They say that every story starts with hope. But if you ask me, whoever said that probably never had any hope themselves. Because in the darkest of times, that's when a sliver of hope really stands out like a shinning light at the bottom of the ocean. That's when it really matters. A true story of bravery can never start with hope, because if it did, then that hope came too easy. This is my story, and here I will post nothing but the truth. Of course, names will be changed, for the confidentiality of the person. If you think you know me, don't comment, or confront me or this wattpad account. I'd rather keep who i am it a mystery to everyone. Everyone has a story, and they are all worth being told. Whether you have the courage too, is different.

I'd like to take a few moments of your time to explain a little bit behind the reason for this story coming about. You see, going back what must be two years now when my life had taken a somewhat drastic downwards spiral, at the same time I had a friend whom was also suffering from a life changing dilemma, and one that was far worse than my own. Her young cousin, whose name I shall not reveal out of respect to her and her family, suffered from a terminal illness and was at that time moving into a children's hospice where she would spend her final days. How heartbreaking this was and must have been to my friend at the time. I made myself immediately available to be there for her and help her to get through this long and dark road we both found ourselves to be walking. During my hours alone in my room, I would spend most of my time writing stories, though I had never once finished a single one. This was only because as each story would progress I would eventually, without fail find something that was not right with it. I became frustrated and overworked myself, only increasing the stress I became under. That all changed as I thought of my friends cousin, how terrible a place she was in, though the hospice itself was perfect for her, it made me sad that she could not simply escape to a place where she did not have to fear what she already knew, but could be free to explore the unknown. That is when I thought of Atoria, the very place that she could go and be whatever it was that she wanted to be. I created this world for her, but also found myself being drawn into the story. Writing these words had a massive impact on my life and has helped to shape me into the person I am today. And so, I can only dedicate this poem to her. For this world was made for her.

'Standing up I looked straight at Professor Garrett, smirking evilly. "Hi, my name's Christy Evans and I'm an English major. Let's see," I said tapping my chin in concentration, all the while trying not to laugh out loud, "I'm the leader of a group of intergalactic beings who are here to terminate all those who are deemed too conceited for the good of civilization," pausing I gave Professor Garrett a pointed look of my own, "I live on planet screw you, and I'm allergic to bullshit." Smirking and feeling very satisfied with myself, I waited for Professor Garretts next move. ' -When Christy finds her long term boyfriend isn't who she thought he was, what will she do?
