When I woke up I was scared of myself because I looked like a monster. I have scales on my body and I never liked my eyes because every time the people in white would look at me for the first time they all looked and acted weird around me. It was as if they were scared of me or just the sight of me was scary. Whenever I see people I always put my head down. I even let my hair grow out so it can cover my eyes and the scales on my face. After seeing how people look at you like if you're a monster you can never get those faces out of your head. Insecurities start to grow and all you want to do is hide away where no one can see you. But the day I meet Sensei was the day I felt good for the way I looked.

After I woke the people in white took me to a door and it opened and lead out to a grass field with a pond and a tree. It was a big area and they just left me there. I didn't mind them leaving me because I like being alone. I could do what I want without anyone judging me or telling me what to do. I remember running to the tree and climbing it to the top. I would mess around with my ability when I touch new things. I already knew how to use it so I would blend into anything new to see how it looked on my skin. I think that was the only thing I liked about me, how I could change my skin color. I love the way colors blend and create another color. Everything about color is beautiful and emotional. I say emotional because I use colors to let people know how I feel. People often use colors and connect them to colors and so do I on my scales.

Anyways back to the tree and meeting sensei. After just messing around with my ability the door opened again, but this time it was a man but he wasn't dressed in white. He looked strong and had a tank-top on and some army pants. He walked up to the tree and asked me to come down so he could get a good look at me. I jumped down and stood up with my head down and hair covering my eyes. He told me to stand up straight and did what I was told but still with my hair in my face. He looked to be getting a little frustrated and came up to me and brushed my hair out of my face so he could look me in the eyes.

Sensei-

¨I don't know why you cover your eyes for they look like shiny marbles to me.¨

When he said that I was so happy that he thought I didn't look like a monster and liked the colors of my eyes. I was so happy that I hugged him and said thank you to him so many times and cried.

The people in white said I had heterochromia which means that I have two different colored eyes. I was made like that I guess. I never liked them because when I look at others people's eyes their both the same color. I guess I'm just born to be a monster.
