At least that's what she thought till she arrived home , only to discover a gigantic paper attached to her door. An eviction warning. If Elaine hadn't been able to pay the rent in a few days then she would be kicked out of her home . " What" the black haired girl shouted as she punched the rusted door , immediately she went upstairs to the apartment above hers. The landlord's house. Normally she wouldn't have overreacted but the fact that she had indeed payed every month of rent on time yet was accused of otherwise infuriated her. The sneaky landlord has always wanted her to leave but hadn't had a good reason to do so , now he opted for lying ?. She couldn't believe it and her fury had lead her to brutally punish the woman, In her defence her actions was justified but the police disagreed and now she was currently homeless. Turns out beating up the owner of your apartment is a valid enough reason for them to kick you out.
Now she was here siting in a plain waiting room along with a handful of others. A brown haired boy only aged twelve sat besides her , he was a computer geek who got casted when he was going to school. Elaine knew all of this as the annoying boy had not once stopped talking to her since she arrived. At least him talking to her had made her seem occupied Elaine thought as she continued to lay down on her chair. The light was extremely bright , making difficult for her to see properly and so she closed her eyes whilst waiting.
" In a few minutes can Elaine choi enter room 107 please " commanded a well dressed young female who's voice sounded very robotic. " your name's Elaine, that's quite unique" the brown haired boy stated. although it was a statement it felt as if it was actually a question. " My mom named after her favourite character in the book 'Fangs of the fallen' "Elaine replied as she got up from the plastic chair and made her way quickly to the room and sat down on an empty chair. Mentioning her mother always put her in a weird mood , she couldn't help but feel grim once she remembered her dead mother. The fire which had killed her parents was so evidently clear in her memories and time to time she would relive that experience in her nightmares.
" Hello Miss Elaine Choi ? " An unknown elegant woman interrupted . Elaine first noticed the lady's expensive looking earrings which hadn't match with her plain white lab coat. " Elaine choi what makes you think you are fit for the job ? " she asked kindly. ' straight to point' Elaine thought as she spoke " well i think I'm resilient , strong minded and quite skilled".
"hmm and what is your opinion on Hope ?" the lady questioned . " what ?" Elaine spluttered out , she hadn't intended on such a absurd question . " Hope is ..... hope is just the driving force of mankind. Every discovery , every success had steamed from someone's belief that their aspirations and dreams could come true but I guess hope could also be the opposite. A poisonous ignorance far valued over fact which leads to demise of the unfortunate" she spoke and straight after that she felt like mentally slapping herself. 'im at an interview for goodness sake not a philosophy lessons, come on Elaine what's wrong with you ' she thought as she imagined digging a grave for herself. ' I'm going to fail, I'm so going to fail
" well done you've been accepted" the lady said . " wait what " ....." how ?" she questioned. she only answered two questions and to be honest both her answers were awful. But her confusion stayed with her as she was left standing and thus began her journey as an idol hunter.
