Rumors has it that long ago a sorceress named Clarice used to be a human girl, but people in her village didn't think she was human at all, because of how her eyes glowed violet, her skin white as snow, and her hair darker than the night sky. All she wanted was some friends to have of her own, but the kids picked on her because the way her tongue looked, shaped like a snake I should say. The preacher always told her parents that they should 'purify her' to get the evil out if her, eventually they gave in. Poor little Clarice didn't know something bad was bound to happen, but on one cold night, they burned her at the stake, gladly she was able to escape the fire cause the ropes were too loose. If she didn't get out in time, it would've been too late for her, luckily she got away from the mob quick enough, but at what cost? Once she was far she was far enough she knew she could stop running, she was betrayed by her parents, she was hurt deeply. Clarice sworn to never do the same to a child she claims as her own, now while she was walking she saw something glowing under the moonlight, as she got closer and closer, she realized that it was a diamond, a blood diamond. She picked it up examining it closely, seeing what she looked like now, she looked hideous, and like a monster, suddenly wile she was examining it a large shadow creature appeared before her, It looked like a wendigo. It said 'Poor Clarice, all you wanted was some friends. Sadly you looked like a beast to them, why not get sweet revenge?' With that the shadow reached out its hand towards her. 'And I can also restore your beauty, what do you say, shake a poor soul's hand, make your problems dissappear?'. Clarice thought for a moment, then with that, she shook its hand, she didn't realize she made a deal with the devil. But quickly all her problems went away, she got the sweet revenge she wanted on those disgusting people, turning them into abnormal creatures, now she curses anyone who dares to oppose her in any way, this lived on for years and years, no one dares to go into The Dead Thorn Forrest, for they fear of what they'll find, or what they'll become.. The end!"
Rosalie said. "Why did we have to listen to that stupid story, obviously it's not true." I said. "You don't know if it's true Y/N! It might be an urban legend, or it might be a myth." Rosalie exclaimed. I just rolled my eyes at her, I don't really believe in all the legends or whatever it is kind of stuff, I think she's crazy but hey, she's my crazy best friend. "Well, my mom is here, I gotta go. See you at school tomorrow!" We both waved goodbye then I was on my mary way.
People at school call me the 'Daisy Belle, because I like to dress like I'm in the 1950's, their style is so unique even I saw what the people looked like back then, so inspiring! I finally arrived home, when I got inside I was already tired, so I said goodnight to mom then I went to bed.
