About the Author I was born on Wednesday, October 7, 1964, at 1:56pm to Mr. and Mrs. George H. Devlin Jr., and was born in Somers Point hospital Somers Point, New Jersey and lived in Egg Harbor Twp. and Pleasantville, New Jersey all my life. In and out of foster homes for about seven years, until my stepmother (Mabel Ann Devlin) found me and my twin brother and brought us home where I lived with my stepmother, my father, my twin brother, one of my stepsisters, my half-sister, and my half-brother; I have four sisters, three brothers from my real mother and two step sisters from my stepmother's first marriage and one-half sister and one-half brother. I went to EHT Schools where I took basic studies, Nursing, Paralegal, Criminal Justice, Forensics Science and a course in creative writing. I worked at many casinos, hotels, Warehouses and many other places. I was married on the 15th of June in 1996 to a man I met at one of the casinos I worked at, after saying no for ten years of him asking me to marry him, I finally broke down and asked Kenneth Leon Curtis to marry me; he said yes. We have two beautiful daughters name Saundra Gail and Tiffany Kenya, and a handsome son from his first girlfriend name Kenneth Leon Jr. We have three grandchildren who are my shining star in my eyes; Jasir, Nevaeh, and Maliya. I have always shown interest in writing and drawing. My imagination is unique; if I say so myself. I have put my interests on hold to raise my family and now I can pick up my interests again and do what makes me happy; besides my family that is, writing.

THE DAY CHRISSIE’S LIFE CHANGED
I N THE NIGHT, deep in the woods, you can hear her cry to the big silver moon in the sky telling her sad story to all who would listen. I know her well both now and then, for you see, she was and still is my baby sister and this is her story.
It started back in May of 1973 in D.C. Maryland. Chrissie was a 5ft, 3in, 95lb, and a 13-year-old girl, with dark honey brown hair and beautiful brown eyes to match, very smart and a curious young girl and with a teenage attitude to match.
On this particular day, Chrissie and her schoolmates went to the Baltimore Zoo in Baltimore Maryland for an end of the school year field trip and this is where it all began. While Chrissie and her friends were having fun walking and talking about anything and everything they heard a strange noise coming from an open door and, like all young curious children they went inside to see what was making that noise. The room was semi-lit. There was a deck, some small empty cages and one very large metal cage with no bars; in fact, the only opening was a mail size stilt for an opening.
This is where the noise was coming from, some kind of a creature was inside and it was crying, scared and hurt. Chrissie being true to herself and not liking any kind of creature being hurt or mistreated wanted to help it, so she went over to the cage to see what she can do to help and see what was inside but to her surprise the creature reached out and scratched her upper right arm with a very long and sharp claws.
Ouch, she cried, that hurts! Someone’s coming! Yelled Jackie one of her friends. Let’s hide! Yelled, Brooklyn another one of her friends. So the girls hid under the desk and waited. In walked five men, one wore a doctor’s white lab coat; the other men wore blue jeans and black t-shirts. The man in the coat told the others to take the large metal cage to Mandeville New York Research Center and put it in room 213 and be very careful not to let it touch you or it well hurt you badly and I would have to kill you for your own good and for the safety of others, do I make myself clear? Said the man in the coat. Yeah, yeah we hear ya said a short stocky man. Hey doc, are you going to meet us in New York? Asked a very tall skinny man. Yes, but not right away so put the cage in my lab and make sure to lock up and be sure not to be seen doing so, said the man in the coat and with that he turned and walked out of the room.
The four men got to work on moving the cage, but first, they shoot a dart into the cage to put the creature to sleep so they can move the cage. The girls waited for
