I am free (COMPLETE)

Prologue-- This Is Only The Beginning.

"This is stupid! Not one of the fucking clinics in this fucking city can fix this fucking thing!" Vanessa yelled. Her brother looked up from his laptop and smirked.

"Poor little rich girl, can't get her cool markings off." He joked. She looked at him. She gave him a nasty look. He just smiled.

"Markus! What did you do!?! This isn't funny. I'll tell mother you piece of shit!" Vanessa yelled. Markus (15) just smiled.

"I didn't do anything Vanessa." He said trying to edge her on. He loves pissing his sister off.

"Tessa. Mark. My name is Tessa." She said calmly. She knew he wouldn't stop.

"Kids, get out the door. You're going to be late. I'm not driving you into school again." Their mother, Lisa yelled from the kitchen. Tessa put her coat over her long sleeve and put her gloves on. Markus quickly took one of them when she wasn't looking.

"Where the hell..." She muttered looking around.

"Out!" Lisa yelled.

"My glove is missing mom. I'm staying ho-"

"Get your ass out! NOW! Tess." She yelled at her daughter. Tessa tugged her sleeves over her hands. Another day of mocking. Another day of this hell. Tessa tried every day to get people to like her. But nothing helped. They don't like what's different and Tessa was different. She hated it.

"God! You don't understand!" Tessa yelled as she slammed the door behind her. Tessa and Markus' father walked out shortly after Markus turned 1. Maybe a week or so after. Tessa doesn't remember him but Mark says he does but Tessa know he doesn't, he just wants to be better than her. They fight all the time and Markus is into some bad things. Markus, unlike his sister, likes to stand out so he smokes weed and he drinks alcohol. Tessa's always picks him up when he gets stuck somewhere so their mother doesn't get mad.

After all for the past 14 years she's been working double shifts to make them have the best life they can. Some nights she works overtime to make a bit more money so they can keep living a double income life when it's just one. Tessa tries to get a job to help out but the minute they see the strange markings they say they don't need anyone. The poor teen gives herself so much grief because she can't get a job and her markings make her a target for bullying and sometimes crime. She has been arrested before because she has strange tattoo like markings covering her body. She wishes she didn't. But little did she know she was special. That her markings made her something more than she could ever imagine. Tessa was about to begin the most amazing part of her life. The next 2 years were going to be the best 2 years of her life.
