My thirteenth birthday was my most memorable, it started out a normal day of playing chess with uncle, but I was suspicious as to why he had not given me my gift yet.

The previous years he had gotten me small trinkets from the ack market that he laid on the table for when I woke up, but this year there was nothing.

"Uncle, am I too old for presents?" I asked sadly

He just grinned and whistled loudly

I'm response to his whistle I heard a bark and a dog bolted around the corner and into view.

It was a beautiful female border collie that had the bluest eyes I'de ever seem.

I named her Lucy.

After my mother.
