There are still a lot of secrets unrevealed! I've decided some of these won't go in order so that you guys get the more juicy bits. I'll start working on the next post!

Dear... Diary.

I suppose that's what you're supposed to be called. This feels a lot different from writing a letter, as if you're writing to yourself. I suppose if I don't let anyone find you, I won't be punished. I need a place to express myself, not like a letter, but... something private. Very well, then. I will begin.

I have an image of me at the top. My name is Lucifer Darklighter, and I am a member of one of the smaller organizations of a quite large one. I could say... I am evil, I suppose. All I merely do is write letters and... spy on the enemy. You see, I have quite a special power - this is the reason why they recruited me. I can control the shadow and the darkness - I can melt into one and reappear in another. They promised safety and shelter, food and a proper life - how couldn't I accept? I was a lonely orphan, living on the streets, every day wearing the same, ragged hoodie. I was bullied a lot by the gangs around - when I arrived here, I received a scythe - it is made of real bone, of what kind of animal I do not know. Let me begin on my past...

When I was a young pup, as long as I remembered I had wandered the streets, hunting for food and fending off bullies. I met another orphan, who I counted as a 'friend' - now I know friends cannot be so easily made. An ally, I suppose. His name was Riccio.



He was the same as me - forever small and young, the symptoms of a PPS syndrome. He claimed to have run away from the orpans' shelter, wearing his suit of fake armor, and he wished for a friend. Being young and foolish, I accepted - I wished for a friend as well, honestly.

We scavenged the bins together in the morning and in the afternoon. However, at night, Riccio refused to sleep with me, saying that he was more used to sleeping alone. I guessed he was sleeping in the next alley - but I was wrong. One day, we woke up and did our normal scavenging, but at the afternoon - we met a gang. The leader of the gang was only known to me by what he called himself - Hunter. Oh, yes, the name did fit him. He would hunt little orphans down and force them to join their gang - otherwise, they disappeared, never to be seen again. We faced off them, teeth bared, then Hunter smiled and said, "Go."

Suddenly, Riccio pounced - but not at him, or any of his gang. At me. "Riccio, what are you doing?!" I cried, tears in my eyes as I struggled to kick him off me. "Doing what I've been doing every night." He said with a sneer. I managed to roll away from his pawstrikes as we wrestled on the ground. I stared into his eyes - once a friendly, deep sky blue, were two balls of fiery rage. One of his paws managed to catch me in the leg - I tripped and stumbled, wrenching my shoulder painfully. I managed to limp off, not caring what Riccio did. They just watched me with smirks - and I was alone again in a dark, cruel world.

I spent two days alone, in a new alley. I grew weak and hungry, afraid to step out into daylight - when one day, someone came to me. I struggled to my paws, baring my teeth and snarling - if I was going to go down, I was going to go down with a fight. My anger - at Riccio, at this world, at me existing - grew and exploded. As the mysterious dog described, I rose up into the air, purple-black mist - or darkness - swirling at my paws. My eyes glowed a burning white - and darkness started to envelop me.



However, before I attacked, the dog looked up at me. My purple light lit up his face, showing a wolf-like snout, glowing red eyes, but a cat-like body. He said, "Lucifer Darklighter! I knew you were special, my friend. My fellow darkness user." He opened a paw, revealing a glowing, purple-black ball of darkness, like mine. With that, suddenly the darkness around me was gone and I dropped to the ground, panting heavily. This dog-creature was powerful, and I knew it. He knew it, too. "I know you're tired of this cruel world." He said, as if he could read my mind. "Come with me, and I'll show you that you can change this. I can offer you comfort, food, shelter - in return you will be with who you were meant to be with. The shadow-users." I could feel my strength seeping away from me, dark spots dancing before my eyes. "W - what's your name?" I stammered. He smiled at me, revealing sharp, white teeth. "My name is Shadowheart." Then I closed my eyes and fell into the dizzying darkness.



When I woke up, there was a glowing purple arrow pressed to my chest. I panicked - but I heard a quiet, calm voice. "It's all right, Lucifer." I could feel strength returning to me, like magic. But then, shadow-using... even I did it too. So... was I magic? I blinked as the arrow tip was removed from my chest. I sat up, seeing Shadowheart next to me, the arrow in his jaws. "Are you ready for your training?" He asked, holding up a paw. I closed my eyes, feeling strength rush through me. If I could change the world for others so they wouldn't have to suffer what I had... why wouldn't I? "Yes."



That is how I ended up here. I owe my life to him, yes... but I realize that they aren't creating the world I imagined. I wonder... what shall I do. Shadowheart has another mission for me - I shall see what he wants and I'll get prepared.

Farewell, Diary.

Wow awesome! Owo

I'm so sorry for not posting on the Hawk anymore, but after the collab, I promise I'll make more entries to make up for it. I think. Sorry for not replying to anything, but I just don't want to get anyone excited over a post that isn't an entry. As I said before, this is not in chronological order.
@PIefan
Yep, but she does act quite sane in the Hawk, though. That's because I had no plan when I began writing the Hawk and Snowy and her sister only came in afterwards.
@moonlightfairy
Agreed. At the start I meant for her to be a completely 'bad guy' according to my younger brain, but then I thought about it and decided even the 'bad guys' aren't born bad.
@Honeystorm~
Thank you so much!

Dear Diary,

It is I again, Snowy Silverflutter, Queen Bee of Furford High.

Why do I put my photo at the top again, you may ask? But again, you can't ask.

It's getting harder.

I have to remind myself of who I am, every minute.

Lena - or Skyler, as she may call herself - is trying to take over my world.

They love her. They all do, even though they don't know her true identity... If given the chance, they would overthrow me for her.

Imagine a school without groups, without order. That's what Lena plans to do. Then she'll steal everyone I love from me... Like before.

Midnight Blaze... There are so many boys out there, each one craving for my attention. They aren't helping me... forget you.

Why do you think I have to continue talking about myself? The great, beautiful and popular Snowy?

Because if I don't, I'll forget.

And in my only moment of weakness... she'll strike.

I've lost nearly everything. Ryker, Sunny, Midnight. But I won't let Lena take more from me.

One of the students said that I needed therapy. I don't need therapy.

I'm perfectly sane. This is the truth, the reality.

No matter how much I wish, I can't change it.

It's easier to just put on a mask and let them believe what they want.

Only here I can take off the mask and... be myself.

Being the Queen Bee who keeps order to everything... it actually doesn't make me very popular. I don't get the... good attention.

But someone has to do it.

Watch out, Lena.

You can't hide forever.

Sorry it's so short, but I'll probably make more soon?
