Chapter 1:Beginnings
Have you ever felt like you didn't belong to your family? Or they never really notice you were there?Well thats my life.My name is Christnia Obalone, 16years old and im the odd one in my family.
My family consisted of my mom,Angela, my dad,Steve, and my twin sisters, Erin and Serena. They all had red, curly hair, with tanned skin.Me on the other hand had long brown hair and was as white as a dove. My sisters weren't the skinnest girls and were pretty short, but i was tall and skinny and a my family tells me "Hard as a rock." They would always say "You're adopted" or "You don't belong to this family!" and would just think "SHUT THE HELL UP!! I KNOW IM DIFFERENT!!" But i would just ignore them, like they were nothing.
I remember very clearly on my fifth birthday, i came home, i took the bus while my sisters got a ride, and i saw no one there. When i called out no one replyed back, until i saw the note:
"Gone out. Money and number for pizza,
522-8788 -dad"
I think that was the first time i realized they didn't care about me.Not one ******** BIT!!!!!!So after that i became independant.Took care of eveything that had something to do with me:dishes,laundry,etc.
So on my 16th birthday i got a REAL shocker.I got a package, not from my family but from someone. It didn't have anything written on it but:
"[Christnia"
When i opened it, there was even a bigger shocker! Inside was a gold locket,an old diary from,like, the 1800s and a picture. The locket wouldn't open, the diary needed a key, but the picture was to me, the WEIRDEST THAT HAS EVER HAPPENED TO ME BEFORE! The front of the picture had two women and two men. On the back it had their names:
John Rowans,Elizabeth Rowans,Michael Chanes, Christnia Chanes
1800.
I flipped it back over and i notice that each one had on an item with a crest of a black cup surrounded by blood red.That wasn't the weirdest part though, the woman next to Michael Chanes...........Looks EXACTUALLY LIKE ME!!And then i heard my family coming back so i hide everything,but the locket, it was so beautiful, in my closet in a shoe box, just in case. Then went to sleep, thinking nothing new will happen to me.

- Great grabbers at the beginning, using the method of asking questions to hook in the reader. I hope that this situation gets better though... And suspenceful (maybe too much) of an ending. Great job writing, beautiful.
