Roses P.O.V (it's night time)

Today was the anniversary of her death I can't believe that it's been almost 8 years already I thought as I opened my window to look at the night sky. I spoke" it looks like a nice night to go up to the roof" I felt something flop on my leg as I looked down I realized it was my baby panther Night.

I chuckled as he played with my toes "are my toes your new toy now" I asked while looking at the black ball of fur on the floor he meowed in response. An idea popped into my head as I watched Night try to bite my toes. "Hey," I said trying to get his attention and from the looks of it he looked up at me. I continued "you wanna go up to the roof and stargaze," I said. He meowed in response so with that I picked him up and headed to my balcony and spread my black wings and took off and landed on the roof. I set Night down and found my favorite spot on the roof which just so happens to be the edge that faced the moon which was a full moon tonight.

I looked up at the moon with a frown " you would have loved this mom if you were only here" I said as I felt tears bursting from my face. I felt a nudge at my side and there was Night trying to make me feel better. At that moment I had the urge to sing as it always calmed my mother down when she had a hard day of work or had an e-mail from my school and had to read dear Mrs. Aizawa... Cause I had that last name and they assumed it was hers as well when it was my father's, not hers. I decided on a song that fit the mood and hopefully no one interrupt or looks at my wings. I started singing in hopes my mother and aunt are listening from above.

(She starts singing)

Please don't kill yourself
I'm talking to you
And I don't pretend to know everything that you've been through
But if it's shame you feel, just know that I've sinned too
And if it's pain you're feeling,
Just know that that's something I went through
I don't know your story but I know you and me are a lot alike
So let me talk to you for a minute, while I've got this mic
I was 13 when I pulled a gun out
At the time it felt like my options had run out
So I put that barrel to my chest and I pulled the trigger halfway
I tried to muster up the courage to put myself away that day
But halfway with that trigger pulled, I stopped
Tears flooded my eyes and that pistol dropped
And I sat in my room and I sobbed for an hour
On the outside, I was fine on the inside a coward
The noise of my depression had gotten louder and louder
I had planned a way out on a baptism shower of gunpowder
I've been lied to just like you're being lied to now
Other people can't help you but I might know-how
Because I've walked in your shoes and I've been at my lowest
And if you don't know anything, know this
You might tell me you're gonna kill yourself and you're close to this
But God wants to meet you in the middle of your hopelessness
God wants to give you a way out of these feelings of doubt
And the sounds of chaos might be
Reverberating around you like heavy metal
But confusion isn't from God it's straight from the devil
And he wants to silence the noise and bring peace to you
And I promise if you just ask him he'll see you through
You got to this place because you tried fighting your own fight
And where did that get you?
Except contemplating about taking your own life
And if you got bullied to this point
I'm sorry you went through that
But God wants to take those words
From your attackers and send them back
You don't have to be defined by what people said about you
Let me pick you up if you don't know how to
You're not alone, man you've got a friend in me
You got better days ahead of you, I just pray you begin to see
Know that everything the devil did to you he wants you to replay
But everything the devil took from you God wants to replace
Listen to me right now, you better look me right in the face
You were created for more than to die in this place
Don't do it, man, please don't take your life
Just take my hand we'll make this right
I promise if you do this you'll regret it
You wake up in eternity remember, I said it
And you wished so bad you could just go back
I'm here for you right now, please just know that
And if you think you're alone in this fight, you've been lied to
That depression came after me and I nearly died too
I thought suicide was the only way and death was meant for me
The devil played his music and I sat front row through that symphony
I walked through the fire and I felt that heat but I pushed past
The clutter and I stood to my feet
I walked out and I refuse to look back
I took my depression and threw it right back, into that wood stack
And that fire must have blazed 50 feet high
And now I plan on leaving a legacy to look back on someday when I die
And right now I'm telling you to
Stand up too, deep down inside you know
It's the right thing to do
Think about your family, think about you
Don't kill yourself, please don't do it
Whatever you're facing God will see you through it I had my mom kill her self and my aunt asked if I could come see her
She was depressed and asked if I could meet her
Two weeks later depression beat her,
She ran into a telephone pole without a seat belt in a two-seater
And I wish right now I could crawl through these speakers
And somehow convince you not to go the same route she did
I wish I could change the fact that you feel defeated
I wish I could lock my arms around you and tell the devil to beat it
But I can't reach everyone even though I do my best to try
Some people believe the lie that it's just best to die
And they think it's the simple way out
But they're not here to see the way things play out
They don't see the hurt they caused, the pain they leave
I take this seriously this isn't a game to me
Even thinking about ending your life is living dangerously
So please just listen to my voice, right now you have a choice
You can choose life or you can get drowned by the noise
Please don't do it, please ask for help
If not for your family, do it for yourself

(she stops singing)

I had felt way better and just as I was about to feel totally calm someone landed on my roof
and approached me all sneaky

I sighed " stop trying to sneak up on people," I said turning around to meet a face I was not ready to see yet but I had to keep my composure so I don't arouse suspicion.

He finally spoke up " what are you doing on the edge of a roof with a wild animal it isn't very safe" he asks

I start to get very annoyed at this "for your information night is not a wild animal he is like my service animal" I shot back.

He begins " it doesn't look like anything is wrong with you and if there was wouldn't you have a service dog, not a panther"

At this point, I was gonna lose it but I remember I have a sleeping panther in my lap so I respond raising my voice a little " not that it is any of your business but for your information ' Mr. hero ' my mother and aunt committed suicide and left me with two large companies and in conclusion, bringing me a whole shit ton of PTSD and stress if I weren't 15 and applying for U.A hero course I would have to take care of both of them without help" I retorted with tears threatening to spill from my eyes. I grabbed night and stood up straight and spread my wings out " now if you'll excuse us we'll be going back inside I have to start training for the entrance exams good night" I said and flew back to my balcony and headed inside and shut the door behind me.

"So he's married now so I guess he moved on already he's probably got kids too so it looks like he's not gonna be in my life like that and as much as I would love to ruin his happiness like he ruined mine and my moms I don't want the kid to suffer like I did," I said remembering how bad it hurts to not have your father in your life but his other kids are in his. Then I got dressed for bed so I can sleep before I start to do ten months of continuous training with night and my quirks.
