((I'm sure, but at some point in time this story will get more...-clears throat- sexual... But for now, I guess this is just an intro to my OC. Kinda...lacking some details in this, but you know, whatever.

Anyway, I hope you like the writing. ^-^))

She stared at herself, She was no longer that happy little girl everyone had once expected her to be. She had been dragged down to the bottom. She'd not seen herself smile for a long while, when she tried it seemed so fake, -it shouldn't be there..- was her thought. -it has no right, I have no right to express that sort of happiness.-

Gravely, she got up, preparing herself for the day ahead. She slipped on her uniform and fixed her tie. She stared at herself again, shifting her eyes up, staring inside of them. She was searching desperately for something... something to prove that she wasn't the monster that she recognized herself to be. Who knew that three years could do so much damage to someone?

But just as the previous day, she brushed this thought away. She seemed to be doing this with more than just her subconscious lately. It seemed to be the only thing she could do, when she turned to the people she thought she could trust they just gave her weak advice. -Whatever...- she walked slowly through the crowds of people in her sleepy little town. -I'll get better... once I can sleep again, I know I will...- She continued on quietly making her way to the capital building. She had contemplated the idea that, as a country, she had to come face to face with certain things. Things such as murder, She had seen the things America did for his independence, She watched France steal his freedom from her older brother, and she always winced at the gruesome thoughts and images in her mind. No, she had to shake that feeling away. She often thought about fighting for her own independence. But she realized how much danger she'd put her people in, and how many bodies would have to buried, how many mothers would fall to their knees at the news of their son or daughter being torn away from the world before their time had come.

How depressing.

She stood straight as she presented herself in front of her boss, who chuckled at her demeanor. "You seem so depressed... why don't you fill out some paper work, that always makes me feel better."

The female sighed, nodding slowly as she took the papers that were handed to her, sitting at a small paper that was set by his desk, reading the papers carefully. Again she found herself wondering around in her own mind, her head drooping as she slowly drifted off.
