New beginnings don't always sit right with me. Every time me and my mother settle down and become comfortable with where we are, a big ass storm just has to ruin it. This makes four times in the past year we've had to move. This time we arrive in the straight hood of Compton. Not having much to begin with, this was a step up. My mom recently got a job as a nurse and they paid for her and I to live here. I don't make many friends because of what I don't have. I don't have money to call my own, I don't drive my own car, I don't where the flyest clothes and I definitely don't have the latest shoes to walk the block with. Shit, I don't even have a phone. I never had a girl on my arm because, these days, girls fall in love with all that good shit. But I do have determination so I know I'm going to be something someday.
Someday, I will have my own Kingdom to call mine!

When I was 18 I had to leave to study and I did go and did communication and bagging a degree.

Have you ever had one of those terrible yet annoyingly pivotal moments? You know, that monumental fragment of time that flips everything you have ever known. That plot twist second that completely takes you by surprise. The one just before the storm hits and everything goes to hell. Yes? Because you see, that moment happens to be my whole damn life. It wasn't always like this though. I used to have a pretty mundane existence, happy to just get good grades and be around my friends. God I wish I could get that simplicity back, I'd never complain it was boring again. But I know I'm not going to ever get back my old life because well... I died. (Kinda) But I woke up. And I was thrilled, beyond grateful I wasn't dead. But then I realized that there was one minor detail that had changed about my reality. I was given the chance to live but it turns out I woke up as the villainess in an otome game my friend used to be obsessed with - Kingdom of freaking Hearts (I added the freaking in there for effect, it's just Kingdom of Hearts) Where, for the record, the villainess only has two possible endings 1) execution and 2) getting exiled. So Fate was like, "Don't worry, I'll save you. Here's a chance to live" and then was like "psyche, screw you. You're still going to die but I'll let you suffer a little first." So now, if only to annoy Fate by proving it wrong, I am determined to survive. I can and I will if I play by these simple rules: 1) Befriend Heroin 2) Avoid Aryn Edwards at All Costs as well as other capture targets And 3) Be the top student at the academy and become an invaluable asset to my Kingdom so I become indispensable, thus unkillable. I'm determined, stubborn, persistent and I will live passed 16. Fate made a big mistake setting me up to die. Since it threw this plot twist at me, I figure I'll return the favor. I'll be the biggest plot twist Fate never saw coming...
