Chapter One

Brent

Lorien.

It's a beautiful place. Filled with trees and greenery. Everyone gets along. There are no wars, unlike Earth. There are ceremonies. There are two moons. There are many inhabitants. Everything is always fine. We never let history repeat itself on what happened seventeen years ago. We have security everywhere around the planet. We each have iMogs, devices that detect our invaders seventeen years ago. We all live happily ever after as an Earth fairy tail would say.

The problem is, I can't get back to there.

When I was two, we left Lorien because of the Mogadorian's attack. I could see two other ships lifting off too, and the fireworks that were set off before the invasion, and the huge warships that loomed over many parts of Lorien. Even though I was two, I can still remember the look on my Cepen's face when we were attacked. It was a horrible moment in Lorien history. My Cepen told me that ten other members of the Garde escaped alive from Lorien; nine in the first ship, and one in the second ship.

It was a long journey from Lorien to Earth, and all I had were my Cepen and an lPod. I was too young to get a lPhone; and the lPod provided news about Loiren and some music different that Earth's music. It was all that a two year old needed at the time.

But on the way to Earth, my Cepen died.

I was stuck controlling the ship to Earth. Somehow the ship went to Earth by itself, which now I think is the work of auto-pilot. I cried every day from that point on.

I was three when I arrived on Earth. All of the other Cepens from the other two ships found me tried to make sense of it all. One finally decided that he would take me with him. But that was when I fell off the boat on the way to dry land.

Now I knew why the Cepens couldn't get me since none of them had the legacy of underwater breathing. In fact, none of them even had legacies. And I was too young to have them. So they all dove in the water to try to get me. That was the last thing I remembered before I blacked out from lack of oxygen.

I woke up in a bed in a hospital. The doctors asked who my parents were, and I told them I didn't have any in a two year old way. After I recovered, they shipped me off to an orphanage. I kept telling myself that when I got legacies, I could go back to Lorien.

When I was ten, I was adopted by a man. He told me that he had many cameras in his house, so "don't sneak off to whatever you like to do." When I got to my new home, I learned that he was right. Traps, cameras, and any other device you use for detecting intruders was in that home. I also learn two things about him very quickly; His name was Thomas, and he didn't want to be called "dad." The second thing was that he was very strict and had big muscles. If you violate one of his rules, he can wreck you up.

I was supposed to fight with the Garde, to rise Lorien from the ashes.

But that didn't happen.

Thomas locks me up most of the time, and I know I can't get out because of the security he puts on his house.

It's been five years since Lorien was raised from the ashes, and I still am trapped down here with my "dad."

My human name is Brent. I am Number Eleven.

And I am light-years away from home.
