I was scurrying to my hideout in the back of our house, having to push all of my unfinished contraptions out of the way. My hands were full of old laser guns, scrap, and a hovering disk I found at the junkyard. My Nana doesn't like it when I bring junkyard goods home, she doesn't like it when I bring anything home for that matter.
I would run away from her if I didn't have "the project" to worry about. I can never stand her. I'm still wondering why she even adopted me if she never liked me? I was expecting someone who would die for their adopted mutant daughter, not... someone who would keep me as a slave. Well, my old guardian died, Nana's sister, now Nana is taking care of me. (yay). Heck I didn't expect anyone to pick me up off of the streets because I'm just some bizarre mutant they've never seen before.
Being the only human on a different planet really does suck. People stare at you when your walking by, they tease you, throw things at you, I could go on and on. I've never actually knew what it was like to have a real friend. I think the closest thing I've had to a friend was a guy my age I talked to for 10 minutes at a cafe, or what they call it here, rest stop.
From what I learned so far, this planet sucks. We're in the middle of a war, I'm the only human, I have a crappy guardian, and the weather even sucks here to. OK. Let me rewind a bit, your probably wondering what I'm blabbering on about and how I got in this situation. Let me start over.
My name is Rin, the only human on the planet ninety-four hundred.

I crashed landed here in a pod that was launched into space and built by my father. He wasn't just using me as some horrible experiment, he saved my life. Earth is destroyed and gone. He launched me into space when I was only a little girl, and I never found out the horrible truth until I was 17. That's how long I was floating in space for until I found another planet to live on. Your probably wondering what I've been doing while I was waiting. Well, I was knocked out sleeping for eternity while in a virtual reality where I could make whatever world I wanted. Sounds great I know, but I was alone, that was the hard part about it. Well, that all ended when I crashed on the planet Ninety-Four Hundred, 94H for short.
I had to for about a month on the streets waiting for someone to take me in. I was almost about to try and take care of myself because the "people" here would just think I'm weird. Oh gosh, the people. The people that lived here looked kind of like humans... Okay, just imagine a human with different colored rough reptile like skin, curled goat horns on the side of their heads, elf ears, and a devil like tail. These people were called Hu-Man0ids (Yes with a 0). Hu-Man0ids had common and rare skin types. The colors or shades of red, blue, purple, green, and yellow were common skin types while black, white, pink, and orange were rare. Their horns, eyes, and tails were the same color as their skin. Most of them are pretty rude, but it's not rare to come upon a nice Hu-Man0id.
Also another thing that's very strange about 94H, is the seasons. On Earth, we have four seasons, spring, summer, winter, and fall, where in each season the environment and weather is different. Not here. Here, there's only two seasons, rain season and dry season. It's pretty self explanatory. Rain season is where it rains or sprinkles and the ground is always wet and they skies turn a grey/blue color with many clouds. Dry season is where it's like your living on a desert, most of our water sources are dried up, the ground is sandy and there's sand blowing in the wind. The only good thing about dry season is that most of our food grows during dry season. The plants that grow here don't really need much water, and most of the animals awaken from slumber around dry season to. (surprisingly the food on 94H is better that Earth's food). But that's not even the worst part.
