The Trials of Project 27

Character Information

  My name is Elise Rachelle Gutierrez. I have a complex past, and really great friends. Even though I have my issues, my supportive loved ones keep me going. My dad may be a total creep, but my mom is nothing short of amazing, and my stepdad is a big improvement. My siblings and I may feel worlds apart sometimes, but we're still close. And I'm lesbian.
  Lily is one of my very closest friends. She's been through hell, but she's still so strong. We met in sixth grade gym class, and eventually ended up inseparable. I take pride in being the one she opens up to, as shy as she is. She lives alone right now.
   Morgana and I met back in fourth grade, but we weren't friends until sixth. She's also one of my very best friends. She's loud, passionate, impulsive, and fiery. I may scold her in frustration from time to time, but I love  her the way she is. Despite our bickering, we're still good friends. She's been through hell, too.
   Zoe is a close friend of mine. We met in fourth grade, but went to different middle schools in sixth grade; so we weren't really close until last year, in seventh grade. She's rather innocent, but very quick-learning. Her mother passed away before sixth grade started, and even though she doesn't show it, I know she must be sad sometimes. She's very quiet and tolerant, and a generally good influence on my friends and I.
  Tahjerius, or "T. J." for short. Even though I haven't known him for very long, I know that he's a really cool guy. When we first met, he seemed rather simple, but as I got to know him, I realized that he's an awesome, complex guy. He's a great writer and artist, but if you ask him he'll probably deny it.
Anthony Ryan Gutierrez is a complete piece of shit. He's also my father. He sexually (and otherwise) abused me, my sisters, his younger sister, and a past foster daughter. He is very manipulative, and I repressed most bad memories out of love for him. He's probably the way he is because of the way his mom molested him as a child, but I don't see that as an excuse for his choices.
   My mom is fucking amazing! She worked very hard for me to have a good life. She's a doctor.
   Ava and Eden are my half-sisters, and Jake and Ethan are my younger half-brothers.
   Ava Jaymes Gutierrez/Walker is in fifth grade, and the oldest of my younger siblings. Her mother is my dad's ex-wife, Misty. She's sweet, but childhood abuse has caused her to act out at times. I love her so much!
   Eden Grace Gutierrez/Walker is in first grade, my youngest sister. Her, Ava, and Jake are all products of Misty and my dad. She is tiny for her age, very sweet and doll-like.
Jake Ryan Gutierrez/Walker is four years old, my youngest sibling. Unfortunately, we haven't spent as much time together, but I still love him lots.
Ethan is six now. I haven't seen him since he was two years old. He is the bastard son my dad had with his former mistress, Stephanie. He knocked her up while Misty was still pregnant with Eden. I still remember how close we were back then. I taught him how to sit, stand, and walk. Then he was out of my life completely.
Well, I think that's all you should know for now, so please read on to the actual story.
