In the city of Alfroville, lives a little redheaded girl. She has no attraction, nothing but herself, it seemed that no one in town noticed her, that no one in the universe paid attention to her, but that, my friends, would be about to change, because the life of this young redhead, would be linked with the universe forever.
A skinny redhead with a ponytail and bangs in front of her right eye, she wore a yellow blouse with a mustard star as a print on her outfit, wore jeans and navy blue shoes, she wore glasses and had big green eyes, her face had freckles and her look was sweet and kind.
Her name was Zoe, and she was walking around with her head down with her green and orange backpack, seeing the kids running and everyone having fun and she says:
-To everyone, I'm nobody but a weak and useless girl - Zoe sad.
Suddenly, a flash of color comes out of a dirty and disgusting manhole, Zoe opens her eyes wide and goes there. It was a stinking and disgusting place, but in the middle of it all was a very colorful notebook, with the sun and moon symbol unified in the middle of the notebook, and in the middle was written only "IMAGINATION". Zoe looks confused, and looks through the manhole looking for the possible owner of that notebook, the notebook was too beautiful, it was not possible for anyone to leave it there, anyway. Zoe thinks to herself:
-Did someone rich lost that notebook? I should give it back but it looks like no one here cares, I think I'll take it with me, just so I don't leave him in this stinky place.
Zoe takes the notebook, and her eyes sparkle, like they're hypnotized by something, but soon she regains consciousness and puts the notebook inside her backpack, and she continues on her way to her school.
Upon arriving at her school, a chic and very pretty girl with long black hair, red shirt, denim jacket, red high heels, lipstick on her lips, blue eyes like a clear sky appears behind Zoe and says:
-Well, well, well, if it's not the weird girl at school - Girl in a mocking tone while her friends laughed.
Zoe blushes with an uncomfortable look and the girl continues the humiliation:
-You know, an ugly, thin and weird girl like you, should perform in a circus of horrors... hmm, no, I think it would be too much for the circus - Girl continuing the mockery while the others laugh more.
One of the girl's friends doesn't laugh at Zoe, but she doesn't do anything to help Zoe either. A very beautiful boy with licked brown hair, dark skin, white blouse but a checkered jacket walks past them, and Zoe sighs and steps forward to follow the boy, but the girl puts her foot in front of Zoe making Zoe fall to the ground:
-Oh, sorry, my foot doesn't tolerate weirdos, ha ha ha - Girl laughing entering the classroom.
Zoe curls up and cries silently, her life was horrible, she suffered in silence, but very soon, she would discover that her life was not going to stay the same. As she cried, the notebook glowed.In the classroom, a dark-skinned, curly-haired teacher in a beige dress and brown skirt appears and starts teaching her biology class, Zoe goes to get her notebook out of her backpack when she accidentally picks up that colorful notebook, and Zoe looks at him with her eyes shining and a double voice echoes through her head:
-Imagination - Dual voice echoing.
Zoe opens the notebook, and the first page of it was written "Insert your name", Zoe is surprised because the notebook was looking like a computer asking for her registration, Zoe writes her full name "Zoe Marcandez Life". Zoe's name glows gold, and her eyes widen in surprise, and her mind starts to blur, she starts to feel an influence over her, as if the notebook is asking her to create something, a story, a dream, or a fantasy, Zoe decides to start drawing in her notebook to distract herself a little.
Inside Zoe's mind, a huge and beautiful castle appears, Zoe appears in her royal room dressed like a real princess, she was feeling special, at least inside that place, she was special, when her bedroom door opens, and a small bearded vicking dwarf in suspenders appears and says with total irreverence:
-The queen, the whole bunch is out there waiting for you - Dwarf vicking with irreverent look.
-How dare you speak like that to our beautiful queen Spartacus, be more polite - A beautiful medieval knight with a statuesque face appearing.
-Merlin... - Zoe giving a silly smile, and blushing.
-Listen my gracious highness, all the members of your kingdom are waiting for you for your beautiful royal speech, I bet you will do well, as in all times - Merlin kneeling down and kissing Zoe's hand.
-It's nothing more than a big sycophant of our queen - Spartacus sullenly pouting.
-I'm not a sycophant, I'm her guardian, and you should be too, if you weren't wasting your time busy with Spartete - Merlin serious.
