My name is Liza. This is my story, if you don’t like it, you don’t have to read it, that’s your decision. However, if you do decide to read this, then I must urge you to say nothing about whatever goes on in these pages to anyone. It is only for the safety of those who live in The Academy. Our lives depend on you.

We are all orphans at least, we were, until the head honcho at The Academy decided to adopt us all for some reason. What they want to do with a bunch of kids I have no idea, all I know is that now, I have a home. I have a family, and I will never give that up.

Right now I am fifteen, I have lived with The Academy since before I can remember. I don’t know who my parents are, and don’t want to know for that matter. They left me. This is my family now, and I will do all I have to do to protect them. No matter what.
