Hatred

 Hatred lives alone in a small apartment, surrounded by many other tenants, all of which she can't stand. It's hard for Hatred to hold down a job, and so is currently unemployed. Her past is spotty and unsure, she has many black marks on her record. When Hatred goes to apply for a job, she is not outright disrespectful, she is casual and sweet, and even though the employer sees something they can't quite understand in her eyes, they employ her anyway. The job starts as most of her interactions with people do. Not sure at first, they grow to trust her and believe they need her. However, when there's a violent occurrence, perhaps screaming at a customer or slapping her boss, she is immediately fired. However, it usually ends differently with her friends. People she is close to, become used to her negative energy and angry outlook on life, and before they know it, imitate her mannerisms, her way of speaking and thinking, her immense anger towards everything is a hard thing to escape from. Some people realize what is going on and leave, shun her and her ways. Others stay, believing there is no other way. They are eventually abandoned by her, she become annoying, bored, and they are set lose in the world, lost and unsure of what to do, with hatred in their hearts.

Hatred grew up with both her parents, an abusive mother and a drunk father. Her childhood was spent hiding in corners, or running on the streets. She felt love, never knew what it was like. Her time on the streets, living in alleyways, scrounging for food, she learned only to love herself. Her heart became blackened and cold to everyone around her. She was once given an opportunity, a golden opportunity, but she shunned it, she didn't want any part in it, she could've gone to college, but she believed she could make it on her own. She fell in with gangs, anger and violence spread out a clear path for her. She didn't need anyone, she didn't need anybody. They were all useless, and she hated them.
