Amy's Loneliness
Brainy Amy. That's what I usually hear. People torment me for no reason, other then the fact that I study. But it wasn't going to stay that way.
I transferred from the Albert Einstein School for the Gifted. I don't know why, nor do I remember why I made this choice, but something deep within me pulled me to do it. When I arrived, the taunting, name calling, the hateful emotions came back. Every minute I felt myself fall deeper and deeper into despair. Then I met Serena. I didn't know it then, but I was making a friend, a sister, for life, literally. Serena was bubbly and happy. She became my friend before I knew it and suddenly I felt as if I was going to be fine. She even got me to go to an arcade, which was a first for me. But then reality crashed down upon me. I had to go to my after school program. I rushed out, leaving perhaps my only chance at freedom from the despair I felt behind. After I had made it to my seat, I realized I had dropped my disk with my homework. . The teacher came by and didn't punish me as I thought she was going to, but instead asked me to watch over the class. I agreed and the teacher seemed to disappear. I went back to work, intent on finishing my assignment.
The next interruption came when a girl busted into the room. She demanded to talk to whoever was in charge. I stood up, and to my amazement, the girl transformed into Sailor Moon. I was shocked at first, but that shock turned into terror when I was grabbed from behind by a monster. Soon, Sailor Moon was trapped by the students and the monster was forcing my face toward a computer. I felt my energy trying to escape to the screen, but I resisted. A cool feeling washed over me from my forehead on down. It didn't scare me, but instead filled me with a sense of power.
I was through roughly to the ground and I turned my body to look at the beast. Its arm turned into an ax and I barely jumped out of the way. Serena's cat Luna suddenly appeared and shouted at me to grab the pen she had thrown at me. I didn't give it a second thought and grabbed the pen. Words formed in my head, and I suddenly knew what to do.
"MERCURY POWER!"
That day changed my life. I slowly became more and more "human" as Serena put it. I gained friends, in the form of the Sailor Scouts. When Serena became the Princess, I understood why I was so drawn to her. She was my light. But that light, that friendship would be tested once again.
I had gone to check out a feeling. I went to an after school building, but I could tell that already Emerald's powers had touched and tainted this place. I called for the scouts, and then I was attacked.
After destroying a few groups of the enemy, I heard Venus and Jupiter behind me. I turned and felt a mental push. I stumbled to the side slightly, and then I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Venus and Jupiter were saying horrible things. Finally I couldn't take it any more. I screamed and pushed between them. They jumped out of the window and joined the other scouts. I came out and my body felt as if it was moving on its own.
Sailor Moon had come up to me, but I had slapped her away. She stood up, and I heard the monster telling me to destroy them. Even though the words of the monster echoed in my head, all I could see was my princess' face. For a moment, the haze in my mind seemed to grow, but then it shattered and my mind cleared. I turned and attacked the monster, disabling it. Sailor Moon smiled at me, a true smile of friendship, and then she destroyed the monster. I felt free. I knew now that my princess would always be there. I wasn't lonely anymore.
