Epilogue
All my life I have been mistreated for everything. Raping, bashing up, near death experiences, if it exists, it's happened to me. I know I haven't done anything at all to deserve to be treated like this and I haven't once seen anyone being hurt as much as I have. I've been scared to move around, to do anything fun and even to have friends. I never know when someone might turn their back on me. Most people only use me to get what they want.
First when I was 4 and 5, I got mistreated by my adoptive father, Mr Gor. He nearly killed me but in some ways I was lucky. If I hadn't looked the way I had, I would never have gotten taken away from him and gotten a new family.
Actually, after that I went to the orphanage and made life-long enemies and a very short friendship. Annie became my first friend but she got adopted and I'd been there at least a year more than she had. Then I got in a huge fight with this boy, I've forgotten his name and I lost. He was always bullying me and it got worst after I lost the fight. I finally got adopted by a woman named Larissa, I think it was. She only adopted me to rape me. That was one of the most terrifying moments in my life and believe me, I've had lots.
A couple of years later, I got adopted by the Oliver's and I am till their kid. They were the only kind family and I am happy with them. I moved to Angel Grove and started at Angel Grove high school. I thought I'd made my first friend when I versed a guy named Jason in a karate tournament and tied. He acted really nice to me. I thought I'd made another one when I protected a really cute girl named Kimberly from two high school bullies that wanted her to go out with one of them. She refused and they tried to hurt her. She invited me to the youth center after school and I decided to accept. That was the most stupid decision I have ever made.
Some people I met at lunch showed me the way there after school and I said bye to them just before I got attacked by these weird grey things. I beat them because they were really weak and stupid but that was also very stupid of me. Maybe if I hadn't beaten them, I would have never been caught. This witch called Rita made me her evil green ranger and I was forced to give my new friends the cold shoulder. It was even worse that they were the power rangers and I had to try to kill them. I nearly succeeded.
Jason freed me from evil and I was given a spot on the team of good and I was thinking that being evil paid off eventually. Boy was I wrong. Rita created a green candle that made me feel really weak and stripped me of all my powers. I was hopeless after that. I went away to take a break at my adoptive uncles cabin and I thought it was over.
Zordon made me the white ranger and gave me a position of leadership on the team. It was all going great, Kim was my girlfriend and I made some new friends. Aisha, Rocky and Adam took over Trini, Jason and Zack's part on the team and became new rangers. Me, Billy and Kimberly stayed. It went great until an Australian girl named Kat was turned evil by Rita. Kat nearly killed me and the others got me out of her clutches just in time. Around the same time, Couch Schmidt was teaching Kimberly gymnastics so she could make the pan globals. Kat stole Kimberly's power coin and Kimberly landed in hospital after a nasty fall from the balance-beam. Kat eventually confessed and got turned good. When Kimberly left for the pan-globals, Kat took her place.
We got the Zeo powers after we got turned into children and went to find the crystals. During Zeo time, Kimberly sent me a break-up letter which ripped me to pieces. Eventually I got over her and started seeing Kat.
We got new powers again, Turbo powers. Rocky was injured and was replaced by a 12 year old boy named Justin. We got cars and everything. Kimberly and Jason had been taken captive and turned evil. They tried to kill us and almost succeeded. I nearly got turned evil by being thrown into the pit of fire. Kimberly got over the evilness just in time and came to my rescue.
Later on, me and Kat broke up and went our separate ways. The island I was working on blew up and I had to jump into the sea, where I nearly drowned. I made it to land and became a teacher to high school students.
I am writing all this down because of other kids like me in future. They don't have to be power rangers or anything; they just need to know that they can survive when they get mistreated. They can live throught it, form lifelong friendships. I'm not saying they should forget it, it's too painful to forget but they should move on, have fun and most importantly, remember that the world is not over. Don't injure or kill yourself, I tried committing suicide once but Kimberly stopped me, it wouldn't have done me any good. I started getting mistreated at 4, I am 30 years old now and I am still alive. Just think of your future life when you are hurt and make it sound magical. Believe in miracles, I know I do
