I'm Neva (nay-vah). The child that nobody wanted and only few people could handle. My name translates into snow. Why did they name me that? Well, we will get to that later. For now, though, I'll start from the beginning and tell you how I ended up in prison, for...well...pretty much most of my young life.
_____________________________________________

It was a very dark winters evening and rain pelted down onto the grey concrete that was covered in a layer of cold water.
A lady, around 22 years old with jet black hair and the darkest eyes carried a hammer through the wet streets of Shadeport.  Passers by saw her deadly silhouette lead a small team through the fairly busy city. But they did not get lost in the crowd.
They surrounded a large bank, carrying various weapons, before violently breaking their way in, threatining lives of many hostages in an attempt  to 'earn' thousands in just one evening.

As you probably guessed, this evil attack only saw the team of ruthless robbers arrested and sent to prison.
Sadly though, a young employee at the bank was killed in the process - causing up-roar in the city and pleads for the robbers to pay life in prison. Thats exactly what was decided.

About 9 months later, the city saw the first snowfall in years on a mysterious Autumn morning.
While everyone played and danced in the snow, the leader of the gang of robbers gave birth to a fairly fragile baby on the cold floors of the prison.

Yeah, you guessed it, that baby was me. Born weighing 6lbs and 5oz, later named Neva. A happy family wasn't awaiting me, though. I was born on these prison floors, and this is where i'd stay.
Atleast, thats what I thought.

They seperated me from my mother almost instantly. You can probably guess why. And an adoption process was started almost just as instantly. How hard would it be to get a beauitiful new born baby girl with the biggest and rarest grey eyes an adopted family?

Lets just say....alot harder than they first thought.
