the bathroom to wash up but slipped and fell I sprained my right hand but what hurt the most was what my parents said next well this means no game for you today Dad this is a golden opportunity to be a big sports star and how are you supposed to do that with one arm besides I doubt that witch you have as a coach would let you play at all there was no winning the argument with them so the moment they left for work I dressed up and hurried to the city's basketball court I was already late they were just about to start when I arrived is that bandage just done to get the scouts pity she's not faking I know a broken arm when I see it I worked hard for this ma'am a broken arm won't stop me I expected Mrs Freeze to get mad and order me out of the game but to my shock she asked for a handshake you're either very stupid or very brave either way I'm beginning to like your guts reminds me of my much younger self just as I was about to accept the handshake I noticed that Mrs Freeze had a hype on AIA too hey your hand it's just like what never seen a nailess hand before actually I take your position game time and just like that she went back to being cold despite my one-h handedness I scored more points than any other player it was a pain but it was worth it because the scouts signed me up for a national game next year Emily was Green With Envy later that night I was struggling with how I could tell my parents about the offer I had gotten when Dad burst in angrily and threw some flowers at me Mrs Freeze gave me this at the porch to give you for playing so well today you snuck out to the game and when did you become all chummy for Mrs crazy to give you flowers I felt the color drain off my face face as both parents glared at me have you have you taken off your glove since you met her no why never mind for your Disobedience we are moving out of this neighborhood tomorrow and you will change schools like pack our bags and go to a new house kind of leave exactly honey that's too sudden the next week dad's behavior and decision was completely odd but it was just the beginning after that day he began to act super paranoid he became strict about dropping me off at school and picking me up and if I had to go anywhere dad would tag along as if he felt someone would steal me away his actions made me super suspicious so I decided to investigate Mrs Freeze one night I crept out of the house to hers and knocked on Crystal's window hey Chris can I see you for a sec she came out and we sat on the grass I just wanted to ask about your mother and send her my thanks for the flowers she got you flowers seems like you're beginning to grow her my mom never gets flowers for anyone so she's always like super cold to people to you hey don't blame her she's living up to our family name freeze being cold should be our family Mark strangers anyway she says a stranger stole something very important from her so she doesn't trust anyone we talked some more and Crystal revealed she was being homeschooled because of a health condition that made her weak I have to go now Mom will freak if she sees me out here just as she was about to go she suddenly had a bad cough and her mom appeared looking angry again you what did you do to Crystal nothing ma'am we were just talking in the middle of the night I knew you could be a bad influence don't ever come near my daughter again I watched speechlessly as Mrs Freeze went inside with Crystal I couldn't believe she was the same person that gave me flowers despite her warning I planed to go check on crystal in the morning but the next morning I woke up to Dad and Mom packing things into a truck what are you guys doing I told you we're moving this week I thought you were just kidding kidding we're leaving the country today my head spun at Dad's words dad you can't do this I just want a chance to play in the Nationals mom please talk to Dad Dad says he has serious bad vibes about staying here with Mrs crazy next door or as your coach go in unpack Essentials only we need to leave here before she comes back from work that just didn't make sense so when they turned their backs I broke out in a run towards School ailia get back here at this point I could bet all my money that Mrs Freeze was dad's ex and he didn't want to find out well I was going to however at the moment I stepped into school I was cornered by Emily and her friends I can't put it past me that you beat me with one hand told you I was born and soaked in awesomeness or your gloved hand is hiding some kind of magic you're cheating with just admit that I'm better than you and get over it prove me wrong then show us what's beneath the gloves I knew Emily was going to use Force if I didn't cooperate to make things worse half of the school was now gathered around us and I just couldn't let them all see my hand just then I saw someone who could get me out of this mess Mrs Freeze please save me she ignored me as if she didn't know what was going on obviously she was still mad at me from last night Emily and her friends jumped on me then and succeeded in pulling off my gloves oh um G ET has got a sister the laughter was deafening ew it's like a Toad's hand just when I felt I would faint Mrs Freeze barged into the circle and grabbed my hand Amelia are you okay She's A Freak ma'am if she's a freak so am I she raised her hands showing her nailess fingers freaky freaky now run before I put all of you in detention she helped me to the school garden where I finally caught my breath Amelia I am so sorry I called you to help me you ignored me it's you you're the only one in the world with those hands my baby please forgive me your baby don't touch me you hurt her don't touch her you have some guts to say that to me after stealing my daughter Dad what's she talking about he's not your dad and she's not your mom I am what I told you to stay away from this insane no she's right we are not Amelia's parents her daughter Crystal is our real child mom and I went white with shock my ears were ringing 15 years ago I went to a park with my months old baby a man came with a baby in a stroller too we made small talk and then I needed to use the public restroom when I returned he had taken my baby and replaced mine with his own dad that man was you honey tell me she's lying please what was I supposed to do you were in a coma for months after you gave birth then I discovered that our baby was very sick I thought she wouldn't make it past her first birthday and I didn't want you to go through that if I knew she would survive I would have never this is why you wanted us to leave yes the day she gave me those flowers I saw her hands and recognized her as your real mother I'm so sorry for years I searched for you Amelia losing you turned me into a bitter and unhappy person Crystal arrived then and from the look on her face she had heard everything what is all this I'm hearing you are not my real mom Crystal what are you doing here I saw and heard all the commotion this morning at Amelia's place and I was so curious I had to follow I don't believe this is that enough proof for you Mrs Freeze gave my mom a copy of my birth certificate and written in it was my condition in details with this alone dad's fa was sealed that same day Mrs freze called the cops on Dad it hurt to see him arrested but he had to pay for his crimes no Amelia is my daughter she my heart broke for Mom and I hugged her of course I still am there's more to being related than blood right but today you have found another daughter show her some love it was the most emotional moment of my life dad went straight to jail from there it hurt to see him arrested but he had to pay for his crimes will you move in with me now how about we all move in together whatever you want dear as long as you're there the four of us rented a bigger house and even though it was super awkward at first over time we all Drew closer together somehow The Experience Made Me Stronger I stopped wearing gloves and thanks to having Mrs Freeze as my mom and Coach I became even more Unstoppable at basketball but I still had one more enemy to defeat so you got my beauty my basketball talent and your spooky nail thing thanks to the spooky nail thing that I was able to recognize you the moment you pulled off that glove just then Emily walked in and her face soured like limes what's going on here I'm bribing the coach who happens to be my mom your your mom yes I am and you know what a mom hates most in the world a person who picks on her child I'd run if I were you Emily went red in the face and picked race she gave me a wide birth from then on I learned that you should embrace whatever imperfection you have no one can ever hold it against you you and if you do bad things to hurt others it will come back to bite you in the nose it's just a matter of [Music] time I had just finished my K-pop performance in front of thousands of screaming fans when I returned to my trailer I found a strange wedding cake waiting for me what was that doing here suddenly a guy burst out and rushed towards me marry me Lisa I don't even know you I flipped him over and pinned him down piece of cake for me pun intended I was also a taekwan do Champion eventually security rushed in followed by my parents Lisa are you vocal cords okay did he damage them my cords are fine so is the rest of me if you're wondering how long did it take you to bring him down better not be longer than 5 Seconds otherwise I'll have to train you even harder taekwan doe is all about speed you know I rolled my eyes at my parents they could be so unbelievable sometimes hi my name is Lisa and I'm from South Korea you'd think being a K-pop Star and Taekwondo champion at the same time would be a dream but for me it was a literal nightmare because of my parents I had to juggle these completely different lives and it was exhausting one time I even had to do a Vogue interview in the middle of a fight for many years I managed to scrape by with juggling these two lives but when I turned 16 things reached their boiling point about the only time I really felt at peace was when I was in school studying my favorite subject science one day I was working on this cool new invention that would filter water for the homeless when suddenly mom burst through the door Lisa you have a photo shoot in 10 minutes come on the helicopter is waiting there we go again mom you can't just barge in here I was cut short by dad leaping in through the open window like a Spiderman wannabe Lisa a Sports magazine wants to do an interview with you right now let's go and to make things worse the paparazzi appeared Lisa you won't be able to manage K-pop and Taekwondo forever which career will you pick come on Lisa pick pick K-pop no pick Taekwondo and all the Mayhem I tried to back away but accidentally knocked over my invention it shattered to Pieces that's when I lost it I've had it with all of you I grabbed a paparazzi's camera and smashed it under my foot and left them all gaping at me like a bunch of fish the very next day my angry face was on the cover of every magazine in the country the media said I was becoming too violent and should be cancelled her K-pop career could be ruined because of this this is all your fault you're the one that hired a helicopter she could be banned from Taekwondo because of you enough I can't keep living like this I can't make both of you happy I can't keep juggling these different lives so I need to make a decision away from you two despite my parents' protests I needed to get away and find a clear head so I could finally decide what career path I should focus on I left soul that same day and moved to the countryside where my aunt s lived we used to hang out a lot when I was younger but since my K-pop and Taekwondo life grew and grew I saw her less and less as I arrived at her house I glanced at my new reflection I had to wear a disguise so people wouldn't recognize me it was crazy how different I looked I was really looking forward to finally having a break an song I've arrived I screamed in shock when I found a stranger tying ansung to a chair get away from her you creep I charged forward and tackled the guy but ansung shouted at me to stop sweee it's fine he's not harming me this is you J he's painting a portrait of me and I him to tie me up it's symbolic yeah now can you get off me oh sorry about that you J stood up and glared at me but I was speechless because he was so handsome is that how barbarians say hello Barbarian what was I supposed to do I thought you were kidnapping my aunt it's just a misunderstanding T anyone I'll come back later when there won't be any civilized girls attacking me as he left my blood boiled as if it was on fire I'm so so glad to see you stay here as long as you need Lisa we have much to catch up on I've missed this an song on my first day at school the most miraculous thing happened no one noticed me for once I could walk through the Halls without being chased by fans I was so happy my first class was chemistry and we had to make a mystical cloud from hydrogen peroxide the girl next to me must have mixed the wrong liquids because suddenly there was an explosion and we were both covered head to toe in foam oh my God I'm so so sorry here you can slap me if you want I totally deserve it slap me slap me wao relax tiger I'm not going to slap you it was an accident I thought nerds were supposed to be smart you both look like dessert one more word and this dessert is going to fry your butt in hot oil later in the cafeteria Hannah came up to me looking nervous thank you for defending me back there uh you're welcome my name is Le I stopped myself just in time I I forgot I had to start giving a fake name as part of my disguise uh Linda my name is Linda do you want to sit and have lunch with me you want to have lunch with me but you're so pretty and I'm just an ugly nerd don't ever call yourself that you're beautiful just as you are people should stop caring about their looks all the time it's the heart that counts so come and sit with me Hannah we instantly hit it off even though Hannah didn't have many friends I didn't care she was super funny and I was happy to have a normal friendship for once one day we were chatting in the hallway at school and I noticed she had a poster of me in her locker oh are you a fan of Lisa are you kidding me she's my idol she's so talented and beautiful she's just perfect Hannah continued fangirling over me and it was surreal she had no idea the person she was talking about was standing right next to her then a deep voice spoke up really Lisa's your favorite artist she's such a fake the mystery man shut his locker and I was stunned to see it was you JN oh it's you you shouldn't Eaves drop on people's conversations now that's barbaric how can you say that Lisa is literally my hero Lisa doesn't really love kpo you can see it in her eyes she's lost in there yeah you don't even know her you don't know anything the eyes don't lie Chico Eugen Shrugged and walked off but I was still a little shaken was he right did I always have a lost look in my eyes when I performed my thoughts were interrupted when Hannah poked me I've heard rumors about him supposedly his parents died in a house fire that he started and he's the leader of a criminal gang and he even eats bullets for breakfast I'd stay away from him if I were you you don't have to tell me twice he's super annoying one time at soccer practice I noticed him staring at Hannah and no matter how much I glared at him he wouldn't stop I think you need to work on your creeping skills why are you staring at Hannah creeping skills I'm not staring at Hannah Eugen scribbled in his book again and I snatched away you need to apologize to her because this behavior is I froze when I saw the drawings in the Sketchbook they were all of me you were drawing me I I thought you hated me I don't hate you and I was drawing you because beautiful people are easier to draw okay where did that come from you just thought I was beautiful before I could say anything Hannah grabbed my hand and pulled me away Linda coach is calling you she's my friend not yours I didn't really pay much attention to what Hannah said but I wish I had maybe things would have turned out better but I wasn't thinking about Hannah I wanted to know more about you JN so when he came over to our house to work on his painting I discovered he was actually very funny and kind I was surprised he wasn't at all the brooding merciless criminal leader Hannah made him out to be this painting needs something else to give it that extra oomph how about bananas flying in the background I like it bananas flying with bow TI after that we started hanging out more and more one time we were hanging out at the park and Eugen was drawing portraits of me you know your face is really similar to Lisa the K-pop Star what no don't be silly we don't look anything alike quickly I tried to change the subject you know I heard a bunch of rumors that you're a criminal gang leader h I've heard those same rumors they started when a student saw me talking to a police officer after I found a cat stuck up a tree rumors spread like wildfire in small villages like this did you believe the rumors what me believe those rumors never uh by the way random question you don't eat bullets for breakfast do you this time Eugen laughed so hard that he stopped drawing and rolled on the ground in laughter my face flushed red with embarrassment but I started laughing too just because of eugen's laugh I realized this was the hardest I laughed in he hears it felt really good Linda run while you can Hannah what in the flying fish are you doing Eugen pulled her off easily since she was basically half his height but then she tried to drag me away I'm saving you from being his captive that's what friends do e Jen isn't holding me captive besides even if he was I would whoop his butt in an instant she is a great butt Whooper no you can't be friends with him you're supposed to be only my friend why would you want to hang out with this freak Hannah Don't Call Him a freak he's sweet and kind and he's my friend just like how you're my friend for now this was a different side to Hannah that I didn't like for the rest of the week she would try to interrupt you Jen and I whenever we hung out it was getting really obsessive eventually I told her to back off just because I'm friends with you doesn't mean I can't be friends with anyone else You Don't Own Me Hannah oh I see how it is you think you're so popular now you're too cool for me the nerdy kid fine be that way but you're going to regret this and with those last words she left and stopped talking to us or so I thought Eugen became my bestie at school one day we were having lunch and I was showing Yun this funny meme on my phone when suddenly I got a text message from Jun cook what was that a text from junk cook as in the junk cook from BTS uh no must have been a scammer or something I couldn't let you J know I was friends with the real jungk cook otherwise he would know my true identity I was about show him another meme when suddenly something wet and sloppy fell on my head I cried out a spaghetti dropped on my shoulders oops sorry I must have slept I was ready to give her the butt kicking of her life but my stomach dropped when I realized my wig was slipping I ran off while Hannah and everyone else laughed at me I made it to the bathroom and took off my wig to rinse the pen sauce I thought I had locked the door but then it opened and eugin was standing there with his jaw hanging open Linda you you're Lisa the K-pop Star Lisa I knew it but how I'm sorry I had to lie to you I came here to get away from my life and I've had to hide my identity only ants knows please don't tell anyone uh of course I won't tell anyone your secret's safe with me we hugged and it felt so good to know someone knew my secret now I didn't have to keep lying to you Jen I could finally be myself around him that night we arrived at my house to tell aunts that Jen knew about my identity when we walked in we found her unconscious on the floor we quickly rushed her to the hospital and the doctor said she had been poisoned by the dirty water why don't you have a filtration system to clean the water we don't have any funding there's nothing we can do I'll see about that I remembered my first water filtration invention I had made ages ago it took a while but eventually I managed to replicate it and had it installed at the well I did it anonymously so I didn't bring any attention to myself and Sun meanwhile was still in a coma and Y Jen would often keep me company while we visited her he was really supportive through it all and I was so grateful to have him in my life one night we were walking home from the hospital when suddenly there were footsteps behind us and someone dropped a note at my feet The Stranger disappeared but when I read the note I gasped it read reveal yourself or I will oh no someone knows about me why does it matter if someone knows who you are because it's the whole reason why I'm here I need to make a decision drop K-pop or Taekwondo I still don't know what to do I know exactly how you feel before I became a painter my parents pushed me to be a lawyer and a doctor it took me a while but I soon realized that I didn't like either of those careers so I moved out here and pursued painting it's what truly makes me happy so maybe for you it's not a matter of picking one or the other maybe there's something else you love yeah maybe there is after a few weeks ansung finally woke up and we moved back home when she heard what I'd done with the filtering system she was so proud this is incredible Lisa I didn't know you were a scientist I've always loved science at school I guess with K-pop and Taekwondo I just sort of forgot about science H maybe you should think about taking it back up again you've made an excellent start here before I could say anything the window glass shattered and a hord of Paparazzi poured in Lisa why are you hiding are you quitting K-pop or Taekwondo get away from her you can't barge in here like this how did you even know I was hiding here someone named you June told us he said you were hiding under a fake name in Disguise we had to pay him a big reward for the details I felt like my whole world had crumbled to sand how could you I opened my heart to you Lisa I swear I have no idea what they're talking about I'm such a fool Hannah was right you're nothing but a lying freakish criminal everyone out now especially you I had to get out of there as soon as possible when I arrived back in Soul my parents flooded me with K-pop and taekwon do it's like I'd never even left they hadn't changed it all but they had no idea I had become an entirely new person so when I walked into the Taekwondo Stadium instead of starting my fight I ran off and grabbed a mic and addressed the world what are you back to your fight mom dad there's something I need to tell you you want me to follow in both of your footsteps and for a while I thought I could but a former friend helped me discover the OB VI I don't even like K-pop or Taekwondo you asked me to make a decision to drop one or the other but I'm making a different decision I'm dropping both to pursue science these other things are all about me and my ego with science it's all about helping other people I'm sorry to disappoint you but I won't be your puppet anymore my parents looked like two shocked goats as I dropped the mic and walked out I felt sorry for them but also free I realized I could do whatever I wanted now that evening when when they knocked on my bedroom door I expected to get the scolding of a lifetime but instead they both hugged me tightly I just wanted to say we just wanted to say how sorry we are I guess we were so caught up in what we thought was best for you that we forgot you had a life of your own so you'll let me pursue science what of course not science is such a nerdy subject what about fashion fashion she should be studying engineering I glared at them until they finally ented uh I mean of course you can pursue science you're a smart girl Lisa no matter what you do we'll support you your mother's right for once you have my full support to pursue science thank you for understanding now you just need to work hard so you can go to Harvard no Cambridge Harvard Cambridge my parents weren't going to change overnight but the fact they let me pursue science was a good start my K-pop and Taekwondo days were over and now I could finally do what I actually loved I went to neither Cambridge nor Harvard instead I attended a uni in South Korea and studied biomechanical engineering one of my projects even received National recognition at the award ceremony I was shocked to see Hannah in the crowd but when she spotted me she immediately started running wait Hanah don't beat me up why would I do that I'm happy to see you I actually owe you an apology you were right about eug Jen he betrayed me and you warned me about him but I didn't listen I hope you can forgive me you don't know anything Hanah what aren't you telling me we're friends you can tell me anything we can't be friends because I have a confession Eugen never told a Paparazzi about you I did I used e Jen's name so it would look like he betrayed you I saw you in the bathroom when you took off your wig and I was the one who left the threatening note what why would you do all this because I was jealous of you Jen I wanted you back as my friend I'm so sorry now you know why we can't ever be friends I've ruined everything I was speechless but I knew what needed to be done it was the opposite of what I would usually do it's okay I know you've had a tough time at school and all you wanted was a friend well I can still be that friend you mean it wait are you going to kick my butt first my butt kicking days are behind me I said goodbye to Hannah and left the award ceremony immediately because I realized I had to find you Jen and apologize to him the last time we spoke I had called him a traitor when really I was the one who had betrayed him I got home but when I walked in Huen was waiting in the living room you John Lisa I didn't betray you I I know Hannah just confessed she's the one who framed you I should have believed you without you I never would have realized my true dreams I guess we both found our true dreams in the end you mean you're painting try again my true dream is much more beautiful Ean leaned in in and we kissed like we were in some kind of fairy tale and we were I started off following my parents' path but now I was writing a story of my own making and it was off to a great [Music] start hi I'm Diego want to know how I ended up speeding for my life in a parched desert with assassins after me please like subscribe and keep watching I wasn't always that daring in fact growing up I didn't like to stay around people and nothing excited me hey stop that easy there I was just playing with you didn't you find it ticklish I found