Author's Note: This is my 50th story! Yay! Okay, I will update this story once a week. Mondays. It might be just when the clock hits twelve (In the west coast, CA). Or before it hits midnight of that night. I have a few chapters done, and this will give me a chance to have more completed before I get to the end. So you wouldn't have to wait too long. I will update Knight's Killer, some one-shots here and there. I'm really excited for this story, and I hope you guys enjoy.

P.S. The chapter titles are the main point of view in the story. So this chapter is Paige/Saraya's Point of you. Just to let you guys know, she will be called by both, it'll make more sense when as you read the story. Seth, Dean, Roman, and Punk will make an appearance next chapter.

At the end of the chapters is a line for the next chapter, a small, really small preview if you will.

SARAYA-JADE BEVIS stared at the paper. It was all that was left from her family. Her family that had just been killed, they were just murdered. The same family that had kept her hidden her whole life. She was last in the Bevis family. She was all that was left. She was the only one that could bring them justice, after what happened.

She read the six words, written in her mother's handwriting. It was covered in blood, her family's blood.

Only until death will you know.

Saraya frowned, not sure what the message meant. She knew there were things from her family that she didn't know. They held secrets, kept them from her. They kept the secret from her. She looked around and searched the house. She needed to leave. She needed to get away. She didn't know if she was in danger. She stuffed a backpack and left. She left and never turned back.

Four Years Later

Saraya had been in America for two years. She had gotten a job, and was making a decent living. She lived with her best friends, whom she met when she first arrived in America, after spending two years traveling all of Europe.

Saraya, who was about to celebrate her twentieth birthday, spent morning and some of the afternoon alone in her room. It had been four years since her family's murder. Four years since leaving her house with a secret she didn't know about. Nothing was found about her family's murder. The murderers were never found. It was easy for Saraya to disappear. No one knew about her. Her mother was able to keep her pregnancy hidden. She had no contact except for her parents and three siblings. Other than those five people, she had not met anyone else, not even grandparents or aunts and uncles.

She sighed. She placed her hands on the back of her head and stared at the ceiling. She closed her eyes, and tried to forget about what had happened, about what her life had led up to.

"Paige?" A voice whispered, as if they were afraid of waking her up. Saraya opened her eyes and looked at her doorframe and smiled at her blond friend. Her roommates knew that she was not a morning person, and she was horrible after she woke up, from a nap or a night sleep. They were always cautious around her and she usually found it funny.

"Yes Summer?" Saraya asked, her eyes lighting up. After arriving in America, she decided to have a fresh start. She had changed her name. To the world, she was known as Paige Britani Knight, but to herself, she would always be known as Saraya-Jade Bevis.

"Emma, AJ, and I are going out to eat, we were wondering if you wanted to go with us?" The blond asked, a soft smile on her face. Saraya could see the hopefulness in her face.

Her three best friends. She knew a lot about them, but they barely knew anything about her. They told her things, and she barely told them anything. They knew nothing about her, and whatever they did wasn't really real. What they did know was her attitude, the way she acted, that was the only real thing about her. The only thing they knew about her.

Summer Rae, she was the one who came up to Saraya. Saraya had just gotten out of the plane, had left the airport. She was walking around Los Angeles, not sure what she was looking for. She had bumped into a blond woman. All her things fell. Summer was the first to help her. Emma and AJ soon followed. Once all of Saraya's things were picked up, she looked at the three. They all looked different. They all seemed to have different personalities, and it made her smile.

Summer had asked for her name. After a while, she just blurted out that her name was Paige. Summer nodded and asked about her luggage. When she told them that she had just arrived, they offered her a room. One of their roommates had moved out, and they had space. After thinking about it, Saraya accepted.

Emma Dashwood was Australian. And it made Saraya happy to know that she wasn't the only one that was international. Emma told her that she had been in America for two years. Since she was nineteen. She had met Summer, and they hit it off.

April Jeanette Mendez preferred to be called AJ. She was the prime owner of the apartment. She met Summer and Emma when they were apartment searching. She had previous roommates that she had gotten annoyed of. Summer and Emma were able to get through to her, and along with another roommate, had made it a year living there, before meeting Saraya.

"Paige? Are you going to join us?" Summer asked, giving the raven-haired girl a soft smile. Summer looked hopeful. Saraya didn't go out much. She usually spent the day in her room. Summer, Emma, and AJ would have to convince Saraya to go out with them.

Saraya nodded. She stood up, ready to follow her friend out. She wanted to spend the day with them. Especially with the emotions that she would be feeling when it was getting close to those days. She just wanted to be around people. She just wanted to hang out, feel like she belonged.

Saraya stared at her untouched hamburger. She could feel the stares of her three friends. She picked up a fry and used it to poke her burger. She remembered her mother scolding at her for doing that, but then her brother would challenge her into a French fry duel. It made her miss them even more.

