What am I? I'm a monster, a demon and a killer. I never wanted to be, it wasn't my choice but it is how I was born, I didn't ask to bare these eyes, the eyes of a demon. I hide what I am, I hide among you, among you all, people see me every day and yet they do not, on the outside I look the same as everyone around me, just another face, that's all I am, until I show my true nature.
What is my name? My name is Bloom and I am a barer of the Alpha Stigma, a magical eye, the strongest of them all by far and just as despised. Others with eyes like mine are put down like dogs. We hide what we are, do not harm anyone but when we reveal ourselves even to save another all would turn on us, friends, family it all adds up to the same thing for one of us, someone else to kill us.
Today is my second first day at Alfea, I was kept back because of my weak magical abilities, academically I am one of the strongest students and as such I baffle my teachers, my knowledge is almost without rival yet even the weakest of students can defeat me in battle, despite the face I know more advanced spells. I have no choice but to hide what I am, I can not risk anyone seeing my eyes.
I am currently stood in line to enter through the main gates and much like last year, Ms Griselda was taking a register, ensuring no one who hasn't enrolled gets in and that gaps left by no shows can be quickly filled before classes get too deep into the curriculum. She glances at me and raises an eyebrow, a scowl upon her face as usual.
"I see you have returned Bloom" Griselda greeted, her scowl never fading.
"Of course" I reply with false confidence, every day I have to put on this act, I must blend in, I can't draw attention to myself.
"Well, perhaps this year you will grow stronger" Griselda replied, if only she knew just how powerful I truly was, she ticks me off her list.
"Perhaps" I reply before walking past her, already knowing where my dorm was, my parents had already been informed that it was the same as before, the only difference would be my roommates and that I was glad for.
Dorm…
I entered the dorm and the main living area of it was empty and so I headed to my single, one of the few things my parents did for me was make sure I had my own room like I had requested, the minute I entered I glanced at the four poster bed before dumping my case on the floor and slumping on to the chair at my desk.
'Another year of hell' I sigh to myself, unsure how long I will be able to continue like I have been.
A/N This is an idea that struck me today and I thought I might give it a shot, I have a couple scenes planned but no real plot yet, any suggestions would be appreciated and I would love to hear if you think I should continue this fic, plz review.
