fighting over my past.
Hi, my name is Sophie, there is something unusual about me , physically I look as others but deep inside I have something special that no other humans have, more than powers or uncommon abilities, I have a history... a past, I am able to read minds, I can control people and objects. Like all this has an explanation, it all goes back in time when I was born, I come from another planet, a secret one, different from what you know or could imagine, there everyone has special power, any kind of uncommon ability is found there. My parents are the Queen and King of my world. When I was born, everyone was happy except for one person, that person is actually my aunt. Once, she was a close person to my father, they we inseparable like nail and dirt, after marring my mom, he forgot about her, he didn't even talked to her anymore. Sarah had a big whole on her life once the man who was everything to her had abandoned her for another women who before wasn't even close or beloved of him. My aunt Sarah had a rancor, a deep anger inside her. She was hurt she hated my parents. When my parents got the news that they were having a baby, actually me, she said "once that demon is born she would be dead, I won't let anyone or anything make the life's of those two any better, they ruined mine so I will ruin theirs". Why? Who knows maybe it was just a way of feeling better for what happened.
Finally, the day of my birth came. Obviously my parents were nervous for what they knew would happen. After my birth, a day or so, Sarah entered into the palace. As a baby I couldn't talk but I certainly could feel something was wrong so I started to cry and my mother went into my room. Before she could attend me Sarah entered into the room “ I need you about now come here” , when my mom came by she was about to faint. I continued crying and before I could even understand anything my mother was on the floor death.
When I was 10 years my father told me Sarah was again trying to bother us, last time she killed my mother that obviously was an enormous pain for us, but know she wanted two things, ruin our lives and the throne, but the only way of doing it was by killing both of us, my father and me, and Sara didn't feel any pain or sorrow for us and my father wanted to protect me. Late one night we had conversation where he told me “ I am going to send you to another planet where you can have a new life away from Sarah. So basically, that's why I am in the human dimension pretending to be one of you because that was the only way she couldn't take the throne, was if there was still someone alive from my family. Last month my father contacted me and told me he was a prisoner the only way I could save my home town was if I fought against her and that way I could free all the people from her power. I felt a big rest when I heard my dad's voice, but at the same time I felt an enormous pressure, the safety of my world and also this was on my hands. All my actions were going to deprecate on many others futures.
I was mentally preparing myself from what I was about to do and how brave and strong I had to be. Sarah had a lot of rancor inside mixed up with anger, I was scared. Sarah was strong and I didn't wanted to hurt anybody as much as I wanted to save my people. I also wanted to remain in peace with all. Once again my father told me that Sarah, my evil aunt, was in the human world, somehow she found out where I was. She was looking for me, but what now? How could I knew who she was if I couldn't remember her face that much and she was obviously dressed up as another person? I live by myself only with a robot, which looks like a human and act as it in front of others. Basically, I was alone and now I am alone. Sarah discovered the location of the princess Sophie because the people from their planet had a special ability to see a light from 33km away from the others location.
She entered in to my house, taking me by surprise, "Hello little Sophie, not that much now but still, you've been far away from home didn't you missed me?" said Sarah.
"Hi Sarah, from all the faces on the world I had to see yours, no I didn't really missed you, what do you want envious monster? Isn't is enough with killing my mother, you left me without her as well as you let my dad without us both because he had to send me to another planet because your stupidity made him do that in order to protect me from your disgusting presence," I said.
Sarah immediately felt bad, she realized what she had done to me and to my father, "But... But he did the same to me your father, my brother was all to me we were inseparable and because of you and your mother I slowly drowned alone his eyes became only useful for you both." but I couldn’t resist more so I exploded."
That is the natural order of things, you have to move on some times, it was time for my father to experience a different kind of love than a brothers love, he had the right to experience the world with other eyes, he did bad forgetting about you at all but you did not have the right to ruin his life that way
"It seems you didn't grew up, hear you are about 35 years old still fighting revenge on a teen, don't you feel ruined and living with no sense?"
Before she could even look at me I threw the stuff I had on my hand onto the floor, she immediately saw my anger and sorrow. She backed up and ask for forgiveness but I didn't accept them and I forced her to leave me and my planet alone without her presence. Due to the fact that I am the princes I had the power to exile her for it.
I had the necessity to go over my planet. When I figured out how the potions for opening a portal worked, I went ahead and found the miserable conditions my planet was on and I immediately went to my dad's jail and liberate him with the rest. I explained what exactly had happened, everyone was happy for the fact that Sarah was hurt and she could never came back. I left the human earth but no one could noticed it because I erased all of the memories people had of me. I come tinted a good life as a princess there, I love my dad and I'm still waiting for me to find my love and become the Queen. Now our community is a peaceful society with no sound or rumors about Sarah, no one knows where she is (thanks god), I hope we can remain like this for long time from now.

Feeling when I dance
I love to dance every day of my life
It makes me feel free inside
Sometimes I turn, sometimes I jump,
Some movements are challenging
But at the end they looks pretty again.
Facial depressions come natural to your mind,
And it makes you look you'r enjoying the dance.
Dancing in public could panic yourself but it's the way
We show our work to the audience.
I love to dance, but it also hurts,
The pointe shoes could make you cry,
But at the end they'll look beautiful
I love to dance, that is part of me.
Without it I would feel empty.
