3'rd-POV
November 11, 1979, a child was born and found at a car wreckage scene and later left at an orphanage with only the blanket that wrapped its small form. Algol Orunmila Mortem did not have an easy childhood.
In 1982 Algol was adopted at age 3 to a family that was abusive. Algol new guardians names were Mrs. Pain and Mr. Pain. Algol was brought up to not speak unless spoken to, to be seen not heard, and to not cry unless wanting something to cry about.
At age 5 one of her neighbors call the cops on her abusive guardians. She was found with her back torn to shreds by a whip and writs and ankles chained. Near Algol chained up body was the corpse of Sally -May a 5-year-old girl who had gone missing 3 weeks prier to the tip the neighbors had given to the cops.
Sally -May was Algol first friend and in Mrs. Pains and Mr. Pains point of view a distraction to their slave. Sally -May was a daughter to two dentists who competed against the Pains. Once the Pains learned that Algol had acquainted Sally -May they told Algol that she could have Sally over their place after school. Since this was the first nice thing that the Pains gave Algol, she did not question why the Pains were being so nice. In hindsight Algol really should have been more skeptical of the kindness that the Pains were showing her. The Cops arrested Mrs. Pain and Mr. Pain under the charges of murder of Sally -May and domestic abuse of a minor. The couple was put in jail for life. After Algol was healthy enough to leave the hospital she was dropped off at the orphanage that she originally came from.
At the age of 7 a different couple that lived in Little Whinging in Surrey, England adopted Algol. The Torchers adopted Algol purely on the belief that Algol was a boy just by name. Mrs. Torcher and Mr. Torcher were not pleased to find out that Algol was a girl. The Torchers ordered Algol to be the perfect gentleman. They said if she got anything below the top grade in class that they would lock her into a wooden box for a few hours and would not feed her. Algol's new room had no windows and no bed just a chair and a desk. When her guardians had anyone over she was to play the perfect son. When Algol was not doing academics she was doing either physical labor for cheap pay, or mixed martial arts. The Torchers believed in learning through experiencing.
Algol did not leave or call the cops on her new guardians, because she did not want to be left in the Orphanage system again, and she did not want to live on the streets. Whenever she did get something wrong in her new guardians eyes, she would be whipped and then left in a box for hours. Algol was smart and knew that her guardians could have sexually abused her, but they did not. Algol learned fast to put a mask on in order to survive. Algol also learned to think like a guy and be the perfect son that Mrs. Torcher and Mr. Torcher wanted.
