A/n hi I had so many good ideas for this story I just had to write them down before my head exploded!

Disclaimer: I do not own them.

Claimer: I do own the plot and my characters

Chapter 3

Helen's POV

Now how did she know that, I asked myself.

She is a mind reader, answered Aqua in my mind.

I guess I will have to tell them sooner rather than later, huh. Aqua will you shield my mind there are some things that little girls as Angel should not be exposed to.

Thought you would never ask, she replied.

Angel's POV

I watched everyone's reaction to my question, to my surprise Helen only cocked her head to the side and looked mildly surprised. Max however did not take my question so well.

"WHAT?!" she screeched as she jumped up from her chair. Fang looked aghast at this news (a/n what?! Fang showing emotion AHH!.) Nudge and Gazzy were to taken back to talk ( a/n Nudge speechless AHH!) Iggy just sat there.

Max POV "WHAT" I screeched as I jumped up from my chair.

Max, said the voice in my head, I have something I need to tell you. Not now Voice can't you see that I'm busy. I know, I know , but you now how you think I know everything.. OH yeah you can tell me if she's my mother! NO, Max see that's just what I was going to tell you! You see I do not know if she' your mother or not you will just have to listen to her and I will explain a few things later. Then I heard Helen's calming voice saying"Now, now Max calm down and I'll tell your story and part of mine as well." She took a breath and started to talk. "When I was in my early twenties I decided I wanted to be a missionary to a third world country. I went to missionary seminar and studied for four years. After my training ended, I choose a little nation in Africa to spread the gospel in, unfortunately for me this country was infamous for its high crime rates and its inhospitality to Christians. I was walking home one night from visiting with one of my friends. I knew that it was dangerous to go out night, but I was having so much fun with my friend I didn't notice how dark it was getting." Here she paused and I saw such pain in her eyes I felt her pain as my own.

"You don't have to go on if it's to painful, dear." said Thomas.

"No no sweetheart Max deserves to know." She took in another deep breath and with that new breath a look of determination was on her face and she started talking again.

"Max, on that night in a dark alley I was raped and you were conceived." she put her hand up to stop me from interrupting. " Max I want you to now this even though I was raped and I was mentally battered I never thought of hating you, or aborting you, or even giving you up for adoption. I loved you!"

"Then why was I sent to the School? Why wasn't I raised by you?" I could feel the anger boiling up, but I couldn't help it, I was MAD! "Max, you have to believe me it was not my choice that you went to this place you call the School." she said. "Just let me explain a little more and you'll understand."

I realized what I had said and cooled down a little.

"Okay" I relented. She gave a sigh of relief and started to talk once more,

"A few months after you were born I was visited by another friend of mine. He warned me that a detachment of soldiers was coming to arrest me. He asked me to flee, he said he had transportation ready to get me out, but he was too late for after he told me all this there was a knock on the door. I thrust you into his arms and made him promise to take care of you. Then I pushed you both into a secret room made especially for such a purpose. For years Max, I pined away in prison wondering if you were safe. After four years had gone by, I had given up hope of ever seeing my precious daughter again, until a man named Dr. John freed me with the help of the people in this room plus two others who are not here, and now I have one question for you Max, would you like to know your name?"

"Yes" I replied eagerly wanting to know more of things, I had long ago given up hope of ever knowing.

"I named you Deborah, after the prophetess in the Bible for like her I knew you had a warrior spirit."

"Deborah" I whispered trying to get used to it. You know I sorta liked it. I wonder who this Deborah was, I wondered if she had a rough time of it like me.

"Well" announced Aqua "I guess its time for you all to go to bed. I'm sure your brains are hurting from all the information you've learned to day and I'm sure our tired. She was right we were all very tired so we silently trudged up to our beds, but unfortunately for me my night was not yet over.

And for all you action seekers out there who are wondering wheres the action don't worry its coming I just hope you don't mind seeing Ari getting his butt kicked.
