Intro

My life had always been of great interest to my family. The family I have left anyway. After all, it is not every girl that has her father kill her mother. Allegedly at least. That word, allegedly, has come to mean something new since I’ve started to study law. My family and friends were right in telling me that law suited me it does; I’ve always had the mind of a lawyer. Whether that is a compliment or not is a discussion for another time.

It is a well known fact that I am not the nicest person in the world. I’ve been called a bitch more than once, and quite rightly so most of the time. I am loyal to my friends and my friends only, though while I’m in a good mood I am open to making new friends, especially with people that seem interesting. I’ve always found it easier to befriend males than females, and I suppose that’s part of the problem. My only female friends are my family or people that I’ve met through my male ones, like Gianna through Marcus and Connor, or Lilika through Connor. My best female friend is family, Kristina Katirianya. And again, they are all another story.

I do not get along with the family I have left, that was never any question. Other than my cousin of course. My mother is dead, killed by my father. He is slowly going crazy at that place, that prison. He is no murder, no Death Eater. John Lath’rik loved Samantha Onyszczuk Lath’rik will all of his heart and soul, and would never hurt her. My Aunt Melissa was her mothers sister, and so of course wanted to believe that dad had hurt her. When she and Uncle Stephen found out that I was still keeping in contact with him they went crazy. I was all but kicked out of their house, and contact between my cousin and I was cut off. We found our ways around that though, ad kept in contact. Kat is the only member of the family that believes that dad could be innocent, and I will stick by her through everything.

It was because of her that I found ballet. It became my outlet, the way that I let out all of my feelings. For Kristina it had always been something that she had studied, but for me it was done for fun. Just one of those weird little things about me that not a lot of people know. I have to wonder what the others would think if they read this journal; what Kat, Marcus, Connor, even people I don’t know as well like Gianna and Lilika would think.

By the time I finish all of these chapters would they view me differently. I would be the same person, of course, but they would not view me that way. Each chapter will reveal something new about me, and perhaps some time in the future when someone reads through this, or even when I do at a later date, I wonder how my thoughts would have changed. Of course, there is only one way to find that out.

Chapter One: Danika Ariana Lath’rik

What is there to say about me? My name is Danika Ariana Lath’rik, Danika a Slavic name meaning Morning Star, and Ariana a Greek name meaning Holy. So am I a holy morning star? Somehow, I doubt it. How my Slavic mother and English father came to give me a Greek name I do not know, but I suppose that they simply liked the name. I do like my name, particularly my middle name, which I suppose is why I go by it so often. It could always be worse I suppose, after all, I could have two first names like my cousin. What she did to deserve a name like that I do not know, but it is not my place to ask.

In the looks department I know that I lucked out. I am beautiful, not too tall but not to short, with deep brown eyes and hair. I do love my hair, especially long the way it is, and have decided to grow it a little longer. Perhaps down to my back, I think that that will look nice. As of now it is at bust level. I keep fit, mostly due to the ballet I suppose, because it would do no dance good to put on weight. It is hard enough to dance en Pointe as it is; I could not imagine doing it if I weighed any more. I am happy with my weight though, and am not about to loose or gain any more.

A well kept secret I have is my tattoo. Not many people that I have a tattoo at all, and I am not one to share news about it. No one had ever seen it, not even Katya, and I prefer it that way. After all, I can’t exactly go around showing everyone my bottom. The tattoo is on my left buttocks, and is actually quite pretty. It is of a butterfly, and was done in a three dimensional effect so it look ready to jump off of me. It is done in dark pinks and purples, with a thick black outline and orange decorations on the outer edges of the wings. It hurt to get it, especially when I did not tell anyone and had to sit down all the time in order to keep up appearances, but it was worth it. In my opinion at least.

The reason that I attended Olympus and now Elysion is simple; I have a special ability. Not many people know about this either, but not because I don’t tell them. I have no qualms about speaking about my ability, it’s just that no one seems to ask. It doesn’t really come up much anyway, only when I have lost something and need to find it again. What is it? Well, I have literal photographic memory. Basically, what that means is that I am able to remember anything and everything from my past, as long as I concentrate hard enough. The memories work as a video player would; I can concentrate on certain times and work through the memory frame by frame until she finds what I’m looking for. The details are all there as well, whether I noticed them at the time or not, they will be in the memory. I call them rememories, and they come in handy during tests or the like when I can’t remember something. I don’t think that it’s cheating because I will always be able to pull up the information, so I will always remember it.

I suppose that this is the part of this entry that I explain all about my family and friends, but they will each have their own chapters. This one is all about the 21 year old brunette born in the Ukraine, raised in England and schooled in Greece. And will you look at that, I’ve run out of things to say. Until next time.
