The Damned and The Cursed
Prologue
*Coraline*
“Cursed is the man who dies, but the evil done by him survives.” That is something I have learned to live with my whole life. I guess I could say it all started with my grandfather. He did an awful amount of bad deeds, and got himself into a lot of trouble, and a lot of debt. Then he died and all of that was put onto my family. My father couldn’t handle it and took his own life, leaving my mother behind. He didn’t know she was pregnant with me yet, but I doubt him knowing would’ve changed
his mind. He was a troubled man from the start.
My mother was alone and I guess being alone brought out something in her she didn’t know she had. A gift. Not only was she telepathic, but she also had mind control. It sounds all glamorous, and it was at first. She was able to get out of debt, and did a lot of partying until one day she found out she was pregnant. That’s when her gift turned into a curse. She went crazy, started practicing black magic, and ‘cursed’ me. She didn’t want a child different from the world.
She wanted to make sure that I was normal… If that even exists. I guess that the joke's on her because I came out weirder than ever. My name is Coraline, and I’m definitely not your average person.
Notes
Really short, but this is just something to start the story off. I promise that the chapters will be longer. Hope you enjoy the story. Stay strong, Bye!:)
