"Your parents are dead." Who knew id ever hear those words directed to me? Definantly not me! The day I heard those words was the day everything changed, the day I became an orphan, the day I got emotionally shattered, emptied out, that was the day I got sent away like some stupid unwanted pest. But most importantly I learned what the world was.. I learned what it could do.. and what the people on it could do. When I was sent to an orphanage I knew I didn't belong there. I was a different person. I was different from them and I was different from the old Skylar everyone knew..

-----------------------

So Skylar Fay Carters was sent away from her home.. She never knew until then who and what was in the world. Meeting knew people that don't want her over and over again has its effect eventually. But maybe there is hope, just maybe if you can find someone to trust you can finally win. But first you must trust the right person.

Chapter one!

Skylar POV

The silver brush glided through my long brown hair as I sat in front of my mirror looking at the girl in it. Your probobly saying 'that girl is you!' but no it's not. I am not me anymore if that makes sense. The girl looking back at me had dull green eyes that use to shine and sparkle like gems in the sun showing everyone her happy, innocent, and bubbly self. Her lips that are now set in a small frown use to have a permanent mischievous grin planted on them with one dimple on her left cheek. Everything about the old me screamed niave happy child. Not anymore. Now the person I am is just a shell of the old me.

"Skylar get down here now your late." Kim snapped outside my door, waking me from my trance. The reality comes crashing back down of what is coming right now, it is another get together when all the orphanage kids go to the main room and people looking to adopt come and chat with us and pick who they want. I don't know why they make me go it isn't like anyone wants me. I pretty much stopped talking when my parents died. I need to stop before I start reliving things I can't handle right now.

The walk down to the main room is a lot shorter than i want it to be, but I'd rather just get this over with. I looked up once I reached the bottom and am met with the familiar tanish/brown walls with brown and goldish furniture. It isn't much but that's all they could afford. The only thing new in the room is the adults, as i am already farmilliar with everyone in this hell hole.

At first glance i usually look adorable and people think that they could change my 'depression state' if they pity me and bring me home to treat me like i am mentally incapable of processing words! So soon i am sent back here where the last four years of my life have been spent, or wasted.

All a sudden i found myself on the ground and an ache in my poor bottom. Before i looked up i already know it was Jayson, also known as my tormentor of the last four years. He is the only one older than my 17 year old self, he is 17 and 3/4. As stupid as that is since its less than a year difference he thinks it makes all the difference in the world.

I was going to just stay on the ground but that stopped when I heard the very high pitched screech from above me. "Oh my gosh dear are you okay?" I almost flinched again when her hand reached down and gripped mine, helping me back to my feet. Once on my feet i came face to face with a pretty blonde haired blue eyed lady that looked like she was about 30 or 31. I just nodded and pulled away from her and tried to walk away, key word tried! I took one step forward before a hand was placed on my upper arm holding me in place. I was spun around and came face to face with blondie.

I looked back at her face and was taken back when her once blue eyes started shimmering a golden, yellow color and her grip on my arm tightened. I had always been able to read people and always thought it was a gift, until now when the anger crossed her face and she gritted her teeth. I wish I didn't know that so I could just shrug her off and walk away.

"I spoke to you, how rude can you be? No wonder your here and no one wants you, you little brat!" With those words spoken she stomped off leaving me there to gape at what just happend.

At that moment a family walks through the door, a woman with black hair and dark blue eyes around 5'5, a man with dirty blonde hair and sky blue eyes around 6'0 and a very cute looking teenager with black hair and a light shiny sky blue eyes and he had to be around 6'2 since he was taller than who I'm guessing was his father, but the thing that caught my attention the most was the exact replica of the teen but with dark blue eyes just like im guessing is his mothers. The strangest part was all a sudden all of their piercing gazes whipped to mine at the same time, and there I stood, frozen looking between all of them until the woman's face all a sudden split into a smile bright enough to light up the night. And then she started walking towards me.... Oh boy..
