Reaper in the screen

The begining

(If nothing makes sense to you then im sorry I'm writing this at 5in the morning and I haven't slept at all)

When i was around eight years old, my older sister Karrie introduced me to the wonderful world of Anime. She showed me manga's, action figures, video games, and it all had something to do with anime and i loved it. Growing up, I didn't have much as a kid. My family was poor so our parents focused on getting food on our plates and keeping a roof over our heads so toys and normal tv were only something we dreamed about. My name is Marina Thorne by the way.

When krrie moved out it was only me and my parents and since they're barely ever home working their multiple jobs, im either home alone or at school. I never really had a lot of friends. Just two girls from my neighborhood named Emily and Riley. But we were fine with just us three and we'd always talk about things we liked and have sleepovers, play games outside, typical kid stuff. i would talk about anime and show them the gifts Karrie would bring me every time she visited.

One day, my sisters boss was generous enough to give her enough money to buy me a game console for our rusty old tv! I was overjoyed and the game that came with it was from my favorite anime ever! I plugged it in and as soon as i loaded up the game it was like the whole world suddenly stopped spinning just for this breathtaking moment. Of course i invited my friends to play and of course they only pretend to be interested because they had the newer versions. But they still tried to be excited for me
