Chloe ran home from the errands her mother had sent her to do. "Bonjour, Madame Lacyann! Bonjour, Monsieur L'Angley!"
"Bonjour, Collette!" they replied, waving at the 4 year old.
The little blonde child was always doing something for her mother, Avelaine, even though she was young.
Chloe smiled then hurried, holding the loaves of bread she bought with her mother's money carefully as she ran. The clock hit 5:30 and the little girl ran faster, stumbling into the orphanage from how fast she ran in.
"Mom, I'm back!" Chloe called, looking around for her.
Avelaine walked over with her hands on her hips. "Collette, you were 30 minutes late!"
Chloe frowned and handed her the bread. "Sorry, mom... I got held up with Monsieur Lovell. He asked about the orphanage."
"Monsieur Lovell? What did he ask?" Avelaine asked, eyes widening.
"He asked about you and the kids in the orphanage," Chloe explained.
"I have told you not to talk to that man!" Avelaine huffed in frusteration. "He has it out for me, Collette! Who did he ask about??"
"You, me, and Ellaine," Chloe answered, frowning.
Avelaine gave her a look and crossed her arms. "Collette! Go to your room... No supper tonight!"
Chloe frowned, but knew better than to argue. She walked out of the room and upstairs, past the girls eavesdropping. Ellaine frowned and picked her up, taking her upstairs with the other girls.
"Don't worry, I'll try to sneak you some food, okay?" Ellaine whispered, hugging the small girl closely.
Chloe frowned and nodded, hugging her back and sniffing. "Thanks... Why is mom so mean...?"
Ellaine sighed. "I don't know, Chloe... I wish I did."

Chloe sat in the plane, frowning. Her mother has gotten rid of her... She was being sent somewhere with strange people. But something went wrong... The strange looking ship crashed in the city. Her captors escaped before the people showed up, but she was stuck. She was captured by the FBI and held inside. She was shivering and cold. She refused to talk to the strange people interrogating her... They were scary and Chloe was cold and hungry.
...but the little girl's life drastically changed for the better when Julia walked in, responding to a call in Steven's place.
