There is a legend, a legend that is called the "Interstellar". It depicts a story of a woman who had been said to be raised by the stars, a woman who mothered the constellations, a woman who traveled between the stars. Her appearance was that of a generic young maiden who lived a normal life, despite having sporadic powers. Many believed that she was true and many believed she was a mere scam or fake. She the "Feriet" later named as the goddess of travel, dreams, and stars, is important to many people and has many followers from many different places. She is said to use her power to travel through stars to enter the dreams of young ones, although in the legend, it is not explained of what she did in the lost dreams of young citizens, but many worshiper shave said that she fights off figments of darkness named after words such as distress, suicide, and many negative things, she chases out the terrible thoughts that a person thinks. Im obviously not a worshiper of course, I think that the whole star goddess legend is idiotic, and I'll probably never be praised for having a cold heart.
It's been a couple years since our government has reopened as "Interstellar", our government is corrupt of course, well to me that is. Interstellar is God is what they say, what a bunch of untalented, useless imbeciles. Come to us and be branded! your sins shall be wiped from the world by the Star Goddess, Feriet! What lies.
"Arietta, we're about to leave! Are you ready?" My mother said. Not like she had to say anything, she was coming upstairs to get me anyways. "Arietta, I told you that we were going to Interstellar today! How dare you be so stubborn!" Mom slapped me. Standing like a pillar I looked at her straight in the eye.
"What's wrong Lucille?" I recited. Mom looked at me with anger and rage.
"Fine, be like that you useless daughter of mine! But don't come crying if "God" doesn't show any mercy." She stormed out of the room. Everything's fine.
I stood up and watched my family pull out of the driveway. Sluggishly taking off my top, exposing my body to every wall of the room, I noticed that today was the very first day of school, for me. I slipped on my uniform in a second. "Smile, Idiot." I whispered, slipping a grin onto the mirror. " How horrifying." I walked out of my house, not locking the door. There not going to be home when I get home anyways, so there's absolutely no point in locking the house of the people I hate. I began to walking to school without a care in the world! If Feriet permits, then I must die. There was no way I was getting branded with some serial number on my legs or arms or breasts for Gods sake.
Walking to school as students whispered, about me, huh? I cackled out loud. First impression lasts.
" Who are you?" The voice of a girl sounded. I turned around to have spit spat in my face.
"Trying to pick a fight are you?" I rolled up my sleeves. "I dont need a tyrant like you to judge me when I know very well that I'm dangerously unattractive, so shut that mouth of yours, please?"
"You think I'm picking the fight? What the hell? You just talked me down, are you trying to ask for death?"
"Like I could care, if you die, you die, is there anything significant about it?"
The girl has no response, she inspected me up and down. "Where is it?!" I made a small noise. A noise that sounded questioning. "Your tag! You don't have a tag! That proves you're not a worshiper! You're disgusting, get away from me you old timey freak!" You just had to tell it out, huh. Gasps from east, north, south, and west. Everybody stared at me. I ran for the gymnasium. How embarrassing. I stopped running for a couple seconds. Thinking about how I should properly end the conversation with the girl. I turned around.
" Why are you telling me to get away when you yourself approached me? You bastard!"
I continued to run. Everybody was still staring, at this rate, the government would find me and would for sure force me into being branded.
