Prologue Rio
Hello everyone. I thought I would be nice and leave you guys another chapter. But at the same time, I am being mean because it doesn't continue the story and you all are still left with a cliff hanger *Evilly laughs*
Any who, hope you enjoy, and remember this chapter has no impact on the story, it is just to get to know the character a bit more.
Too-da-loo, and see you again when the chapter is finished. :)

"Look at you. Why do you have such red hair, you freak." An annoying girl says. I don't say anything. It would just get me in more trouble.
"What? Not going to answer me loser?" She ask starting to laugh. The other girls with her also start to laugh. "Loser!" She says putting her fingers on her head creating an L. I don't think she realizes that the L is backwards. I get up from the ground and walk away.
"Freak!" She yells behind me. It is no use fighting back. I was out numbered.

"Rio, me and your dad are going to go visit your sister. Be back soon, bye." My mother calls as I hear the door shut. I am left by myself a lot at home. My sister has lung cancer, so I am mostly ignored in my family. I was surprised they even bothered telling me they were leaving.
I leave my home and start to walk around in the street. As I walk people start to avoid me. Parents pulling their children away. People pointing at me like I am some monster.
I go to my favorite spot in my tree house. When I was really little and my mom was pregnant with my sister, my dad built me this tree house. I go into it and see a girl sitting in there.
"Um, hello?" I ask. She looks up and smiles. She has pink hair that goes to her waist, and bright purple eyes. She definitely looks different.
"Hi. I saw this spot and wanted to go in. Sorry if I barged in. I can leave if you want me too." She says getting up. She was pretty small, but still looked my age. I am eight years old.
"You can leave if you want. I am just surprised that you aren't running away in fear." I say to her. I sit down and look out the window expecting her to leave.
"Why would I run in fear? If you've noticed, I have different hair too. Anyway, what's your name?" She asks sitting back down next to me.
"Rio." I say quietly. It felt weird getting attention like this.
"I like that name. It reminds me of a bird." She says smiling. She then gets up and sticks her arms out and running around the tree house pretending to be a bird. I smile and she starts giggling.
"What's yours?" I ask. She sits back down but says nothing.
"Do you believe in magic?" She asks. I stare at her.
"No." I say flatly. Who does?
"Well I do. I believe in magic. Think about it." She says to me.
"It isn't logical. Magic just can't happen." I say to her.
"But that's the beauty of it. There is no logic to it." She says to me. "I don't know. I always wanted to have powers. I wish I could fly, that would be my power. What would you want?" She asks.
"To make people happy and healthy. So they wouldn't judge anyone, and...they wouldn't have lung cancer." I say sadly.
"Hmm. That sounds cool." She says smiling.
"Really?" I ask.
"Yeah!" She says standing up again. She pretends to have a wand and is waving it around in the air. "I grant everyone to always be happy and healthy." I start to smile wider. It has been a long time since I smiled for real. We talked a lot that day before she had to go home. I hope I could see her again.

"Get out of our class you freak! You're too young to even be here!" A boy says pushing me making me drop all my books.
"Leave me alone." I say to them bending down to pick up my books.
"No, you leave me alone!" The boy says grabbing the back of my shirt pulling me up. His fist interacts with my face and a sharp pain entered my whole body. He does it again and I feel warm blood coming out of my nose. He keeps doing it over and over again, and I am completely defenceless. I can't see out of my left eye and my jaw feels completely broken.
"Hey you! Put him down!" I high pitched girls voice says.
"What are you going to do about it, girl?" The boy says looking at her.
"I'm going to do lots of things if you don't leave him alone!" She shouts.
"Eew, look at this. A girl has to come and save pathetic, little you. OWWW!" The boy shouts dropping me. I fall to the floor and barely see the outline of the girl. She has long pink hair and bright purple eyes. Thank you I whisper before my world goes black.
***
It has been years since I saw that girl again. I woke in my tree house completely healed. I have no idea what happened. I now walk the hallways silently. No one notices me anymore. But what is different now is that I notice everyone.
Over time I started paying attention to everyone. I soon developed something that makes life more easier. It may sound dumb or crazy, but I can now read other people's mind. I know everyones secret, and I now know every question the teacher asks. But I always knew that.
"Hey, what was your name. Rio? Let's go out." A girl says. She was the girl that called me a loser six years ago.
"No, let's not go out." I say to her leaving. If I were to go out with anyone, it would only be with the pink haired girl, and only her. If I do ever see her again, I will be sure to say thank you, and I will be sure to tell her everything.
I miss you so much. Please, let me see you one more time.
