I was born Miranda Leigh Archer on the 17th of November 1997 in
Detroit Michigan to Maxwell Archer and Penny Markham, a woman who at
the time was only a one-night-stand. She was Glasswalker and he was
their kin, unaware of what he was. Little did Penny know, but she was
preggo with me when she snuck out on Pops that night. She, of course,
found out quick enough, and when I was born she attached some sort
of spirit to me to watch me, and then left me on my father's door
step with a "dear baby daddy" letter.
You see my mother didn't
want me, she's not the maternal sort, that woman. So, I grew up without
what most girls take for granted. Do I know her? Yes, Now I do. Do I
love her? No, but i do give her the respect she is due. She cared
in her own way. at least enough to see that my father and I were
protected and never truly wanted for anything when sending big
spenders my father's way.
Pops, for his part, adored me upon
first setting eyes on me, or so my family likes to tease that gruff old
man. They say that there was no way he could have ever denied me; I
look just like his mother; he doted on me; and made sure that i knew
that I was loved. I grew up happy, even growing up with out a female
role model, I was one of the "boys" and I was fine with that.
My
cousins and I, played hard, we were all wild, rough, and tumble;
like there was some part of us that was just that, wild. And, oh man,
was I ever a scrappy little kid, getting sent home from school for
beating up stupid bullies. my cousins taught me to fight and taught me
that i should never just allow anyone to hurt me or others, and that I
should stand up for those weaker than myself. I could throw a mean
punch, but it always got me detention.