it annoying even the side of other kids playing wouldn't move me why don't you go play with the other kids they seem like a fun Bunch why should I I have all the invisible friends I need meet Sam RAM and cam my parents got so worried about my attitude they even took me to see a doctor nope it's not autism but he leans towards me quite unfriendly could end up being a very lonely old man maybe a little exercise would do him some good or a dance class something to make you more sociable my parents became obsessed about trying to engage me and Trigger some kind of excitement they would take me with them wherever they were going but all their efforts were like water on stone until one day when I was six they were invited to service some go-karts in a carting Arena the moment the race started I felt so jittery I could faint dad mom I want to ride in one too you want to join the race be with the other kids holla he's never been this excited this is huge mom and dad were astonished and of course just to keep me talking they rushed me to the sports manager and begged him to make me part of the race somehow this little girl it takes months to learn how to drive a cart years before she can get to race in a competition like this first off he's a boy please you don't understand our son has never shown interest let me handle this Mr Man get get my son in there or I promise you this Arena of yours will mysteriously turn into a place of rubbles tomorrow mysteriously Paulo Rodriguez I um I could arrange something note about my mom she was a wrestler before she met my dad note to end thanks to my mom's former reputation as a female wrestler I was put in a cart for the first time and everything was like magic I had never felt the burst of energy racing gave me that day and the experience was enough for me to find and my passion 10 years later I was ready to be a full-time car racer but Dad took a stab at my heart with what he presented as his support taada look at this sweet baby that is a sweet baby I spent months secretly working on this car Diego may look rough but it will do the job this car wasn't just rough it was straight up ugly I could imagine how much I would be laughed at if I was caught in it I can't I can't use that to race well it's what we can afford take it or leave it besides this car might look throwaway worthy but you will have a blast on the road with it Diego trust me this car will serve no don't worry it's cool I will just have to wait until I start earning my own cash I guess save up enough to buy a good car whenever that'll be that night I laid awake thinking of something that could fetch me money in addition to the little I earned helping my parents out I decided to start washing cars for my parents' clients but Dad couldn't take seeing me exert myself so much Diego so you would pause your dreams to be a racer because you don't have a Sleek ride that thing in there dad is hideous no offense I guess this is my last resort our family heirloom yeah there is this man in Mexico that is popular for collecting precious antiques such as this perhaps if I sell this to him he can help us afford a car that is to your taste it is worth a good number of bucks you know my heart practically melted at Dad's gesture thanks Dad I know how special this air Loom is to you I will make selling it worth it I promise I am trusting you son I'll be back in a couple of days a couple of days turned to weeks and dad didn't come back it was like he had disappeared Into Thin Air the police kept telling us to be patient that he could be found but it was hard to just wait and hope that he was okay to make things worse mom turned into a shadow of herself it got so bad I began to fear for her one morning I woke to the smell of burning food I rushed to the kitchen and saw mom stirring up pot that was turning to Charcoal mom what are you doing what a silly question cooking of course cooking or trying to turn the kitchen into an incinerator oh so sorry now don't you go worrying about me boy of course I did worry seeing mom so out of it scared me I couldn't sit and wait for Dad to come home anymore so after Mom slept I got ready to go to Mexico and find dad or at least know what happened to him we needed some closure somehow and for that I had no choice but to use our only means of Mobility The Battered buggy I had rejected hey I know you may hold a grudge against me from last time today I ask for your forgiveness and pray that you please cooperate and not break down on the road a few hours after I left the US border for Mexico stop are you crazy I nearly hit you you're on your way to Mexico right hurry up and drive make hey while the sunshines you she really was crazy I'm sorry what please just drive help a fellow woman out here fellow woman that's it please get out of my car I didn't know what her hurry was but there was no way I was traveling with a crazy woman to Mexico oh sorry that was an easy mistake yo but believe me if you don't step on that pedal you and I are going to my heart stopped at the sight of a very unfriendly looking guy speeding towards us please drive they after me no way their businesses with you not me did you rob them or something tell me what you did I am not not a thief they are the ones that want to rob a helpless Mr warberry yo did you say Mr wor Berry that's my dad how do you know him where did you see him no way are you Diego of all the things your family could

you can slow down now oh no what now his colleagues are behind us now with a car I nearly gave up when I saw that they were pursuing us with a saline S7 one of the fastest cars I dreamed of driving this clunky box has no chance but I have no choice it's this or nothing we're not going to make it quit screaming and start praying Lord to the skies please tell me there's enough to for me in heaven yo not that kind of prayer you Blockhead we're still going to get you it's a promise when we had driven for some hours without any sight of our pursuers I deemed it safe to rust from all the driving and finally talk to the stranger in my car but that idea flew out the window the moment ataku spoke first man that was some awesome driving you did back there it was like a fast and furious scene are you a racer or something I used to be a cart racer haven't really raced with a car before well that's a shame what's stopping you look at what you did with this old Cario what was stopping me indeed I realized then that I had put my career on hold for a stupid reason I haven't even given this car a chance to prove its worth and now my dad was missing because I couldn't be content with what we had let's focus at the matter at hand you said you know my father I ain't so sure he's your father yet yo what if you're another of bosses boys is this the worry Berry you know yes I was actually on my way to see you and your mom on your way from the US to see me in Mexico when he told me your name was Diego and your mom Paula I just assumed you lived in Mexico yo wait my dad is not in Mexico nope he's in California my head swam with her words and I rushed out to get some air hey what's wrong I thought he went to Mexico you mean I've driven for over 13 hours in the opposite direction hey going back to California is still closer than continuing to Mexico and you wouldn't have met me your dad came to sell this to my boss Mr born what happened to him your dad came down with the flu the same day he arrived at beorn's Place beorn took the golden toothpick wouldn't pay your dad was too weak to get it back and beorn wouldn't let him go I was assigned to monitor him yo but we became friends and he begged me to retrieve the toothpick correction family heirloom yeah family heirloom in the form of a toothpick my ears seemed to ache from hearing my father's ordeal but at least there was hope this this born you will have to take me to him it's hard to get the police on him he's slippery like a fish deep in the mafia and if he sees me again he will even if he's the devil no one is going to keep me from my dad now I know he's alive you took a big risk to help my dad and I can't be grateful enough and I won't let anything happen to you promise okay that was way too corny not my style well don't blame me it's not like I ever had interest in a girl before or anybody other than my parents for that matter between and you I was just winging it but the heavens were on my side because we found our pursuers in a predicament that proved very advantageous for us look what we have here stuck in the quicksand I think this is the situation where we say the Predator has become the prey please help us please oh I'm willing to help all right but it's going to come with a prize you're going to tell us where to find your boss give us your phones and we're going to need your suits no way in hell I heard that there is a music that makes Quicks hands swallow people faster oh want to try it out sure told you beautiful medley I think I want to hear it again no no please you fools how did you let out a cou Escape who knows where she will go screaming to well it's not like she has the evidence to prove it no one will search the house for a missing nobody that is reference to whom I guessed should be my dad I couldn't keep up the disguise anymore I'm interested in that missing nobody imposters hello boss you traitor I gave you everything raised you like my own daughter why would you bite the finger that fed you I can't watch you do the things you do anymore I can't Mr beorn why would you take my family's heirloom from my dad refuse to pay him and still hold him hostage for months no comment I knew getting him to cooperate that way would be hard but I had planed two Paula Rodriguez ready to start talking let's go for a ride born kept his lips sealed but by the time we got him to the the police station and he saw his boys he had little Choice with his exposure the police got to search's house and found my dad I couldn't have been happier Dad hey sport missed me I'm so sorry I was selfish I shouldn't have let you leave to sell your precious toothpick for my sake precious toothpick that sounds so wrong family heirloom family heirloom sorry got B influence hey old man you should have just told me your family was right here in calo you ran off the moment I mentioned their names figures thank you ataku and Diego I don't regret trying to sell it why would I hold on to something that could help my son achieve his dreams did you sell it I don't have to yesterday I realized that I already have what I need thanks to that experience I learned that I didn't even need the fanciest car to be the best racer my skills were What mattered most Formula One was a sure goal for me and I had the best support team life couldn't possibly get better what was that for you you don't I thought we just messing with you come here I learned that success is not always dependent on having the fanciest or most expensive equipment or resources if small as what you have start small focus on your skills rather than overreaching or trying to make a big splash at the onset and hey drive carefully yo hello besties I'm Leila and I'm from India please like And subscribe to SDA I was born into a family of accountants and when I was just 2 years old dad gave me my first calculator this is a calculator Leila if you want to be a great accountant one day you need to start now of course I had no idea what he was talking about I was just two right after he left the room I threw the calculator like a flying saucer and when I was nine I finally realized what I wanted to be after watching a space Channel on YouTube Mom Dad I know what I want to be when I grow up I want to be an astronaut Leila have you been watching nonsense again on your mother's phone not nonsense dad YouTube enough from now on you will watch educational programs with us I wanted to talk back the back chatting in my family meant you are grounded for life I sat down and watched their boring accounting Channel and then all of a sudden my eyes started burning and everything became blurry mom my eyes are burning stop being dramatic Lea and watch I'm not I can't see Mom Dad help I think she's telling the truth we have to take her to the hospital Mom and Dad rushed me to the hospital I was diagnosed with radiation cataracts this was caused by too much light from a screen like a TV phone or computer I guess you can forget about being an astronaut now because up there you would have to see lots of light every day why do you have to be so horrible Dad I'm your child and I have a sickness calm down Leila dad was just joking well no one is laughing I was devastated about what was happening to me the doctor even said that in a few years I would need to have an operation or else I would be blind but then my hope flourished again again when I saw a shooting star I was not going to give up I continued to frustrate my parents about my passion when I was 15 I made my own astronaut costume and wore it for career day at school as I walked in confidence some kids laughed but that didn't bother me until a douchebag with a huge camera flashed the thing in my face causing me to lose my sight and I walked into a locker hey are you all right I I am so sorry I was just admiring your costume and since I'm a future photographer quiet my eyes are still burning from your camera flash oh no I am so sorry please let me help you to class my name is Shane I'm actually in your science class I hate science but you're so brilliant and Shane I know who you are so please go I'll be fine are you sure your eyes are turning red and Shane was a class chatter box everyone ran away from him because he could never shut up and now because of this little incident I seemed stuck with him he even followed me home after school Shane what are you doing I'm making sure you get home safe I'm a real gentleman my mother always told me to be polite but my father well he's never around always busy at is Big accounting for him I don't like accounting a night okay okay I'm home now so you can go before Shane could cycle off dad's car pulled over and he got out looking so mad dad why do you look so angry I just got fired so yes I am mad I'm sorry to hear that sir my dad owns a company maybe I can talk to him for you ilila who is this is he your boyfriend are you bringing boyfriends home while we're at work no Dad how can you think that no no sir I was just making sure your daughter is safe which company does your father own the biggest accounting firm in the country B and G sir your father is a crook he just fired me for a mistake he made and he's been stealing a lot of money from many people oh that's not true I can get out of here you child of a thief Shane drove away and Dad warned me never to speak to him again I agreed but things at home after Dad lost his job were never the same mom would come home from work and still clean while Dad just sat around all day watching TV and he was so grumpy because couldn't even laugh when he was around and then one day during the early hours of the morning I got up to drink a glass of water and found mom crying in the kitchen as she looked at the bills Mom are you okay Lea what are you doing up I was thirsty you're crying I'm just so tired we might have to use the money we saved up for your cataract operation to pay these bills it's okay Mom I'm sure I won't go blind just yet days later I had to eat my words up because my eyes were not doing so well since I struggled to see a single thing on the class board when I excused myself to the bathroom I could hardly find my way and when I got to the bathroom I got the shock of my life when Shane suddenly screamed oh why are you here I'm here to use the bathroom why are you here using the bathroom wait are the boys and girls sharing the same bathroom now I know you ladies always fight for equal rights but this would be a little over the top I looked closer at the door sign and my face turned red with embarrassment oh my gosh Shane I am so sorry I didn't read the sign right it's okay it happens I made a mistake like that twice before my excuse was my eye problem I wondered what his was let me go before anyone else sees me after my little incident with Shane he somehow assumed we were friends and followed right behind me during lunch break I think the universe is trying to say something to us what do you think it's saying that we're meant to be friends my dad specifically told me to stay away from you so I don't think so wow I should try that too chocolate syrup and hot dog huh you put chocolate syrup all over your hot dog I think I should try that here you can have mine M this is so delicious wow what a discovery Shane was definitely a special kind of species but what troubled me the most was how bad my eyes were becoming because the next thing I did was walked into a wall and of course Shane was there to catch me when I almost fell backwards you see I told you the universe was trying to bring us together no leave me alone Shane when I tried to get away from him I walked into another wall but this time I blacked out after some time I opened my eyes and everything was black it was like I was in a dark hole and couldn't get out so I started panicking where am I I can't see Leila calm down you're in my car I can't see it's over I'm blind what are you talking about how is this possible I told Shane everything and he cradled me in his arms as I cried my eyes out I'm here for you and I'm going to drive you to the hospital now when I got to the hospital I was Rush to the emergency Ward and I was so scared but Shane was right by my side Shane what's going on the doctors are going to make your eyes better but my parents don't have the money for this don't worry I got you after he said that I dozed off and I don't know how long I was blacked out when I woke up I still saw Darkness but after some seconds I saw Mom and Dad Lea oh my baby how do you feel I can see I can see Mom thank god dad just looked at me sternly Dad what's wrong you disobeyed me me I told you to stay away from that boy but when we got here he was here I had to chase him away you chased him away he saved my life he saved your eyes not your life and you will pay him every cent back we are not a charity case dad walked away and mom never said anything back as usual mom why don't you ever say anything back to him why do you always leave to be so mean I didn't want to start a problem the most important thing right now is that you are fine when I was well enough to go back to school Shane was the first person I could wait to see I didn't care what Dad said I was going to be his friend and he loved taking pictures of me oh Leila you are a natural you should be a model or an actress I could but I love space science I know it's a strange career choice but it gets me excited follow your dreams no matter what if it wasn't for your help Shane my dreams would have been shattered thank you so much it was good to have a friend like Shane who encouraged me but back home when I was in grade 12 I came home and found dad smiling for the first time time in ages what happened did you get a job no even better this is your acceptance letter to study accounting at the best college in the country you applied for me yes it's what we plan for your future but that's not what I want you know how passionate I am about space why do you always ignore what I love Leila you are going to study accounting this is what we are good at no Dad it's what you are good at I applied to study space science and that's what I'm good at then you will not live under my roof you might as well start searching for a new home in space fine I'll definitely do that Dad when Mom came home from work I cried on her shoulder and asked her to speak to Dad but she was being the typical submissive wife again oh Leila my baby just listen to your father and all will be well what are you not even going to speak to him and tell him that there is nothing wrong with being an incredible scientist we can't take risks like that hun accounting is much safer than that career please think about it I was so mad but I had to calm down and play nice at least until I completed my grade 12 and when I eventually did graduate I was so excited that I even forgot that my parents were present and hugged Shane dad wasted no time to attack Leila what are you doing with this boy come on dad it's our graduation everyone is happy I told you I don't like this boy but I did nothing wrong to you sir and my father told me what really happened you were stealing enough Leila let's go no what is he talking about you told us that Shane's father was the crook dad looked at me like I wasn't even his daughter at that moment so I drew back but him he was cold as a monster AA let's just go no she's done with school now she can find her own way in life I couldn't believe how my parents walked away from me like that I was hurt but I had to stay strong Leila I'm so sorry I didn't expect them just to leave you that was a bit too harsh I looked at Shane and I couldn't hold back my tears I had no idea what I was going to do oh Shane what have I done I have no money no job no place to stay my father will never take me back I'll speak to my dad for you to stay in the guest house your family already helped with my eye operation I don't want to be a burden hey you could never be a burden you're like my best friend in the whole wide world hearing Shane say that helped ease my shattered heart from my parents Shane's family offered me a nice space in their guest house it even had a balcony Shane bought me a telescope to look at the stars as a motivation for my career and one evening while I was out gazing into the telescope I accidentally gazed into Shane's room he was at his window with his shirt off and oh boy was I amazed I had no idea how much muscles he had I was literally drooling to get my mind off this sudden attraction I had for Shane I decided to search for part-time jobs and then Shane entered and I almost spilled coffee all over the laptop hey what are you up to Shane you startled me I was just looking for a job why we have everything here what about your studies I know I should be happy that I even have a scholarship ship but I need to make my own money I don't feel right eating off you and your parents I told you you don't have to feel bad I've got you I know Shane meant well but I had a very big conscience and got a job at a big toy store I had to dress up like different Disney characters every day and kids were always surrounding me the job was fun until one day this one kid accidentally blew a bubble into my eyes my eyes it burns the store owner quickly took me to the back room where I managed to wash my eyes and cool down it brought back memories of when I went blind that was the most scariest time of my life the store owner allowed me to leave early so I called Shane when he came to pick me up I felt so emotional and hugged him hey what happened nothing big I'm so grateful for you Shane he kissed me on my forehead my feelings for him grew stronger but I kept it to myself every day after work I had to get down to studies it wasn't easy studying during the evenings sleep was always over me but Shane would come in with a nice cup of coffee remind me to stay focused thank you so much how are your studies going it's going okay but there are so many other photographers who are better than me hey look at me you are the best forget about what others can do and always tell yourself that you are the best thank you I needed to hear that I was glad to be there to motivate him and I was even stunned at myself my parents letting me go actually made me stronger I scored the highest in my grades at University I helped the toy store make the most sales than ever before and a year later I could find fin afford my own place plus continue with my studies I was so proud of myself and so was Shane you inspire me Leila you are such a strong person I could have never done it without you I felt like we had a moment so I did the unthinkable I kissed Shane and he pulled back Leela I can't oh I feel so embarrassed I thought it's not you I'm gay oh wow how come you never told me I never tell anyone just scared of not being accepted I hugged Shane showing him that I love him him just the way he is after Shane's big reveal we would spend even more time together and then one day I was surprised with a new visitor dad your mom is in hospital dad said Mom fainted at work I wasn't surprised to see Mom this way what surprised me was Dad he actually looked so weak this is all my fault I put so much pressure on her you're right Dad you took Mom for granted she could never be free around you but yet you were supposed to love her dad looked at me shocked because no one ever stood up to him how can you be so disrespectful I'm being factual change your ways or else you'll be alone on this Earth with no one to love you I left dad to think about his actions as for me I still continued in my independent journey and you know what I made it I started living my dream all because I never stopped believing in me Hello friends I'm tum Misha from the th desert also known as Butterfingers or Miss clumsy onesie because that's why don't forget to like And subscribe everyone in my family had a gift except me mom loves stitching the most craziest designs once she stitched a picture of a zebra with all its stripes coming off on my only white Punjabi isn't that pretty what's wrong with the zebra it symbolizes how you keep dropping things if you were a zebra you would probably drop your stripes that's interesting my sister Siri who was 2 years older than me loved drawing and she was so good at it hey Siri what's the weather like today hot like an oven make sure to wear your Sun hat you want to play not right now Mom asked me to draw something for Dad's workplace my dad had a gift with animals and worked at the Desert National Park tomisha you've want to try feeding I loved it when dad asked me to help out but the animals usually didn't stay still in my arms how come the animals don't like me the way they like you Dad they need to get used to you and you need to relax around them I'll teach you everything you need to know about Val learning from dad was always fun but although I loved all animals I wasn't passionate about them like Dad was I sucked at pretty much everything I tried desperately to find my strength in many things like for instance Stone hockey T Misha I walked miles for that water why oh why it was an accident you and your silly accidents I'm getting so tired of it well Stone hockey was obviously not in my good books so when I was nine I tried out our tribal dance which only certain people could pull off I had it going until I started spinning okay yeah everyone had something special about themselves but me tum Misha bring me the ostrich egg whenever mom asked me to do anything I got so excited because she always let Siri do everything and then boom there was a rock in the way and the Egg flew in the air