You stand alone in your room staring at your blank reflection in the mirror. You look like every other person in your Community,beige clothing, and blonde hair. Today you begin your morning ritual like every other morning. Y
ou shower, you dress, you brush your teeth. Today will be like every other day in your community, go to school with all the normal classes. And yet you have a rushing feeling in your stomach, like someone punched you in the stomach and knocked the wind out of you, like you need to punch them back, like you need to hurt someone to help someone. You shake the thought from your mind for thoughts like that are forbidden in the village. You glance out your window before you go to breakfast. You think you see a red-pink flame on the horizon.
