A/N: I don't own the rights to Edward Scissorhands, Mr. Tim Burton does. (But I do own the soundtrack, the DVD, the Blu-ray, the poster, 6 Edward Scissorhands t-shirts, and an Edward scissorhands hoodie)

Enough of my babbling... LET THE STORY BEGIN!
Chapter 1: Free At Last
After 3 long years Melody was finally able to escape the hell-hole formally known as boarding school. Those prissy Barbie-doll girls were always so mean to her. They shunned her existence and she couldn't figure out why. She had spent three long years being totally ignored, depressed and alone. It was all her parents fault. 'Why did they have to send me there? WHY?' She felt tears welling up in her eyes. 'That pain shall have to be dealt with at a later date.' she thought as she forced a smile on her face. 'This is a very happy day and I will not let tears ruin it!'
Immediately she became exuberant and very bold.
"Sayonara Bitches!" she exclaimed as she stepped triumphantly into a cheery yellow cab. It was her first day as an 'adult' according to society, which meant she could finally leave that school her parents had forced her to go to. Not only that, but being 18 also meant she got a very special mystery gift from her Grandfather's friend.
"Oh! What a glorious day!" Melody sighed as she viciously began to rip off her pantyhose.
The taxicab driver eyed her suspiciously then gruffly said "Where to?"
"To the airport please." she said with a large grin.
After the exhausting and never-ending flight she actually started pondering about her situation. "Where do I need to go, again?" she thought to herself as she pulled a crumpled letter out of her polo-shirt pocket.
Dearest Melody,
Do not dispose of this letter fore it is of great importance . Upon your 18th birthday you will inherit a very special gift. A very close friend of mine created it . You probably cannot recall him but his name was Dr. Price, we used to visit him when you were a tot. He knew that when he died that he would need someone to take care of this invention. Even though you were a mere three years old at the time, he knew you were the one to take care it. Surprisingly he also left you his fully-furnished grand estate on the old hill near where you grew up. Your gifts will be waiting for you at this address:11697 Cedar Mill Ct.
Best Wishes,
Grandfather
She had reread this letter a billion times and still could not believe it. Apparently she had inherited some incredible invention from one of her Grandfather's old buddies and a huge new house. HER. Melody! The trouble child. The misfit with the wild blonde hair. It was just incomprehensible.
"Why me?" she thought. "It's not that I'm ungrateful, its just amazing that of all the people in the world this old man had choose me!"
"Before I got check this place out, I need a car, some decent clothes…" she peered down at the horrendously formal- looking attire she was wearing in disgust. "…and a big ol' two liter of Mountain Dew." Melody was still drowsy from the flight and knew her favorite soda would perk her right up.
After her mini shopping adventure she had ended up with a huge thing of Mountain Dew, a pair of black knee-high Converse boots, some neon-blue skinny jeans, a black tee-shirt, a hoodie that was three sizes too big and a beat up blue pick-up truck that smelled a little like cat urine inside. Melody smiled, she finally felt like herself again.
"Next on the agenda… find my new home and figure out what the 'invention' is." she thought out loud.
