This is a Fan Fiction, yes indeed a fiction, purely my imagination. None of this based on true events. I simply borrow the name and few of their characteristic. Why am I making a disclaimer? Because I might write certain characters far from his/her real personality and identity.
The plot of the story will be dark and angst, the opposite of my previous work.
