The sun was barely flittering through the small crack in the wooden wall. A small girl was barely waking up, she had long black hair, green eyes, and was quite small for her age. She then woke up groaning as she looked around, she was the last one up. So she would go hungry... again. Skylar grumbled as she got from under the bed where she slept, she has a dream where everything was green, and a burning on her backside of her left hand, where her odd lightning shaped scar was, she rubbed it remembering how it felt in her dream. As she walked out of the room, she glance at the walls and realized it was chore day... again.
"Look it's Skylar Noname!" Greeted her as Skylar walked into the dining room. Where her "family" sat with belly's full of bacon, pancakes, eggs, and some other stuff, she heard some tales of tea and such from Klio, but she didn't believe it. Skylar just started for the door on the other side of the room when she was almost there, she tripped on someone's shoe and fell hard on the disgusting floor. When she got up she heard laughing and she felt blood coming from her nose and lip. Skylar just ran the rest of the way towards the door, before they could see her cry.
"Is baby Sky running away to her lace so she could cry? Bloody-" Skylar was well out of the building to hear what the girl had to say. She sprinted all the way to her favorite stop to get away from everyone, a tall tree shading parts of the lake.
"Why does my life have to be like this? I've been dealing with this stuff for eleven years now, don't I deserve a break?" Skylar sighed as she glance at the sky, she saw a couple of owls flying and stared at them in awe. How odd, owls flying in daylight? She thought as she gazed down at the lake. She was high in the tree and had a bad feeling in her stomach, so she started to climb down. When she thought about how having to deal with the girls that picked on her day after day, year after year. She the self consciously rubbed her scar, they had teased her mostly about it, saying how she was such a freak. She then started to cry, but her heart was filled with fear, for the branch she was standing suddenly disappeared and she fell into the ice-cold lake and her handy down clothes were making it impossible to swim upwards. She was about to give up when she felt her surging up towards the surface. When Skylar broke the surface, she took great gulps of air and she felt as if she was floating. She then opened her eyes and saw she was floating in midair, she then started to panic, she didn't know how she was doing it. Skylar then reached out and grabbed a branch and heaved herself up from the crystal clear water, which looked so innocent, but was deadly. Skylar then climbed towards the bank, where she then fell to the ground breathing heavily. She was about to close her eyes when she heard her name being yelled by the owner of the orphanage, a small, fat lady by the name of Maurine Merrill.
