In one small, quite dimly lit room with crumbling walls sits a girl, her long, matted dark hair falling to the floor as she cries. By the looks of her, she appears to be six possibly seven. That would be me, Evelyn of Britannia, right before I was adopted by the wonderful Harada family. Most people just call me Eve for short. Left behind and forgotten in the Shinjuku Ghetto by my amazing father; you know Charles, the Emperor of Britannia. Although Father may have been Britannian my mother was not, she was Japanese; though with enough effort, she passed as an Italian. Father still found out though, like he always does, and he doesn't want the family to be "weakened" with the disgusting blood of the "elevens"; days after my mom was shot and I was packaged and shipped away just because I happen to be half "eleven", as the Britannians would say. I'll be honest with you though, Japan was beautiful and I loved the crap out of that place… Until it was conquered by Britannia, then it actually became crap. After I was thrown away chances are my father didn't even notice that something was missing, with him it's always about someone else. It's always about Euphie. It's always about Clovis. It's always about Cornelia. It's all about Lelouch and Nannally. When has it ever been about me? Well once, in the distant past…
I was adopted in the years to come by a wonderful family under the name of Harada. Father had hated the name my mom had picked out for me, Amaya, but agreed that this name was fit to be made my middle name. Therefore making my name Evelyn Amaya Harada, it doesn't sound as good as Lelouch's name, Lelouch Lamperouge, I'll admit that but it's better than nothing, I suppose. My adopted parents were kind old souls who showed me great hospitality, their names were Tatsu and Akahana; together we lived in Fukushima, two and a half hours away from Tokyo; there I lead a normal life similar to that of any other student. The Harada never knew my true story because I didn't want to upset them with stories of my past.
As the years progressed I unknowingly met and befriended my half-brother Lelouch; he, like I, was banished from Britannia and sentenced to live in Japan. He and Suzaku were so cute back then and we were inseparable; but things change, people grow apart. Even though I still recognize them I wonder if they can still remember me… I went to a different school then them for so long; we didn't become reunited until high school when we all attended Ashford Academy. Those years flew by and I felt as though I was a chameleon with all the changes that happened to me, and I don't just mean the changes of puberty; my hair changed from black to some shade of dark brown and my eyes used to be violet like Lelouch's, but now they're dark green, with a little bit of grey mixed in. Back then I was a female version of Lelouch but now I'm Evelyn; plain and simple, but I guess now I actually look more like Suzaku, even though my eyes and hair are darker than his. My hair has grown out considerably, seeing as I can now braid it and have it reach past my shoulders and wind down to the middle of my back; that's what I do at night because it makes my hair wavy and why on earth I have bangs is beyond me, they're freaking annoying, they always fall into my face making me have to constantly push them back.
Seeing as I live in Fukushima which is two and a half hours away from Tokyo, I have a dorm at Ashford, ironically its right next to Lelouch and Nannally's. I want to redecorate it; it looks so plain and boring. I really want to repaint the walls, white is just so simple; I want it to be elaborate with lots of different colors. I want my room to be bright and like an explosion of awesomeness! Too bad I can't, I'll just a bunch of stuff on the walls; it'll help a little bit, I hope…
Throughout the day I attend school, like every other student, posing as a full Britannian. Maybe I could become an honorary citizen like Suzaku-kun… If only… My mom would've wanted me to pose, for the sake of my education. The days are dull and I usually end up playing with my hair and falling asleep then Suzaku, who sits right next to me, has to wake me up, I know all the lessons already and don't need any refreshers. Then when night falls I work for justice with the group led by none other than Zero, The Black Nights. With their help I will crush Britannia and my father with an iron fist full of hatred. They shall never see us coming from behind with Zero as our great mastermind; nothing shall stop us and we will take down Britannia. Not even Cornelia, my own flesh and blood, will stand a chance against us.
Yo! Tis, I! Burnt Taco! I'm currently in the process of editing and revising the story; so, how is it? Better? Worse? Did you like the original more? I want to know! It has piqued my interest! (Best phrase ever!) Alright, leave me a comment telling me what you think; if you want that is. I don't want to sound desperate; I just want to know what you think! :D Burnt Taco has had too much sugar after coming home from the movies and HuHot with friends like Hippielicious, Di-Haz, and Andrea. :D Oh, and if you didn't notice, I like lines. Also, did you know that "go hang a salami, i'm a lasagna hog" is a palindrome? It's really cool! Just thought I'd tell you that because I think palindromes are awesome.
