My adoptive father lured me outside and deliberately threw me in front of a vicious fighting dog. The dog tore through my nerves. That was when I stopped feeling pain. After that, I grew even quieter, like a puppet only following orders. When my real parents finally found me and brought me home, Jessica Carter, who had taken my place over the years, wouldn't let me in. She pressed a fruit knife to her wrist. "If she comes in, I'll kill myself right here!" she cried. She was sobbing, but the blade had only scratched the surface. I walked over, expressionless, and took the knife from her. "Jessica, let me help you," I said. Then, with precision, I sliced open her artery, and blood gushed out. Mom and Dad stared at me in unison, terror written all over their faces.
