So I'd like to tell you a little about myself.  I am Mykaela and I am pretty sure I'm a freak. But I'm not sure what to think about it.

California is the best place to live when you have low self-esteem. I have been called a lot of things that you do not wanna know. I cry myself to sleep almost every night.

I went to a thrift store to get new clothes that would make me look prettier(I hoped). I walked in and started shopping. Then I heard sirens. A masked man and woman raced down the aisle. They came from the jewelry section. Even a dummy would have guessed that they were robbers. The man grabbed me by the collar of my heavy jacket and dragged me lie a ragdoll. The woman punched me in the face and I passed out. I screamed in my mind and the light faded away.

I woke up some minutes later surrounded by cops. It wasn't rocket science, I had been framed. I tried to explain to them that I wasn't the criminal. Then I felt extreme pain, a bullet slid through my chest as a burst of pain shot through my brain. I passed out. At least I thought I did.

I woke up in my room wearing a white nightgown all freshened up. I walked downstairs and saw my dad and mum crying. I asked them what the problem was but they didn't respond. It was like they didn't even hear or see me. Then I dawned on me that I was gone.

My spirit couldn't rest as I was in my home. I ran to the forest. The trees passed right through me. Its like I wasn't even there. Then I saw a massive figure in between the thick oak branches. It was a house that looked like it was abandoned for about a hundred years. I passed through the door and the inside was dark and gloomy. Then a light switched on. I heard a voice saying"Welcome" almost in whispers. A lady dressed in a night robe floated downstairs. Her neck was bent to the side, her teeth were decayed and her hair was wet and it covered her face. She told me that  humans are evil and they are asleep. "We need to wake them up, my precious" she said in a concerned voice. I realised that waking them up meant putting them to sleep. In order words, DEATH.
