Pandora Skylan Chambers is the outcast of High School because she’s ‘emo’, she’s bullied in and out of school and even online. Every day she arrives at school there’s horrible pieces of paper taped to her locker calling her names; “Emo, Cutter, Slut, Ugly, Go kill yourself". All of these things went through Pandora’s mind every day and all day, but she hides the pain. Her mother is a office manager, she’s always busy and too busy to notice Pandora. Pandora isn’t the only child, she has a big sister whose the head cheerleader and dating the quarterback of the high school football team, Liam Johnson. Sierra Marie Chambers is popular in high school, and she’s also one of the students that picks on Pandora, even if they are sisters. Sierra thinks Pandora is a “Freak and Embarrassment”. Pandora’s father doesn’t pay attention to Pandora neither, but he likes to yell at her for no reason, and he’s also an alcoholic. Every day after school Pandora comes home and spends time in her bedroom listening to Black Veil Brides. Black Veil Brides is Pandora’s favorite band, she feels like their telling her everything will be okay, even though it doesn’t feel like it will ever be okay. She won tickets to a Black Veil Brides concert on a Saturday, she was of course going alone, but she was used to being alone. She was excited since tomorrow is Saturday, she bought a new outfit and couldn’t wait for the concert, but little did she know something might change her life.


Saturday Afternoon.
Pandora rushed downstairs into the living room looking for the Black Veil Brides ticket, she saw Liam and Sierra sitting on the couch giggling, watching her as she nervously looked for the ticket, thinking she lost it.
“Looking for this Dora?” Liam said, Pandora hated that nickname terribly. She turned and faced Liam and saw he was holding the ticket, she sorta panicked.
“Liam, give me that ticket. Please.”
“Why should I do that?” Liam said, she tried to snap it out of his hand but he jerked it away. “Hey! Calm down you damn freak, why is it so important to you anyways?”
“It’s that Emo band she listens to, it’s horrible.” Sierra said, Liam looked at Pandora with a questioning look.
“Well why aren’t I surprise. I think I’ll hold onto it.” Liam said, he waved the ticket in front of Pandora’s face teasingly. Pandora grabbed it and took off running upstairs to her bedroom, while Liam followed behind her angrily. Pandora ran into her room and slammed the door shut and locked it, she was out of breath and panting.
“You cutting freak! You’ll have to leave that room sometime and I’ll be waiting!!!” Liam yelled, Pandora sighed and started to get ready...

6:30, Saturday.
Pandora was ready to go but she feared Liam was waiting like he said he would, so she climbed out the bedroom window and hopped into a tree, no one would notice she’s gone. She climbed down the tree and took off running down the street, she was extremely excited.

The concert was amazing of course, when she left the building at ten, she saw Andy Biersack talking and taking pictures with fans. Pandora gained as much nerve she had and walked up to Andy to ask for a picture.
“Um, excuse me, Andy?” Pandora choked out nervously, Andy looked at her. Pandora thought he was good looking, always will. “Can I get a picture with you?” Pandora asked, Andy grinned.
“Sure thing.” He stood close beside her, his arm around her. She took the picture with her old camera and thanked him afterwards, they chatted and he chatted with other fans and then Pandora again. Pandora was standing next to Andy as he answered a few questions from a fan, Pandora was listening closely when a fan ran pass her and their shoulder hit Pandora’s arm hard. She was caught off guard and almost fell to the side when Andy gripped her by her arm before she fell onto the concrete, when Andy grabbed her arm he pulled up her sleeve, and that’s when he saw the scars. Pandora finally got her balance and looked at Andy, then her arm. She quickly pulled down her sleeve in embarrassment, Andy came closer to her.
“Whatever is happening, I promise you it will get better. You’ll get through this, your strong, and I’m supporting you.” Andy said, Pandora’s eyes filled with tears and she looked at him, wanting to believe him, but sadly couldn’t. Pandora nod slowly, then ran away quickly as tears ran down her cheeks.
When Pandora arrived home she couldn’t believe that happen, she sat on her bed in shock, not knowing what to think. As minutes passed, she slowly cried.
“Someone cares.” She thought…
