Living with my Uncle was probably one of the best things that had ever happened to me. Even if he can be a tad lazy. He was always coming to my Concerts and cheering me on. He also was kind of a Dork. But I loved that about him. I had caught him wearing my Band Shirt one morning even. It made me really happy that he cared enough to even get one. 

Vil had also been one of my Biggest supporters and I for him as well! He had some issues with Niege but He was doing better about how he handled him. I personally didn't like Niege very much. He just was a tad bit Creepy with his Obsession with Vil. Not the Vil obsession of wanting to best him. It was like he was Kalim and Jamil obsession with being his Friend. Trying that hard just doesn't end well. Trust me.

Though I had heard he had been adopted by Dwarves. I wasn't about to confirm that as I would rather not get very close to Him. I was thankful not to be an Actor like Vil was. I could avoid Neige more often then not. However there was at one point when I was Hired to create a Theme song for a show he was in. It was fine but I personally didn't like the Backlash from it though. at Interviews I got Paired with Niege about it for a month or Two until finally the show calmed down.

Vil though was a god sent. During the Year of his Sophomore year it was interesting to meet the New Freshman. Most didn't know what to make of me when I first came. However it was a Fun thing to witness. Orientation that is.

After however The Mirror had Uncle and I stay behind. It was... Not as pleasant. That was the night I was informed of being the Next Mirror Bearer. This was an Honor apparently but it just made me feel trapped. I loved singing and Preforming. 

However the Mirror Bearer could not preform. They were to stay out of the Lime light as much as possible. You must cover your face and Close your Body. Your only Purpose is to keep the Mirror safe. It was after all one of the Sacred objects of the Great Seven. 

That day I remember it so clearly. Orientation was done and after everyone Left the Mirror continued to glow. Uncle made us stay behind. My mask firmly in place. I walked with Uncle to the Mirror to check why it had not gone out as it apparently did before. 

"OH Dark Mirror! Why have you continued to stay awake?" Uncle said. I frowned. He acted as if the Mirror was a God of sort. 

"I have Awakened for the Mirror Bearer Apprentice" Uncle blinked and looked down at me. I looked at the Mirror confused.

"Apprentice?" I asked. The Slave in the Mirror nodded.

"Yes little Apprentice, I have kept a Lite for You. As I have Chosen you to Inherited the Title of Mirror Bearer. You must however Leave behind your Past. To Learn your Future. On the day of the 18th Year of your Birth, The Elder Crow shale Step down. Then the Apprentice shale become the Master." The Mirror went dark. That day Uncle worked harder to try and get me into the Job. I still thankfully had another four years until I had to give up my Singing career. But it hurt my heart knowing this but I tried to keep my head up.

I spend that year preparing for my life. My Uncle knew I was upset to have to leave my Music behind. He stated that I would always be his little SongBird. Even if It wasn't on stage. I think the Worst part of this is that I couldn't tell Vil. It was a Family Secret that we were the Mirror Bearers.

During that year Not much happened. Even with keeping this secret, I made sure to keep up with my Music. I helped the HouseWardens when needed. I made sure to keep uncle on track even if he Continued to skimp on his Duties to read those Novels of his. I didn't mind though. I know how he felt to learn you would be Trapped in this School your whole life. It hurt to think about. While we could go out we must find someone to take over while we are away. After all it is a big job to keep this Magical School running.