cracking open on mom's head T Misha it was an accident you always say that why can't you learn from your sister it was really an accident I'm sorry well mom never let any of my accidents Slide by that easy later that night we each got a piece of pastry and the broken pieces of the eggshell for dinner Siri did you show your father that beautiful bird you drew today maybe he can hang it up at the national park this is it Dad wow this is indeed very nice I am so proud of you Siri thank you Dad our dinner time was usually like this Siri mom or dad received Praises for what they accomplished while I watched I was happy for Siri and she always tried to involve me that's because my sister was a true sweetheart tomisha also discovered something amazing today dad oh great what did you discover well I was looking at the sun and realized the sun rays are even stronger than before I think it's searching for water to suck up so it can rain that's the most craziest thing I've heard I'll tell you what your daughter has been up to she broke an entire egg and that's why our plates are half empty I told you it was an accident and we learned about evaporation and how the clouds get full at school I think that there is a drought coming a big one if it doesn't rain soon well if there is a drought we all know who to blame you mom didn't like me because I wasn't perfect like Siri and no matter how many times I apologized about my mistakes mom always saw me as some big failure I enjoyed School especially when the teacher spoke about inventions nature and how humans were made they called it science and it was the coolest thing ever now who can explain living and non-living things living things are people plants animals and seeds and non-living things are Stones sand and air well done Tamisha you get a later that evening I finally had something to boast about at the dinner table Tamisha when are you taking that thing off your forehead you mean my star my teacher gave me because I was brilliant in class Brilliance is when your hands can can be put to good use what will you do with knowledge in a desert well I think it's a good thing don't be ridiculous all the girls in the desert know that cooking cleaning and sewing gives them a better opportunity to lure a rich man tum Misha is almost a teenager and she can't do anything I guess Siri will remain your star girl T Misha I knew my sister didn't mean any harm I was just so tired of Mom's negativity towards me Siri why does mom hate me she doesn't hate you she's just looking out for you she loves you but isn't love accepting a person as they are I don't know I think love is having a roof over our heads and food to eat yeah maybe you're right can you teach me how to do things like you of course I can sis I shadowed Siri trying to be just like her and it wasn't easy because it wasn't me you have to focus on this one I don't understand why we can't just carry the pot in our hands is so much simpler it's lighter on the head no matter how much I tried to be a perfect lady it didn't work and to make it worse one of the women saw me drop the water and looked upset you girls are silly to waste water at a time like this that was probably the last bit of water you will find in the well what are you talking about the well is dry dear the men of the desert will have to leave tonight to buy bottled water from the far away stores this was bound to happen since there hasn't been rain for a very long time gosh the lady was right what's going to happen to all of us how will we survive those are some tough questions let's go back home and see dad before he leaves with the men I wish dad didn't have to go even though he spent most of his time with animals at least he wasn't like Mom he never paid attention to my mistakes please come back safely dad I will you take care of your mom and TOA you are not perfect but you are brave dad's words gave me courage to stay strong I never thought of myself being brave but maybe that was my purpose to be a brave heart days passed since our fathers left the desert to get water from the far away stores and everyone looked so miserable and I felt this urge inside of me to save everyone yes domisha can't we do something using science to save the desert all our fathers are out there trying to make a plan I think we should leave it to them I couldn't understand how everyone could continue with life so normally everything was drying up during recess I spent time in the library researching for a way to save the desert from the drought H an ancient riverbed in the th desert wow there's even a map I could use this later after school I took Siri with me following the map in the book but her mind was not at all into finding a solution she had her own set of problems I never knew about that book was made ages ago tum Misha there's no way that map can still work it's worth a try imagine if there really is an ancient riverbed and we find it well that would be great for you since you're the smart one hey is something else bothering you yes I think I I might fail school what how come you never said anything before I was embarrassed so I faked my report card the whole year now it's end of the year oh Siri I really could have helped you but don't give up there's always next year I wish I was smart like you and no I'm not going back to school next year I'll be turning 18 and I think I'm going to take Mom's advice and wait for someone Rich to marry me mom's influence on Siri was so strong that whatever I said meant zilch Siri started spending more time with Mom and I became almost invisible around the house hey Siri you still want to come with me on that Adventure you almost got it Siri okay then I guess I'll go alone jeez do you have to be that hot like give us a break already I followed the map over the sand dunes and further down to the valley between the dunes I couldn't make out the rest of the directions on the map it was an old history book so the map was faded wow I've never seen butterflies here before I know it was crazy but it was like a voice inside of me urging me to dig the ground I had to save the desert where is she already what if something ate her up calm down Mom it's not that dark yet let's go find her I know I've always been hard on her but I wouldn't be okay if something happened tum Misha is a strong girl you have nothing to worry about my body and mind couldn't stop I felt so close to something big until I heard Mom's voice tum Misha tum Misha I'm in here oh thank the gods what are you doing here we were worried sick you trying to bury something oh my gosh no Mom I got a good feeling that there's water below this spot so I started digging oh why me what will the people say when they find out my child has lost her mind oh oh Mom do you have to be so dramatic I strongly believe that I can save the desert from a terrible drought okay let's just go back home but I'm not done here don't be crazy mom is worried sick about you please let's just go I followed them back but that didn't mean I was going to give up on my mission I did not go to school for 7 days what was the point of having education if it was not put to use so I used my knowledge even though people laughed at me hey crazy girl when are you going to clean up this mess you made H I'm sure after I find water you'll be the first one down here to quench your thirst no outter down there crazy girl you've been digging here for 7 days you will only find snakes down there their words didn't stop me from proving my point digging a hole was not easy but I couldn't give up have to stay strong have to stay strong when I opened my eyes I saw this very goodlooking creature in front of me am I in heaven no you faint did you should take a break no I have to finish I have this feeling that I'm very close okay then I'll help you the boy's name was ecam he was cute and I looked like I just stepped out of a dry desert ironic I know looks like you found a crazy person to join you your mother should be ashamed you are very brave to be doing this what if you don't find any water look if you're going to have doubts then maybe don't help me fine Rude the ladies are right you are crazy oh my gosh the sand is wet the sand is wet you're right we need to keep digging water I knew it everyone come see we found the water we you were only here for a couple of seconds eam found the water everyone I felt like a bomb about to explode this boy took my shine I couldn't believe how blindsided everyone was was it a curse to be a girl the people had a celebration even though our fathers were not back no appreci ation was shown to me when I wanted to speak my mind mom stopped me this is so unfair I'm the one who believed there was water underground I'm the one who went there every day I never gave up then this dimwad comes along and steals the show I can't watch this well he is a boy and the water was found when he was with you that's what they've been saying oh so being a girl means we are disqualified from making any discoveries that is just ridiculous you be quiet that's all this is the way things are and we have to accept it I know it's painful sis no one will hear you out just let it be when I was just about to leave the party everyone screamed an Asiatic wild cat had crept into the village no doubt lured by the sight of water dad told me about them when I was little and they are only dangerous when attacked or in instances like this where there is a lot of panic Aram save us from the cat never turn your back on a wild cat stand tall and look them in their eyes I'm to scared to do that you save them my heart pounded as I faced the wild cat and hoped what dad taught me would work give me your scarf when the wild cat finally disappeared I faced the people who looked at me speechless why are you all so shocked is it because I'm a girl where's your ecam oh look he is hiding come out ecam come out ecam and act like you saved them from the wild cat too Toma I think it's time to go home no I am tired of women pulling down women just for being brave what is wrong with you arram did you dig a hole for the past 7 days and what were you about to do when I found the wet sand walk away louder or else I'll call the cat back I was away thank you so your hero who was a boy did not discover anything I T Misha a strong young woman made that Discovery because I believed in knowledge while all of you laughed at me I'm not going to be quiet just because I am female after some days days I was the famous tum Misha but my sister was very distant hey Siri what's the weather like very dull at the moment please carry an umbrella what's really wrong I've decided to go back to school you promise you'll help me hey I'm the girl who dug the biggest hole imagine what I can do for my one and only sister whom I love so much hello there is everyone dad oh thank the gods dad and the rest of the father others didn't come with any water dad said they were held up by some Bandits but that's another story Tamisha you have made us proud thank you for being brave we are so proud of you tum Misha I was always special I just had to persevere to realize it hi I'm Dewey from durian Island a tiny island in Indonesia known for its stinky fruits Pirates Smugglers and me check this out I was born with a very rare eye condition that turned my my eyes red crazy right freaks a lot of people out the cool thing is I have Cat Vision at night the not so cool thing I live alone on a remote island and I'm an orphan do me a favor and hit that like And subscribe button I can't remember my parents not really someone took care of me when I was little but after that I was pretty much on my own I was told they were lost at sea hello Mr eir Nice Day The Village Chief made sure I didn't go to school but with the help of a Kind teacher I found a way she's the one who gave me my first pair of sunglasses what a relief they were they made me so happy okay class open your textbooks to chapter 5 we'll be reading about birds today while humans didn't want that much to do with me I had plenty of friends on the island turns out they didn't like my friends that much either the meanest were the older kids they all followed the chief's son and did whatever he told them I tried to avoid them but they relished making fun of me it's the devil girl don't look at her are you going to let me pass where are you going little devil girl going to play with your little friends maybe I'll eat your friends I heard those devil eyes will turn you to Stone oh yeah want to find out I'm not scared of you do you really want me to stare into your eyes I will know your deepest darkest secrets and then I'll turn you to Stone it's the ghost I wondered where you were I've got a treat for you just a typical day for me only this time I went a bit too far with the chief's son you might be wondering how a small girl like me could survive on her own the sea provided for me most everything I needed was washed ashore all I had to do was find it sometimes I felt my parents were out there helping me I know who's going to like this I knew right away who was behind the Angry Crowd the chief son I heard a rustling in the bush I knew the ghost was near I smiled smiled and went inside tossing the sunglasses into the bush as I did be ready naturally the chief's son complained his father and naturally everyone decided this would be a perfect opportunity to continue to behave badly my son says you viciously attacked him and his friends yesterday viciously how I'm just a small 8-year-old girl her eyes the ghost she attacked us with witchcraft your son is a good for nothing liar and as far as my ghost do you really want to meet him or are you afraid I am afraid of nothing I am the chief of this village Village Chief Meet The Village ghost mocha now I had found mocha a few years earlier when she was just a small little thing we both suffered from the same eye condition which was why she preferred the Deep Jungle we were best mates from day one and looked out for each other she helped find others who needed help there was nothing we wouldn't do for each other later when the chief found his courage we were banished from ever entering the village again but we didn't care we had each other we just needed a new and better place to live somewhere far away from the cruel humans evening was our favorite time of the day when the sun fell we could see naturally during the day it hurt too much without the glasses but at night the night was ours that evening we went searching for a new home mocha spotted at first we were walking along the shoreline and I was worried about where we could all live when mocha point Ed out a hidden cave above us nice work mocha we'll rest here tonight well done mocha maybe this was a Pirate Cave maybe there's treasure in here Smugglers not Pirates nobody's been here for years is this your parents oh MOA I'm so sorry we're more alike than I thought years passed and we collected a large menagerie of animals that needed Refuge the sea kept providing for us we used every opportunity we had to scavenge what we could and until I was 17 we were very happy danger danger mocha mocha often woke up before me and scouted the beach for useful items the night before there was a huge storm so the picking should have been good from my vantage point I saw that the storm had brought something else last night something that sent a cold chill through my heart Smugglers I remember thinking this could not be happening but I knew deep down fear gripped my heart Loa you can't take her stop my worst fears crashed down on me I felt my life ripped from me as I watched helpless The Smuggler stole mocha from me no good girl I will find you hey you can't be here sorry I need to borrow nobody is taking any I hadn't been back to the village for years I felt bad borrowing the boat but I had to follow that ship before it was too late M safe they capture live animals so for now yes they've slowed down they're heading for the big light on the horizon whatever that is best fly back home I've got a bad feeling about that light go on the next day I discovered what the strange glow was Singapore I had heard others speak of it but to see it my first city ever to see towers of glass as high as a mountain the sound and lights were overwhelming I forgot about mocha my boat or even what I was doing the sea had once again provided for me while I didn't see the ship that brought mocha here I did see the same symbol as the patch of clothes mocha had torn from her captors wherever she was this symbol was the key to finding her and while I don't like to brag I would like to remind everyone of all my great contributions that I have made over the decades therefore I find it both proper and necessary to reveal the latest statue commemorating my super duper achievements ladies and gentlemen I give you me another statue who does he think he is Apollo not to worry I'll have this down in a bit wait till you see this one it cost over a million dollars oh dear a little help here hey watch out you're coming in too hot wait I've almost got it put the cameras on me this is about me I had no idea what I had just landed in but I could see that whoever the idiot was pulling on the rope he was going to give that poor girl on stage a squishing without thinking I knew I had to get her out of the way [Applause] well hello are you okay I am now the statue I'm at a loss for words right now but it appears that a mysterious pirate girl has just saved Mr chua's daughter like a scene from

an island and the statues Mr chah only had eyes for himself you get used to them not so many inside I had never gotten my picture taken before and had no idea what to do what a lot of nonsense I

press conference in 1 hour to go over the details the sooner we reunite Dewey with her companion the sooner she can return home safely Mr twah seemed really helpful at first but as soon as the door

press conference Alysa now head of chah Enterprises brok her to deal with the village my Island was to become an animal sanctuary plenty of high-paying jobs the animals had a place to live and best of all I had found someone to share my dreams and life with we lived in two different worlds hers was Ultra Modern mine was rather primitive but here our Two Worlds met and it was a place we could all call home hi I'm Ava and I grew up in Hollywood with my mega star mom everywhere she went people loved her and I was the shadow in her life mom was so loved by her fans that we couldn't even eat in peace oh Dora I'm a big fan please can I get a selfie with you sure thank you bye Dora's daughter Dora's daughter that's what everyone called me I didn't mind though because I had my own dreams to be a designer one day I wanted to stay behind the scenes just making beautiful clothes for all the stars mom wanted me to be just like her once when I was in grade 8 while we were in class riding a test the intercom suddenly came on and I was so embarrassed by the announcement good day everyone we premium high would like to say a big congratulations to Ava who has just been accepted in the M team beauty pageant representing the USA her mom came all the way to share the news I started burning a hot rage inside of me how could she enter me into a contest without my consent when I entered our Mansion right after school ready to give Mom a piece of my mind I found a cameraman there and the makeup Lady suddenly rushed up to me to powder my face oh Ava baby you're home are you ready to be famous just like your beloved mother have you completely lost your mind I told told you I don't like being in front of cameras why don't you listen Mom calm down an I'll be right by your side no need to be nervous Fame is in our blood because of all the pressure mom put on me I faked fainting in front of the camera and when I was alone with the doctor I pleaded with him to tell Mom that I was struck with something severe and couldn't participate in the pageant oh dear I had so many hopes and dreams for you but we will not give up I'll make it my duty once you're better to get you a big roll I sometimes wish to just scream my lungs out at her and tell her to leave me the heck alone and then one day something ridiculously Dreadful happened I was out shopping and as I walked out of a store with my shopping assistance carrying my shopping bags a bunch of reporters suddenly jumped in front of us and shoved their cameras in my face hi Ava we've all been wondering how it feels being a spoiled rich brat what did you just say we just want to know what it's like to spend your mommy's money on ugly shoes and even uglier clothes at this point everyone around was laughing hard that's enough you don't know anything about me I tried to walk p pass him but he blocked me and in a fit of rage I pounced on him and we both went down on the sidewalk the sound of clicking cameras then filled the air and I knew I had to get out of there so I got up covered my face and ran towards my car by the time I got home the video of me pouncing on the reporter had gone viral mom was going to be so mad but as soon as I walked into our living room she ran and hugged me you're trending everywhere this is awesome what you're not even mad why would I be mad this publicity stunt you just pulled is going to to get you a movie roll it was not a publicity stunt that repor was so mean and for the last time I don't want a movie roll you know how much I love designing who will ever take you seriously as a designer you are trending online with the worst fashion taste how could you be so cold-hearted I'm deleting all my social media apps and I'll never be a stupid actress like you fine if that's the case you can go live with your father are you serious yes maybe living with your poor father will make you realize how lucky you are to have me you'll come back and when you do you will do as I say mom sounded so evil and I did as she asked I packed my bags and the next day my driver dropped me in my dad's Town mom refused to let me take the car she bought me and I was done needing her I felt out of place with my fancy clothing and suitcase and everyone looked at me like I was an alien hi do you need any help I turned to see a Haggard looking boy my age carrying a cart filled with fruits I'm looking for Mr Tom air do you know him everyone knows Mr Tom suddenly I was excited if my dad was that famous in the town maybe he was the mayor or something okay could you take me to him and please lift my suitcases and put them on your cart and be gentle they limited edition look here your Royal Highness I don't know where you came from but there are no servants here now follow me or keep standing there I'm Imran by the way rude I dragged my suitcases behind him ready to see where my famous dad lived my excitement was however shortlived because a few minutes later Imron led me to a homeless shelter I I don't understand just then a bunch of little kids rushed to him and hugged him before taking the fruits from his cart in the middle of all this an older man approached us hello Mr Tom this is my daughter Ava your mother told me to expect you it's so good to see you all grown honey he tried to hug me but I dodged I had so many questions like why did he leave did he ever miss me but when I opened my mouth what came out was uh are you here to donate because you're a rich man just then a girl stepped forward he runs this shelter for homeless kids and orphans and he also lives here with us dad is a hero he takes care of all of us here right so he was a dad to these kids but he couldn't be bothered to raise me his own flesh and blood I needed answers Ava this is Bella I adopted her when she was 10 I'm Ava cool hair I know who you are you can go record your Tik toks while the rest of us do real work Bella that's not nice you need to make Ava feel at home Bella didn't listen to Dad she was the oldest and she and Dad seemed to have a very close relationship from the first impression so I bet my presence threatened her sorry about that she'll come around you must have a lot of questions let's get you settled then talk I needed to have a conversation with Dad and understand why he left me and came here to look after kids who weren't even his why did you leave Mom and I I didn't want to leave you believe me but after your mom and I separated I didn't have anything to my name didn't know where to go or how to start over your mom was already a rising star and I knew she would make sure you had a good love but why didn't you look for me after you settled down look at me aa all I have is this shelter and these kids and you deserve everything in life I knew I couldn't provide you with that and your mother made sure I was aware of it she said she would sue me if I tried to take you away to suffer I didn't think she would ever let me see you until she called the other day and said you were coming it didn't make me feel better that he had left me but it helped that he had allowed me to find him I'm 18 now so I can make my own decisions the next morning I was startled from my sleep by a flaring noise I sat up and saw Bella standing over my bed holding a loudspeaker rise and shine princess really Bella is the loudspeaker necessary that's how we wake up lazy people around here I'm not lazy says the girl who's never worked a day in her life I was tired of everyone saying that you know what I'm going to prove to you and everyone else that I'm not just a rich spoiled brat I'm going to work at the shelter all day you won't last an hour we'll see I mean how hard could it be since i' missed breakfast Duty dad assigned me cleaning Duty bad idea I was walking towards the kitchen with my hands piled with dirty plates when a kid tripped me and I fell Breaking All the plates great job you managed to break all of them the rest of the day was no better I spilled and broke almost everything I touched as if that wasn't enough the younger kids decided it' be fun to mess with me hey Ava have a cookie I picked a cookie but as soon as I took a bite I realized I'd been tricked they had replaced the cream in between the cookies with toothpaste ew here AA take a sip of coffee to wash up the taste another kid handed me a cup of coffee and I took a huge Gulp and spat it back out the coffee was loaded with salt okay that's it I'm done with that I walked out of the shelter ready to crawl back in bed and cry myself to sleep as I limped across the yard to my dad's house Imran spotted me hey there long morning huh yeah also wrong shoes Imran took one look at my 6-in heels and started to laugh how are you still walking your feet probably hate you right now so does everyone not everyone he stared at me and smiled then he turned his back to me come on I'll carry you what I thought you said I don't have any servants here okay maybe I was a little harsh but your suitcase would have bruised the fruits now hop on as soon as I hopped on his back he took off running and I giggled like a little girl after that Imran and I spent a lot of time working