Axe was born happy and healthy to her mother Naylah one late fall evening. Obviously, this would've been a joyous occasion for any new mother and her family. But this was unfortunetly, absolutely not the case. Axelyn Illaine was brought into the world with a pair of small nubs on her head which would be horns she would more than likely quickly grow into, as well as eyes that were completely inhuman; traits that were reminiscent of her incubus father who abandoned Naylah shortly at the beginning of her pregnancy. A lover she wanted nothing more than to keep a secret of, but the cat was out of the bag thanks to Axe's prominent traits. Upon inspection of the new baby, Naylah's family was absolutely outraged that she dare did something as horrendous as reproduce with a demonic force. It didn't take very long for them to cut the young mother and her child off, leaving them both totally alone.

Axe's mother seemed to never feel a connection with her daughter the moment she laid eyes on her. Her family's disapproval along with her successful reputation in the public eye on the line would inevitably be the begining stages to Naylah's spiral downwards with the treatment of her daughter.

From the very early stages of Axelyn's life, it was apparent that her mother tried her hardest to treat her like a dirty little secret that had to be kept from the outside world. Of course, this didn't bother Axe at first. She thought that this was totally normal. Naylah kept her daughter under a homeschooled life, taking her time after work to teach her basic things every few hours of the day. Axe was allowed time to play outside, but only in the backyard, where a large fence lie so no one could see her very well. She was confided to her home to the most part, but any instance where her mother had no choice but to bring her along to run errands, Axe would then be told to wear a hat to cover her developing horns, and instructed to look down at the floor as she walked so she wouldn't look anyone in the eye. This method seemed to work, but only for a few years.

Obviously, any child would start to grow gloomy at the aspect of looking out their window and seeing others your age doing actual normal things. Seeing them getting off and on the school bus every day confused her. Watching them play together made her jealous. Naturally, this is around the time she began confiding her mother with curious questions as to why she couldn't do what the other kids were doing to which she was met with snappy, unreasonable excuses. Axe obviously did not like this at all, none of it made any sense to her. In response to this, Axe began to do things to test the waters of escaping her home, trying to prove if her mothers nonsense was even true. Multiple times Axelyn would walk out the front door and attempt to play with the kids in her neighborhood (she was still reasonable enough to keep the hat on her head funny enough) to which she would be caught and immediately dragged home and berated by her mother every single time. Naylah's attitude towards her seemed to grow more irate than an attitude of a concerned parent every time Axe was caught, and she started to resort to telling her daughter that no one would want to play with her for the way she looked and she was kept inside the house "to be safe". Her words were upsetting and incredibly hurtful, affecting Axe more than she realized. But, she still couldn't help but feel good every time she did something against her mothers wishes. It was definitely a slow awakening for her.

Years began to go by, and Axe was on her way to practically perfecting her method of sneaking out of the house when she wanted. She wouldve wanted to be anywhere but home at this point in her life. Her mother by now was a ticking time bomb of anger with her, and the two were beginning to butt heads more often. Axelyn didn't seem to have a care in the world about her home situation while she was out, though; she ended up making a few friends with some other teenagers in her neighborhood who she started to take a lot of influence from. They were basically known to be total troublemakers in the community, always doing shit to get a rouse out of people. Albeit it took some time for these kids to  convince  Axe to join them on their adventures, but she ended being totally into it. It became routine by now to sneak out at night and meet up with her new group of friends to do something different and increasingly riskier every night- underage drinking, breaking and entering, stealing from the local convenience store, you name it. It was the most alive she's ever actually felt, she she couldn't get enough of it. She never wanted to come home after a night of doing this, as her situation with her mother was becoming to be completely unstable. Naylah wouldn't catch her doing it very often, but she was beginning to realize that Axe was frequently leaving the house. She would have absolute meltdowns at her daughter about this, threatening to bolt her door and windows shut. Even if Axe didn't even seem to do anything wrong, Naylah would find things to berate her with. Her comments about  her daughter's appearance were beginning to be more than a common thing now, as well as expressing how disappointed she was with Axe in general. Nine times out of ten these would always cause a huge argument between the two, Naylah even going so far as to hit Axe a few times over it. It was just an awful situation to be in for her; Axe was absolutely hateful of her own appearance by now as a result of all of the constant remarks she would hear. It didn't help that she had no healthy outlet to express her frustrations about it all, either.

Even if she didn't really seem to think about it much, Axe slowly began to take out all of her sorrows during her rebellious adventures when she'd sneak out. As time continued to fly by, her actions began to grow more extreme. She started frequenting parties and doing a lot of regrettable things, destroying public property, getting into fights; hell, she was even bold enough to start sneaking booze and cigarettes into her own house. Sure, a lot of her behavior was due to her unmanageable situation back at home that she couldn't seem to escape from. But she didn't seem to care anymore. This lifestyle was just so much fun to her, and just overall way more appealing. She needed a plan to get out of her home, and fast. She wasn't sure how much she could take of it anymore.  Luckily, she already had a plan, though; Axe managed to find a group of people doing their own little fight club. It was honestly kind of a garbage way to get cash, but what other choice did she have?
She began a routine of sneaking out, beating up people and winning money for it, going home and dealing with her unstable mother, and then repeating the process. The plan was essentially to make enough money to be able to pack her stuff and run away from home, far enough so that her mother would not find her. Which, didn't take very long for her to achieve at all.

Axe waited for a night where her mother would leave to go to a business party. The moment she saw her mothers car drive down the street, she took the biggest bag she could, packed up as much of her important belongings as possible, and just left. This was honestly incredibly scary for her; but inevitably it was a choice that later in life, she did not regret in the slightest. She simply used some of her money to take a bus to the next few towns over, and she left. It was definitely a huge weight that was lifted off of her chest. It felt good to finally be free and given a chance of a life she's always wanted.

It took her a very long time in her now young adulthood to get in the position she was now. She just continued to do what she did best; make sketchy street friends, couch surf a bunch, and fight people for money. Along the way she started her healing process of being more comfortable with her appearance. No longer wearing hats, and cutting up her own hair. She had no one to be afraid of for judging her anymore, although albeit the insecurities were going to take a long time for her to get over. It took a while, but she did manage to get where she is now. Axe is extremely content with where she's at; though  her life now probably isnt exactly ideal in most people's eyes. But quite frankly, she's perfectly fine now being a total loser and societal reject if it means she never gets to go through what happened to her again.
