Viv - An Umbrella Academy Fan-Fiction

Prologue

On October 1st, 1989 forty-three children were born, their mothers having not shown any recent signs of pregnancy before the day.

Sir Reginald Hargreeves, a wealthy billionaire, bought seven of these children and trained them to become superheroes after realizing they all had unique powers. Knowing the outcome of these seven, it is thought that the other thirty-six children also have supernatural powers.

However, another woman from America had given birth about eighteen years later on the same date, and she too never had any recent signs of pregnancy from before the day the child was born. Because of this surprise pregnancy, the parents had given this child up for adoption and never gave the child another thought.

Doctors to this day haven't been able to figure out the connection between this birth and the one from eighteen years before. The child had been tested from a young age, but nothing bad came up, much like the tests from the other seven children that were taken in.

This child was incredibly intuitive and gifted, her CT scan as an infant showed that her brain was more developed than that of any other infant baby. Her birth parents never came up with a name so a couple days after the child was born and ready for life, a nurse asked the baby for a name as a joke. 

"Viv." The baby babbled, and that has been the child's name ever since.

She was only a few days old and it already said a word. Or should I say, a sound. 

Now, the child is a teenager. A 13-year-old. She still has no idea who her parents are and to be honest, she couldn't care less. She always admired palindromes, words that spelled backwards are the same if you'd spell it forwards. Makes sense why, considering her name she chose is a palindrome.