together at the shelter well he did most of the work while I did my best to break anything he told me he'd been homeless for years and my dad's shelter was the best thing that ever happened to him one evening he just dropped me off when Bella barged into my room Imron is a really good person you need to stop dragging him into your drama what are you talking about Bella took out her phone scrolled a little bit and shoved it in my face that's you on imran's back someone took this photo and now it's all over the internet I stared at the photo in disbelief I have no idea who took that photo Bella trust me it doesn't matter most most of the comments are really mean I know you're used to that but Imran isn't you need to stay away from him Bella had a point Imran was really sweet but he wasn't from my world so for the next few days I did my best to avoid him but one morning I walked into the shelter and everyone yelled surprise um what is all this oh wow you forgot your birthday isn't it supposed to be the biggest event of the Year according to you I couldn't believe it I've been so busy at the shelter I forgot my 18th birthday well it was supposed to be a huge event but now I know there are more important things who are you and what have you done with Ava as Bella and I laughed Imron walked in carrying a birthday cake followed by my dad who was carrying a stack of plates happy birthday honey I know I've missed so many but I'm so happy to celebrate this one with you thanks Dad did you bake this cake yes I did Imran and I stared at each other and smiled but we were interrupted when the door burst open and my mom walked in with a shiny dress look everyone it's hello everyone I brought presents go check outside at the mention of presents they all ran outside happy birthday my big baby mom what are you doing here it's your birthday I've never missed that ever since you were born unlike your poor father nice to see you too Dora mom made my party feel so tense and then Imran tried to break the ice and offer Mom some cake but she was so vicious towards him would you like some cake ma'am you're that boy who has been trending on social media with my daughter AA don't tell me that you've fallen for this poor thing hey you can't talk about Imran that way we may not be stinking rich and famous but we have something you will never Humanity says the girl who took the photo and leaked it to the Press I I don't know what you're saying oh darling I am widely connected and I know what happens everywhere especially if it has to do with my daughter I couldn't believe that Bella would stoop so low just to hurt me how could you do that Bella I know you were jealous because I'm my dad's real daughter but I did nothing wrong to you I'm sorry so you see Ava these people can't be trusted your dad has made his choice please don't make the same mistake you're still the cold vindictive woman Ava you can stay here with me as long as you want and just know I always loved you go pack your bags Eva I'll wait for you in the car I was so hurt by Bella's betrayal that I really didn't want to stay anymore but as I was about to roll my bags out she stopped me you were always in his mind he even keeps the only baby picture of you in his wallet your dad loves you so much Ava and I'm so sorry for being a jerk it's okay I forgive you but I have to go my mom is waiting I wish you didn't have to leave you are a good person Ava and I hope you always stay as kind thank you Imran I guess this is goodbye when I went out to the car dad was there and he looked at me sadly are you sure you want to do this Ava yes Dad I need to start a fresh by myself I don't understand by yourself I knocked at the car window where Mom was seated and she rolled her window down can we go now yes you can go now I packed all the designer clothes you bought me in the suitcase I'll call to check on you Ava what are you saying I'm saying that I want to stay here and build my own brand I want to be a designer mom and I will become that one day on my own how your father has no money but I have love and I will support her dreams all the way fine you will regret this Ava driver let's go I was tired of living in Mom's Shadow and with all the motivation and support from the shelter I was determined to make it a year later dad and all the kids helped me organize a fashion show at the shelter and I had all the young ladies wear my designs are you ready for this is there anyone important in the audience well I sent the invite to all the fashion houses and to a few other places okay thank you for all your support ladies are you ready the girls did so well and after the show I felt happy and then suddenly I was approached by a lady hello Miss AA we loved all your designs and we'd like to make you an offer okay which company are you from Louis Vuitton never let anyone Take Your Dreams Away there is always a way to make [Music] it Tammy I don't think this is a good idea what if the nanny gets into trouble relax I've done this a million times it's so funny 911 what's your emergency Tammy was my best friend and she was always doing crazy stuff that got us into trouble girls just because your kids doesn't mean you can get away with making prank calls to the police your parents will pay a big fine please sir we are so sorry we promise never to do it again fine but if this happens again you girls will be in a lot of trouble we are able to trace the calls the puppy dog I trick always worked and saved us almost all the time come on last one inside is a rotten egg hello everyone my name is Nicole and what you just witnessed was only a minor ordeal compared to all the other trouble my best friend Tammy would get us into we were friends ever since we were both in our mom's tummies her mom and my mom were best friends and I was born 2 days after Tammy talk about planning hey I almost forgot please like And subscribe to this channel they have some amazing Stories and this one is mine Tammy this is disgusting what are you still doing out there stinky I have no idea where she gets all her crazy energy from I've always been the chill laidback type more of a bookworm and the quiet girl in the background meanwhile Tenny was Fearless always ready to take on massive risks for the both of us the Cole climb your stinky butt up here you're already up there so you grab the apples I'll stay down here and play it safe just to make sure you don't drag us into any trouble no way you're coming up here it's so awesome it's like a whole new world up here well a roof is not that amazing to see so I'm fine thank you if you don't come up then I'll never come come down then the owner of that Mansion will be home and you will be in a lot of trouble fine Tammy was always so stubborn because I cared about her so much I mustered up the courage and faced my fear of heights you can do it Nicole here take my hand having Tammy around helped me be courageous but as we grew up our differences started drifting us apart Tammy had a deep love for everything related to Nature and she constantly tried to get me to share the same passion Nicole here you hold him he's so cute no thank you I'm not a wildlife person you know that a look how cute and slimy he is no Tammy I said no I was never one with anger issues but I guess Tammy sometimes pressed the wrong buttons in me I enjoyed things like playing the piano Beethoven was my all-time favorite composer and my parents were so proud of the way I turned out my old man was a grease monkey and my mom rocked the mop as a made we lived in a teeny tiny house that used to belong to my late Grandma but let me tell you those two superheroes always found a way to put a smile on my face I had this epic dream of becoming a legendary music composer and then transforming that Humble House into a jaw-dropping mansion for my incredible parents they made sure I had all the happiness in the world so it was my turn to repay them big time Nicole I'm off to work Tammy is coming over for a sleepover again well sweetie Tammy's mom has to work a double shift today so that's why she's sleeping over is something bothering you I thought you enjoyed having Tammy around yeah I do like having Tammy over but sometimes I just want a little me time you know it feels like she's here almost every other day and I need some space to recharge Tammy's dad bailed on her and her mom when she was just 5 years old from then on her mom had to hustle and work as a waitress at a local Diner when we were little having Tammy around was a blast but as we grew up I started feeling like my personal space was being invaded I whipped up some chocolate milkshakes for us M this one looks cute how come I've never seen this one before tamy you messed up my cabinet you know my clothes are always neatly folded chill out it's just clothes it's my clothes if you like keeping your wardrobe in a jungle mess then that's you Nicole calm down I'm putting the shirt back I always try my best to be nice and not get upset but sometimes it's just so hard to always be the nice girl who's okay with everything until one day Tammy pushed things too far we were lying outside on the lawn looking up at the clouds this was our Quiet Moments together and of course Tammy had the most bizarre imaginations oh I see a gigantic baboon with drumsticks and he even has a slimy frog on his head jeez Tammy that's quite a combination I see a big puffy did you see that it's probably a sky diver or a big bird what if it's an alien tamy we're 15 years old we should be way past the alien phas come on let's go see wait I I don't know why I didn't pull back from going with her I guess part of me also wanted to see what it was that suddenly fell from the sky I told you it was a skydiver a very hot one ew you like him we don't even know him let's go before he sees us and obviously Tammy did the opposite hey there handsome boy where are you from huh from the city Philadelphia don't be scared we won't bite my friend here thinks you're cute can we get your number wow I didn't think girls from a small country like this would be so forward I'll give you my number only if I could take both of you out sorry I'm not on the market I was like dying of embarrassment when that boy kept stealing glances at me Timmy seriously had no filter she just kept putting me in these super awkward situations it was like cringe City all the way what's your name by the way I'm Tammy and my beautiful friend there is Nicole you won't find a good girl like her around so better catch her while you can I'm Denver and does your friend have a voice or what it seems like you're the spokesperson for the duo oh sorry about that she's just very shy get over here Nicole come meet your future husband tamy that's enough I'm going home Nicole wait for me I was Fe huming inside and Tammy didn't get the picture Nicole why didn't you wait for me you humiliated me in front of that guy why would you tell him that I liked him because you said he was cute and I think he could like you too I have his number and you can call him Tammy stop you never know when to stop and when a friend tells you a guy is cute you don't do things like this you keep it to yourself and we speak about it in secret that's what normal friends do so I'm not a normal friend to you I don't think you're capable of being normal Tammy you are self-absorbed never listen to anything but your own voice and think you know it all I wished I didn't care so much for her so that I didn't have to feel so bad about what I said but after that day our friendship collapsed over time Tammy stopped visiting our house with her mom and I missed her is Tammy okay yes she met this new guy and she's always out and about but she's happy so I'm happy I'll let her know you asked about her a part of me wished that Tammy would come over and tell me all about her exciting love life but I guess our friendship was truly over and I had myself to blame for that I started to put more focus on my goals completing high school and managed to get a student loan to further my studies in music and while studying I also opened up some extra classes to teach kids from home and then one day when I got home from my studies I found Tammy's mom crying on my mom's shoulders what happened why is she crying Tammy ran away with a boy and she won't answer her phone is there anything I can do if you know of any other way we could reach out to her that would be great I wasn't really into the whole social media scene but I had an Instagram and Facebook account with like a grand total of 10 followers but Tammy oh man she was all about that attention she'd constantly be posting on all her social media accounts soaking up the likes and comments wow so she went after the city boy Denver I didn't like seeing her mom so sad so I had to go find her and bring her back home I had never been to the city before so naturally I was a bit nervous dad offered to come along with me but I knew he had a ton of cars lined up for the week at the shop mom and Tammy's mom were both working on their jobs too so taking time off wasn't an option for them thank you for doing this they know my Tammy has always been on the wild side of life but whenever she was around you she was good I hope you come back with her I will let's hope she listens to me even though we're not that close anymore best friends always find their way back to each other [Music] I did my research using all the Tammy social media information there was this restaurant she and this Denver guy kept taking selfies at so that was my starting point hi can I have a glass of water [Music] please oh I meant from the tap we don't serve tap water here that'll be $5 $5 for water the bartender seemed rude but I have to admit everything about his looks was breathtaking I always had a thing for tall guys and this one was tall and gorgeous you are new around here you look like you stepped out of a farm or something you have a very ugly way of saying things I come from Camden country it's a small country and we like keeping things simple if that's what you call Farm style okay farm girl what are you doing in Philadelphia I'm looking for my friend if that's your friend then I probably shouldn't be talking to you I definitely don't want to get mixed up in any of that mess her boyfriend's family is like notorious for running this city with all their Shady criminal activities I was shocked at what he told me and very worried about Tammy please if my friend is in any trouble I need to know where I can find her I told you I don't want to get involved those people are not to be messed with please her mom is devastated and she's a good person we are good people I glared at him with puppy dog eyes which usually work to convince people okay wait for me after my shift this is my number Kevin thank you I'm Nicole I had to find something to do while waiting for him but after what he told me I couldn't stop thinking about Tammy while waiting for Kevin I thought I would explore the city a little and when I passed a small coffee shop my heart skipped a beat when I saw Timmy through the glass window she looked like she was crying in front of Denver who looked more grown now Tammy Tammy talk to me I never saw Tammy look this sad in her life and this wicked boy taking her away like that made me even more determined to find out more if she was in trouble I was going to save her Kevin thankfully kept to his word and let me ride with him on his scooter to Denver's family house okay so this is where they live and as you can see it's not easy to get in these guys have like heavy security yeah what do we do now uh we the deal was I show you where they lived so here it is goodbye don't do that I didn't do anything my sad puppy dog eyes did it once again and thank goodness Kevin had a conscious it was hard for him to leave me stranded in front of a big wall I'll try to get you in and then my work here is done right right we waited till it was dark and then I had to face my fears once again this wall was the tallest I'd ever seen and Kevin almost fell over the edge trying to pull me up what if they have dogs this family isn't pet friendly but they do have a bunch of bodyguards and cameras so we have to be extra careful eventually when we got over the wall we had to think about how to get past those huge bodyguards maybe there's a way around the back oh yeah why don't we come out from behind this tree and search for the back entrance yeah I'm sure those bodyguards are blind we can't stay here forever hold on look they're going away let's go we took this opportunity to get closer to the mansion trying our best for the cameras not to spot us we managed to get to a back entrance and found a door wow it's open something must be on our side here the entrance through the door took us to a small Dusty basement with lots and lots of boxes at least we made it inside somewhere I have no idea how we're going to get your friend but I know it's very risky I know and thank you for coming all this way with me it's okay now what do we do next the person who opened the door to the basement from inside the Mansion stepped in further like he was looking for something we were freaking out like two fishes about to get caught in a net I've never been so terrified in my life and I've never been this close to a a guy in my life Kevin smelt so good and being in his arms felt even better he's gone I think this was a bad idea we could get into so much trouble relax We're safe for now and you're not alone since we are already in here I think we should take another leap of faith and get into the Mansion yeah are you ready to get locked away in prison for trespassing Kevin and I opened our mouths in shock after we saw all the cash that fell out of one of the boxes all these boxes are filled with money how is that possible no one in the city has this much cash lying around unless it's fake you might be right I got into trouble a few times at the restaurant for not checking the money customers pay with and I'm always so careful this looks real that's what money launderers do they make it look real I watched this movie once and this feels exactly like that movie where this family is unbelievably Rich using fake cash I told you these people were dangerous even the cops let them go Scot free not in my town I'm going to get some proof on sh I hear something I could hear Tammy crying up above us and my heart pounded with rage wishing to go up there and save her from whatever was going on but instead I had a better plan smart girl I just want to go back home please I don't want to do any more crime remember if you don't do this your mom will lose her job and you two will end up on the streets I don't care I'd rather be on the streets than change your fake money to be real Tammy you're making me angry now take this back the night malls are waiting for you you need new clothes and don't think of running my bodyguards will be right behind you Tammy sounded so scared and I had all the proof I needed to put this family away for good your friend is headed out which means they'll open the gates can you run I was never much of an athlete but yeah this is our chance to get out the coast was still clear so Kevin and I hid behind the tree again waiting for the gates to open as soon as the gate opens and we see the car exit we need to run like lightning before the gate closes again I took a deep breath in and prepared my mind to be Superwoman this was a huge risk to take take we had no other choice but to be brave we made it thank you so much I have all the evidence I need to help my friend I'm glad I could assist I guess this is goodbye well it doesn't have to be okay uh we could be friends or more if you want that since we only just met like today I like you I took the courage and decided to be a little bit forward Kevin was a good person and I like him too this is my number call me and maybe we could be more with the evidence I had the police from my small country got the CIA involved and Denver and his family were locked away for a very long time I would like to give thanks for my best friend Nicole if it wasn't for you I wouldn't be here today and I'm grateful and wiser because of you I appreciate you too my friend I was glad to have my friend back and she grew up a lot and we both learned a lesson about trusting just anyone Denver was hot but a Devil in Disguise always analyze the situation before you end up in trouble hello my name is ginger and I'm from New Zealand please like And subscribe I was brought up by two women who I loved but also drove me crazy my mom and her twin sister they loved to party and they had no limits to their fun Mom it's time for school Aunt Jackie fell off the sofa while Mom dragged her way to the kitchen this was the usual Monday after their wild weekends here you go hun here's your lunch I already have my lunch mom I was just getting you up for work I'm taking the school bus today bye I had to grow up pretty fast for my age since Mom was always at her office job and I was left with my childish aunt and the number one rule at home was never to mention the word dad I learned that once when I was around 10 and wanted to know about mine mom how come you never talk about my dad I don't know what happened but Mom started having a panic attack and even broke a glass Ginger don't ever mention the word a dad in this house again okay yeah because I really cared about Mom I never asked again at school some called me miss perfect because I always carried a tissue around to wipe the dust off my seat I was not a clean freak or a neat freak I was just specific about the way I wanted to be my role model was Queen Elizabeth she was a lady of etiquette unlike my mom's twin sister AKA Atif freak she was worse than a barbarian come on cookie I'm going to miss my favorite TV show my name is not cookie auntie and you don't have to Blow Your Horn I'm right here oh just get in Miss Perfect Pants you need to let go and be free sometimes I think I prefer being Miss Perfect Pants than Miss messy face and what's that supposed to mean even though Aunt Jackie was always home the house was a mess all she did was watch TV and at night she would go out and come back early in the morning she said she was going to work but never helped mom with any of the bills and then as I got older I decided to confront mom about Aunt mom Aunt Jackie left the kitchen in a mess again and now she's gone out to her secret job it's okay I'll clean up why is she even living with us she does nothing because she is my sister and we've never been separated don't you care about how I feel Aunt Jackie is so messy and she's always calling me Cookie in front of my friends I hate it we both love you very much Ginger don't you think you're being a tad bit over dramatic obviously mom loved her sister more than me since she never cared about what I wanted I started writing down my goals my first goal was to leave this house right after school study business because I've always wanted to run my own catering business and then travel the world once I was stinking Rich when I was about to go to bed I heard some sounds outside I quickly ran to my window and saw Aunt Jackie dressed like some sort of Catwoman holding up a beautiful painting and then she spoke to the person in front of her a very attractive person might I say I leaned closer to listen carefully this is good but it's still not the one I want I know it's not easy to get our hands on that $5 million Masterpiece yeah with this I can only pay off some of my debit you'll find your half in the bank in the morning thank you until tomorrow yeah I'll call you I couldn't believe my ears my aunt was a thief and what freaking debit was she talking about when she lived off my mom the next morning I dropped so many hint bombs at the kitchen table and even spilled all the syrup on her favorite dress yummy I just love your pancakes sis M me too Mom oh and Mom I found this great painting at the Art Shop I think it would look great on the living room wall H how did you become an art lover I'm trying out different things you guys always tell me to let go and be free well paintings are very expensive how much was the one you saw a couple of million I think I knew you weren't serious now eat up we have to leave H I wonder what's on the news today we don't watch the news in this house remember we only like positive POS Vibes yeah but the news is important sometimes when I switched the news on the headlines were about a missing painting from an up class Art Factory andt Jackie was so Disturbed and this is when she drenched her dress in syrup oh now what you made me do how did I forget it what's up with her maybe she didn't like what she saw on the news or maybe she's the one who stole the painting Jinger you say the craziest things now go get your backpack we're leaving mom never took me seriously and I couldn't just forget what I saw and heard I excused myself to use the bathroom and on the way there I bummed into a guy wearing a hoodie and then suddenly he held my hand and took me outside the school hey let go of me you creep what do you want from me calm down I'm not a criminal I just want to talk if this is your way of asking a girl out then the answer is no weirdo when the boy took off his hoodie I immediately recognized him you're that guy from last night you were in my yard talking to my aunt H so you did see us you're your aunt was right she sent you to me what are you going to do I'll scream relax my name is Kevin and I also go to this school well I never saw you around before I try to keep a low profile whatever you heard or saw you have to keep it to yourself otherwise you and your mom will be in a lot of danger but my mom and I don't steal paintings you and my aunt are the criminal art thieves that's not true we before he could tell me more the school bell rang for after school kids came rushing out and Kevin magically disappeared then I heard aunt's old Jeep Hooter for me when I got in the vehicle I was taking no more lies from her you sent your guy to finish me out Ginger you need to mind your business with this okay now how about some ice cream no Auntie you are going to tell me the truth or else I'm going to the police Aunt Jackie took off so fast that my aunt started racing with the car she wasn't taking me home and that freaked me out even more where are you taking me mom would never forgive you if she doesn't find me home how could you think that I would even try to harm you I basically raised you with your mom but you come on let's go Aunt Jackie really got me feeling emotional when she looked like she was about to cry and then she told me everything while we looked at some paintings you see this piece right here just look at the price wow half a million just for that yes and the name on it is your father's name what get out of here my dad is an artist a fake artist he stole all your mom's paintings while she was still anant with you and the next thing he disappeared and then months later he