"Paige, are you okay?" Emma asked, her Australian accent thick. She could hear the worry in her voice, and it touched her heart.

It had taken Saraya months to response to that name. She would forget that she gave them that name, and would think they were talking to someone else. But now, it was second nature to her.

She looked up when she heard her name. She smiled softly and nodded, "I'm fine."

"Are you sure? You haven't touched your food," AJ pressed, a frown on her face. It took her a while, but AJ did warm up to Saraya. AJ wasn't used to having many friends, and it made Saraya smile, because she was the same in her own way.

Saraya shrugged. "Just thinking, ya know?"

"About what?" AJ asked, wanting to know more about the girl in front of her.

"My family." Was all she said. She continued to "stab" her hamburger.

Summer, Emma, and AJ looked at each other. They all looked shocked. Saraya smirked while she looked down. She didn't talk about her family. Not to anyone. Heck, the three girls didn't know her birthday, or her age. They did know her hometown. They did know little things.

"What about your family?" Emma asked, cautiously. She told them she had both parents, and three siblings. She didn't give them their names or anything else about them. She just described them, it made her feel closer to them.

"I'm just wondering how they are," she lied. She didn't want to tell them the truth. She didn't want to ruin anything.

"Why don't you tell us anything?" Summer asked, hurt in her voice.

Saraya looked at her, a frown on her face. She didn't really understand. But then again, she never had friends before. It was just her and her family. She was lucky to have made friends so quickly, and good ones.

"What do you want to know?" Saraya questioned, not sure what else to do, to say. She didn't want to tell them a lot, not what she want to keep hidden.

"How old are you? I find it weird that we've known you for two years, and we don't know that. If it weren't for the fact that you've shown us nothing to make us not trust you, I would have thrown you out," AJ told the Brit. Saraya grinned at that. She never told them how old she was. She would just change the subject. After a while, it was a game for her. She wanted to see how long it would for them to get frustrated and give up. But now, she didn't care. She was going to tell them.

Saraya smiled, "I'm nineteen."

The three women stared at her in shock. They had expected for her to be an older age. AJ was twenty-five, Summer was twenty-eighteen, and Emma was twenty-three.

"You were seventeen when we met you?" Emma asked in surprise.

Saraya frowned, while she thought about and answer.. She then looked at them and shook her head. "No, I was eighteen. It hasn't been officially two years since we've met."

"When is your birthday?" Summer inquired, hoping she'd get a real answer. Other times she would ask that question, she would get vague answers. She would always give them an amount, never a date. Saraya would have fun with it.

"Two weeks," Saraya told them, keeping up with her vague answers.

"Two weeks? Can't you just tell us the date?" Emma asked, pleaded. Saraya stared at her, before nodding.

Saraya smiled. "August seventeenth."

"So, you'll be twenty in two weeks?" AJ asked, as she stated the obvious.

Anyone else would have been angry, but Saraya didn't mind. She just nodded.

"What about your family? Don't they miss you?" Summer questioned, a frown on her face.

Saraya frowned, as she tried to think of something to say. "We had a fallout. Before I left. We haven't really talked since," she lied, wishing it were truth. She wanted to see her family again. She knew that she was not going to see her family again, as long as she was alive. She had contemplated death before, but her family died for her, and she couldn't let their death go to vain.

Summer nodded. Not sure what else to say. Emma and AJ looked stumped.

Saraya looked at them, a small smile on her face. "Can we go home? I-I kind of want to catch up on some sleep. I've had late night shifts this week."

Emma nodded. "Of course. We'll just get a to-go box for you."

Saraya nodded. She watched Emma walk to the cash register.

"Do you ever think of going home?" Summer asked, after a few minutes of silence.

The younger woman shook her head, pain shooting through her heart. "There's nothing there for me."

She watched AJ and Summer exchange looks. Once Emma arrived, the four walked to their home. Saraya walked behind them. She gently touched the locket around her neck. Her parents gave it to her the last birthday she celebrated with them. She smiled softy.

She looked up and smiled at her friends. She was going to celebrate her life, for her family. She heard people calling her name. She looked up and smiled at her friends. They had arrived home. Saraya placed her food in the refrigerator and went to bed.

It was past three in the morning. Saraya was looking through her laptop. She was searching "Bevis Family, Norwich, England." She had been searching for an hour. She hadn't found much. She only found articles talking about the death. Julia Hamer-Bevis, Ian Bevis, Roy Bevis, Nicole Bevis and Zak Bevis. There was nothing on the last Bevis child, there was nothing on her. She was a secret, just like her mother wanted.

She looked at the picture of her family. All five of them were there, she wasn't. It always hurt her that she was always left out. She knew her family meant well, but there wasn't a lot with her on them. As far as everyone was concerned, she didn't exist, and she never would. She sighed and rubbed her face.

For the first time since that day, she cried. She cried for everyone and everything. For the first time, she let her guard down.

She just hoped she would get her guards up before the party Summer was planning to throw.
