I was sitting in my room when an announcement came over the P.A. "all girls between 7 and 16 downstairs please." I jumped up and slid my phone in my pocket.
~~~~~~~~
Downstairs we stood in age order. A tall blond woman walked through the door. She walked up to me. "Whats your name?"
"Lux Valentine." I answered flatly.
The woman looked at a few more girls then told the owner who she wanted. Then i was told to pack my stuff. Yippee. Please tell me this woman won't try to give me her fashion sense. A red leather jacket? Please.

We were in her car on a "road trip". To Maine apparently. She asked me about my life. So i told her. "I was dropped on the steps of a different orphanage when i was two. I was adopted short after. Then shortly after my 15th birthday the only family i had died. I pushed them to go to a movie for my birthday. Then the drunk driver hit us head on, killing my parents. I was on the streets for a while until some non-profit organization lady found me. Then i ended up at Sunshine's. The end."
"Your name is so pretty."
"That wasn't always my name."
"What was it before?"
"When the older children get to Sunshine's they are given the option to change their name. Like if they went through a tragic experience, like losing your parents. So i changed mine to Lucaria Valentine. But before it was Sylvia Jones. I remember when i was a baby being raised in an old pawn shop."
Then a memory hit me head on like a train.
I was younger. Much younger. I was dancing around an old pawn shop. Then i slid out the door. The man i knew as my father came out. "Sylvie... what did i say about going outside..."
"Don't go wifout daddy." I said like a baby. "Right. Now if you come help me i'll take you to Granny's later."
"Okay daddy." And with that the little girl walked back inside followed by the man.
It was over. I looked at Emma. "I remember."
"Remember what?"
"My first family. A man. Older man. Walked with a cane." Emma paled.
<Emma's P.O.V.>
"My first family. A man. Older man. Walked with a cane." It was Gold. I knew it. But why did he give her up? I don't know. I will find out though. 

<Lux's P.O.V.>

It was close to silent the rest of the ride there. We stopped in a little town "Storybrooke" Emma said. "Welcome home Lux." She said, leading me into a small apartment. Yay, this is my new hellhole.
