everyone has a soulmate. everyone, that is, except me. I live in a place called moonlight village, where everyone is happy and cheerful and in love. that is, everyone but me. im the oddball. the one that despises any love or romance. though I dream...
"Ari!!!!" My mother yelled the night before my 13th birthday.
"Yes mother?" I ask. Just then i felt a stinging sensation in my wrist and i fell to the ground, falling into a pit of blackness.
I woke the next morning to no soulmate. No mark, nothing. Mom why am I so broken?" I asked.
"You aren't broken. You're shattered. You're going to be alone forever. Nobody will love you for who you are. You have no soulmate. No true love." She said and left.
I jerk up from the dream. "That seemed so real....it fit in those memory gaps so well......but it cant be real. It was just a nightmare." I think out loud and stand up.
I put my blanket and small pillow back in my large backpack that holds everything I need.
I change clothes out of my town uniform and into something i stole a long time ago.

I brushed through my short dirty blonde hair that reaches my chin.
"Ok. Today I start my journey." I say and start walking away from the gate, towards whatever is out in the world.
I would pull out my phone but they destroyed all technology a long time ago, so I check my watch.
