Change

This is the story I wrote in my preliminary exam on the concept of change. There was a couple of different sentences to choose from that we had to use in the story, I chose; "I want to show them who I became". I want to post this here because I was the only person to get full marks. Now, on to the story that was off the top of my head in an exam and somehow managed to get me full marks.

I want to show them who I became. I want to show them what they did to me.

I stood in my living room with a drink in my hand. There was a school reunion tonight and I needed some liquid courage. I downed the drink and took pleasure in the burning sensation it caused in my throat.

I walked to my bedroom to put on the outfit I had prepared weeks earlier. I'm always prepared, I had been planning this for years. These ten years I have been preparing myself for this very night. I have prepared my body and my mind, I've even scripted what I'm going to say. Nothing will go wrong; not like it used to. They will never laugh at me again. They will stare at me in awe.

I pulled on my tight leather pants then my black, ripped t-shirt that displayed my muscles well. These muscles they said I would never have.

I put on my chunky black boots then my leather jacket with the special pocket. I like my special pocket, it makes me feel happy.

I inspected myself in the mirror. Wonderful, I had never looked better. I would blow them all away. I traced my eyes with black eyeliner and made my face pale with powder. Your make up is your mask. In a mask you can be whoever you want to be.

There was only one thing left to do; fill my special pocket; then I would be complete. I lifted the shiny object from the velvet of my bed and tilted it so I could see my reflection. My reflection smiled back at me and nodded. Tonight will be perfect. I slid my shiny object into my special pocket and moved towards my front door.

Tonight the fat, weird kid will be banished from my classmate's minds. I will never be tormented again by them. Tonight is where it all changes. Tonight my shiny object will be stained red.

I apologise for any spelling errors. The teacher comment on this story was; "Wonderfully written – though a bit concerning in subject matter. Well done"

Lol, I enjoy frightening people. Most enjoyable.
