Introducing the Black Sheep

Steps. Behind me. But where? My breath was getting heavier every second. What am I doing here? Such a dark place. I can't remember the last time I saw light. There, the darkness vanishes in the air we all breathe in and light surrounds me, again.

>Get up

>Stare at the wall

What a wonderful daily routine I have. People would probably envy my time, doing things that won't change their path or destiny. Of course, I might as well be a failure of a humanity. POUND! POUND! POUND!

That's right; Scarlett, the name forever haunts me. I absolutely hate it. I can't get rid of it. It had always stung me when my name echoes in the depths of my mind. If I could pause time and redo every mistake I made-- I would. But there is no turning back, is there? I ran, I ran towards the opened back window with fresh air waiting for me. A rush of wind pushes against me as I ran forward with no plan. There, I made the leap of faith and ran for my life. Why do I keep living? Easy. I live up my name,'Black Sheep'.
