Cross' Story

So some people where talking to me about this book, and they kept asking what it was that Cross was trying to get away from. so here we go with his history.

as a child, Cross was bullied. she was extremely shy at that age. her mother was completely oblivious and she didn't have a father. she just took it. she sometimes thinks back to it, wondering if it would have been any different if she hadn't fought back that day. which day? this one:

she had been at the park near the small school she went to, whittling(using a knife to carve wood into statues of things like animals, she is allowed cuz she is 17 at this point), when the main group of bullies appeared. Mathew, Skylar, and Pheonix. she had a tiger in his hands, almost done. "awwww, is little X playing with his toys?" Mathew said. "no, i'm whittling, you know this. and don't call me X." Cross responded. 

Mathew whipped the tiger from Cross' hands. "aww, its cute.... not." he said, snapping it in half. this is when Cross snapped. she had been working on that tiger for almost 10 months. she tightened his grip on the knife, before swinging it at Mathew, aiming for his vocal cords. she slashed Mathew's throat, before slashing it through both Skylar and Pheonix's vocal cords as well. when she realized what she had just done, she gasped. the three were lying on the ground, bleeding heavily from there necks. she ran off to the woods and washed the blood of the knife in a stream. 

when she got home she just went to her room. after a while, ahe heard his mom turn on the TV. she went downstairs and saw that the news was on, showing the three bullies being rushed to the hospital. "we have no clues to who did this, as no one was around. we will keep you updated." Cross got up, walking upstairs. "hey Cross, don't you want to watch the news?" her mom asked. "no, i'm good. i'm just going to go lie down." 

she ran up to her room, reaching under her bed and pulling out a duffel bag. she double checked the contents. fresh water, food, money, a phone for emergencies, and her golden heart locket. "where ya going Cross?" a voice asked. he turned around seeing his "imaginary" friend, Chara. "I attacked three people. i'm running away." she turned back around and grabbed the bag, before opening the window and climbing out. Chara followed.

2 years later, Cross pretty much had split personality. she managed to keep his insane side in check most of the times though. she had killed to many! 51 monsters and 20 humans she had killed. in 2 years. she was in town to get food when she noticed the small poster. it was a job offer. she looked closer. it looked like it used to have five tags, but now it was down to 2. it read: looking for help. will pay large sum. she checked her pockets. almost out of money. only way she could get money was to steal from those she killed, or get a job. she took a tag, and walked to the address on it.

once the actual story starts, i will probably call Cross a he a lot, because i think of them as male. i made him female in this because i wanted to change things up a bit. also, i may or may not have named the bullies after my own bullies so i could attack them without getting in trouble.
