The Triplets' Fighter Luna by Kylie K

Chapter 1

I thought moving to Northern Alaska was going to be a nightmare. And for the most part, it is. It's summer and I'm still wearing a jumper because I moved here a month ago from California with my mother and stepfather. That was a horrid 6 day drive. My stepfather is an alcoholic so my mother had to drive the whole way and they didn't have any money for a motel. So we had to sleep in the car whenever we pulled over.

But I did see a lot of great sites and great forests that would have great hiking trails in Canada. I made a mental note to myself that when I finished my senior year of high school and I got away from these two, I was definitely going to hike my way around Canada. But it would have to be in the summer. I really don't like the cold. And I hear that the sun barely rises in Alaska during winter. You can just see it on the horizon.

I was curious to see what that was like, but I was also curious to see what would happen if I ran away and got the hell out of this hellhole.

I'd given up the fantasy that my father was going to magically appear and take me away from these people that I live with. My mother has always made a point of letting me know that she hates me and she never should have had me. And my stepfather, he's just one in a long line of men that she's been with since I was a baby.

I never met my dad. I always wondered what he was like. But I've never gotten to find out.

But on the bright side, Alaska does have the best hiking trails in the world as far as I'm concerned. And as far as I've seen. I'm only 17 so I haven't seen that many yet. I love the lush green forests, snow capped mountains and the beautiful crystal clear lakes.

I was getting closer to the house everything seemed really quiet, which was a good sign. It meant that either my mother and stepfather were still asleep or they just hadn't done anything to piss each other off yet. But it's only a matter of time. They haven't been married for too long.
