Chapter 1: Prologue
Everything was a blur. A hazy, indistinct, unfocused blur.
The sirens. The yelling. The footsteps pounding on the hospital floor. She tried to zone in on any distraction available to keep her mind off the pain, but the blinding light and the annoying old crone in the uniform were both making that nearly impossible.
In the end, all that was left to do was push.
Hard.
So this is what she got for getting knocked up by the Mafia, the woman mused. But this was good; Once it was all over and done with, and he saw the baby, they would be together forever, with all unhappy memories of arguments and unfaithfulness forgotten. This was what she had been dreaming of for months. They could finally live together in peace.
There was one final, excruciating jolt of pain, but then she heard the newborn cry, and everything was worth it.
She dimly registered a soft, squirming bundle being put into her arms, a voice telling her it was a girl, and felt a wave of relief rush over her. The baby was healthy, with beautiful, shocking blue eyes, and little by little, her own pair started to focus, which made the young woman notice two very important things-
One- That it was rather strange the baby's father wasn't there beside her.
And two, she realized, feeling hot tears start to distort her vision again- Neither she, nor him, nor anyone in their family had blue eyes.

Author's Note: Uh, brownie points for trying? :D Yes? Well, all I could hope for was that the chapter made sense, really. It's very short, I know, but I just needed a place to start.
