Ch 1-Happy or a Trick
Narrator:
Every story has a tragic beginning and a happy ending. Well this story kind of follows that, but with a twist. Nothing appears as it is. You know that saying "never judge a book by its cover" this heavily applies to this story. Just remember to have an open mind as I tell you this story from the beginning to end.

In the town of Gothem near the edge was a medium sized cabin. In it lived a father and daughter. The wife had died a few years ago when the girl was two. They were always happy in their simple life, but Galfore thought Kori needed a mother. He was doing ok by himself, but Kori needed a woman's influence. Galfore went out to find himself a wife.
"Why do you have to go?" asked a five year old Kori.
"So I can find you a new mommy, sweetheart," Galfore said softly looking at his daughter.
"Really!" Kori exclaimed with big round eyes.
"Yup. Wont that be wonderful."
"Glorious. I can't wait to meet my new mommy."
"Now be a good girl until I get back."
Soon Galfore left in the carriage. Kori watched as her father left with a big smile on her face. She stood in the front yard until the carriage was out of sight. She kept thinking about the mother she was going to get. Things couldn't get any worse but better. Turning around; Kori headed into the barn to feed the animals. She hummed softly to herself while she did her job.

Now I must stop here to give an explanation on what's going to happen. See…Kori is not going to know that the mother she's going to get is not what she thinks. There are masks that people wear to hide who they truly are. This is what Kori learns the hard way. But she won't know until much later on.

Kori stood outside as the carriage rode up. She had gotten a letter from her father that he found a wife and that she had two daughters her age. She couldn't wait until she met her new family. The carriage finally came to a stop in front of her. Galfore was the first one out.
"Hey, sweetheart," Galfore said as he picked her up.
"Hi daddy," Kori exclaimed.
"Are you ready to meet your new mommy and sisters?"
"Yup."
A woman with black hair tied up in a bun and she wore a forest green long dress. Her aura read that she demanded respect and authority. She wore a small smile on her face when she saw Kori.
"Hello, you must be Kori. Your father has told me so much about you. My name is Helen."
"Hello," Kori said shyly with a tiny smile.
Two small girls soon came out and stood by Helen. One girl had long black hair, purple eyes, and wore a long red dress. The other girl wore a blue cloak and you could only see her big doe eyes.
"This is Komander," Helen said pointing to the black haired girl. "And this is Raven," pointing to the girl wearing the cloak.
"Hello," both girls replied.
"We'll let you three unpack and then get to know each other over dinner," Galfore said.
Kori was burning with excitement. She was so glad to finally have sisters. Everything seemed to be going well; she had a father, mother, and two sisters. Nothing could go wrong right. Then it happened. Galfore had gotten sickly ill. The doctors didn't know what was wrong with him. All of the girls were eight at the time of his death. Helen looked as if she could have cared less. What was hidden beneath was a jealous woman whose husband had only cared about his daughter. She was also envy of the girls' beauty. Kori had long flowing red hair, fair tan skin, and always seemed to care about everyone. From this instance on Helen's true colors started to show along with her daughter Komander. Raven on the other hand remained the same.
This whole experience marked the beginning of Kori's whole life. As the days went on Helen and Komander kept ordering Kori around. The only one who didn't was Raven. Kori wished that she could go somewhere else. Raven mostly kept to herself and stayed in her room. She wasn't technically Helen's biological daughter. Raven was actually a foster child that Helen took in. her mother had died when she was only three and she never knew her father because he had abused her mother and was sentenced to death.

Well this concludes the start of our story. With things just beginning it's hard to tell how things will turn out. The whole point of the story is to 'not judge a book by its cover.' Now with this in mind I bid you farewell until next time.
