I Was a Beautiful Child

I was a beautiful child. I know that because I remember seeing my reflection a few times and I looked much like the other children in my Manticore group. But something began to change when I entered my teen years. I saw the revulsion in people's faces as uncontrollable growths took over my body and I became more disfigured each day. When I was moved downstairs I welcomed the respite from the constant stares. But I also understood that the move signaled the end of my usefulness to Manticore or to anyone else. I never thought I would have the opportunity to offer the world anything. Then a few weeks ago Manticore's doors opened. And today my greatest wish came true. I did something of value before I died.

I saved a life today. A beautiful child's life.
