1 Prologue

I knew from the night I turned two, I was different from the others. Unlike them I didn't crave attention and I noticed things that others don't. I always wanted to be alone and I'm highly intelligent, so I have to find new things for complete (like puzzles with 1000 or 5000 pieces). I study and read in the orphanage library all the time, researching about the unknown and what we can't see with the human naked eye. I hate being around people because it makes me think I'm not human and the matrons try to get me to socialize which make me angry. I love gardens and flowers, so I try to keep them maintained and ask the matrons if they need help.

The other children are scared of me because of my looks (black hair and red eyes), but more because of my anger. People are starting to call me the monster, problem child or demon. I just want them to call me by my name and it's Zero Shiken.

I'm really strong when I'm angry, also I break things and tend to shout at matrons. I always go outside to calm down, near my garden that I take care of and sometimes I don't calm down till I destroy something. I get afraid a lot now, because of the way people look at me. I tell them to stop staring, but they don't. I run away to my room and have a cry because I hate pity.

But I want to change what they think of me, their views, but when I try it happens every single time I go up to a kid. I try and be nice, say hello to them, but then they scream at me and say arrhhhhh monster and runs away. I'm better off alone, so why do I even bother.
