"Give that back you slimy bitch!!!" I yell and chase after a girl my age after she stole my piece of bread. We're running on the rooftops of my hometown. She looks back at me with a cheeky smile and eyes knowing that she succeeded in angering me, which was her plan. The girl who took my bread was none other than Aquarius, my old enemy. She sticks her tongue out at me and winks, running into the shadows leaving me with nothing.

I decide it's not worth it to go and catch her, I mean, we all gotta eat I guess. But damn, I'm so hungry. I walk back to my house, which is really just a broken down apartment from the old days that was abandoned, yet it works. I open my door and see my family. My mother, my father, my big sister, and my little sister. My little sister Sandra comes up and gives me a big hug. "Scorpio!!! Mommy said that we're having a big dinner to celebrate a surprise for you." She yelled.

"Yes, now, Sandra, you don't have to be so loud. We'll announce your surprise later during dinner. You go out and do your work!" My mother smiles. "Thanks." I say after picking up my jacket and my gloves and I leave to go to my job. I work at a building station and my job is to remove buildings, which while it creates homelessness, it also prevents death because of building failures. The buildings we have here are old ones that have broken down long ago and we're trying to slowly rebuild by breaking it apart. I've helped build a whole apartment building which I have a room reserved for when my current apartment is destroyed for rebuilding! This is the most wanted job ever.

Even though you don't get paid in real money, they let you live in somewhat comfort. A sense of security that you and your family gets to stay together forever and you won't really lose your home helps. The benefits of the job are: Free apartment, free lunch on Monday, healthcare, and two uniforms that have different styles for the weather. I gave my old coat from the job to my mother because I'm a bit taller than her, I gave my older sister a cap for the summer, and my younger sister got to have my lunch on Monday.

Today nothing really happens. We do our job normally and we pray for our safety every time we climb to the roof. I'm not complaining though! It really makes me stronger. I have a strong body that I can use to protect my family and friends. Our employer is actually someone on the rich side. Some sort of Caddle...Cradel...Cramp? Family. I can't remember the name. They give us materials to build stuff and slowly our side of the wall is getting better.

I return home at sunset and see my family standing at the dinner table that holds a loaf of bread, candied fruits, vegetables, and a small chicken. This is the biggest feast I've ever seen in my life! "Scorpio, open this." My older sister, Tiana, instructs. I open the white envelope and read:

This dinner really sucks. We only have lobster, sautéed mushrooms and onions, chicken with sake marinade, beef tenderloin, candied walnuts, and sesame ginger green beans. This is like a poor persons meal. I want something else! Today is the day after Libras birthday party and I'm so tired. All that talk has been about her because now she needs to get married or something. Anyways, enough about her!

I'm Gemini Citrine. The only child of the Citrine family. My family is known for knowing everything about anything! We know everyone's secrets, everyone's affairs, and everyone's history. We are peaceful people though, and only gossip amongst ourselves. My hobbies include cuticle care, taking long baths, and horseback riding. My horses name is Prince, by the way. I know every family too! I have met them and learned all their secrets. Here's the information I've gathered:

Leo and Taurus Rose. They're siblings about the same age and they are both undeniably annoying. Their whole family is annoying too! Either they're stuck up and make fun of others, or they completely refuse to talk to others they find beneath them! The Rose family is known for their appearances. They all have such beautiful feminine and sexual features which make them have the craziest sex lives. Everything in their lives are about romance! The big hips, thin waist, juicy lips, doe eyes, and big chest make them very desirable. Most of the men are tall and sort of attractive-average. I believe Leo was the first son born out of the whole family! Usually only girls are born. Most women in the family marry people like that because the pressure to get married and the men...they're so desperate they don't care if an affair happens.

Sagittarius Caddel is one of the few people from a family I respect! They're known for their kindness and purity. Sagittarius is no different! He's a gentlemen and he's really kind. They hold charities and balls to have fun and they have almost no enemies! The only people who hate them are the families who are totally jealous of everyone else and don't care who gets hurt. Basically, the family is perfect! Though, I have heard that there has been some serious mental disorders spreading around there...I wonder what's behind their walls of flowers and inside their perfect home.

Libra Tuere is pretty decent. Their family is known for being very influential in the environment! They throw out all our trash into the poor side, which they could use for...I don't know, maybe to feed their animals. Also, people love their fashion! They have produced thousands of designer dresses I wear today! In fact, I'm wearing their pink dress that I forgot the name of. They're a pretty decent family but there's just...something wrong. I can't put my finger on it but there's definitely something wrong!

The last person is Aries Ram. The Rams are known for their sporty fun stuff. They're all so muscular and hot! Even the girls! They don't help the poor which is good because after the war how can we forgive them?! Anyways, they do get mad very easily. One time someone from that family threw a glass of wine at a Rose. (The family) and they mysteriously disappeared later...odd.

Since dinner is over, I'm just going to go straight to bed because everything bores me now. Also, I'm going to read over my letter to Phoenix Academy~!!!
