The Place For People Like Us
My Name Is Hannam, i am 17 and im turning 18 tomorrow. Everyday My parents would always tell me that i was special and i didnt have to be the same as everyone else, at least thats what kept me going in this "normal" society. What did separate me from them?, well for one, i had what you could call a superpower, but i didnt really realize it at the time, before in my junior high days i always thought people didnt like me because i looked funny, but when i got i into college, i realized the real reason why i was an outcast, during a physical examination which was required for all girls, i found out that its because i had a symbol ◇, i looked at all kinds of symbols, strangely i thought that i was part of the illuminati but no, my symbol was nowhwhere to be found, but one night i was forcefully woken up from my sleep by a man that looked like an owl. I was scared but i asked him if he had the symbol that i had, then he stared at me for a second then i showed him my arm which had the symbol but it was so dark he said he couldnt see it so he told me to follow him up to the roof. I told him i was forbidden to go up there, he stared at me and asked me if i wanted to know who i really was, and i nodded in agreement.
When we got onto the roof i started seeing the sun rise and i looked at the owlman in sarcastic fear and said that there was an evil foster lady that will murder her if she doesnt stay in her room, the owlman said that i didnt have to luve with her anymore. He said that i could stay with him and that his Family was also mine. He walked to the highest part of the roof area and told me to jump down. I asked him if he was being serious, he smiled and then he just jumped off the 4 story building roof. I was panicking, i kept saying that he was dead over and over again until i heard him ask if iw as gonna jump yet. I asked him if he was alive, he was silent but then started to giggle a little. He told me countless times that it was safe and to just trust him. I told him in a scared tone that i didnt know him and that i was too scared.Then he suddenly got behind me somehow and pushed me off i screamed. but somehow iw as floating?! Then i heard the stupid foster lady commanding me to shut it, i spat on the ground and followed the owlman through the alleyway going out of the compound, then he told me to close my eyes and think about my happy place, i didnt really have one but i did it anyway next thing i know im in the air. High enough to reach the clouds even, i screamed but then the owlman covered my mouth and told me to shush, i fainted at the sight of how high i was.
I woke up in a room that looked like a prison cell. Then i heard faint arguing, it sounded like a man and a woman fighting about a human girl?, i didnt really understand but then the bird man, yelled at the mysterious woman and angrily walked up the stairs to where i was being held and asked if i was ok, i nodded and asked him where i was, He told me that i was in a spare room aka a prison cell, but what was i doing there i asked the owlman. He sat down and asked me if i was willing to hear a story of how this place came to be and why i was there.....to be continued.
