"Did you want this life?" I got this question a couple times in my life. And every single time someone would ask me this question, I would simply say yes just to spare them the depressing details of my life. I hated lying, but naturally we wouldn't just come out and tell people our whole entire life story. Well, I'm done lying. I'm Savannah Hernandez, 17, and I lived out my life in fear and sadness. I couldn't go one day without looking in my closet and thought, "hm, what outfit isn't going to expose my scars and bruises". That was the life I lived. I have two little sisters, Brianna being 16, and Isabella being only 6. Everything I did was revolved around protecting them. Whether it was a scrape on their knee or my mom and her boyfriends constantly abusing us. This has been going on since I was about 13 years old, and I hated my mother for that. She abandoned us, she drank alcohol daily, and slept with every guy she could get her hands on. I've been living with the mantra "everything happens for a reason." But now I'm not so sure. I still, to this day, could never understand why I was given this life. So, when asked the question, "did I want this life?" No. It was completely and absolutely Unwanted. Follow Savannah through the journey of her Unwanted Life.

Hi... My name is Aiden Jenkins. I am 18 years old. I live in a 'small' town Chico, and I go to Pleasant Valley High School. And I love playing Basketball. I have two close friends, Tristen. And Lizzy, who hates being called by her real name, Elizabeth... Seems like I'm just the average popular guy, right? And all this sounds pretty 'normal' so far, right? Well, I live with my grandmother and uncle and by that I mean, are they really my blood family? I realised very early on in my life that something was not right and nothing about my life was normal or average.. It all started with my issues. Yes, from early on I had anger management issues, which I always seemed to take out on my arch enemy, Colten. I was a real rebel. Then the nightmares and headaches started, soon before my sixteenth Birthday.. ~~~~~~ What would you do, if you actually knew nothing about yourself. I mean, you know who you are, but it always feel like the people closest to you know more about you than they are letting you in on. What would you do, if someday your life changes, and life as you know it changes, for the worst? A week after my sixteenth birthday, I finally got to hear the truth, about what I am, and how I came to be what I am now. I was everything but normal. It was the day I came face to face with reality. Imagine the people around you, your best friend, the girl you secretly love, looks at you like you are some kind of monster? There could be no worse feeling than that. I am not telling on anything yet, feel free to assume what I am, but I can assure you, you would be mistaken. As they say "All shall be revealed in good time." Curious? Well you will just have to wait and read my story. I am Aiden Jenkins, and so begins the story of the 'Cursed Blood'. ~~~~~~~~~ (Short Story)
