Innocence can't be lost
 I can tell you all sorts of interesting things about my life! I've ridden on dragons and talked to faeries and beat up monsters and bad guys! And this was all before I was even a member of Las Panteras! I've had quite the interesting life, but I'll try to keep most of my tales out of it because they are for me and well, most people just don't believe me and I don't understand why. It's all the complete truth! Every last bit of it!I was born in New Orleans and have spent my whole life here. It's a big place and so we have a lot to do around here and never get bored. Well that used to be a good thing. My parents weren't very rich at all, but we got by on what we had just fine. My mom was a very good mom to me and I loved her dearly. Still do. My dad though... well he didn't really like my imagination when I started to show it. He even tried to beat it out of me a few times, but well, it didn't work. Those beatings though tended to make me be a little more umm... a little more isolated from the other kids. Not only that, but they started to find me weird anyway. I always had someone to play with. You people call them imaginary friends, but they really aren't you know. Haijin is my best friend from that time. I really like him. He's fun to play around with and he's always been there for me to make me feel better. My dad just really got more and more mad with me as time went by. My imagination grew and I happen to love the stuff like unicorns and dragons and faeries. So I kept up with reading stories and stuff about them. Well I guess the big life changing thing came when I was 12. We were out and about more so alone at night in New Orleans and in the window of a store, I saw the most beautiful figure of a unicorn I had ever seen. I couldn't get my eyes off it. I heard my dad yelling, but paid no attention at all. It wasn't long after that I started to feel a lot of pain. Well he beat on me really badly that night, saying he wasn't going to take me being like this anymore. My mom had died a couple years ago and he thought that I was the only kid he'd ever have to try and carry on his seriousness. I don't recall too much of what happened that night after that, just that I was rescued out of that mess by a Pantera. Alec to be exact! He was very gentle and sweet with me and took me back to the other Panteras to take care of me. Since my dad died that night, I've stayed with Las Panteras ever since! They're all really great and now I have Tricks, Erykah, Surprise, and Alec alll there for me. It really is a wonderful feeling and I love them all. I'm lucky... Alec won't play with many people at all, but I get to be one of the few. He's just the best and I can't thank him enough for helping me through everything. Guess he's like the real dad I never ever had. And I'll do everything I can to make sure he comes out of this all right. After all he's been there to protect me all that time, guess it's my turn. Just gotta keep hanging on, and I'll never let go. Then he can't ever be lost cause I'll always be with him, and you're not lost when you have someone you love with you. I know, I have Daddy.  In order to be happy with oneself it is necessary to make at least one other person happy... The secret of human happiness is not in self-seeking but in self-forgetting Every time I turn around |
