Price and Nikolai were your new adoptive parents. It had been a few months and it took the entire time for you to even start coming out of your shell. You had grown up in a home of one adult and six kids in extreme poverty. It was your 15th birthday coming up tomorrow, and you hadn't even brought it up.
