~ELYSSA HAMILTON~

How else could she describe the setting? A teacher writing away on the whiteboard and a bunch of students copying away believing whatever is written would be useful in their futures.

Students so busy just like robots. Working toward a future that is not in their reach. Reality is cruel. This is a world where superiority rules over everything. A lord and his villagers. A boss and his employees. A king and his pawns. People being used as tools, then broken down like trash. Sad, isn't it? Not only that, but there is starvation, disease, filth, corruption, discrimination, war and terrorism. An unending cycle of hatred, repeating again and again.

Elyssa wished to break this stupid cycle. However, to do such a thing will require vast knowledge and is or know someone beyond reality like a fairy or something, or else you have no chance of getting out of this corrupted and twisted world we live in.

Elyssa sighed as she got up when the bell finally rang signalling the end of class. Unlike average students who would stay back and have their little chats with their friends, she is not your typical loner. She could make friends quickly; she just did not wish to. Ever since she entered High School, she has always wanted to be invisible, but it did not work in her favor. She stepped into the hallway and almost immediately, they came. A crowd of students suddenly cornered her, shouting out incomprehensible speeches.

"Elyssa! Want to go karaoke with us later?" One asked with hopeful eyes. She waved around her arms frantically for attention with a bright smile on a face

"No! She's coming to the mall with me!" Another asked, glaring at the rest. Her arms akimbo, as if sure that it would work out for her.

"Elyssa, please reconsider joining our club! We need someone as talented as you!" Another begged. He pleaded as if she was god.

There was no end to these pointless chattering and requests. However, these persistent students surrounded Elyssa like a wall whenever she stepped into the halls. It was the same when she was in class. Like usual Elyssa faked a smile and declined them politely, giving an excuse like 'I have class', etcetera. These simple lies that they believe so easily in.

You probably wonder why Elyssa has to deal with this every day. Well, the answer is her very identity. Elyssa is the heir of a famous fashion company who designs clothes for all ages. Her thick, wavy, long brown hair gracefully falls down her shoulders and encircles her diamond-shaped face. A golden sun tan usual brought out her smooth, clear complexion and high cheekbones. Her large soft brown eyes that looked like a playful kid's. Her perfect figure, with curves that send the other girls green with envy. Her talents that she been enhancing since young shown great success with the numerous trophies and medals decorated in her room. Her academic rank was always the top few in the country and it did not seem like school was any problem with her. Any typical student would do anything to be in her place.

Elyssa did not mind being the best; she wishes to change the world after all. She needs to be on the very top to do that very so; however, she dislikes attention. She hates it when people surround her, telling her what to do. What she despises was people using her, using her title and playing pretend-friends. That's what she loathes the most.

As the crowd continues to grow, Elyssa strolled through- Well doing her best to do, so that is. It was no simple task to get through a crowded hallway, but it was what she had to go through practically day by day. You would think she be getting used to it by now.