was one of the most famous artists of the century but I've never seen M Paint anything before painting makes her remember him and then she breaks down so she avoids it by having a party every weekend with me and working in an office why doesn't she just take him to court or something because your mom has always been a very fragile person she lets things go and that's why I'm there to be strong for her I felt terrible for always complaining about Aunt meanwhile all this time she has been our Rock we can go for that ice cream now Aunt Aunt Jackie told me that she started stealing mom's paintings from different art galleries one by one and then one day while she was in one of the museums she found Kevin sleeping inside he was around 14 when she found him okay so Kevin was a street kid yes I found him a good shelter which I paid towards and someone to take care of him this year he followed me to one of my jobs and insisted on helping me so now we're a team but aunt what if he gets caught that would be jail time for both of you you I know it's a risk we have one big dub to complete and then we are done what do you do with all the paintings we have a buyer in the states we ship them off and he buys them I give Kevin a share and the rest I save for a house your mom has always wanted to buy near a lake oh I see well I want to be there to help out for the last job just to be there and make sure no one gets caught you know I'm sorry but you can't it's too dangerous Ginger now that she told me everything I insisted to be there I was extremely scared about it since all my life I've been being so careful about everything when I was at school the next day Kevin held my hand and pulled me aside again hey you can't keep taking me behind trees your aunt told me that you want to join us for the last job please don't you can't tell me what to do Kevin stepped closer to me and I felt Goosebumps all over when I got a closer look at his hazel brown eyes this guy was on fire it can get dangerous I just don't want you to get hurt thank you for caring about me but I'm a big girl and I can handle it have you show me the ropes your aunt was right you are a tough cookie I hate it when she calls me that okay I'll teach you after school so later after school aunt picked both Kevin and I up and took us to a rusty Warehouse where the training started Aunt Jackie took us to an old rusty Warehouse where they had a blueprint copy of the Museum map how on Earth did they manage to get their hands on it I don't know okay so the museum is holding a reveal party of the late Queen Elizabeth's painting we're not stealing that painting are we no just the one that belonged to to your mom the last piece of her artwork is going for more than a million and it's the biggest Museum in the country great I think I can pull this off very well I've always wanted to meet the great Queen Elizabeth but since that can't happen this is like a dream come true because I'll be at her party so you like being all formal and stuff oh Ginger is a very special she eats a cheese sandwich with a fork and knife well I just like being elegant well I eat with my magic fingers and it's Finger Licking Good ew oh okay we'll have to work on that if we're attending a party on behalf of the queen okay and enough chitchat it's time to prepare during my training I had to face my fear of heights and getting into more risky things like swinging and running really fast I was really not the sporty type the fun part was having Kevin there to catch me he was growing on me and I couldn't help myself he was so cute when the day had finally arrived I was so nervous but as we entered the party I knew I could do this but as for Kevin he forgot everything that I showed him he started with taking all the candy from the table flipping it up in the air and catching it in his mouth and there was this old lady with big eyes who looked at him Disturbed Kevin you ate almost all the candy on the table oh I didn't even realize they were so delicious you should try some and then to make things worse the waiter offered him a glass of sparkling water and he slurped the glass like he was a freaking Kimel can I have some more then the old woman who sat next to me leaned over and whispered in my ear if here's your boyfriend then I would say start searching the sea again because your mannerisms are far better than his thank you ma'am he is my friend thank goodness for that I'm the museum owner and I must say I'm very impressed by the way you carry yourself and then Aunt dropped a seriet on the floor that was the first signal she got up and then I excused myself I'm going to use the lady's room oh take these Keys you can use the a premium bathroom closer to the ballroom door thank you that's very kind I quickly left the ballroom area and met anunt outside okay the security seems very tight today I'm not sure how we're going to pull this off well the owner just gave me a bunch of keys to use the premium bathroom are you serious a tag is on the keys wait that tag and take us to the Vault where the million dooll paintings are kept I started freaking out a bit after Aunt Jackie spoke about the tag I mean the old lady liked me how could I just receive her this way then Kevin appeared hey the old woman asked me to check on you the formalities of the unveiling is about to begin okay I should go back not so fast we need those keys but the lady already saw my face what will I tell her if I take too long trust me she won't know a thing now come on we need to get past security Aunt Jackie managed to distract the guards with her charm Kevin and I slid past the guards and ran through a long red carpet in a corridor okay we two from here you can't honestly study the map now now I thought we've been through this yeah well I don't have a photographic memory do you nope okay what does it say we need to look for a side door that leads to the Vault it felt like we were walking for Miles looking for a freaking side door and then we saw two bodyguards and Kevin quickly turned me around to look at a painting on the wall this one looks lovely you are not supposed to be here oh good evening gentlemen I am Veronica all the way from London the owner was kind enough to allow me to look around well she hasn't informed us so let's go please do call her look I even have her keys and we all know she never lets go of these Keys fine we will speak to her downstairs wow that's some good acting well did I tell you I'm a big fan of the queen we should really start finding that door now Kevin and I never gave up on searching for the side door and once we found it we used the access card to get in and there it was the Vault we made it okay do you know which painting we're here for yes it's the $5 million one there it is I was taken back by the painting my mother drew it was the most beautiful picture ever it looked like a baby in a mother's womb she drew me you take the keys and sit back with the owner remember to stay calm like nothing is wrong when I went into the ballroom the old lady looked at me sternly and I was so worried that maybe her bodyguards already spoke to her you took quite some time young lady I couldn't believe how smooth that went so we actually pulled it off we stole mom's painting sold it and Aunt did in fact buy her the lake house she always wanted tell me again sis how did you really buy this house I used your date of birth and played the lottery it was such an easy win well I have a surprise for everyone mom's surprise made us hold our breath she pulled out a painting that looked exactly like the one we stole mom where did you get that from I made it I painted something like this I was pregnant with you and that was taken but I've healed now and I'm ready to continue with what I love oh Mom I'm so happy for you life turned pretty good for all of us Kevin got into a good University to study criminal law I laughed but it was a good move for him and I started my catering business plus furthered my studies can I talk to you for a moment I still felt goosebumps every time Kevin held my hand or like this instance wanted to speak to me alone I wonder what was up I know I'm not not your ideal up class Prince sort of guy but I like you a lot and I like you too and I don't need an up class Prince to make me happy I Feel Complete just being around you of course I would teach him how to use a fork and knife but I think life is perfect with a little bit of imperfect don't you [Music] think oh Isabella you ruined my flowers but you have your own garden at your house of wha so now you're rude and Reckless what are your parents teaching you I hated it whenever my papa's mother a boa Rose visited she was always so controlling and spoiled all my fun Isabella come on it's story time that was my little brother Juan and we were from a small village in Mexico our parents were both awesome archaeologists Juan and I practically grew up on their stories and that's how I fell in love with Adventure don't forget to like And subscribe the Spanish conquistadors wanted the mirror of TZ catly POA from the ancient Aztec people but the Aztecs hid it because it was too dangerous in the hands of humans why it can cross Realms if it falls into the wrong hands it can be misused I'm scared I'll find the mirror and protect you what if monsters crawl out and grab you sometimes they even took us a long on their Adventures onean was the scaredy cat always hiding behind his books while I was The Fearless adventurous one like my parents actually scratch that I was even worse a reckless Daredevil jumping head first into every situation without ever thinking twice H berries that's a poke Berry it's poisonous oops I already swallowed my parents weren't so thrilled about my recklessness and they always made sure to tell me Isabella you need to be more responsible and careful you almost got hurt of course Papa well let's just say I learned my lesson for just about 5 minutes R you to the top no matter what I did they loved me so much and home was fun whenever auua wasn't around when she was she was always arguing with my parents about money the kitchen window has been broken for days it needs to be changed I'll fix it tomorrow it's cranky it has to be changed not fixed just like her things are tight then we work harder to make money you know you still have a choice right you can still use never it's too dangerous what were they talking about as one and I pressed harder against the door it swung open and my parents were glaring at us um we didn't really hear anything right Juan what have I told you about lying Mia fine I'm sorry okay I was just curious don't Eaves drop on us next time we discuss adult things children shouldn't hear fortunately mom and dad weren't really mad at Juan and I that night but in the following days I caught a boa snooping around in Papa's study room a few times where he kept all his research papers oh Isabella I didn't see you there are you looking for something AA just my glasses oops look at the silly thing it was really suspicious and on the day I wanted to tell my parents they received a phone call 1 minute honey you're hurt don't worry Gerald we'll come get you darling Gerald fell from a tree there's no one around him he needs our help okay let me grab the car keys we'll be back Mia take care of one in a Flash they were out of the house hurrying outside the village little did I know that that was the day my life was going to change forever because they never came back Juan and I spent the next few days asking everyone for them and looking everywhere mama papa but unfortunately our efforts didn't pay off and a few days later a boa came over and made us moving with her it was the worst thing ever she came up with a whole list of ridiculous rules that onean and I had to follow no laughing too loud how do you control that you learn it's about time you children understand the word discipline my adventure days also came to an end because we were not allowed anywhere outside the village AA made sure the entire Village was always watching us it was like she didn't even care that Mama and Papa were missing or us going out and searching for them whenever I asked it was always the same answer don't worry they'll be found what if they're not we have to go out of the village and search for them they were captured by some bad men who are also looking for us we can't risk going out how do you know this which bad people mind your business Isabella and stay out of big people problems AA was so unbelievable to make matters worse I noticed that she was meeting a strange fancy man every night who do you think he is maybe that's the cop looking for Mama and Papa H he looks too fancy to be a cop the next day was Dia deos muos you know the day when we dress up like skeletons and celebrate our dead like in that movie Coco y I noticed a boila and the strange man again and followed them of course I blackmailed Juan into tagging along come on what if something gets me on the way like snakes fine I'm coming but if anything happens remember I warned you yeah whatever together we crept behind them all the way to my parents' house what are they doing here only one way to find out we waited for them to go in before we tiptoed in and found them ransacking father's study he said it was here maybe he was lying not possible he and his wife will do anything to see those kids oh my God AA knew where my parents were no wonder she was acting strange as we watched them I suddenly felt the floor move under my feet it was a hidden trapo we opened it and found a journal and a map they belonged to Papa Juan and I didn't waste any time going through them remember that story mom and papa told us about the mirror of tezcat laoka yes it's real they found it I think that's what abua and that man are after this has to be the map to the mirror I bet it can lead us to Mama and Papa We snuck out of the study to our old bedroom and dusted off our trusty backpacks and filled them up with all the clothes and gear we used on our previous adventures with Mama and Papa then crept to the kitchen and got some snacks but on our way to the door AA and her friend bumped into US oh my God we were in so much trouble what are you two doing here uh hi AA we were just looking for a toothbrush I lost it the last time I was here a toothbrush at this time of night suddenly a grappling hook dangled out of Juan's backpack don't tell me you're leaving the village run I grabbed Juan's arm and we raced out of the house right into a dense forest where we came across Bandits that old woman better find that map I can't wait to get paid and me too they're working for AA I have to deal with them what don't even try to do anything crazy but before one could stop me I'd already gotten out a jar of hot sauce for my backpack remember the time you had this uh yes I spent hours in the toilet exactly can't have them chasing us can we I crawled over to the pot of food they had over the fire about to dump it all in but I stepped on a twig suddenly alerting them oops who are you come on think fast Isabella I suddenly came up with an idea how fair you friend I'm a lonely Entertainer just traveling the forest I peeped at one and he looked embarrassed but I didn't care do you think we're joking around of course not how about I take those frowns off your faces with my dance my dance moves were so funny that Juan let out a chuckle and they saw him immediately that's um my singer he sings and I dance matter of fact Juan was a terrible singer one kiss is all it shakes when I noticed that the bandits were distracted I revealed my hot sauce jar and Spilled it at their faces it was funny watching them crash into each other come on let's leave before they come after us Juan and I ran until we reached a stream that was fun fun it was dangerous sometimes I wish you thought things through before doing them scaredy cat come on let's change out of these Juan and I changed into another pair of clothes then I got the map from my bag and we studied it together then ate a few snacks and continued our long journey and boy the things we saw snake this was a bad idea it's too late to turn back now first snakes then an alligator run I wonder what's next just great come on let's keep walking before they see us that night we found a small abandoned Hut where we decided to rest but the next morning a loud sound woke us this trip couldn't get any crazier oh no what are we going to do Sho Jaguar go away I don't think that's going to work great I couldn't see this ending well at all for either of us but suddenly this strong handsome boy jumped out in front of us and jumped on the Jaguar's back like a knight and gave it a shot of something that made it slump it's not dead right no just gave it a shot of tranquilizer are you twoo all right sure thanks man what about you Isabella you're you're I'm really good at catching Jaguars I think I fell in love right there he was so handsome like a fairy tale Prince Charming and so strong I mean look at his biceps I bet they felt like a tree trunk I could picture myself melting like butter in his strong arms are you a magician because whenever I look at you everyone else disappears I'm going to puke I ignored one and clung on to the guy like he was already my man so what's your name Diego are you guys all right your parents sent me what do you mean I'm part of the research team they sent me after you saying something about bad men and an evil ABA luckily I bumped into you here oh my God are they all right can you take us to them they're all right but I lost them wait how do we know you're telling the truth this all right we have a map leading us to them you could tag along what Ma can I see um Isabella can I speak to you for a moment Juan pulled me to the side and he looked really worried don't you think it's weird that he showed up when a Jaguar was about to attack us and now he's asking for the map you're too paranoid he showed us proof I don't trust him and I think I'll hang on to this whatever I trust him much to Juan's disapproval Diego stuck beside us throughout our journey I was happy about it but of course Juan wasn't how did you even learn to do that cool move on the Jaguar I bet you had the coolest martial arts teacher he only tranquilized it in a few days we got to the end of our journey reaching the old Aztec Ruins on the map holy smokes I can't believe leave my eyes I'm standing right where Aztec used to live centuries ago someone pinched me ow not literally ju Diego and I explored the ruins for a while until we found a hidden chamber the paintings are so beautiful suddenly we saw eyes glowing at us from the shadows and huddled against each other scared I have a bad feeling about this they're just back they're everywhere we should get out of here come on we followed Diego out and the next place we found ourselves in was a palace wow hey guys what's this A Sunstone the ancient calendar of the Aztec I wonder what it does I think I saw something like that in Papa's Journal as Juan went through Papa's Journal Diego joined him and it made him mad hey man stay in your lane sorry don't worry you can join me here Diego ah look here it says we need to turn the stone counterclockwise three times then clockwise twice what's happening immediately the altar before us started to part revealing a golden box as soon as it finished the rumbling stopped holy smokes it's the mirror oh my God I can't believe it I bet it can show us where Mom and Dad are as we talked we didn't notice when Diego snuck up behind us and shot tranquilizers into our backs Diego what are you doing the next time we opened our eyes we were tied up Diego was right in front of us smirking with the mirror in his hand Diego I can't believe you betrayed us you shouldn't have trusted me I warned you you're so reckless that's why we're in this mess you never stopped to think about the consequences of your actions or anything it's always about you one's words shocked me and I felt so guilty about everything I'm so sorry Juan I'm so sorry before Juan could say anything abua and the bandits from earlier walked in dragging my parents behind them mama papa kids you shouldn't have come here you let that traitor here he used to work with us until he was paid to betray us H still mad about the fake phone call relax bro it's not over Gerald wait his real name is Gerald like the guy that called you saying he was hurt jeez what else was the guy lying about enough where's the mirror Diego strolled over to abuela and gave her the mirror like he was her minion what do you even need it for Aila I ow Senor G our debt he's paying me millions of dollars for that mirror think of how rich we're about to be don't listen to her the worst thing I ever did was tell you abuella about the mirror no wonder she was always snooping around our house you never listen to me this is why we always argue they started arguing and I used the opportunity to reach into my backpack for the knife I had packed earlier when I noticed they weren't watching I cut my ropes and Juans thank you I'm really sorry for not listening to you ju I'm sorry for yelling at you too you were right I'm too Reckless which is why I need the smart person I know now can you come up with a plan to get us out of here yes now that everyone's watching abua and papa argue go over to the Sunstone and twist it I'll grabb the mirror from ABA I crept over to the Sunstone and twisted it and the ground began rumbling again everyone panicked the building is about to fall one ran over to a boila and snatched the mirror from her hand she tried to fight for it but the ground's rumbling scared her and her men away I've missed you kids your evil AB boila kept you away from us just to bless blackmail your papa her own son I had to tell her where my journal was luckily you got to it first we learned from the best that's my kids come on let's go home we know a secret way Mama and Papa led us out of the ruins through a narrow passageway and we immediately went to the town nearby where we reported abua and her cronies to the cops there getting them arrested after everything we returned home and my parents kept the mirror safe in a place where no one could ever find it we came back to living as one one big family at the end of my adventure I realized that I had learned a valuable lesson the importance of patience and teamwork sure my reckless Tendencies got us into trouble but it was working together with onean that got us out of it oops someone's knocking I believe you have something of mine these tracks are too fresh I need backup at the rear of the store suspect is a Caucasian male mid-20s wearing a dark hoodie didn't think we'd catch you did you hi I'm Dazzle from California I had a tough childhood my dad and mom used to be a happy couple with Dad treating mom like a queen they wanted to live their lives just both of them but when Mom saw her friends having kids she became jealous and insisted on having a child too that child turned out to be me had adored me and quickly adjusted to being a dad but Mom couldn't take that she had to share dad darling my little finger hurts I need a massage oh sorry dear just hold on let Dazzle finish this bottle no I want it now binda you mean I should just deny our baby food for your massage what is wrong with you baby more like a husband snatcher to Mom I was a rival for Dad's attention and she couldn't make sacrifices to take better care of me one day when I was just three mom insisted on going to a party so she had no choice than to take me with her it was on a rooftop and when everyone left she left too forgetting I was there Just One Look Over the Edge of the rooftop had me shaking and crying before Dad burst in and saved me Daddy Dazzle oh my angel I am so sorry Daddy's here now okay but it wasn't okay I started showing signs of acrophobia thanks to that experience first I wouldn't let Dad lift me up or put me on his shoulders anymore then I refused to look out from my bedroom balcony dad covered my balcony with paper but I didn't even want a room upstairs anymore so dad moved my stuff to the room downstairs mom had no remorse and it made dad so mad that one day he couldn't take it anymore is it just me or do you seem not to care that our daughter is now afraid of heights thanks to your carelessness oh let me be I just left her there for 1 hour and she's sulking ignore her and you will see that she will stop the drama ignore her you can't bring a child into the world and not be responsible for her you know what I have had enough of you fawning over that brat like she's the only one in the world choose me or Dazzle dad thought Mom was kidding but the next morning Mom packed her bags and left I was devastated to know that my own mother left because of me dad made sure I didn't have time to miss her after school he would take me to the bank where he worked as a security guard and we would be there till he closed for work this worked well for me because I just loved being around people but it was then I discovered something about myself I had an eye for no noticing things that were out of place and pointing it out why is there mud on his shoe did he step in mud um yeah I guess he did there's a bit of something stuck between your teeth are you eating on duty most of Dad's co-workers soon began calling me Eagle Eye dad didn't find it funny though because it made him feel embarrassed but then something happened that made him embrace my insightfulness fully I was 10 and at the bank as usual when I noticed a guy wearing a very Hefty looking jacket as if he couldn't couldn't feel the sweltering heat good morning sir are you sick why are you wearing that heavy jacket my question got Dad's attention and he caught the man before he could run discovering that he came to prep the bank for a later bank robbery the bank was pleased with Dad for a job well done and even promoted him to becoming the chief of security it was the happiest I had ever seen dad since Mom left and he even threw a party to celebrate I'm telling you it was all thanks to my daughter's Eagle Eye I'm so proud of her well then this daughter of yours should ensure she becomes a detective she would be a good fit and that was how ladies and gentlemen my dream of becoming a crime scene detective was born years flew and by the time I turned 15 I found it increasingly boring to go to dad's office after school hours hey sweet cheeks remember to pack double lunch for when you come over after school dad can I come straight home after school or hang out with my friends I feel like I'm turning into part of the furniture what no way are you tired of being our bank's Eagle Eye already I see my baby is all grown now eh it was obvious dad was disappointed with the development but thankfully he let me be I focused on my studies and with my hard work and high grades I graduated from high school at 16 ready to get into a police academy and that was when chaos ensued one hot night I woke up longing for some cold water