"Wake up" I woke up in a strange place. I was surrounded by nothing but white, but when I stood up everything turned black. I felt a presence behind me, but when I turned around, I saw something terrible. It was Barren. I tried to run away, but he grabbed my wrist and put his hand over my mouth. He shoved me onto the ground and I fell through, somehow landing all strapped up on a table. "What do you want from me?!?" I exclaimed. "Your mother." Barren lifted his knife... "Angelica? Angelica, wake up!" I groaned. It was my older sister, Alex. "What time is it?" I grumbled. "It's 7:48" Alex said. "Alex! What happened to our alarm clock?!?" I said as I rose up from my bed. She shrugged. I looked over to my nightstand to see our alarm clock's batteries scattered across the floor and replaced with clumps of glitter. How'd that happen? I didn't really care at the time. All I cared about was getting ready before school started, which was at 8:00 am. I decided I wouldn't take a shower that day, and headed toward my dirty laundry hamper, which I had forgotten to wash the night before. I grabbed a random outfit and rushed into my bathroom to get it on. Since that room was the only one with a lock on it, and I shared a room with Alex and my two brothers, Dan and Kevin, I could never get dressed in there without being walked in on by someone. I left the bathroom wearing this:

I walked into the kitchen, grabbed a muffin, and left the house. I got in my car and speeded to school. I could've gotten a ticket, but that's better than three days of after school detention. I arrived at school at 8:05, but the attendance office lady let me off the hook. On the way to class, I see my brother, Dan, who is in the same grade as I am. In case you can't tell, we're all adopted. I was adopted ten years ago at six, Alex 11 years ago at eight, Kevin nine years ago at five, and Dan 16 years ago at nine months. I love Bryan (my legal guardian), but why so many!?! "Hey, Angel!" Dan said "Hi, Dan." I say, rushing past him. I really need to get to class, and distractions won't help. Once I got into class, my active attitude was soon compromised by Mr. Sanders' boring lesson. Blah, blah, blah, blah...
Zzzz....
Hey guys! Sorry for the short chapter, I got bored. I promise more will happen soon though!! This chapter was kind of boring, but it was just an introduction, okay?!?
