You came into my life
When I was so young,
You used and abused me
And always accused me,
You said I was bad
You said I was mad,
You even said if I died
You would be glad.
Now, time has moved on
And I have become strong
And with the new friends I have
I am no longer sad.
They tell me I'm beautiful
And that I'm not bad,
They tell me that I'm strong
And what YOU did was bad.
You both did what you did
Because you are evil,
Your lives are worthless
Now this is the sequel…
The year was 1842 in London, England and a man of great wealth had just celebrated the birth of his new daughter - Christy. Two years later, her mother died. Her father was a doctor, and he needed someone to take care of Christy while he worked 8 hours at the local hospital. The woman's name was Arabella Watson.
She had two daughters, Suzie and Wendy. They seemed very loyal to their mother and didn't pay attention to Christy. By the time she was six, her father died, as the result, she mourned the death of him for ages, but it would also have an even more devastating result.
Arabella married a new man named Jonathan Thorns who turned out to be abusive, and because of that, she was influenced. She wasn't the same carefree, warm-hearted woman anymore. She became cold, and abusive, just like Jonathan. Her daughters also became bitterly jealous of Christy's charm and beauty. But this was just the beginning.
It was 1855 and Christy was 13. She lived in one of the fanciest chateau's in the neighborhood all because of her new parents' wealth. They had everything going for them, unfortunately, Christy got the worst of it.
While Suzie and Wendy got all of their undeserved frivolities, she had to clean the floors, dust the antiques, serve breakfast and much more!
One day, Christy woke up at 5:00 A.M. to serve breakfast to everyone in the chateau. She worked extra hard on Jonathan's breakfast because she knew that if you made one mistake, he would knock the tray out of your hands.
"Oh thanks Christy, this is wonderful." Jonathan said as he ate his oatmeal heartily. "Thanks. I worked really hard." Christy replied. Jonathan didn't pay attention to her after that, signaling Christy to walk away.
After serving breakfast to everyone, Christy cleaned every floor in the chateau until it was spotless, and it was! Until Suzie and Wendy ran in, ruining all of the hard work. "Oh well" Christy thought. She had the most carefree yet sharp/spitfire attitude that anyone could know.
As she rose from the floor, her azure eyes sparkled in the sunlight that shone through the window. "Someday, I will do something that people will remember me for." Christy sharply determined, she knew that God would help her do that thing.
"CHRISTY!"
A madman's voice emerged from the great halls. It was Jonathan. "Please no" Christy thought, she knew that she was going to "get some" as Jonathan said it.
WHY! WHY DO YOU ACT LIKE THIS! Jonathan screamed furiously, Christy viewed him a some gargantuan beast that was going to eat her, but no… It was much worse than that.
"I DIDN'T MEAN TO!"
"WELL WHY IS WENDY SAYING YOU DID IT THEN?"
"SHE'S LYING! I SAW HER DO IT!
"OH! WELL SHE WOULD NEVER LOCK YOU OUT OF THE BATHROOM NOW WOULD SHE!"
Suddenly, Wendy appeared out of nowhere. "Daddy." Wendy was the type of girl that you would not want to mess with. She loved to pull pranks on the other children, but she was the sneaky type who said that the other child did it to her. Basically, she could do it to you, but you couldn't do it to her.
"What's wrong sweetheart?" Jonathan asked his daughter.
"She did it!"
"I know it love, she's a little troublemaker."
"What are we going to do with her daddy?"
"Don't worry love, I'll make sure this gets taken care of."
He grabbed a whip from his pocket and *CRACK*, Christy got whipped, all because of something she didn't do, but she was used to this since it happened to her over the years.
"AAAAHHHHGGGHHH"
Christy lay motionless on the floor "Is she dead daddy?" Wendy asked, not concerned at all. "No, thankfully." After that, he put his whip back in his pocket and they walked away.
Suddenly, Christy arose, a new bruise on her arm "What a great new addition to the other ones." she said sarcastically. She fell on the freezing floor once again, having another flashback of her childhood. She had been having these flashbacks ever since she was eight and they were still happening. She had also felt a dark side to her, feeling that she could do bad things and still have innocence, just like her family, she wanted that personality to come out.
Can't I even dream by Hatsune Miku
I'm desperately looking for you
I've even let go of what I have possessed
Winds blow as if it slashed my ears
My freezing body feels nothing but pain
I'm here, it's really painful
My heart is filled with pains
If I stumble while running,
I can never go back
I'm here, get me out of here, my prince
In the rain penetrating my eyes
I pretend to be crazy with a smirk
I'm here, it's overflowing
I keep bearing this love
If my screams don't reach you,
It's completely unworthy
I'm here, get me out of here, my prince
Can't I even dream?
Suddenly, the doorbell rang, Christy, the only one to answer it, because she wasn't lazy, opened the door and it revealed a man dressed like a ringmaster.
"Come to see him! Come to see him!"
"Excuse me, but I don't know who you're talking about."
"You don't know! Tarrant Hightopp! Come and see him at our circus!"
"I'm sorry, but I still don't get it."
"Well little girl, Tarrant is VERY famous! We've made tons of money with him around! I guarantee that you will be impressed!"
"Well, I don't…"
"Well nothing! We'll see you at the circus!"
Christy found herself in a pickle. She couldn't sneak out and visit the circus, or else she would get another whipping, she couldn't ask because everyone would laugh at her. She had to do something! She had to do something to find answers, who was Tarrant Hightopp, and why was she instantly falling in love with him?