so I left to go to the kitchen but on my way I heard someone shuffling upstairs Dad when I didn't get a response my senses went on high alert and I rushed upstairs that was when I saw a figure Dash into my former room hey thief stop I almost caught him but then he rushed out through the balcony and the moment I stepped foot there my fear of heights kicked in and I almost lost my balance but Dad was right there in time Dazzle what's going on I saw someone he jumped through here I my next words were cut off at the sound of police sirens police they must be looking for him dad helped me downstairs and we quickly opened open the door for the officers but instead of asking about the Intruder they started searching our house we have a tip off that you were part of the gang that just robbed the same bank you work at what what are you crazy Tad would never before I could finish one of the policemen came out holding a crumpled black bodysuit with a mask I found it this was part of the uniform the robbers used when I saw the piece of clothing and The Mask the officer held up I deduced that the Intruder was responsible for it this can't be my dad someone was in our house just now dad showed them the balcony the Intruder had torn through but when the police didn't find anyone they wouldn't believe anything we said and just like that the only person that loved me and cared for me was taken away and locked up I was mollified to make the nightmare worse I was informed that I had to go move in with my mom I ignored them until a few days later a social service agent stood at the door to ensure I went to my mom's place so I had no choice but to pack on my way out I spotted an unfamiliar butt Buton on the floor of her home dad doesn't have any outfit with this kind of button it was then that it hit me that the button could be from the outfit the Intruder wor if I could find who the jacket belonged to I could find who snuck into our place and implicated my dad it was the first thing I planned to do when I got to mom's place when I arrived mom didn't bother to hide her displeasure and neither did I hello Mom hello the creature that escaped my womb trust me the feeling is mutual I would also love to be out of your hair as soon as possible possible how I wish it were as soon as possible but unfortunately your father is going to spend many many years in jail as the heinous Thief he is he's innocent I have have what proof something about the way my mom said that made me pause it almost felt like if I dare tell her what I had as proof she would burn it to pieces I asked you what do you know answer me out of nowhere a ball of something bubbly flew and plastered itself against Mom's hand crystallizing it instantly like something from a science fiction movie movie I was instantly cautious my hat Sam you're dead mate but before I could overthink the situation a girl my age appeared and began to free mom I'm sorry ma it just flew out of my hand you useless brat with your useless experiments you think you're some kind of Isaac Newton you will never be hey she already apologized no need for harsh words oh shut it I can't believe I am stuck with two silly girls mom left me there without showing me my room or offering me food and I struggled to hide my disappointment in her lack of change sorry about that my experiments tend to get all over the place wao are you saying that you made that gum stuff I can just imagine the police using that to catch bad guys on the Run phenomenal you really think so thanks I'm Sam by the way you must be Dazzle come we are to share my room Sam was Mom's stepdaughter her dad passed away a few years ago leaving her with mom and boy she was a science freak her room was filled with awesome science projects of All Sorts my mind was blown girl you're a genius we became quick friends when Mom said or did something cruel we would gather behind her back and poke fun at her to our satisfaction it made her so angry to see us act like real sisters and be happy so she tried to smother us with work you will do the dishes even the ones on the rrap please in the whole house the toilet isn't sparkly enough it felt like I would never get the chance to investigate the button I had found but luck was on my side one day Sam and I had just finished cleaning Mom's room when I saw some clothes sticking out from her closet I moved over to pick them up and an icy chill went through me when I saw that it was a jacket that had the exact kind of buttons that I had picked up in my house Sam come over here is this jacket mom's um no strange it belongs to her boyfriend l he wor it't here a few months ago could a few months ago be on a Wednesday night yep W what happened it was a struggle to control the anger that surged through me as I mentally put the pieces together mom's boyfriend whoever he was was the one that snuck into our house for his jacket to be here it was a planned deal between him and Mom later that night when I had overcome the shock of Mom's wickedness I told Sam my suspicions so you think your mom and her boyfriend worked together to put your dad in jail yes Sam please I need your help to gather more evidence against mom and mom must not know about this okay sure where do we [Music] start first I decided to e drop on all her phone conversations and for that Sam was my biggest asset she tapped into Mom's phone so we could listen in on all her conversations we could get in trouble if we got caught you know All is fair in Love and War besides I consider it practice for my my future career as a detective I want to be a scientist to invent something revolutionary but Mom says no listen sister don't ever take anything anything mom tells you to Heart she's just jealous she can't do the Wonders you do I bet she doesn't know the formula for water that Gumball alone is going to take you places it's still in the testing process but thanks no matter how great any of Sam's Works were she never felt confident enough to show the world I wished I could take it up on me to show off her gift but catching mom and her boyfriend was my priority when we had listened in for days without success I had to come up with another strategy phone call is not working I'm going to try to follow her physically instead you mean we it's going to get riskier I don't care I want to help Sam refused to be persuaded otherwise so that evening after Mom announced she was going on a date Sam and I pretended we had gone to bed only to slip out through the back door and into her car soon mom mom hit the road stopping at a fancy restaurant after a solid 20 [Music] minutes great how do we follow her now without being recognized my eyes went to a thrift shop right beside the restaurant and I got an idea moments later Sam and I came out disguised as a couple and entered the restaurant we were lucky enough to find a seat right next to Mom and her boyfriend and I quickly put my phone on record no I will take 60% I put my daughter's father in jail and now I have the burden for caring for her so I deserve more I was the one who took the risk of sneaking into their house I almost broke my leg our undercover Mission came to a screeching halt and we saw a waitress coming towards our table they're going to ask us to order we don't have any money after buying clothes quick hide we shoved ourselves under the table before our car could be blown after some time we came out again but to our horror mom and her boyfriend were gone where did they go I don't know let's check outside we went outside but there was no trace of them that was when I felt the danger of the situation we were in if mom had somehow gotten a hint that we were the ones in Disguise how far could she go to keep our mouths shut I think it's about time we tell the police I need to find somewhere with a better Network okay I'll wait I didn't have to go far to get network and make my call but when I return to where I left Sam Sam Sam where are you all I saw was a piece of paper on the floor that read look up over here dear Dazzle I felt my heart race when I saw mom and her boyfriend holding Sam Up on the Rooftop mom what do you think you're doing you thought you could fool me now this is what will happen you will take your phone smash it to pieces and leave or it was a tough call so what are you going to do there now let her go go home now and don't speak to anybody about this I pretended to leave only to Circle a block and come back I was worried about Sam I couldn't trust that mom would let Sam go just like that the only option was for me to get on the rooftop and though the thought of it alone made me sick I stealed my resolve and began to make my way to the top using the waist shoot look at you Sam nothing in this world will make your friend come here you will always be a loner here's to trying to mess with me I reached the rooftop just in time to catch mom about to do something stupid awesome invention Sam just awesome Dazzle you how did you I thought I just have one question for you Mom why your dad dared to put me in second place I can't forgive that you are the one that packed up and left why did you have me when you were not ready to have kids the police came the evidence of the buttons mom's former history with Dad and our situation when we were found was enough to put Mom behind bars for a long time our story went viral the police academy I had applied for weeks ago sent me an acceptance letter along with a scholarship offer and Sam's sticky balls invention was bought by the government dad was instantly released with heavy compensation and he was more than happy to adopt Sam after mom's conviction considering how Mom ended up I resolved never to do things just because others are doing it going to college getting married having kids this is all serious stuff one needs to think about and be totally prepared to undertake everyone's clock ticks differently when we were little my cop dad used to pick me and my twin sister Morgan up from school after work and one day there was this one event that impacted my life forever all units we have a report of a large snake on a playground near Elm Street Elementary children are trapped and scared proceed with caution sweethearts dad's got to take care of something buckle up please stay calm we'll handle this Morgan honey I need your help in securing the snake can you grab that pole and crate from the maintenance sh de no way it looks gross and I'm scared typical Morgan she only cared about her skin but when I saw how scared everyone looked it unlocked something in me I wanted to be brave just like Dad I'll do it dad now Maddie I need you to use that long pole and guide the snake into here Dad and I saved the day and I realized that I wanted to be a cop just like him and save more lives but having an ex model for a mom made me feel like it wasn't possible come come girls we have a big audition to go to as you can see mom wanted Morgan and I to be models but this was very difficult for me dresses makeup heels all of it I was the resident tomboy but Morgan she was just like Mom perfect and so obsessed with winning I win hey you couldn't even help me of course she quickly became mom's perfect little angel and I tried my best to fit in with them but mom always made me feel like I wasn't doing enough those weren't the heels I asked you to put on they aren't you always forget everything okay maybe I really wasn't doing enough and compared to perfect Morgan I was the forgetful scatter brain but honestly this wasn't where my heart was this was easy easy I love training at the defense club with my dad every week when I had the chance to hang out with his cop friends and learn to kick some serious butt you know how to throw a punch kid you bet you better watch out she might take your job one day I'll agree to that if she can beat my son suddenly this cute boy walked in and I swear I lost all brain function for a second his name was Fred and I'd seen him around before with his headphones on but I was too chicken to make a move Madison here was just bragging about how she can take you down I don't fight girls I couldn't believe the words coming out of the butt Face's mouth just say you're scared well since you're asking for it Fred and I squared each other in an intense battle he was really tough to beat but at the end I won not bad you're good but not that good for just 5 Seconds anyways because before I knew it he had me under him and the way he stared at me filled my stomach with butterflies I told you from there on Fred and I became the best of friends he didn't care about how scattered I looked and always treated me like one of the guys and lucky for me we both had cop dads which made us partners not professionally of course one day we were leaving the defense Club when we found Flyers everywhere become the next International sta model join top models in our moding house sounds pretty serious I bet mom is somewhere getting Morgan prepared for this and I was right mom had Morgan practicing nearly every week with a little rest jeez it's nearly midnight this is what Real Models go through and you wouldn't know anything about it because you prefer to act like a boy the next day at the club Fred and I overheard dad and his Partners discussing a girl connected to the same contest Morgan was gearing up for she said someone tied to the modeling house tried to kidnap her the modeling house yeah what are they even want with her they want to win and they don't want her in it poor girl refused to give her more info because of fear that's something we have to look into the chief already gave the go-ahead to sneak an undercover agent in but how they're all teens in there this was the moment I'd waited for my whole life I can be your undercover agent no listen Dad I'm the same age as most of the girls there I have some experience and Morgan might need me I'm your best Dad pulled me to the side before I could finish honey you're too young for this and it's dangerous but Dad Morgan being there is already bad enough and your mom won't take her out you in there will only make my job harder no matter how hard I tried to convince my dad he wouldn't listen so guess what I did I took matters into my own hands there all done a recommendation letter from a high-ranking fashion icon to get you into the contest chamelia fiz fancy name she lives in Paris there's no chances of you guys bumping into each other awesome Fred and I sent in my application and got it accepted within 2 few days I quickly packed my things for the contest while Mom and Morgan were already out on their way and dad was at work nobody noticed what I was up to pH wait you're not going like that right like what oh my God I totally forgot the makeup the dress you have to help me H you're a lost cause ouch fine just come with me Fred took me to his aunt who owned a salon downtown hey there honey and Y my god did you get thrown out a window about that could did you give her a makeover she has a modeling contest poor girl of course I can she set right to work and it was the most painful one hour of my life but at the end I came out looking really gorgeous you look so beautiful he stared at me like he was mesmerized it made my cheeks Ren thanks I guess Fred and I took an Uber to the modeling house and I took out some mics I'd stolen from my dad here we can talk with these since phones aren't allowed thanks all right wish me luck and when I walked into the house Morgan saw me and she looked mad what do you think you're doing here modeling what else you hate modeling maybe I saw the light before we could continue the supervisor walked in girls please follow me to your rooms we were shown into our rooms and staying just a day with these models made me realize how fitting in wasn't easy I felt like an impostor oh love I don't think you belong here but I didn't let any of that get to me I was here on a mission so I kept my eyes open and my ears sharp for anything for a few days nothing interesting happened until the swimsuit competition I was freaking out when I saw how small the swimwear were can you believe they want us to dress in swimsuits oh come on it can't be that bad you work out every day and you're pretty hot um sorry sir I didn't mean it who's that Madison your dad is here hey honey listen Fred told me everything and I just need you to know we're both both here for you you weren't angry I was but I realized that you're smart and you can do this what about Mom she's not happy about it but she'll come around I love you so much Dad after the call I finally grew some courage and put on the swimsuit little did I know how much of a disaster the competition was about to [Music] be what's happening in the darkness I could feel something dripping on me when the lights came on we were all covered in paint everywhere was in total chaos but I was quick to notice that Morgan was missing no no no I wasn't going to let my sister be a missing girl in the news I left the stage and searched around for her and finally found her alone in her room there you are I was worried when I didn't see you on stage didn't realize I needed your permission to change out of my pain stained bikini why do you have to be so mean all the time because it's fun at least I was glad to know that Morgan was okay even if she was being a witch later I went back to the stage to see if I could find any anything on the sabur when I bumped into Fred backstage jeez you look like a uh you look really pretty Madison even with the paint yeah wait was he blushing I was pretty sure I was blushing too I could feel that Fred had a crush on me but it felt too early to ask so um wanted to check on how you were your dad is pretty concerned too I'm okay just frustrated that I have no leads on the person behind everything you're smart I'm sure you'll find something after talking for a while Fred and I went our separate ways and the next day the supervisor talked to us about the sabotage girls I'm sorry about what happened yesterday the cops have assured us that they're investigating and nothing like this will happen again yeah right at least Her speech lowered the tension in the house but in the next few days I spent my time conducting a mini investigation around the house and one night I found a shadow in the dressing room with a pair of scissors about to snip some dresses but they noticed me and bolted so I gave Chase hurdling through the Halls until we reached the kitchen where I caught them I turned on my flashlight and was shocked to find my sister staring at me Morgan you're the sabur great observation Sherlock but why why do you think I have a reputation to maintain you're doing all these just to win wait were you responsible for that girl who almost got kidnapped too it's none of your business you better talk or I'll report you to the supervisor go ahead you don't have any proof now please get off finding out that Morgan was the sabur was the worst highlight of my night so I spoke to Fred do you think we should tell your dad not yet I can't dump something like that on him yet it'll be devastating I agree so what should we do I'll have to find dirt on Morgan the next day with the model's talent show and I was so distracted by last night that I hadn't even prepared for it and now ladies and gentlemen we welcome the next presenter Madison up on stage hi everyone my talent is um singing I sang A Lot in Middle School row row row your boat gently down the stream merily well that was embarrassing but after my turn I saw that the models were distracted so I crept back to the house and snooped around Morgan's room I found a box filled with receipts for hair pins Sonic devices a remote and then the actual stuff is this the Sonic device I better be sure maybe this remote controls it ow gosh what was Morgan planning to do with all these I was still trying to figure it out when I heard some loud noise in the distance and quickly put our things back together and slipped out of the room before anyone could see me in the next few days it was already the final modeling contest and I could tell that Morgan was up to something with the way she was acting backstage she was gifting a few girls the hair pins just a little good luck charm from me to you Chloe a it's so beautiful thanks Morgan when no one was watching I slipped the hair pin from one of the models's hair and looked at it that was when I saw it a little Sonic device taped carefully to it before I could warn everyone we were all filing onto the stage to listen to The Host announced the winner of the contest I couldn't do anything without interrupting the event so I spoke to Fred Fred she implanted Sonic devices on the contestants code red your dad and I will be backstage soon Fred and dad were taking their time and Madison could press the remote at any time I had to do something I started to approach the stage but suddenly two men showed up behind me and Gra dag me away from the stage to the backstage hey leave me alone so you're the kid who used my name to lie who are you really Madison this is Mrs Camila Feliz the woman in your recommendation letter I invited her here and apparently she doesn't know you great just great I totally forgotten about the recommendation letter listen I'm sorry but I can explain please take the little criminal away her men took me away and kept me with them backstage but luckily Fred and dad came to my house what's going on here none of your business kid that's my daughter you've got there and I'm a cop I could arrest you for holding her against her will the men let me go and I hurried back to the Stage Morgan was holding the remote control and standing with the two models at the front who were the final contestants The Winner was about to be announced but I had to act fast I lunged onto the stage and tried to grab the hair pins from the girl's hair what are you doing you creep but they thought I was attacking them I went for Morgan next and pushed the remote control from her hands when she tried to pick it up dad showed up and arrested her the entire event got cancelled I am so sorry I only wanted to win and impress everyone especially Mom oh honey I realized that I must have put a lot of pressure on you but you didn't have to do this I still can't believe you had a hand in almost kidnapping that girl I only threatened her I swear nothing else that doesn't make it any better no wonder she refused to say anything she knew that I was your dad please I'm so sorry I didn't mean to the police took her away and then Fred appeared beside me I'm sorry about her she'll learn her lesson dad says she'll get lesser punishment because she's a minor that's a good thing so I've been um meaning to ask you out on a date do you like me Fred because if you do I do too really I drew Fred in for a kiss and kissing him felt like the best feeling ever until someone interrupted us um I hope I'm not interrupting much you know girl I thought you were a fraud but you proved me wrong tonight for this I am granting you a scholarship sometimes in life being a hero doesn't mean putting on a cake it can be as simple as doing the right thing and standing up for what you believe in so let's all strive to be true to ourselves and not do anything criminal Carla Cara hi I'm Tesla from from Brazil until recently just your average girl going to school having a pretty good life until the dream started I was born with a really strange birth mark on my neck and from childhood I was taught to feel shame about it my parents who are carpenters made sure I covered it with neck scarves or turtlenecks whenever I left the house I've picked out your outfit for today love another turtleneck it's summer mom the weather is hot can I wear a tank top no dear we can't have the mark on your next show but why look at it dear it's so ugly don't you think people will run from you if they see it we are the only ones who love you with the mark no one else will thanks to them I was always self-conscious when I was outside I didn't want to make friends so no one could get close enough to see my mark the only time I threw caution to the wind was when I was close to water no matter where we were if I saw a body of water be it a bathtub or the Atlantic Ocean if it was big enough for me in seconds I would be swimming in it I just couldn't resist the a full of water when I turned 10 mom and dad took me to a fancy dinner to celebrate their anniversary and while they were eating I crept away from the table and climbed into the giant aquarium my parents didn't even notice I was having so much fun until some bratty kid sold me out mom look a real mermaid Tesla in seconds the security pulled me out my parents rushed me home they told me I ruined their anniversary Tesla this is becoming too much were you a fish or something in your former life I don't know about being a fish but I want to be the most popular swimmer in the world better than Kate Ley how about you become a carpenter like us and give up this fantasy uh-uh I was really strong-headed So eventually my parents had no choice but to support my dreams they got me an inflatable pool that I could do all sorts of Strokes in and even let me participate in local swimming competitions but when I turned 13 something happened that turned my love for water into a phobia for it we traveled to Dad's rural Hometown for Christmas and as a treat dad took me to their local Lake stay close Tesla swim in the shallow side the shallow side is for amateur's dad I ignored dad's instruction and drove right into the deep side I thought I was such a great swimmer but I was the amateur that day suddenly my legs cramped and I couldn't move help somebody no one seemed to hear me and the water was pulling me under quickly that's when it happened I couldn't tell if it was a vision or a memory but the lake suddenly became a stormy ocean and I saw a ship being Carried Away by strong waves and a woman was shouting from the ship there was something about her Carla I closed my eyes and saw a woman with Sandy brown hair just like mine Carla Tesla when I opened my eyes again I was on the beach with Dad and several people around me Tesla oh thank God I thought I lost you that experience changed my life every night after then the vision I had seen would always Replay in my head at night it got so bad that the sight of anything related to swimming like my swim trunks made me jump even bathing became scary my head was filled with questions who was Carla and why did the ship I saw have the same mark on my neck what was going on with me I needed answers and my parents seemed like the best place to start I approached them one day in our backyard mom dad have I ever been on a ship before to my surprise they got the strangest looks mom even looked like she wanted to faint uh of course not why do you ask ever since I nearly drowned I've been having these strange dreams there's a ship and someone screaming a name um it must be the shock from your experience love or it could be your body's way of overcoming your obsession