## Background

Zoey was born in secrecy, and was abandoned by her birth parents as they wanted a boy. She was subsequently raised by a neutral adoptive single parent until one fateful day she was kidnapped, raised, and abused, raped and blamed for everything that she didn't do nonstop by narcissistic and entitled step-parents and step-aunt. Her only light during that time was her older step-brother and the neighbors who she took refuge with while hiding in their houses, who treated her kindly and gave her encouragement. Her step-brother hated his parents and aunt for abusing him, using him as a clone/personal punching bag/personal tool, and treating him like an award and her step-uncle is aware of the abuse but is too cowardly to resolve it, neglecting Zoey and her step-brother because of it.

One day, unfortunately, he was killed by the adults for his kindness towards Zoey, which threatened to cut off their narcissistic supply, as well as for rebelling against them and threatening to report them. The nonstop abuse and rape continued, even murdering some neighbors who tried to help her. In short, she went through Hell.

That was, until the step-parents, in their arrogance, was caught in the act and almost killing her. The cops were called on them, and they were arrested. The step-parents tried to bribe them, as well as frame her for the crimes, but failed, with attempted bribery and attempted framing added to the charges. They were also charged for the murder of their neighbors. The step-uncle was also arrested for failure to reporting the crimes, a fitting price to pay for his cowardice.

After hospitalization she was given over to a foster family, the McAlisters, who are involved in the military. They were rather strict with her, but not abusively so, and were fair to her. Because of their influence, she gained more confidence in herself, as well as an interest in heavy weaponry and their destructive potential.
