Chapter Text
I wake up to the sound of my alarm. Ugh. I hate school. I'm bullied by everyone and only have one friend. Her name is Cari and she's very nice. Sighing, I throw back my light pink blankets and get out of bed. I look around the room. The walls are painted purple and are covered in Spice Girls posters. I was born in the wrong generation.
I sigh as a put my curly brown hair into a messy bun. I look into the mirror at my deep sapphire orbs. I'm startled out of my daydreaming (ugh) by my mum yelling at me.
"Y/N! Get down here!"
"Coming!" I yell back.
She must be sober for once, mum was never up this early. I throw on a short hot pink skirt, fishnets and a black halter-neck top.
I grab my backpack and I stomp downstairs and into the living room.
"What do you want?" I huff.
"I sold you to a band."
"What!?" I demand.
"I sold you to the Mechanisms. They're your owners now."
"Who is that??"
"We're the Mechanisms." A voice booms from the doorway.
I look over and gasp. Standing there is the most handsome man I've ever seen. He has long flowy brown hair and beautiful emerald orbs. Around his eyes is cool black spidery eyeliner. He's wearing a white shirt with a brown waistcoat and, like, five different belts. Behind him are other people dressed kind of similarly.
"I sold you for drug money." My mum says. "You're a burden and I need the money. They're your owners now."
"I don't want to be sold to some band with weird outfits!" I stomp my feet.
"You don't have a choice, I don't want you anymore."
"Fine! I didn't care about you anyway!" I scream.
I stomp after the Mechanisms as they leave my house. No, it's not my house anymore. I belong to them now.
"Where are you taking me?" I ask.
"The Aurora." The cute guy (his name's Jonny!!) says. "That's where we live. It's your new home now."
The Aurora is actually a really big spaceship. It's super cool, I've never seen a real spaceship before. It's really big and Jonny says that the ship is alive? That's kind of creepy. We go into the spaceship and it's really big inside. The insides are made of metal but it's also kind of cosy. I like it better than my old house. As I'm staring at me new home all of the Mechanisms turn to stare at me.
"What?" I demand.
A guy made out of metal walks over to me and puts his hand on my shoulder. "Hey, it's ok. You don't have to deal with your terrible mum anymore. You're safe with us."
Jonny nodded. "We're your family now."
A person with red hair steps forwards. "I'm Ashes. I'm the quartermaster. Do you want to pick out a room?" I nod and follow them as they walk away from the rest of the band. I pick out a room far away from everyone else's. I bet they're all super loud, I don't want to be disturbed by them while I'm trying to sleep.
Ashes leaves and I sigh. The room is super plain but I can change that. I throw my bag on the floor, tears in my eyes. I have a new home. A new family.
