"Thief," they scream in the middle of the night - in the middle of the day. "Can't be trusted," they whisper behind her back. "Stay away," they warn their children. "Alone," their eyes tell.
And they're all right.
Alice Hobbs - a face few know of and a name even fewer has heard. A shadow in the mist of a crowd of a people. A blank face with a story never told. Born in the slums of Goldcrest - abandoned by her parents and raised by strangers. Strangers that never cared. Strangers that never understood.
So she left. She packed what little she had and ran away. Life couldn't be any worse than that. Being surrounded by people that don't get you. People you don't trust. Because what is trust to a young babe left with nothing? Surrendered to a world far too cruel and unforgiving? A world where the predator hunts the prey. A world filled with hungry wolves and the only way to survive is to become one.
"Thief," they scream because they don't understand; when you have nothing, you also have nothing to lose. "Can't be trusted," they whisper because they're right; this world has taught her how to be selfish. "Stay away," they warn, because they should; she acts in her best interest. And "alone," their eyes tell, because their eyes don't lie; she is alone. She always has been.
"She does such a good job that no one knows who she is."
That's how she makes a living for herself; she swindles the world that swindled her. She steals from the world that took everything away from her. She sneaks into the homes of the people that have wronged her. She creates illusions to distract and performs in order to have something human to hang onto. Something that keeps her from going further into the dark abyss she calls her mind. A mind so dark and broken there might just not be any light left to hide from.
Jack of all trades; master of none.
