[piper]

Name: Piper Grayson
Age: 14 years
Appearance: -see picture-

Personality: Prisoner B is a nice guy

Fun. That's all Piper wants from life. A laugh, a smile, a day in the sun. It's all she asks for. This girl loves a good laugh, even at her own expense. She's sort of self depreciating anyways. Of her favorite things, music is one of them. She wishes that she could play an instrument, but she can only sing a little. Of Piper's least favorite things, there is caves. they're too dark and zubats creep Piper out. She's a cool person to hang around, fun-loving in a calm and sensible way.

Piper is friendly in a quiet way. She doesn't run up to you and make you her new friend, but she'll just start talking to you, as if you've known each other for a while, but know nothing about the other. Piper's greatest weakness is that she's terrified of the dark. Even now at 16, she sleeps with a nightlight. When in total darkness, she just freezes up, and silent tears stream down her cheeks. She'll start shivering and the breakdown lasts a little longer even after she's in the light again.


History:
It was supposed to be a perfect family. The beautiful mother and the hardworking father and the child that looked like the mother and was close with her father. It wasn't. Lyle Grayson wasn't the perfect father, though he tried, and Miranda Cobb Grayson was far from the perfect mother, but Piper loved them anyways. Miranda was from the streets, and didn't know much more than fighting. She took out long buried frustrations on Piper until she was beaten just before bloody. Piper didn't care. Lyle wasn't home from his job much, but when he was, he was the favorite. Mommy never hit her when Daddy was home.

Miranda made a mistake one day. Piper had shattered her favorite mirror, the only thing she had left from her mother. At only age 5, Piper was beaten bloody, trying to run but cutting her feet on the broken mirror. Blind with rage, Miranda attacked like a wild creature. Lyle walked in, deciding to stop home for lunch. Seeing his precious daughter being attacked by his wife, he scooped up the little girl and walked out, never saying anything to his wife again.

Now you may have guessed that Miranda was mentally unstable, but if not, now you know. Now listen close, since this is a great clue to why Piper fears the dark. It was five years since she had left her mother, and Piper was happier than ever, traveling with her father all over with his job. Lyle always made time for Piper, as if trying to make up for leaving her home alone for days with the woman who gave birth to her. Lyle had a meeting that ran late into the night, so Piper stayed with his sister, Delilah. Aunt Delilah was like a perfect mother to Piper, having the young girl in bed promptly after ice cream and brownies. Now Piper had never feared the dark until after this night. Miranda crawled through the sleeping girl's window, a drunken, skeletal-looking figure, hovering over her head. Piper rolled over in her half-sleep, opening her eyes to see a zombie mother at her head. She screamed, and Miranda hit her, telling her to shut her mouth, and how she knows Mommy hates the screaming. By then, Delilah had ran to Piper's room along with Owen, her husband, who drove off the mad woman. Piper didn't see her again, but the nightmares didn't leave.

It was four years later, and she still didn't sleep without a light. Concerned for her health, Lyle decided that sending her away to school might ease his beloved daughter's fears. Piper was sent to PA in an effort to forget the past.
