Lucy's POV

I've spent almost my entire life here in Magnolia. From the age of 3 to 16. When I was 3, my parents and many others were tricked into dropping their children here, including me.

I remember it so clearly.

The look on their faces when they couldn't take me back. I was frightned.

"Mama... Dada... I wanna go home..." Guards were holding my arms as I cried.
My parents were so persistent. They were determined to take me back. Stay with me. They went down on their knees and begged to move into Magnolia with me.

The mayor was angry. Ticked off actually. He had had enough of my parents begging. He didn't think twice.

He lifted his sword which gleamed with the light of the moon, and stabbed my parents. Right before my eyes. I felt like time froze. Their expressions of pain on their faces. The dark, sticky blood that shoot out of their mouths. Then time started again and I saw them fall, fall to the dark, cold, concrete ground.

"MAMA!!! DADA!!!" I wailed and kicked, but I was too weak. The last thing that I saw was my mom and dad's smiles. They had tears streaming down their cheeks. And through teary eyes I heard them say one last thing.

"We love you." Then the guard sent down the blood covered sword on their faces. I heard the crack of their skulls and watched the blood make its way into the cracks of the concrete ground along with the dried up blood from the other victims.

I remember crying and wailing. Then I remember being tied up and sent to FairyTail Camp.

I was barcoded on my right hand. The symbol represented some sort of bird. I lived like a slave there. I had to work and chop wood on the first day. If you were caught slacking off you would lose food privileges. Thisbwas considered a warning. If you had 3 warnings you would be executed right then and there. The food was expired and many children died every day. This was the place where I surprisingly didnt die of some 'unknown' cause. I spent my years at FairyTail Camp until I was released into the heart of Magnolia at the age of ten.

I grew up scraping up enough money to afford a small apartment. Now, you may think that at this age the 'struggles are over'. Well, your wrong.

Every month in Magnolia, 1 person ranging from the ages of 10 and up are chosen to enter the world of Smile. Don't let the sweet name fool you.

Smile is a world in which you enter by first entering a dream state. People who die in the world of Smile don't come back. They die. Their bodies lose their pulse and they die on their beds. Why the world's called Smile? How do they die? I don't know. All I do know is that when you enter the world of Smile, you can't wake up back into reality unless you escape.

The mayor takes the sleeping bodies into a room in his mansion. If a body suddenly has no life force, the families say their last words and then the person is thrown off a neaby cliff after being cut up into pieces.

Yep.

Why am I telling you all this information? Well, here I am, 16 years old and I just received a letter informing me that I've been chosen to enter the world of Smile.

Great.

Just great.
