Do you ever dream of having it all? Money, popularity, a lot of friends, good grades, a boyfriend? I did once, and it was not really what I had expected after all. My name is Estella and I learned during eighth year why I didn't need all of these things to make me happy. Well, except for the good grades, which I've earned. I did realize that I don't need popularity to make me happy. Nor money or a lot of friends. You only need one good friend, and I never let too many people get too close. Money can't buy happiness. Popularity is just a psychological thing, it's all in our heads. Hell, we don't need to be labeled "popular" to be happy, and even after high school, in my case eighth grade year, we learn that we are all average people. Once you get labeled "popular", you let it get to you, peer pressure, alcohol, drugs, and sex. And once those things happen, rumors go on around about you. I know this because it happened to me, in my eighth grade year. By the end of eighth grade year, I lost it all. I've been getting labeled a whore and people would always make fun of me. I've been bullied since I was six years old and I've cut myself plenty of times. This is why at my new high school, I hope to make my life better.

Read on to find out how Estella survives at high school! ^_^ Thank you for reading my introduction for my new story, and my first story. I hope you enjoyed it! If you follow me I follow back!
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...
