BLUE:

—————————————————————————

They always told me there was never anything special about the outside world, that it was just like the basement they kept me in for 14 years.

When neighbors started to call, I was taken away in an instant. Seeing a young girl terrified while chained to a wall, I don't blame any of them for taking me away. In an instant my life had changed, the outside world was far better than I could have ever imagined. Of course, there was a lot of adjustments I needed, my foster family took me in and immediately made me as their own.

I didn't know what to think when I met them at first, the culture shock at first hit me like a brick and eventually I warmed up to them.

Their names were Emily and Derrick, they showed me different things like ice cream and some weird stringy thing called 'spaghetti' which was definitely a favorite. Of course I loved ice cream way more, it's been about a couple months since everything happened, I was homeschooled by my old mother so I was ahead on everything luckily.

My foster family was a sweet couple, a man and a woman named Emily and Peter. They had helped me with explaining how our community works, from classifications and how long it would take to get classified. I was supposed to be classified at 14, but that obviously didn't work out because of my previous circumstances.

Emily had told me that she scheduled my classification to be on Friday as it was now Sunday, I didn't mind it since that part was fairly easy to understand.

As for the trauma I had from my previous family, words couldn't describe how long it would take to heal. I realized I had to start school tomorrow, I was excited to say the least. After all the books I've read from my foster parents, I felt ready for the next step.

I did plenty of research, from high school musical to Glee, and even mean girls. I knew what I was prepared for, I thought in my opinion at least.

That's how I ended up here, standing in the spare guest room of my foster parents trying to figure out what would be the best thing to wear for the first day of learning or 'High School' as they had called it.

I stared at my choices in front of me, Emily had helped me find some clothes at the mall since I didn't have anything which I felt guilty I spent her money but also grateful she was being so nice to me.

Since I was severely malnourished from my previous family, I was about the average size of a young child, it was safe to say I was embarrassed from that fact of having to shop in the children's section although I guess it was understandable from how small I was.

I sighed softly staring in the mirror, my foster parents were nice to me but I knew it wouldn't be long before I was thrown off into another home.

When I was a child, shortly before I had been adopted by my old parents, I was thrown from home to home, it was so long ago I only remember bits and pieces but it was enough to know I was so traumatizing that most of it was blocked from my mind.

I smiled happily when I decided to pick an oversized Scooby-Doo T-shirt, a pair of soft black leggings, and a green frog bucket hat. I had a pair of shoes that Emily got me that were black and white, I think she called them 'converse' but she said they were really popular in school.
