(Third person)

  Jennie was a clairvoyant with her own private business in futurology. She had an outstanding reputation in her school, an oracle of the finest. Nonetheless, she only cared about one thing. Her best friend, Carrie. Carrie was suffering from cancer, and Jennie visited her everyday, but she had to go through a deep, dark forest to reach the hospital.
  One day, Jennie was strolling along the desolate forest to go visit Carrie with her messenger bag, holding her crystal ball and some fairy lights. She wanted to decorate her room and also predict her future health, something she was scared to do since she was diagnosed. She came across an old cottage with no one there. Jennie decided to explore the interesting looking cottage, to see if she could take anything that she could use to decorate her psychic room, provided by the school because of her supernatural ability.
  Jennie found a mandrake, dying rose petals and a luminescent diamond necklace. She put the mandrake and petals into a jar, but she wore the diamond necklace. Suddenly, something glowed. It summoned a portal. Fascinated, Jennie threw a leaf into the portal to see if it was real. To her horror, she was getting sucked in, instead of the leaf. As she struggled to escape, the portal's strength drew her in nearer and nearer. She cried and twisted and turned, screaming for help, but it was a motionless forest, the only movement being her struggle.
  When Jennie arrived in the Universe of Music, she sat down on the marble floor and wept. She wept and wept. She screamed about her family and her dear best friend, but no one could help her. When an instrument tried to lead her to the Stage Of Choosing, she hit them away. Everyone avoided her then.
  After hours of crying, she decided to lock herself in the farthest room at the hall. It was unlabelled and dusty, but she didn't care. She spent her days writing music, only for herself to enjoy. She never came out of there, and survived only with the food the instruments gave to her. She never shared her music with anyone, thinking these people and instruments were the reason she lost everything. Without a musical instrument, she was stuck there forever, alone until death. Everyday, she grew angrier and angrier for her best friend, until..
  Jennie finally opened the door of her room. Dust flew out. However, she wasn't Jennie anymore. She was an evil songwriter, hellbent on destroying everything. She was Destiny's Destroyer. Due to her extensive anger, she had gained magical powers to make her notes come to life. With her large stack of songs, she tried to destroy the hall once and for all, but the instruments locked her up in a cage without her music pieces.
  Since then, she had been growing stronger and stronger and swore one day she would finally end this universe to go back to Earth to meet Carrie.
  Unfortunately, she did not know that Carrie had died the day she was sent there.
