This Story is about a unique girl names Emotion MissingNO (ayyyy any pokemon peeps? No? o ka y) who has to live a life of constant pain. She has 12 emotions and they all hit her at once. She also lives with 12 people/emotions. Her roommates have only noticed the fact she has two eye colors.
MissingNO was a creation of most, along with 12 others. Does she know that? Yes. Does she care? No. Her "Dad", a Scientist, was creative with how he took care of the 13 girls. MissingNO was meant to be a small creation of a regular girl, but the machine she was made in malfunction and nearly broke down, Creating MISSINGNO. The reason of her name being "MissingNO", short for Missing Number, was because ALL emotions that were created with a number, so when the 12 girls didn't know their names, their "Father" said the number they were assigned with. However, MISSINGNO had no number, so her father called her 'Miss' or 'Missing' to get her to come to him. The Dad only created them so he wasn't alone, his wife had died while on a plane(plane crash) and his only wish was to have children with his beautiful wife, so he had decided to make his own. 12 children were only want he wanted, and created. His first child, Happy, or one, had asked him to make another sister. He decided to do so, and that was the creation of MissingNO.
