"John and Amy Greene" appeared to outsiders to be your average, middle class American family. They had lived in a nondescript, suburban development for seventeen years, since their only child, Kathleen, was less than one year old. The neighbors did talk from time to time, about how little it seemed the Greenes tried to get their daughter involved in activities with other youths, but still, they seemed normal and nice enough. It wasn't as if they kept her completely isolated. Tutors came into the house for music lessons with her, she went to public school, and they went out and did things as a family quite often, taking a nice vacation once a year.
What lay beneath the surface was that the 'Greenes' were in fact paid operatives of the Sensus society. This organization spent fortunes ensuring that no members of the general public knew who they were. Some of their operatives paid off single mothers who wanted to give their daughters up for adoption. They assured the mothers, always pretty women, that their daughters would be adopted by a wealthy couple who wanted to adopt 'off the books'. The girls were raised by operatives such as the 'Greenes', who were under contract for two million dollars each, for their services. Their task was simple: to raise the girl to be pure, chaste, and naive, until she was eighteen, when she would be turned over to one of the society's facilities.
The tasks they had to complete in the meantime were minimal. A short monthly report had to be submitted to Sensus each month summarizing the month's activities. Starting at age fourteen, yearly photos were submitted to the society to show the girl's development. To serve the society's purposes, these had to be taken in the nude, which was accomplished by a hidden camera in the bathroom. Now, as her eighteenth birthday approached, their work was nearly complete, almost time to collect their small fortunes. Kathleen's future would involve dropping off the face of the earth, along with her parents, and being held in one of the society's secret facilities, to satisfy the whims and pleasures of whichever wealthy customer purchased her, prices starting at twenty million dollars to own a Sensus girl.
