Geass is a power I have heard of. A power said to have almost cost the entire world its fall. It corrupted a man name Lelouch but his reign was stopped by a man named Zero. Its been a mystery since that day of geass. What is it? Where did it come from? Why did that young boy even have it? I out of not very many wonder these questions. I was 6 when Emperor Lelouch fell dead to the ground by Zero. Zero the masked man. I from that day kept to myself. I wasn't like everyone that day. I wasn't happy about Lelouch's death. I thought of it as a greedy trick of Zero's. Killing someone just because they were corrupted by a single power. I still think that today. "Hey Aura wake up with you!" I opened my eyes to see Yara. Her gold eyes and blond hair were in my face. "You need to stop daydreaming! You promised you would come with me to pick out a good dress for when we meet the student." I sighed. "I did,didn't I?" "Yep. Now come on. Its going to take all day to find you a dress." I glared at Yara and sighed agin. Yara had been my best friend since I had started going to Ashford Academy. She was a girly girl and adored by everyone yet she had picked me as her best friend. I Aura Fiamma Burn, the outsider. "Ugh Aura please! Won't you just stop daydreaming for one minute!" I got up and followed her. It was my own fault that I had to wear a dress. I had betted Yara I could beat her in any game but she had beaten me in one game I was horrible in, chess. It had been unfair. I didn't know the rules and I pretty much had to give up after the first move. "So Aura you think this looks good?" I glanced up from my journal. Yara was in a dazzling blue dress. Encrested at the top with saphires and towards the bottom it had silk ruffles. "It looks lovely but it is really neccasary to spend almost $250 on one dress?" Yara laughed. "Of course! Were becoming part of the student council. One of the greatest honors at school and we'll be in front of the knights of the round." "There not really knights. They follow Zero." Yara stiffened and glanced around nervously. "Aura don't say such things. Zero is our hero. He brought peace and killed the dictator." I sighed and glanced at the floor. My best friend was one of Zero's followers. She didn't understand my grudge. Yara grabbed me and handed me a dress. "Go try this on." I rolled my eyes. "Ok but I'm not going to enjoy it." I put on the dress easily. I was surprised actually. The dress was very nice. Nicer than most of the things I had. The family that owned me was poor and if Yara wasn't rich I wouldn't even be able to look at stuff so beautiful. I stepped out and Yara gave a squeal. "Your look great Aura! You need to wear dresses more." I rolled my eyes. "No thanks." I changed back out and Yara payed for the dresses. She handed me the red dress and I waited for her to leave before I stuffed it into my worn out school bag. I couldn't bring such a nice thing home and let my mistress see it. I returned home and was greeted by a glare from my foster mother. "Your late!" "I'm sorry Mistress. I was wi-" My mistress slapped me stopping my words. "I don't care child! Excuses mean nothing you know your penalties for being late!" I rubbed my face and sighed. "Yes mistress, I do." My mistress slapped me again and pulled my arm so my ear was at her mouth. "You better get this place tidied up and get cleaned up. We have company coming and if you dare make a fool of me you will feel my true anger child. Is that understood?" I nodded and pulled away as she released her awful grip. She walked away and I went to work. I did dishes,swept,mopped,dusted, and cleaned every nook of the house. I finally got through and went to the bathroom. I stared in the mirror. My face was red and as I touched it pain shot through me. I kept the tears in as I heard my mistress call. The guest was here. I walked down but I almost had a heart attack at the sight of him. The guest was that masked murderer. Zero the leader of the black knights. The man who controls all.
