When Liam was was very young, his sister and mother began to notice that something was very different about the boy. Liam had a secret life, one he only shared with his sister Regan, and one he only displayed at night. Liam is a trans-gender. He believes that he was born in the wrong body, the body of a boy, when all he really wants is to be a girl. Regan knows that because of his "situation" he could get hurt, he even attempted suicide once. Regan knows her brother needs to change, but when he displays himself in public, she is embarrassed by him and even says that he is ruining her life. All her life, Regan has been catering to Luna (Liam's chosen name). What happens during this trying time for Luna could be the deciding factor between staying hidden, or changing.
