Chapter 1: Evelyn

Do you ever think about how other people see you? How they see your face and the expressions you make. Do they feel the same way you do? Thinking almost the exact same, that your expressions are shy and that you look uncomfortable where ever you are. Or do they think something else? That your face always has a soft expression and that your smile is always calm and relaxed. No matter how many times I think about it I know that I'll never get a direct answer. Either I ask and hope that the person gives me an honest answer or I think about the way they act towards me. If they seem uncomfortable around me or feel like they can tell me anything. And based on those behaviors I guess what they think of me. But I know that the answer I get won't always be the truth. So I accept that I'll never really know. If their smile is fake and they think that I'm not worth anything I'll never know unless I confront them, but knowing me that'll never happen. So accepting is all I can do for now. While I wait for the courage to ask.

I think of this whenever I talk at anyone. I see their faces and I think of what I see in front of me. Thinking if I really like the person I'm talking to. But I don't want them to know so I put on a fake smile and laugh with them even if I don't like them. But I always end up thinking of how they see me. And all those thoughts come flooding in.

But seeing myself in the mirror now, with my messy brown hair and light green eyes I realize that I don't care that much what they think of me. I'll never change no matter how many times someone tells me to. So I walk out of my house ready for a new day in a place that I'll never forget.

"Oh wait I almost forgot!" I tell myself before closing the door. I run back inside and take a small camera and put it inside my small green bag. Again I walk outside my house. This time not forgetting anything. And I ride alongside the dirt path past the green forest's on my horse before after almost an hour reaching Star City where my new life will begin.

Standing on top of a mountain overlooking Star City. The city is larger than I expected. I couldn't see the end of the old looking stone houses and people all with smiles on their faces. But what grabbed my attention was the towering building in the middle of the city. It was the same as any other building in the city but it was taller than any and had purple banners with a golden rose on one large tower in the middle on a castle looking building surrounding it. This was my new school, Star Academy. The school that only accepts some of the most promising students to go there and study in a curriculum of their choosing with instructors who are the best in their respective fields.

After a long walk, I went to the gates of the school. There was a large group of students surrounding the wooden gates all trying to get into the academy where they would study. Eventually it was my turn.

"Name?" Said an old looking woman at the entrance of the gates.

"Umm, Evelyn Snowfall," I said shyly looking down on the floor, avoiding the harsh stare of the old lady.

"Your dorm number is three-fifty. Here's a map, and make sure you don't get lost." The old lady said while handing me a map of the academy.

After I got the map I quickly entered the academy. 'This is where my new life will begin. And I'll finaly get my revenge.'
