Story Scrap: From Monochrome to Vibrancy

This is a story scrap I actually DID start writing way back when I was in high school. The story’s a bit different than what I had for the original idea though. It’s still unfinished but the chapters are still up on Wattpad. Maybe one day I’ll post them here with some commentary for posterity and self-reflection.

A girl lives a normal and bland life. In terms of her own traits, she is ridiculously average. She was so bland that she just faded into the background. She didn’t have any friends as those who tried to get close to her soon got bored and forgot about her. Despite her smiling mask, she was saddened by this, and the day her 8th grade year ended, she wished on a star to have an exciting life with friends. She spends alone for the most part until her freshman year starts. Upon getting to school she is surprised by a series of odd characters that have joined the 9th grade class, and they all seem to set their sights on her. All throughout the year, she is taken on an adventure by one of her classmates, becoming closer to them and discovering her skill for drawing and writing stories as she records each adventure.

At the end of the year however, they reveal themselves as products of her wish and say goodbye to her as she will no longer need them. There are tears, but as she begs them not to leave, they fade into stardust. She spends another summer alone and when she goes back to school the next year, each of the now missing students are replaced by new kids who claim to have been there last year and nobody remembers the old kids. The girl is deeply saddened by this and draws and writes stories about her old friends to cope. The other student see her works and are impressed. She begins to make new friends and is known as a wacky, imaginative, and cheerful person.
