"Be the way you'd want others to be to you in this world, and you'll succeed."

Those were the exact words of her mother. Before she died. Not after, of course. That would be crazy.

Auroras POV

Hi. I'm Aurora. An average girl, but quite pretty, or, as my mom used to say.

My mom died 2 years ago from cancer. She was fine for all of her life, until one day, BAM she was diagnosed with cancer.

Her death hit me like a truck. The impact was huge. She was my best friend and my mother. What else could be better than having someone to support you when you have now friends?

After she passed away, I didn't eat, sleep, or go to school for weeks. I was full of sadness for a year.

But then, reality hit me. I would see her again. It's not like I wouldn't ever say hello to her again. And then I healed. My broken heart was mended.

When I die, I'll find her, and I won't stop until I do.

All right. Enough with the sad stuff. How about what's going my on right now.

Nothing special. Just...

Social Studies.

My least favorite class.

While in sitting in the back, creating equations for a new chemical I'm making, which is EhdqA, or a healing serum.

My science teacher, Mr. Ross, asked me to use my "amazing scientific brain" to develop a chemical that could help people on real life. A little project, as he called it. So, the first thing I thought was, healing serum!

So, anyway, Mrs. Koffman (the social studies teacher) was blabbing on about Ancient Rome, and I was sitting in the back, writing my formula for EhdqA.

Finally, finally, finally, social studies ends, and I go to science. I've finished my equation and I'm so excited to show it to Mr. Ross.

As I skip to science, I start thinking about my new healing serum.

What will it do? Will there be side effects? Who will we test it on?

Which brings me to my next point.

I have absolutely refused to test any of my creations on animals. Whether it be as small as a mouse or as big as a lion, I'm just not doing it. Especially since mom was an unwilling tester for the cancer serum that supposedly would cure her cancer. But, instead of making her better, it made her worse.

The getting worse part wasn't that bad. The part that really ticked me off was they tested her while she was ALSEEP! She didn't even know!

Which is why I will not test it on any unwilling subjects, including animals.

These are the thoughts that flow through my head as I walk towards my favorite subject.
