Chapter 1: Intro and a flashback
Hello My name is Amanda Claire Hardy, but everyone calls me Mandi. Yes you heard right Hardy, my half brothers are Matt and Jeff Hardy. We have the same dad but different mothers. My dad is Gil Hardy. My mothers name was Marissa Hardy. She married my dad in 1995. I am 15 years old. I was born on April 27th, 1998 in Raleigh, North Carolina which is where I live now. My mom died in January of 2004, she just got sick, I was 5 years old. Before she died she help Jeff kick his drug addiction. She used me to help her to get Jeff to quit drugs. I remember it when I five years old my mom said: *Flashback* "Ok now honey I want to play a trick on Jeff and I want you to help me." My mom said to me. "Okay mommy." I said. "Now I put some of the white colored pixy stixs in this bag." She showed me a plastic bag with white pixy stixs dust in it. "Mommy why is all the pixy stixs in the bag white?" I asked. "Because that is part of plan now I want you eat all the other colored pixy stixs, when I say ok?" She said to me and show me the rest of the pixy stixs from the pack. "Okay" I said. She told me the plan and gave me the pixy stixs that were colored and were still in the wrapper to eat. I ate all of the pixy stixs and was hyper for a long time, she told me what to do when the hyper-ness worn off. She also told me to pass by the kitchen a few times when I was running around. When the hyper-ness worn off I went into the kitchen "Jeffy I don't feel so good." I said looking like I was going to throw up. "Why is that? Did you eat too many sweets?" Jeff asked smiling thinking I was so adorable. "I had sweets but not that many of them. I had some of the pixy stixs from your bag but I didn't eat too much of it." I said. "What pixy stixs?" Jeff asked curious. "You know, the pixy stixs that was taken out of the wrapper and put in a plastic bag, it tasted funny though." I said then I held my stomach and cried out in pain. Jeff looked at my mom with this shocked look on his face. "Mandi can you go get the bag of pixy stixs you found in my bag and bring it to me?" Jeff asked. "Okay Jeff" I said holding my stomach and leaving the room. When I was out of sight I went upstairs and got got the bag with white colored pixie stix dust in it like my mom said to do, she told me to say I got it from the pocket inside of Jeff's bag. I went back into the kitchen holding my stomach and I showed Jeff the bag. Jeff had this expression on his face like he was sad, scared and shocked when I showed him the bag. "Where did you find that?" Jeff asked. "It was in the inside pocket of your black bag Jeffy." I said. "What did you do with bag when you found it?" Jeff asked me. "I picked some up in my fingers and ate it, I think it is bad it didn't taste that sweet." I said. Jeff had this look on face that I couldn't explain at time but it made me think this prank was going too far but mom said to continue with the prank until her or Matt told me to stop, Matt was also in on the prank. Matt walked into the room "What's going on here?" Matt asked. I ran to Matt "I feel sick after eating some of Jeffy's bad candy." I said. Matt looked at Jeff and Jeff pulled out the bag and showed it to Matt. He gave a really mean look to Jeff then he looked at me when I cried out in pain again. "Sweetie show me how much you ate." My mom said, she got out a measuring cup and told me to put how much I ate into the measuring cup. I put in the amount of handfuls she told me to earlier. "One ounce" She said. "Matt why don't take Mandi upstairs and try to take her mind off of it, "It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie" is upstairs go put it on for her, it is her favorite movie." My mom said. Matt shook his head yes and then carried me upstairs. When we were upstairs Matt said I did a good job and he and mom were going to take me to Disneyland this weekend, like they promised.
*Down Stairs with Jeff and Marissa*: "Jeff I want you get rid of all your drugs, I know you have a problem but I will not tolerate my five year old daughter and your sister accidentally doing crystal meth, that she wouldn't have gotten if you would have gone to rehab and gotten rid of your drugs a long time ago like we have all been trying to get you to do!" Marissa said. "I'm sorry, I feel so horrible. I didn't know she would get into my bag, I wish I would have never brought it into the house." Jeff said while pushing his face and hair back with his hands. "You have to make a decision is this the example you want to set for Mandi or do you want to show her how strong you are? Mandi is going to look up to you, do you want to be the reason why she thinks drugs okay or the sober person who makes sure she never does drugs?" After that Jeff get rid of his drugs, he told me that wasn't pixy stixs and he would explain it to me when I got older, but not take things without asking anymore. After Jeff got rid of his drugs and signed up for a rehab program, my mom told him the truth. He was shocked and mad at first but then my mom told him it was better he learned how easily I could of gotten to his drugs now rather than when I was 16 and it wasn't pixy stixs. *End of Flashback*
After my mom died my dad fell apart, but he survived. My brothers have always been protective of me, I think its because I'm the only girl. I haven't seen them since my birthday which was about 4 months ago, they have been on the road traveling with the WWE. I have straight black hair like my mother, it falls just a little past my chest. My eyes are brown. I am about 5 ft 2 inches. I love music and I am a fashionista most of the time.
