W.V.S
Chapter 1
Mary Lids Paige strolled quickly along the sunlit boardwalk, her eyes flitting down the signs of the passing shops. She was searching for a place her good friend Casa had recommended. She was looking for an orphanage, where Casa had adopted her beautiful girl, who she had named Cassie, after her. Mary had become jealous of Casa's gorgeous baby. Now she was going to find her own. A girl, or maybe a boy, but she was hoping to find a pretty girl Cassie's age so that they could play. As a child, Mary had always wanted someone to grow up with, and because she didn't, she was destined to make sure that her baby girl did. She was walking briskly, and bumped into someone. This certain someone was a tall, amazingly handsome teenage boy, dressed in punk clothes and followed by a gang of misfits. Mary made a quick note to herself to never show her baby girl to anybody like these guys. They walked around her and she continued to stride down the boardwalk. Then she saw it, the orphanage. She could barely make out each and every little crib, and bodies of little children running and playing. As she walked inside, the "ting" sound from opening the door called on a slightly aged woman, hair in a tangled messy bun. Mary introduced herself and was taken to the children's room. Cassie now was one year old so she told the woman that she was looking for a young girl of only one. As they were searching, Mary's eyes began to wander. She accidentally found them upon a cute girl of only one. The woman said that her name was Sarah, and that she was in desperate need of a home. Just then an alarm went off. The children started screaming and doing what Mary guessed looked like a drill, but this time it was real. There was a fire in the building. The woman was too busy with the children to come to Mary, but she gave her a sign to leave. So Mary Paige left, frightened and childless.
Mary Lids Paige returned to the orphanage one week later, to see that it had resided to ashes. She went inside. The old woman had died, and so had many of the kids, and even more of the infants. A lady in her late thirties told Mary that three babies were left, of the age one. And that she would be so delighted if I would take them. She told her that the girls, were in fact triplets. That was the first time Mary saw Wonder, Silence, and Vengeance. Her baby girls.
