Introduction: There is always something that makes a story a story. But what if this wasn't a story at all? What if this was the truth laid out to look like a story? My name is Lilith, and yes, I know what you're thinking, but trust me, I am not who you think I am. Really, I am a 19-year-old high school graduate with high honors. I love art, nature, politics, and I have a talent for observation. Honestly, the observation is just for my escape tactics if I ever need to get away fast. Sounds suspicious huh? Well, it is if I were to put myself in your position as the reader. What I want to put in place here is that I am NOT a criminal in any way. Instead, I am escaping FROM a criminal. I can see the gears turning more clearly in your head now. You're starting to get it. I know this doesn't appear to be the story you had in mind, and it probably never will, but I want to get something straight: I have chosen you and put my trust in you with my story, so please read carefully. Nothing on these pages is what they may seem, so please look a little deeper. The meaning is there but hidden just in case. Warning: You will be tricked and deceived here many times. Someone may place something as truth, but it is probably best not to listen. Oh, and one more thing before you turn the page: trust in your instinct because it is probably right. Best of luck to you, dear reader. Best of luck.
