Konan

I was never in one house for too long. After they took my sister and me from our mother, we were sent to live with an old woman. She was supposed to be our new 'Mommy'. What a joke that was. I can't say I didnt like living with the old woman, she did teach me how to make a nice paper rose. She said it was called origami. After a while I started to love being with her, but as all people do, she just got to old and died taking a nap in her favorite rocking chair. After that I was sent into another adoptive family, while my sister stayed in the system. I hated those people with all of my heart. They already had twin girls, and they made it clear I was only there for the extra money, mainly by keeping me in the cellar. I suppose that is where I developed my fear of the dark. I see monsters all around me, they hide , waiting for me to leave the light so they can finally get me. The cellar was driving me crazy so I ran away. With a boy no less. He was my first love, but he left me just like the old lady did. I couldn't even afford to throw hom a funeral. My lucky break came in when I was 14. A rich couple wanted a daughter to fill the void after theirs got pregnant and jumped out her fourth story window. I must look and act perfect . Anything less and I will be right back on the streets. As soon as I can afford an apartment I'm outta here. Then I won't have to keep my relationship with Pein a secret.

Walking around in the dark terrifies me, but its worth it if I get to see him. But I'm so alone. I could disappear and no one would know, or probably even care. The monsters are getting so close.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

How many people get to say their going to get killed by a homicidal maniac with a flashlight?

Hey Miss! Are you ok?

I-I'm..uh...I'm fine

Great, You look like you were having a heart attack.

You scared me, that's all.

I did!? I was just so happy, I didn't notice I was being scary.

W-why were you so happy?

Huh..I really don't know.

I can't believe I was scared of that...

Oh.. Hey is that a rose?

Its only origami..

Did you make it?

Yes...

That's so cool!

It's r-really not that hard. Anybody could make one if they wanted to..

You remind me of a friend of mine

I do?

Yeah, she is quiet and stutters a lot.

Is that what She thinks of me, A quiet stuttering girl. I should work on that or the couple might not want me anymore.

Her family treats her like an outcast because she isn't like her cousin, who is an all around amazing person, except in the attitude department.

Is that so.

My point is that she was made that way by trying to please everyone else.

O-oh..

So, what is your reason?

I'm just a quiet person I suppose, do you not like the way I talk?

Actually I hate the way you talk, the way you look too.

W-Why I-

But, who gives a damn what I think, all that matters Is do you like the way you are.

I'm not sure

The road you walk upon can sometimes be scary, and always dark. But If you have a hand too hold, its that much easier to follow.

But I don't have anybody!

Well then, It looks like your going to need a flashlight.

But how will you find your way without it?

I'm already half way to where I'm going, I think you might have a little further to walk.

Thank you

It's about time I head home, I'll see you later!

Yeah, later.

Its dark, but she still glows. Just like an angel. It's a dark and long road, I don't know what I will find next. But I will know my path, because no monster can hide from the brightness from Neon pink flash light.

Is sorry enough for being two days late? You see a black cat crossed my path so I had to take the long way to my laptop. Poor me, right?
