"Hello Everyone, Come and Gather around. Let me tell you a story, a story that is filled with tragedy and beauty from a girl I once Knew. Her beauty and Kindness hid her pain from the world. Having to final take off her mascaraed mask and revealing her truth was going to change her life. "

The Story teller walked around the crowd, raising her hands to give her story the dramatic setting and smoke effect gave the story life. Figures appeared for her audience in the smoke as she told the story. Then with her last sentence the room goes dark. Slowly a light becomes visible, a soft blue light and the story teller walks into the light to begin her story.

" In order for you my friends to understand her story I will need to take you back, back when she first meet the one that will make her wear the mask." The lights changed to a reddish orange color, and the background of a house became visible. " It was a hot July summer that year, when Lilly decided she would go over her aunts house to hangout with her cousin Felix. Felix was a year older than her but failed a grade. They went to different schools as Lilly mom is very strict and placed her in a catholic all girls school, her cousin Felix went to a public school across town. As she approached her aunts house she noticed a strange car in her aunts drive way. 'Hmm, she said, Felix must have a friend over.' She did not think anything else about it and walked into the house. As the door open, a light came in threw the door and shinned right on the couch, she stopped. There he was this beautiful creature of a man. The light shinning on him, as if the gods where letting her know that he was her soulmate. "

"Are you coming inside?' Felix asked Lilly. "Huh?' she looked over at her cousin but she really couldn't remember why she was there. 'Lilly! come inside and close the door.' That snapped her out of the trance she was in. 'Sorry Felix,' she said as she closed the door behind her. Felix walked over to her and said 'Lilly this is my friend Henry, we go to school together.' She looked over and smiled at him, Felix looked at Henry and said 'Henry this is my cousin Lilly.' Henry who was already looking at Lilly smiled. Lilly felt her heart skip a beat. That smile could take down and conquer a village, she knew right there and then that Henry stole her heart.
