ELLIE'S POV
I stared at John for a minute before he startes talking while looking at my clenched fists
-" When you were born Marlene adviced Anna to give you to Marlene and since your mom hated kids she easily fell for Marlene's trap one day when Marlene left with you Anna became weak she cried everynight holding the blanket where she first held you when you're born I can't do anything but just look at her" He said
-" What happeneds next?" I asked
-" Anna decided to find Marlene and when we did find her Marlene said that she sent you to a military school. Anna wanted to see you but Marlene stopped her she said FEDRA would kill Anna because she's also a firefly so Marlene suggested that Anna would just write you a letter which she did then we went back to our camp many years had passed when suddenly news started broadcasting about Marlenes death your mother became uneasyshe wanted to find you but we didn't know where to start and we didn't know how since FEDRA has been wiping out fireflies eversince then" He said in a shaking voice
-" How come Marlene doesn't want me to see my mother?" I asked again
-" Ellie......from the very start Marlene had a secret anger for your mother and she's best in hiding it and when Marlene knew about Anna giving birth she took this chance to do her plan" He said clenching one of his hand into a fist
-" What plan?......Why is she angry at my mother? " I asked
-" That's what I don't know........but let me continue the story......we decided to leave boston and travel with the remaining fireflies until we found seattle there while we're scavaging for supplies we got abducted by this so called WLF or washington liberation front or what they call themselves WOLVES......Isaac the leader of the WLF started to like your mother so he spared us and made us part of their group and that's when things started to take turns your mother immediately got one the highest rank in the group because of her persistance and smart tactics then one day our group got assigned to clear out an old abandon building but unfortunately me and your mother got seperated and I didn't think that's the last time I'll see her" He said and started crying
-" What happened?" I asked
-" When me and your mother got seperated I felt uneasy I felt something bad will happen so I looked for your mother and while I was looking for her I heard gunshots so I ran to see what it was and when I saw it I saw your mother coldlessly lying on the floor choking in her own blood then when I turned to see who shot her I couldn't believe what I saw it's a girl and what's worse she's with us and she's a former firefly" He stated
-" What's her name?" I asked
-" Her name was Abby immediately I went to your mother not caring if she'll kill me too but she didn't
-" Why didn't she kill you?" I asked
-" so she has someone to blame......she just shot me in my knees then ran off after she did that I went beside your mother all I can hear her say is your name and she told me to find you" He said
-" What happened?" I asked
-" When we got back Abby immediately spoke to Isaac before I can turns out Abby acvused me for killing Anna so before Isaac could kill me I escaped and by that I fulfilled your mothers last wish" He said
-" What does she had to do with this?" Joel said looking at John then back to me
-" I just want to fulfill my promise to my friend" He said
-" What does she look like and why did abby killed my mother?, Why does she need to do that to her?" I asked
John Immediately got his backpack and got a picture of him, Abby and my mom. Abby has a french braid I could tell.... I examined the picture and my mom caught my attention she's bautiful we both have the same eye color and hair our face really looked alike and eventhough I didn't see her fight I could tell she's a badass just by looking at the picture then as I examined the picture John spoke
-" Abby had a burning hatred towards your mother eversince the WLF abducted us until Anna became one of the superiors of the group" He said
Silenced roamed over until John spoke again
-"Y'know you really looked like your mother" He said smiling
-" I know" I replied letting out a small sigh
-" Well it's getting pretty late......John we got one extra house in here do you want to stay?" Tommy asked
-" Sure since I don't have anymore place to go" John replied
-" We'll take you there c'mon" Maria said
Tommy, Maria and John left leaving me and Joel alone silence immediately creeped over as the three left as I cried as I was looking at my mothers picture and anger as I saw Abby
-" Kiddo-----" I cut Joels sentence off
-" I want to kill her" I said
-" It's not how you wanna do it kiddo" Joel said
-" Then what Joel?" I asked at him shouting
-" let's just deal this tomorrow you need rest" Joel said
-" No Joel......How the fuck am I gonna rest if I know my mom died because of her" I said pointing at Abby in the picture
-" look kiddo we need to think this through" Joel said
-" Because of her I lost the chance to be with my mom" I said
-"Ellie-----" I cut off Joels sentence
-" I need to think......I'll go to Dina's house tonight to think.... I don't want to stay here after what happened" I said
-" Sure thing kiddo....let's talk about this tomorrow ok?" He said
-" Ok" I said and walked towards the door still holding my mothers picture
As I walked over to Dina's house I looked at the picture once more and I looked at my mom and how she smiles but sadness is seen in her eyes " MOM IF YOU'RE HEARING THIS I WILL KILL HER FOR YOU" I said to myself " SORRY JOEL BUT I'M COMING AFTER HER" I said a few minutes of walking I already got to Dina's house but as I came closer I started cryuing again I tried to clear up my eyes before I knock but as Dina opened the door tears continuously began to flow off my eyes as Dina hugged me
