I am what we call a filter. We look, act, and function as humans. The only difference is that we absorb the emotions and toxins humans spit at each other. We soak it in and to an extent feed off it. And at the end of the day we dispose of the toxic material that we can't "eat"
"My name is Nogert! I'm in high school now and I am a filter. It's painful sometimes because of all the toxins I'm around, but I make it work somehow. I don't have many friends and get teased a lot because of my name. My mom was a huge nerd and decided to name me after the naga a mythological snake creature that's venomous. Kinda ironic right? I don't care if I get teased though. I like my name. And so do my friends."
As Nogert finishes writing that sentence he hears an alarm go off. "Shhhhhhoot! Again?," he says as he turns off the alarm. Nogert was use to his hectic schedule causing him to look sleep and suddenly hearing the alarm to wake him up has been quite the annoyance on occasion. This time it was welcomed.
He quickly gathered his things and headed off to school.
