My name is Phoenix lacy am a twelve year old girl born into the family of commander lacy . who is my father . my mom died when I was three years old in a car accident just for my sake. when l was born l was born with a birthmark that was rather weird it looked like a Phoenix . my father was not in the important moments in my memories when l was little . so my mom always took care of me when l was little . we lived on a small farm in the outskirts of a city called cloud city we grew our food and were always happy even though my mom was called names because she was a single mother we had each other which was enough for the two of us. with mom every thing was great. mom always kept tack of how I was growing and taught me how I could be a great person . holidays were awesome . mostly Christmas we would always light fire crackers . the birthdays I celebrated with my mom were the happiest ones I ever had because my mom always told me about the story of the magical Phoenix and it was always an interesting . we would then eat cake as my mom waited for my dad to show up but he never did so mom was always sad so l would I would try to cheer her up by trying to do the splits. and she always laughed and told me if l have a goal l should never give up . on rainy days l was scared of lightning so l would sleep with my mom, she would tell me stories that other beings existed . as long l was with my mom l was happy while l was two mom started teaching me how to fight a little and we started growing more crops and saving more money l didn't know why but mom was happy that's all that mattered . on one rainy day when l caught a cold my mom left the went out to get herbs fro! her herb garden as l got out of bed. l heard mom talking to some one at the door . the person outside told my mom that she should take me home . but l didn't understand so l went back to bed . a few days later l got better but l saw mom pack a few books , jewellery and maps of hers and put it in small chest and she handed them over to me with a smile she then took off her neck less and gave it to me saying don't ever take it off .
