A/n: Ok, so my first fanfic! I hope everyone enjoys it, hints and tips always welcome and if you have any questions then just ask in a reveiw, pm, or email. Anyway, read and review please.
We were always the epitome of the perfect family. There was a daddy who worked hard to provide only the greatest luxuries for his little family, a mommy who did her best to pamper the children, an older brother who would do anything to care for his adorable little sister, and then there was me. I was the seemingly sweet and innocent little sister who could get away with anything in the bat of an eyelash; I didn't even have to ask.
For a few short years we had it all: money, class, happiness, but then Caine just had to snap.
It all started shortly after his thirteenth birthday and a few weeks before my twelfth, my parents tried hard to keep Caine and I out of the loop, but no matter how hard they tried we could always hear the shouting, the cursing, and glasses breaking. The fact was, our perfect little family was falling apart.
They were fighting over money, food, us, but there was always one similar topic that got the arguments rolling and that was Caine. I wouldn't understand until later that it wasn't actually Caine getting into trouble but my parents lies catching up to them that would start all the shouting.
I should have realized it as soon as my parents refused to let us see Caine's birth certificate; after all, they let us look at mine whenever we asked, but they couldn't afford to show us Caine's. If they did, then it would be admitting he was adopted and that would surely tear their family apart faster than the fighting between mommy and daddy in their point of view. Well, they were fools.
Even though I was one of the last to know, Caine knew from the moment they wouldn't show us, and as soon as he put the pieces together; he turned into a problem child. You know, the kind that never listened; stays out late and sleeps till noon, but the final straw was when he started stealing from our parents wallets.
Although, in his defense, he never did anything bad with the money; he wasn't stupid enough to start doing drugs. No, whenever Caine stole from our parents then I could expect a present to appear on the foot of my bed, any time between two and three in the morning. But apparently my parents didn't find this as sweet as I did; within two months of Caine's new attitude, he was packed up and shipped off to Coates before I could even voice a protest.
For the next three miserable months I was seperated from my brother, it took hours of pleading, days of pretending to starve myself, and a suicide threat before my parents finally agreed to send me to Coates to be with Caine. Of course, he wasn't as thrilled as I was when I phoned him the news, all he could do was blather on about how life in Coates wasn't as safe as it should be or how some strange things had been going on lately and he didn't want me a part of that. But, because I'm the little sister that everybody loves, I didn't listen to a word out of his mouth. He'll come around once he sees me, if theres one thing in the world that never changes its the fact that Caine takes his job as my brother way to seriously; he'd die for me.
But to venture off from the story for a bit, what I'm trying to say is, this is my story. Unless I die, I'll be retelling the time of the FAYZ in my own words; as the girl who kept Caine sane, the breaker of quite a few hearts, and the savior of many lives. My name is Isabell and this is my time in the FAYZ.
A/n: So? I hope you enjoyed the prologue, review please and tell me what you think!