with swimming go back inside and I'll make you a nice lunch what they said made sense to me back then I just wanted the Visions to stop they kept playing over and over like a broken record I decided to abandon my swimming career and began to learn my parents business every day after school I dove into how to cure wood cut paint sand I felt like I was really becoming a carpenter keep your wrist like this so you get just the perfect arch like this great you're a natural at this Tesla although learning my parents' trade gradually made those horrible flashes in my head stop it was also increasingly dull since I was too scared to swim again I tried to force myself to be happy I should have known it would never work a year later my parents hit the a jackpot in their career and transferred me to an elite school as usual I stayed away from everyone please don't sit at my table please don't sit at my table but there was one person who didn't get the hint so Tesla why do you always cover your neck do you have like a secret vampire bite for the h hundredth time no why do you like to be alone do you smell bad don't smell bad to me her name was Adriana and on the swim team ever since I defended her from some mean jerks picking on her for being here on a scholarship she became like my second Shadow a very noisy Shadow when I whined to Mom about Adriana's clinginess she's like a 5-year-old that ate too much sugar just make sure she doesn't get too close remember never trust anyone I was determined to do just that but Adriana did something really sweet that broke my shell it was raining after school one day and I was so afraid of having my nightmares come back I refused to leave I couldn't stay I couldn't go home I didn't know what to do that was when Adriana appeared and gave me your umbrella don't don't you need it looks like you need it more than me don't worry it's been a while since I played in the rain come on it's fun she gave up her umbrella for my sake from that day forward she was no longer clingy Adriana but my night in shining armor we became close friends after that and one day I even invited her to my house that was a big mistake wao your house is so big thanks but don't touch anything as if she was de she picked up something that tugged at my heart hey a swimming medal for you you're a swimmer I used to be W no wonder I was drawn to you from our first meeting we have kindered Spirit why did you stop I told Adriana everything about the dreams that made me hate being in the water and she was so sympathetic but you missed swimming right it used to make you very happy the truth is yes a lot well instead of running from your fears why don't you face them how I can't fight a nightmare no but you can fight the fear of Water by getting into water that's crazy trust me expose yourself to what makes you most afraid and you won't be afraid of it anymore at that moment my parents chose to come in and boy did they look like wild bulls you brought someone into this house what part of trust no one did you not understand and there's no way you're going back to swimming trust me all those nightmares would just come back for Force you leave our house this moment before I could think I grabbed Adriana's hand don't talk to Adriana like that she's harmless Adriana huh isn't she the girl you said he like a 5-year-old that ate too much sugar I wanted the ground to open and swallow me when Mom said that and Adriana turned to me with tears in her eyes you said that about me Adriana I have to go now my parents and I had a big fight after Adriana left to make things worse Adriana wouldn't pick up my call so I could explain and apologize to her but I refused to give up it was days later when I got an opportunity to talk to her the next day our school went for a fun tour in a rural Village while we were crossing the bridge I tried to talk to Adriana again Adriana I'm sorry about my parents can we go back don't talk to me she turned away before I could finish and I was so annoyed Adriana if you just listen Adriana I tried to catch her but it was too late we all looked helplessly as she entered the Freez in water we all panicked but no one was willing to jump in and save her our tour guides were busy calling rescue divers to come and save her I knew it might be too late by the time the divers would come so I stood on the bridge took a deep breath and tried not to freak out my desire to save Adriana outweighed my phobia besides it was my fault she was in there she was my responsibility the current was so strong and I wanted to puke with how scared I was but for Adriana's sake I fought hard and caught her just in time to get us to safety Adriana eyes were wide open when I got to the beach and she had a huge smirk on her face gotcha now everyone knows we have a mermaid on land Adriana you're wait this was a deliberate act just wanted to know if I should really forgive you or not you're crazy that was so risky Adriana what I said to my mom then was way before we became friends hey it's cool you jumped in after me of course I forgive you so how did it feel to be back in the water I couldn't even remember if if I was in water or flying in air all that mattered was saving you that day everyone expressed amazement at my skill and bravery some had even taken videos of the incident and posted it online when the rescue divers finally arrived you can't imagine how happy I was to see Matt makon a popular swimmer and now swim coach amongst them he walked up to me I've already watched your video you were like a freaking dolphin in there ever considered swimming for the Olympics actually that used to be my dream it should be your reality you're good I'm coaching for the Olympics now you could easily beat Kate Ley would you like to be part of it seeing Adriana and Matt expressed strong confidence in me was all I needed to reignite my passion for swimming and so with all my heart I said yes I would like that Adriana and I got a ride home and I was so happy with how everything turned out that I forgot something very important wao you're showing your neck for the first time is that a moon mark my was still off and now everyone had seen my neck don't look it's ugly are you kidding me lar is like a work of art really are you blind look at it I looked at the Mark in the window and for the first time I didn't feel disgusted Adriana was right it wasn't ugly it was beautiful for the first time in my life I was no longer ashamed are you okay I am now thanks to you when I got home my parents weren't back yet they had gone on a business trip I was not relishing their drama about my birthmark being outed however nothing in the world could prepare me for the shock that came the next day I thought maybe my parents had forgotten their keys but nope a grinning Adriana was at the door with dozens of reporters in wait good morning Tesla these news people asked me to show them the mermaid in human form that saved my life AKA you I barely had time to react as the reporters started asking me a million questions at a go and just then my parents showed up what's going on here how dare you people F our daughter it's okay your daughter's a hero Adriana showed my parents the video of me saving her life but instead of congratulating me on my bravery and skills they shoved me inside and went off on me what kind of child are you not only did you get into water you uncovered your neck for the whole world to see now we have to leave here before everyone starts treating you badly for it are you for real I was saving my friend's life and you know what my Mark is a part of me and I refuse to be ashamed of it anymore thanks to your carelessness that dream will come to haunt you for the rest of your life people will make fun of you your life will be a nightmare now I'm not afraid of nightmares anymore next week I will be joining a swim team I won't let it or you two stop me from doing what I love this ends now we're leaving my parents were acting like they had lost some nuts and I was fuming with anger at them where are you taking me told you we're leaving now through the backyard officially my parents had lost their mind but just as we got out the backyard we were met with the unexpected the police had our house surrounded reporters had moved from the front to the back and were capturing the whole thing I was in shock on your knees now hands in the air let the captive go I thought what captive was there someone else in the house and then I saw her the woman from my dreams to my shock mom and dad went down on their knees like common criminals it turns out that the captive was me my Dre lady hugged me with tears in her eyes my Carla it's really you um my name is Tesla but I think I know you your name is Carla I gave it to you when you were born these thieves are not your parents I am your real mom 12 years ago when you were just 3 years old we were traveling by ship when we got hit by a storm you were only three and got carried away by the waves I did my best to find you but these criminals did their best to hide you you the woman's Story made my head spin and at the same time something told me it was nothing but the truth so the dream I used to have was actually a memory no that that can't be Mom Dad she's lying right she's right Tesla for 10 years your mother and I had no child one day we went for a picnic beside the river in my hometown and Found

it too every royalty in our tribe has it royalty so this is why you made me hide it so I wouldn't be recognized and found by her everything's a lie even my name my feelings ranged from shock to disbelief and mostly anger at my parents scratch that fake parents selfishness all these years you told me I shouldn't Trust anyone when you're the ones who shouldn't be trusted take them away officers it broke my heart to see the people I had known as my parents taken away but they had to face the consequences for their actions days later I was on my way home with my real mom I had so many

Angeles I was born to a stinking Rich mom who spoiled me rotten mom was the CEO of the biggest automobile company in the world sometimes mom would take me to her company and show me all her new model cars and I always felt so proud to be her daughter and one day by accident I asked her the wrong question and she freaked out on me wow Mom I'm so proud of you I wish dad was here to see how great you are your dad why would you even mention him he left us before you were even born did he contact you no Mom calm down I was just don't ever mention your dad again it was my first time seeing mom so mad at me I hated disappointing her I worked extra hard to make Mom proud my best friend Mel who was born a genius helped me score an A+ on all my tests Violet no that's not how you work out that equation I don't know why I always struggle with divisions I don't know why I would do without you Mel I don't know what I would do without you too Violet muel was cute and sometimes I'd feel all fuzzy when he looked at me but he never showed any signs of liking me more than a friend and I didn't want to spoil anything by telling him how I really felt Mel and I were really close since he also lived next door to us his parents were always away at work and he was usually very lonely at home with his nny so he used to come over for dinner and Mom grew fond of him because he was a computer genius when we were around 18 mom hired Mel and I as intern in her company and the more time we spent with each other the more I started falling for him until one day I decided to tell him how I felt on my birthday happy birthday best friend make a wish I wish that Mel my best friend would ask me out on a date because I really really like him he looked at me surprised like it was his birthday wow I really really like you too after that day Mel and I were inseparable I was so happy and when I was about to share my love life with Mom I found the maids dragging big suitcases behind her out of my way honey I can't miss my flight oh um I just wanted to share some big news with you when I'm back Violet I have a philanthropic mission in Uganda Mel kept me company while Mom was away and one day while we were watching SDA someone from the office called Mel and asked us to turn on the news we apologize for interrupting your day but we have some important news today there was a volcanic eruption in Uganda and word has reached us that the American American citizens who were there on a philanthropic Mission are missing dread filled my entire body and I jerked up in the bed my mom is on that mission babe calm down she's a smart woman she'll be safe but I couldn't calm down I paniced called everyone I knew for the whereabouts of Mom hello hello Miss do you have any info on my mom now they all told me the same thing I'm sorry Violet but I have nothing on your mom yet I watched the news daily expecting some change and was left disappointed everyone on the philanthropic Mission has been found except for Deborah Watson CEO of Watson automobiles for a Year Mom didn't return and it left me quite devastated but Mel was always there to comfort me I hope mom is found I can't lose her like I lost Dad I'll have nobody you have me Violet and I'll never leave your side babe and I'm sure your mom will be found oh Mel what would I ever do without you and then one day I got an unexpected visit from an old man I'd never seen before hello Violet I'm Mr Gregory your mom's lawyer in case of an event like this your mom has prepared a will a will does that mean mom is gone forever my voice shook as I asked I couldn't bear to hear the worst no we're still hoping she'll be found in the meantime the company needs control and that will be split amongst a children wait what children what do you mean children I'm my mom's only child he just gave me a small smile and stared at the door as two girls I didn't no walked into the room welcome yasine and Stacy please sit they sat on the couch like the house belonged to them and it made me so mad I could feel smoke popping out of my ears your mom wants to split her inheritance amongst the three of you but she's attached a condition to it you three must live together and get along for a year a year I think there's been a mistake Mr Gregory I'm my mom's only child and I've never seen these girls maybe that will is fake the taller one Yasmin turned to me with anger in her eyes uh-uh looks like you don't know Mommy that well I stared her down and electricity jolted between her eyes wa I know my mom better than anyone and if she had other kids she'd tell me that's how I know you're imposters oh Violet don't be rude this is your mom's wish I'll take my leave now and we'll be back in a week or two to check on you three behave yourselves we'll be good bye Mr Gregory as soon as Mr Gregory left the girls faced me with evil GR listen you spoiled brat yasine and I aren't going anywhere we're going to get that inheritance all for ourselves and make sure you get none we'll drive you crazy you think you can just prance into my house and scare me I'll expose you for the heartless frauds you are game on don't cry too much they left the room with evil laughs that resonated behind them living with yasine and Stacy was torture once when I was running late to school they ripped most of the clothes in my closet and I had no choice but to wear one of the damaged dresses another time they both spilled colorful paint all over my car and I went berserk what is wrong with you two just giving it a new look maybe you are the ones in need of a new look I grabbed a paint bucket and Spilled its contents all over them and then we had a massive paint fight having Yasmin and Stacy at my house messed with my head and I only had Mel to confide in he gave me so many silly ideas that made me laugh and took my mind away from everything for a moment you could put a hippopo us in their room a hippopotamus or I could use my super hacker skills to find dirt on them wait a minute that could work do it Mel got on his laptop and set to work his finger has tapped rapidly at the keyboard like a freaking robot and after some minutes he looked up at me with a happy glint in his eyes Bingo apparently your sisters used to live in a small town in Mexico and guess what they were well-known thieves he showed me the laptop screen and on it was boldly plastered the mug shots of Yasmin and Stacy oh my God I knew they were lying can you find anything on their family background maybe parents or something nope that info was confidential well it didn't matter I already had enough information that would lead me to their background the next day I packed up a little bag and traveled to Mexico without telling anyone as soon as I arrived I was able to track down Yasmin and Stacy's house it was an old worn out building I knocked and a scraggly grown man opened the door tentatively he hid behind the door like he was hiding from someone who are you the IRS the feds what do you want um no sir he had a bad stench oozing off of him I had no choice but to hold my breath I'm Violet Watson and I'm carrying out an investigation on suddenly the man hugged me and I held myself from puking all over his clothes violet oh honey I haven't seen you in a long time I've missed you so so much being away from you for years has been so difficult I'm sorry sorry but do I know you I'm your father what no way I don't believe you if you are why did you leave Mom and I alone for years I'll explain everything to you honey just come in I went in and he took a look outside before he shut the door behind me holy freaks his house looked like a freaking bulldozzer ran through it sorry about the mess I'm doing some experiments did your mom tell you we used to own the company together what no well we used to until she grew greedy and kicked me out she became harsh and car was towards everyone around her even her family I had to get custody of Yasmin and Stacy and leave your mother since it was hurting them so terribly so Stacy and Yasmin are truly my sisters of course your mother was pregnant with you then and when you were born she wouldn't let me see you the way he spoke about mom she sounded like a really terrible person had Yasmin been right did I really know my mom how do I know you're telling the truth I have some old photos wait here Dad disappeared and returned with a a photo book we scrolled through it together and I found old pictures of my mom posing with yasine and Stacy yet I was still finding it hard to believe mom and I were thick as thieves why would she lie to me I wished I could talk to her and ask her I need a moment this is all hard to take in take your time later that evening dad wanted to take me out to get food but as soon as we got in the car something happened can you drive honey yeah cool you drive he tossed the car keys at me and got into the car sweet as soon as I started the car Dad fro when he saw another car enter the yard with tinted windows oh God those are dangerous men Drive Away Violet I hit the pedal and hard reversed and sped away but the car started tailing us so I drove faster until we lost them wa honey who taught you to drive like that it's no big deal I learned a bit with the cars at Mom's company dad was so impressed with my driving he wouldn't shut up about it and the next morning he made a big announcement honey guess what I signed you up for a car race you'll be a beast at it I wasn't sure how I felt about about Dad's announcement but I figured I'd give it a shot it only meant longer staying in his stinky house but it was also a welcome distraction from everything the following day Dad and I showed up at the racetrack on your marks and set go I stopped on my accelerator and raced against the other cars and in a few minutes the race ended with me as the winner I was about to be awarded a huge sum of money when dad showed up and snatched it thank you thank you she's my daughter um yeah Dad threw a mini celebration for me that night and in the days that followed we visited a lot of places and had so much fun I couldn't believe mom had deprived me of all of this he kept signing me up for more races and I kept winning them all but he always took the money I won it wasn't like I needed it anyways he needed it more than I did one day while I was gearing up for another race I received a call from an unknown number hello Miss Violet this is the security officer from your mother's company something bad has happened my heart skipped a beat and I prayed it wasn't more bad news about Mom I was still harboring hopes for her return and wasn't ready to lose her this morning we received several withdrawals of millions of dollars from our company's accounts to an untraceable account we require your urgent attention dad noticed the look of shock on my face honey is anything the matter I can't do the race today dad what why we plan so much for this maybe next time but right now the company needs my help I wanted to walk away when Dad suddenly held my arm and looked at me with plea in his eyes please just one more game honey you can't just leave everything for the first time I noticed how pitiful dad looked regrettably I withdrew my arm from his grasp and ran to the guest room to pack up my things in a few hours I was back home and the first place I headed to was the company on my way I bummed into Mel Violet I'm so glad you're safe safe what are you suddenly his happy look changed into a sad one I did something terrible to save you Violet but rest assured whoever that monster that took you is I'm tracing his location I'll find him I had no idea what he was talking about I don't understand what did you do muel he couldn't even look at me in the eyes I was the one who hacked into the company's accounts but I did it to save you yasine and Stacy cried and distressed over you being abducted I tried your number but it never went through holy cow those two brats lied to my poor boyfriend enough was enough the abductor was requesting for a lot of money none of us had so I hacked into the company's accounts to get the money and save you I'll teach the those girls a lesson for taking advantage of your love for me in anger I stormed home and was greeted by an unexpected sight yasine and Stacy were throwing a party in the Mansion anger clouded my mind as I grabbed a glass of drink from a table and walked over to the wires and Spilled the drink all over it the music went off instantly and everyone groaned get out of my house what do you two think you're up to they avoided my eyes like guilty children that have been caught doing something bad um you're back so soon violet we thought you went on a vacation so we didn't expect you to return so early you'd like that huh so you can continue to steal more money from my mom it's not stealing if it's yours you two lied to my boyfriend stole millions of dollars from the company tortured me and you still think you deserve anything here I understand that my mom left you but it's no excuse for being terrible people suddenly Stacy broke down into tears but I was too mad to care I want you two to pack up your bags and leave this house this instant a voice sounded behind interrupting us moms that's enough I turned around to stare at her and she looked nothing like someone who had gone missing for a year in fact she looked like she just came out of a spa and that was when it dawned on me I assume you lied about going missing just like you've been lying about everything else honey I did but you have to understand why I'm listening it was all because of your dad he lied and gambled away all the company's money I had no choice but to kick him out then he lied in court that I was a bad mom and I was obsessed with with the company then he stole custody of my kids from me he wouldn't let me see my baby girls for years suddenly dad's strange behavior of fixing my races and keeping my wins from each of them started to make sense we weren't the ones who stole money from the company Violet yasine confessed and it left me in shock if you weren't the ones then who did it was Dad he made us steal for him he always makes a steal for him he told us he'd keep you longer in the house to give us enough time to escape but he didn't I'm sorry for being so hard on on you to and I'm sorry for not fighting harder for you two I'm so sorry I was happy to have two sisters the more the merrier I guess hey don't forget me hello there I'm Inga and I belong to a family of somi Nomads in Europe growing up I was a really pretty kid I had Flawless skin long dark hair and eyes of different colors everyone who saw me used to say I was blessed by the gods and every guy wanted me here are roses my beautiful angel I made you a trinket from diamonds but they had no idea I had been born with a special condition come join us in the pool LGA oh no I'm fine are you sure the pool is nice and cold here feel it he suddenly splashed them on me and my skin broke out in a rash I had to run off before anyone could see it as soon as I got into the lava which is what we call our tents mom wrapped some clothes around my rashes this was the special condition I was talking about my skin broke out into rashes every time I touched cold water and it made me feel so uncomfortable I don't understand understand why this always happens it's nothing honey don't let it bother you while we talked dad suddenly burst into the room panicking darling you and Enga should pack up your things immediately we've been attacked by foreigners in their big machines I peeped through a tear in the lava and it was true there were monstrous machines destroying our lands like they were nothing then I saw the figure of a kid holding hands with an adult who seemed to be controlling everything destroy it all gosh it made me really angry we should fight them it's our land we don't have the men for that now Inga dad grabbed me and Mom and we escaped and since then my family never really stayed for long in one spot we had to always migrate from one settlement to another to another to avoid Invaders and find better pasture for our reindeers because of this none of my friendships with anyone ever lasted all my friends came and went like the seasons and I wish that I could have just one friend who'd stayed by my side forever but it felt like the most impossible wish or at least I thought so until I heard a cry in the woods one day while I was packing some herbs for dinner someone help me I mounted my horse and galloped all the way to the sound of the voice when I reached the voice I found a boy my age stuck in some branches and helped him out are you okay yes I think so I'm Logan you look like a very pretty angel thank you I'm Inga that's not a really popular name well it's probably because you're not from around here you're right I'm American and I'm camping with my older sister here for a project she's a historian I sat beside Logan and we spent the entire afternoon talking when it started to get dark I walked in back to his tent and that was when I met his sister but she wasn't what I