A Life Turning Too Fast


My name is Melody. I used to be a peaceful, innocent Japanese schoolgirl. Not to sound egotistic, but everyone loved me: my deep black hair, my deep brown eyes, my calm, shy demeanor. But most of all, everyone loved my voice, which could sound as beautiful as my name suggested. I was never shy when I sang – I could become whoever I wished during the music.

Then, in August of 2010, all that changed. Japan was taken over by Britannia. Nobody had time to arrange concerts for me to sing at, for all of a sudden, we were no longer free Japanese; we were slaves within our own home, brought down to mere Elevens.

I was only eleven years old at the time, but I remembered it all, and it was like hell to me.

Seven years later, my life flipped over again.

For you see, I fell in love. And with my shy ways, there was no way I could ever act upon those feelings, especially not to him.

My knight in shining armor, though he knew it not?

Lelouch Lamperouge.
