Chapter 1: My Weird Life
You may think me weird, but for my whole life, everyone has told me that I can do anything. I don't know the reason, just that many say I am gifted, but in what kind of way? Is being different cause me to be gifted? I don't get that logic. Well, I'm an ordinary teenager, with dark brown hair and silver-like blue eyes. I always think of myself as normal, but that, I found, was totally wrong.
It was a normal day, not any different from the rest. I had gone to school and come home to a loving family. I had what was called the "perfect life" as some say. I am an only child that, let me say, am spoiled, and I like it that way. It's not my fault that I don't have any brothers or sisters right? Okay, I could be less greedy, but still…
The weird thing about myself is that I was born with blonde hair, but it somehow turn brown. How do I know that? Because my hair is freaking BROWN! Okay, I'm calm. I have heard of many cases where that can happen, and it might happen everyday, but come one, that's freaky! Another weird thing is that I have gone out with a lot of guys, but I haven't ever fallen in love. I find that really odd, especially since I've gone out with plenty of hot and built guys. Even some men have asked me out, and that does a lot to make me feel good on some days.
I think I'm a normal girl because I like music and movies, like Phantom of the Opera. I also like to read. I love romance novels! And yet, I am different from the rest. My life, since I can remember, has been weird and yet normal, if that's at all possible, but it's true. I'm not the most skinny girl in school and I don't have the prettiest hair, toes, nails, butt, etc. I'm me, and that's all that matters!
I thought it a regular day in Manhatten, like I've already said except the Manhatten part; and I know I'm odd, that's why I'm telling this story! I was walked past the graveyard when I saw a huge light beam spark from one of the statues. I am very nosy, so I just had to find out what it was. I crept into the cemetery and found nothing. Not a broken lamp, or someone walking around. What was that? So I started to head out, when I heard someone approach me from behind. I shot around, but no one was there. This really started to freak me out! I walked on, a little faster than last time, and then the sound came again. I turned around, and still NOTHING!
So I then ran toward the North Gate, and this time, the thing that was following me kept the same pace. I grabbed a stick nearby and swung around. I hit the person! Yes! Do you think it'd be good? No, it wasn't. I had hit an old man. He wore a huge pointy hat, and let me just say, grey is not the color that's in this year, and he had a lot of it!
"Oh my gosh! I am so sorry! I thought you were stalking me!" I explained with a hint of sadness in my voice.
"It's okay. It's not a bad thing you aren't good at hitting people. I'm sorry. I shouldn't have shocked you like that." The old man replied. Wait a second! He shouldn't be apologizing, should he?
"Why are you here sir?" I asked curiously.
"I am here to find you." The man told. My heart fell and leapt at the same time that moment.