-DON'T INVOLVE MY LADY IN THIS, OTHERWISE THEY WILL FLY AXES - Spartacus trying to look intimidating.
A voice in the background echoes calling for Zoe, and Zoe smiles and looks at her 2 soldiers with a determined smile and says:
-Merlin is right, my people need me, no one here treats me like a useless weakling, I'll do my best to... - Zoe speaking in an imposing way when.
-ZOE LIFE! - Angry teacher tapping the ruler on the table.
Zoe is startled, and the whole room bursts into laughter, Zoe squats down in shame, and she turns redder than a tomato, and the teacher says seriously to her:
-Zoe Life, I asked you 3 times what is phagocytosis, if you weren't in the moon world, you could answer me - Teacher in a reproachful tone.
Everyone in the room was laughing at Zoe, including Charles, the boy Zoe had a secret crush on, she shrinks back in her chair, she just wants to get out of there, but she takes a little courage and says:
- Phagocytosis is the process of ingesting and destroying solid particles, such as bacteria or pieces of necrotic tissue, by amoeboid cells called phagocytes - Zoe is very embarrassed and has a red face.
-HEY, IN ADDITION TO BEING STRANGE, IT'S A DIZZY NERD - A female voice coming from the back of the room.
Zoe looks at that scared and sees the same girl who humiliated her earlier with a mocking look and the girl says:
-What's it? Do you want something with me, you weird nerd? - Girl making crying voice to mock Zoe.
Everyone laughs, and Zoe looks at Charles, who was also laughing at how they treated her, and Zoe starts to tear up and feels like complete rubbish, she just wanted to get out of there, she never wanted so much for class to end, she just wanted to go to her realm imagined inside that beautiful notebook. On her way out of school, she was very upset and crestfallen walking, and someone puts her foot out for her to fall. Zoe falls to the floor and her books and notebooks spill out into the hallway and Zoe starts to pick up everything and the same girl smiles and says:
-Oh, I'm sorry, my feet don't like weirdos walking in the hallway - Girl with mocking voice.
-T-That was...unnecessary. - Zoe sad and crestfallen as she finishes gathering her books.
-Sorry, I didn't do it, it was my foot - Girl kicking Zoe's books scattering them all over the hall again.
Zoe starts to crawl to get her books that were far away and the girl takes a picture of Zoe in that position and says:
-Perfect angle, kitten - Girl laughing because Zoe looks like a cat walking 4.
Charles was looking at it from a distance and says with a pitying look:
-Gives that girl a pity - Charles serious.
-Dude, you laughed at her too, you have no morals to feel sorry for her - Charles's friend holding back to not laugh.
-I know, but she must be suffering so much - Charles with a little pity, but not enough to go help Zoe.
Zoe finishes gathering her books, and walks out of there crying and the girl goes to the school door and says:
-Cry no baby, I change your diaper, ha ha ha, what an idiot - Girl laughing.
-Don't you think you're going too far with the girl, Chris? - A blonde girl with red and blue streaks forming an X in her hair.
-What's the matter, X-treme, are you going to tell me it wasn't funny? - Chris is serious.
-She left crying, it's not funny when someone comes out crying - X-treme serious.
-Well, now she's become an advocate of anonymous freaks, that girl is a nothing, a nobody, and if you're in your right mind, you know which side you should be on - Chris hanging out with her friends.
-I think this is going too far - X-tremes picking up his bike and walking away.
Zoe is on her way home crying, when a familiar voice says:
-Beautiful day, isn't it? - Spartacus waving.
Zoe takes 3 steps and opens her eyes, she looks at them, it was Merlin and Spartacus, her creations from inside the notebook, but how? how were they there? How did they get out of the imagination and into the real world? Zoe a little scared asks:
-S-Spartacus? - Zoe approaching them.
-Do you know the weirdo? - Spartacus confused.
Spartacus hadn't recognized Zoe, as she wasn't wearing her princess clothes, and she was still wearing glasses, which she hadn't been wearing when she was a princess. Merlin enters in front of Spartacus and says:
-Forgive my ignorant friend, he is very insensitive with people sometimes - Merlin smiling.
Zoe was open-mouthed and she was trembling and Spartacus looks her up and down and says:
-What was crazy? The cat ate your tongue is it? - Spartacus seriously.