expected Where Have You Been um hi Holly I was just um looking around this is my friend Inga hi Holly I'm but Holly didn't even look at me instead she faced Logan with fire blazing in her eyes you've been talking to a girl do you have any idea how long I've been searching for you we were just shut up I wasn't talking to you stay out of this I expected Logan to say something but he just stayed quiet and watched while his sister screamed at him it made me super uncomfortable but I decided that maybe she was just really worried about her brother go inside the tent now I'll deal with you later and you go back to where you belong I had no idea why she was so mean but I waved Logan goodbye and rushed back to the lava before Dad and Mom could notice I was missing the next day I returned to the location where I first met Logan with the hopes of running into him so we could talk about yesterday thankfully I spotted him but he didn't seem that excited to see me engga what are you doing here I was wondering about your sister why did you let her scream that way at you it's none of your business Logan said in the meanest voice he could muster and it made me feel so bad I thought we had connected why was he mean to me all of a sudden I'm sorry for asking I was just concerned maybe I should leave I'm sorry angga I shouldn't have spoken that way to you please forgive me I smiled and sat back beside him about Holly the truth is she isn't always like that she's just super protective because she doesn't want to lose me too like her parents who passed away it's been difficult on the both of us I understand I have super protective parents I have to always sneak around them to do what I want Inga you shouldn't talk to strangers they're dangerous B don't go out Logan laughed and I joined in while we talked we suddenly heard heavy footsteps approaching that sounds like it's Holly quickly hide I quickly jumped into some bushes before Holly could find us together ahw there you are I watched as she approached him and suddenly leaned over to sniff him like a dog were you with someone just now no I wasn't I don't believe you is that a strand of dark hair on your shirt goodness how would she spotted something so tiny she picked off a strand of long dark hair from Logan's shirt and it was mine I don't know how that got there liar it's that girl from yesterday right you were with her she pulled Logan's ear and I had the urge to jump out of the bush an attacker but Logan looked at me and shook his head mouthing don't from now on I no longer want to see you around that girl her people are barbarians and dangerous how do you know she squeezed his ear harder I'm the historian with the experience and I just know stop hanging around with her gosh she acted like a monster she dragged him out with his ear and it made me so Furious I stormed back home and when I got there Mom noticed my sour mood H what's wrong why do you look like that my f I wanted to complain about Holly but I suddenly remembered that Mom and Dad didn't like foreigners much my forehead AES oh dear maybe you should meet the shaman don't worry Mom I'm fine I left her alone and hurried into the lava a few days passed by and I didn't see Logan even when I went to our spot my guess was that it had something to do with his awful sister one day while I was taking care of the reindeers I felt a pebble hit me behind my head who's there no one replied when I turned away the pebble appeared again and again and again someone was messing with me I headed to the direction where the Pebbles were coming from and found Logan hunched over in laughter you should have seen your face yeah yeah so funny you know what's funnier you ditching me I thumped him on the chest oh but he gripped my hands and we fell to the ground with me on top of him our faces were so close it made me blush he brushed my hair to the side and stared deep into my eyes but before he could kiss kiss me we felt something poke our sides it was one of the reindeers is that a reindeer we both stood up and dusted ourselves off yes you've never seen one before no they're beautiful your tribe seem to have a lot of beautiful things I wish I could see all of it but after what you told me about your parents I you can huh how wait here I ran off to the settlement while Logan waited for me I quickly cut down our washing line without anyone noticing and took some of dad's clothes then headed back to Logan mom and dad were busy so they didn't notice a thing here put them on I don't understand the only way to get into my settlement is if you saw me take them be quick awesome thank you after Logan was ready we walked back to the settlement don't be too excited act natural sorry I showed Logan around they're drawings made by our artists the hand workk on this is beautiful Holly would love this next I showed him dad's hunting Tools near the lava wow you have some talented hands here Logan was fascinated by everything but suddenly dad showed up behind us and who are you um Dad this is and darus we um wanted to borrow your tools for hunting and darus H his clothes look similar to mine take off your cap kid so I can see your face clearly dad snatched the cap away from his head blowing his cover you he shoved a finger into Logan's face like they knew each other um sir I don't know you liar and what do you think you're doing hanging out with me my daughter Foreigner I was so confused what was going on Dad I don't think you know him but he ignored me and focused on Logan I never want to see your kind around here go before I get my men to deal with you Logan ran off and I chased after him a Inga come back here no matter how loud dad screamed my name I didn't answer Logan wait he's right Inga you should stop hanging out with me you're my friend Logan why would I do that suddenly paully jumped out of the bushes Logan what to this little Barbarian dress you up in please leave him alone don't talk to me like that hly stomped towards me and raised her hand to slap my face but I caught it before it could land I had had enough of her evilness I'll talk to you however I like you're an evil She Devil with a black heart who survived on torturing everyone around you even your younger brother what on Earth is wrong with you shut up she raised her other arm but I caught it too no you shut up you're the worst person to have as a sister I pushed her to the ground then stepped towards her menacingly I'll deal with you sooner or later this isn't the end she got up and ran away like a coward I faced Logan but he turned away from me you shouldn't have done that I don't understand she's always mean to you it's none of your business Inga she's my sister not yours I can defend myself if I want to I don't need you doing it for me he walked off leaving me standing alone and wondering what I'd done wrong when I got home that evening I confronted dad you chased my only friend away foreigners are not your friends What's your deal with him why won't you tell me enough you're banned from leaving the settlement after that day Logan stopped speaking to me and the tension between dad and I grew thick but then one night while everyone in my tribe was asleep something terrible happened I woke up to the sound of someone stealing jewelry from mom's jewelry box and I screamed Thief waking everyone up the thieves ran out before I could see their faces properly I hurried outside and found that most of our things had been stolen our rocks slabs hunting tools I got on my horse and chased after the thieves and when I nearly caught up to the two of them I suddenly fell off from my horse but I got up and chased after them Barefoot stop when they stopped I was shocked to see Logan and Holly Logan I don't understand he couldn't even look at me I warned you to stay away anyways consider this payback for what your stupid tribe did to my parents what are you even Holly suddenly pushed me into a small pond I hadn't noticed and red bumps began to spread across my entire skin oops I guess you aren't so perfect after all look at your friend Logan she looks ugly now what a freak Holly that's enough you're never fun come on Logan gave me an apologetic look before he and his sister ran off I'd never felt so humiliated and stupid tears filled up my eyes shortly after my parents and the rest of the tribe ran up to me when they saw me they gasped what's that on her skin their voices sounded muffled as my eyes slowly closed and I passed out the next next morning I woke up to Dad and Mom packing up their stuff what's going on they suddenly rushed to my side oh honey thank goodness you're all right after what happened last night we decided to migrate today the events of last night rushed to my memory dad I should have listened to you because of me Logan and his sister stole from us I'm sorry really sorry and now everyone saw my skin last night to my surprise my parents hugged me I forgive you Ina it's not your fault he betrayed your trust people can be evil and sometimes we just can't control their actions also Ina there's nothing wrong with your skin everyone has flaws too my parents words were encouraging but there was one thing from last night I couldn't get off my mind D did we do anything wrong to Logan's parents is that how you know him I guess it's time I let you know remember years ago when our first settlement was destroyed by machines that boy and his people all did it I couldn't believe my ear but but that's impossible Logan said he didn't know you he was lying but I didn't want to say anything because you seemed so mad at me I thought that I had been wrong about him and he might have changed if only I knew he was still up to no good hearing everything dad said made me really Furious I couldn't believe Logan had only been using me it wasn't fair I'll never speak to foreigners again I promise you I joined my parents to pack up the rest of our things and within an hour we were on the move with every member of the tribe in two few days we found the perfect settlement it was green warm and smelled so fresh I took the reindeers out for grazing every day and in a few years I forgot all about Logan and Holly but then one day we heard a loud machine noise in the settlement which sent chills through my body and sent everyone into chaos we're not leaving our land again for foreigners we'll fight everyone rushed behind dad and waited for the machine when it finally appeared a man stepped out and it was Logan you please I come in peace years ago my sister and I stole some items from your home and I've spent years looking all over for your tribe to return them but you never stay in one spot why should we you destroyed our first settlement I was only a kid my parents were the ones responsible what was even their reason what did we ever do to them they were billionaires who were trying to expand their company all right that's all I know my dad brought me along but I didn't understand anything that was happening slowly I remembered the innocent little boy holding the hand of the adult who was screaming at his machines to destroy our homes but but what about the things you and your sister stole from us they're here and I can explain Holly was going to bring her team of researchers to ransack your homes if I hadn't convinced her that I knew the map of your settlement from what you showed me when you sneaked me in and we could do it alone instead what's her deal why is she so mean after my parents destroyed your homes they started to face some bad business and fell sick before they then passed away Holly thinks you have some witches that cursed them jeez I'm sorry Logan I hope she's doing better now no she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and is now in a mental facility as we talked dad and the rest of the tribe surrounded us we've had some misunderstandings in the past boy but everything you've said and done today proves you have a good heart as soon as every member of My Tribe dispersed I hugged Logan I've missed you me too Inga I've missed seeing your beautiful face so you don't think I'm a freak just like Holly said you're not a freak you just have a condition called Cole uticaria I'm a med student so I know really yep and for your eyes it's a condition called heterocromia heia as I tried to pronounce the words Logan laughed and looked into my eyes every year I spent far from you was torture I want to pick up from where we left off it's been a few years maybe we should take it slow and start over as friends first I can do that I had the biggest smile on my face Logan was back and everything was better come into the lava you're a part of us now once upon a time in ancient Japan during the era of the great dynasties there lived two families who owned the biggest rice fields and an emperor who wanted the finest rice in his Palace the tanas and the Nakamura own the finest rice fields in the land they both aspire to be the official rice of the realm send a messenger for shipment I will try their rice the emperor's decision led to a great competition between the two families each year they would send their finest rice to the court to be judged by the emperor and his advisers I think the nakamura's rice is far superior to the takas and so the Rivalry between the Nakamura and takana families began it was all because of a simple competition over rice but it went on for Generations oh hey there I'm aumi Nakamura and as you probably already guessed I come from a long line of wealthy Nakamura who hate the Tas and blah blah blah but really I'm just your average high school student in love with making Comics unfortunately I am destined to take over my family's multi-billion rice company and stay ahead of the Tan's company but here's the thing I don't want to be a CEO I want to be a comic Artist as you can imagine my parents do not support this dream is this supposed to be is this your father is this me uh uh no random people do you think that takana kid spends all day drawing silly things he would if he was smart SM making fun of your mom and I this is too much you know what I've been patient with you for years you leave me no choice I'm taking all of this nonsense away until you get serious again despite my please Mom and Dad seized all my books and sketches I was so mad at them the only thing they cared about was showing that the con as they were better by always pitting me against their son Tatsu he was as arrogant as his parents and mine I remember this one time when I had to race against him and lost come on make us proud Tatsu show them what we're made of ha in your face honestly I wasn't as good as Tatsu at many things and it embarrassed my parents a lot of times I still don't know why you can't win a single medal like the Tana kid I could if you just let me join a comic content a not this again aumi you're the heir to our company act like it as they talk to me Tatsu and his parents approached us uh could you move we want to take a picture of my son with his trophies we were here first jealousy is such an ugly color jealous of those cheap trophies you probably paid for never they started squabbling like chickens attracting a lot of attention Tatsu and I were helpless as we tried to stop them until the principal intervened please that's enough there are no winners or losers here both iumi and Tatsu are winners in their own right now why don't we go into my office and we can talk about this eventually everyone left as soon as I got home that evening I rambled to my best friend Maya I can't believe you let them get away with ruining your life I know right I wish I could do something about it why don't you then the whole family rivalry thing is ridiculous shh someone might hear us fine besides Tatu is hot you two would make a cute couple do the whole enemies toover thing you read too much romance Tatu is insufferable just like all his ancestors Maya loved to daydream about the characters she read in her love books I wished she could face the reality that there was no way Tatsu and I would ever be friends let alone anything more the next day at school I found students gathered around a bulletin board staring at a poster calling all aspiring comic book creators sta brings to your school a comic strip competition for a chance to work with us submit your art to our email you totally have to do this I want to but I don't want to get into trouble with my parents again it's online they don't have to know I thought about what Maya said and she was right so that night I sent some old sketches on my phone gallery to the email address before sleeping off and when I woke up the next morning I got an email saying I'd won and screamed oh my God I won we heard screaming what's wrong I was so happy that I didn't even notice when Mom picked up my phone and read the email I can't believe you went behind our backs for this nonsense look at what our daughter is up to you aren't stepping out of this house young lady I was so fed up by their restrictions this was my happiest day and I could couldn't believe they were being so controlling why do you hate everything I love because it's silly and you should use this time to study they were so annoying but I was determined to show up at the show and there was no way I was going to let them stop me I tied some clothes together and flipped them over my window I climbed down Rapunzel style and ran to the show it was the best decision ever I present this award to a Yumi Nakamura for the best comic in the contest I finally got my trophy and I was so Happy People congratulated me and wanted pictures when I was finally free I went out into the school field for some fresh air but my happiness was shortlived when I found Tatsu talking about me her trophy is nothing compared to all of mine she's still a loser I got really mad I grabbed an open water hose next to my feet next thing you know he was soaking wet oops sorry I thought you were a statue well I never expected a nakamuro to have any sense I sprayed him some more next thing I knew we we started fighting for the hose splashing water everywhere and on everyone we didn't even realize when Mrs S walked up and we sprayed her as well a Nakamura and a takana who else would I expect she started it enough can't you two be in the same place without causing trouble I knew everyone in school was tired of our constant fighting but honestly it wasn't my fault Tatsu was INF furiating you've both ruined everyone's day and cloth to the detention room after school we spent the entire day in detention as night fell we were packing our bags when the school lights abruptly went out we were in complete darkness I tripped over a chair and the next thing I knew I was sitting in someone's lap then the power came back on H can't get enough of me Nakamura Tatsu I couldn't believe it I quickly pushed off from him but as I did I noticed how strong his arms and legs were no wonder he won so many trophies I was so embarrassed what no I didn't know you were there what a a jerk I grabbed my things and walked out when I got home my parents were really mad at me in one day you've trashed the Nakamura name like it's nothing this isn't how we raised you gosh did they ever rest your mom and I have decided that a girl's boarding school is the best for you I don't want to go to boarding school you have no choice in the matter well if you take me there I'll make sure I fail every subject and I'll never brush or even have my bath I'll doodle all over the school and wear red jeans rad jeans her daughter has gone mad I gave my parents a real scare and they backed off for a while it felt good to finally talk back to them a few months later Mrs S informed us that we had a class trip coming up and I couldn't wait I'd already packed my bags days in advance I just needed a break from my parents on the day of the trip I showed up at the bus stop excited as I walked into the bus there were no empty seats Maya had saved none for me sorry I have to sit with the student council as the president I saved you seat though it was next to Tatsu I knew she was up to her old tricks trying to get me and Tatsu together I had no choice but to turn around and take the seat jeez he scooted as far as possible for me and I did the same during the journey we both dozed off when the bus finally stopped I woke up and found Tatsu and I had been sleeping against each other we stared at ourselves in disgust and jumped out of our seats like our butts were on fire later everyone started filing out of the bus and Mrs S made us dump all our gadgets into a bowl don't worry you'll get them back if you need to reach your parents you can use my phone we can't really enjoy nature if we're staring into a tiny electric window now can we and later she led us to a clearing where we all set up our tents with her health that afternoon I was looking forward to exploring the forest and doing some nature sketches when Mrs S received a phone call that she didn't look too happy about everyone gather around I need to leave my mother has had an emergency at the hospital Maya and the rest rest of the student council will handle this trip until the school sends a replacement follow their lead with that Mrs S rushed out and I felt really bad for her you heard Mrs S we should gather some firewood and rest for today tomorrow I'll let you know the schedule for the week everyone followed Maya's instructions I went into the tent we shared together to get some marshmallows from her backpack but she walked in and snatched it away from me H what do you think you're doing relax I just wanted to get some marshmallows you shouldn't go through my bag without telling me you go through my things what are you hiding nothing just stay away from the bag it has important things Maya left with the bag and I was so curious about what she was hiding from me I thought I'd check after everyone had gone to bed that night sadly I didn't let nature in on my plan at midnight a loud scream ripped through the tents waking everyone up we all rushed out to check what the matter was my friends are missing maybe they went into the bushes to pee no something came and snatched them everyone grab your lights and spread out in a search we all grabbed our lights and went into the dark Forest to find the missing students suddenly we heard some rustling who's there no one said anything but we spotted something big and furry in the bushes it's up there run Maya and I ran back to the campsite for our dear lives when we got back we discovered that some more students had gone missing and everyone was saying they'd seen something it was huge like a monster it was thin like a skeleton nobody's stories matched so Maya gathered everyone who remained to Cal us down we have to stay beside each other till morning gets brighter then we can find a way out and get help everyone huddled together for the night but when I woke up the next morning the campsite was empty it was like they had all disappeared Tatsu and I were the only ones left and the fool was sleeping I walked over and kicked him awake what happened everyone's missing that's what happened we have to search for them too risky if the thing taking them takes us too there'll be no one to save all of us I saw red and hushed out at him even if I knew it wasn't fair and he was actually making some sense all you can do is think about yourself in an emergency like this jeez fine I'll follow you if that'll make you shut up Tatsu and I ventured into the forest on our own when we heard a creepy sound do you hear that what that sound it's like someone's following us don't be ridiculous suddenly a loud growl came behind us and we turned around to find eyes glowing at us Tatsu and I ran back to Camp what if that thing got our friends we have to find them you're right we shouldn't waste any more time here or it'll get us too Tatsu and I gathered our bags and some food before we headed straight for the forest we stayed really close to each other on the way we found some footprints in the soil and followed them unfortunately I suddenly hit my leg against a large Rock and tripped hey are you okay I think I sprained my ankle to my shock Tatsu lifted me in his arms and kept walking what you'll slow me down if I let you walk my cheeks flushed as he walked for Miles with me in his arms I had no idea he was so strong and caring when we arrived at a tree canopy he gently placed me down we should rest for the day here and continue our search tomorrow I agreed with Tatu and when the sky went dark he gathered some wood and built as a campfire as I prepared to sleep I felt something crawling up my leg and screamed it was a scary wild cat I ran behind tatuo for protection but to my surprise he picked up the cat and stroked its back aw cutie did you lose your way what are you doing that's a wild cat n it's a cute stray I'll them you Tris I didn't realize he was such a big softy maybe his parents let him do whatever he wanted and weren't like mine your parents let you own cats they'd actually freak out if they saw me with one they hate anything that isn't studying just like mine They seized all my Comics because they weren't study books they're pretty terrible parents huh gosh yes Tatu and I laughed we spent most of the night talking about our parents it was really nice to know we shared a lot in common that night as he slept with Tris tucked under him I had a sudden inspiration and got out my Sketchbook to sketch them the next day Tatsu tucked Tris into his bag and we continued the search when we reached a small stream he offered to help me cross like a perfect gentleman you can jump I'll catch you I jumped on Tatsu and we fell to the grass with me on top of him my sketch of him from the previous night fell out of my bag wait a minute that's me and tris you drew this yeah wow you're really good can I keep it awesome thanks for a while we just stared at each other I realized how hot he looked but when Trish mued softly beside me I quickly got embarrassed we should get going you're right we dusted ourselves off and continued to follow the prince along the way we found torn clothes and got really scared oh my God that might be their clothes h no blood we should keep walking there might be further Clues down there as we walked farther we found found a lodge right on que we heard laughter only to find all our classmates inside laughing and having the time of their lives right in the middle was Maya I was Furious I can't believe my best friend and my classmates pranked me as soon as everyone noticed us they fell quiet I'm sorry aumi we just needed to get you and Tatsu to work together your rivalry was affecting everyone that's why you never wanted me to go through your backpack that night huh the bear costume was in there if you saw it it had ruin our plans your plan you mean everyone wanted it even Mrs S we planned it before the trip I looked around and noticed that everyone was staring at Tatsu and me as if we were villains it made me feel so guilty thankfully Tris ran right in the middle and their
