I love my life.
I am powerful, I am beautiful, I am free.
I love my life.
I am wonderful, I am magical, I am me.
I love my life.

~Love my life by Robbie Williams

I have always held my friends and family lives higher than my own. That doesn't mean I'm trying to die it just means that if the choice came between me and them then the choice is obvious.

I don't have a really have a big family, just my mum, step dad and two brothers. My mum is Elizabeth 'Lizzie' Evans and she's pharmacist or as she likes to say a legal drug dealer. Then there's me, Lola Evans. I'm just your average 14 year old, I like dogs and causing trouble, nothing special. The only thing about be that counts as abnormal is that I constantly have a rucksack with me that contains 4 changes of clothes and 3 first aid kits and have everything planned on my phone. Next in the line up is Thomas 'Tomo' Evans, my younger brother. Tomo is paralysed from the waist down, he has been since he was 8. Me, I was 10, and him were in the car with our dad when a car came out of nowhere and hit the drivers side of the car. Dad was killed instantaneously, and Tomo nearly died as well. I got through it with a broken arm and a horrific memory. Two years after the accident mum met James Ost. After dating for 7 months, with Tomo's and my approval they got married, James changing his surname to Evans. James works at a factory and is called by me and Thomas, James. Last year my half brother Isaac 'Isa' was born. Isaac is the cutest little baby you can find.

My group of friends is even smaller than that. Sure I get along with everyone pretty much everyone but I wouldn't count them as friends. The only person I am certain is my friend is my best friend since primary, Kathryn 'Katie' Holt. Katie is one of the few people who stayed true to me through the pain of my dad dying. Katie is the sister I never had, I love her and her family. Her older brother Matthew 'Matt' is like a older brother to me. He's always looking out for me. Her parents look out for me also. They're my extended family.

"LOLA! Your girlfriends on the phone." Tomo yells pulling me from my thoughts. I walk into the room flicking him on the forehead as I take the phone from him, "She's not my girlfriend you idiot." "Yet" was his reply. Shrugging happily at the comment I raise the phone to my ear, "Hey Katie. What's up?" "Turn on the news." Her scared voice came through the phone. "Baby? You okay?" "Now! Please…" Hearing that I run over to where Tomo is now watching the TV and switch the channel to the news ignoring Tomo's murmurs of complaint. When I see what's on the news I wispier through the phone "It's not true is it?" Silence. "They're not gone Katie. Are they?" "I-I don't know." Some where in the back of my mind I acknowledge that Tomo was yelling for James and mum to come quick. "Katie… Katie talk to me please. I'm scared." "How do you think I feel Lola? The Kerberos mission is missing. MY BROTHER AND DAD ARE MISSING AND YOUR SCARED!" Her angry and worried voice wakes me up. I feel mum's hand rest on my back and I spin round and hug her. I feel James take the phone from my hand and ask Katie, "Katie can I talk to your mum?" I guess Katie passed James onto her mum because the thing I remember is sitting in the car with everyone on the way to the Holt household. As soon as the car stops I leap out and run into the house. Reaching Katie I pull her into a hug holding her as close as possible. Mum, James and the boys follow soon after me. The next few hours pass in a blur. Me and Katie having ended up lying down on her bed with Isa between us, and Tomo having manoeuvred himself with some help so he was sitting on the end of the bed. At what I assume is 8 o'clock mum and James come in taking the boys home, leaving me with Katie knowing neither of us want to be alone. That night I sleep in the master bedroom of the Holt household with Katie and Colleen, her mum.

Hope you enjoyed. I don't own Voltron
