she's stubborn.
she hates being touched and she doesn't like many people.
her hair is nearly as black as the heart she wants the world to think she has.
in the eyes of some she's a monster, but monsters come in many forms, and some monsters aren't...
"So this our room." Emma said stepping into the room. Eve looked around in distast
"I hate it" she said bluntly and Emma smiled

"Well it's only till we fix the attic for you, right now its really dirty and dark, and musty" Emma said listing off reasons, but it only seemed to spike Eve's interest.
"Show me" Emma sighed and looked out the window
"Fine. After the loop. We can't be late" she said gripping Eves hand making Eve tair away and hiss at her. Emma sighed
"Sorry, now come on".
Eve followed Emma outside and saw the others all standing in the rain. She smiled lightly at the sight. She had always loved the rain. The smell of nature after it rained was the best smell one could smell.
"Why are we all standing out here?" She asked Emma as they joined the others
"You'll see" Eve sighed and rolled her eyes walking up to the group. Her eyes meet Enoch and she found herself not hating this as much, seeing how his face reflected her own.
"She walked over to stand next to him and raised a brow
"Isnt wearing that mach cloth in the water uncomfortable?" She asked and he raised a brow
"I guess"
"Then why do it?" he scoffed
"Because...its, its improper to walk around with such little amount of clothing" Eve gave him a look
"Who in the heck made that up?" Enoch rolled his eyes
"Some old dudes" she raised a brow
"Well why do you listen?" He looked at her as rain drenched her hair making it fall like a waterfall around her head. Raindrops covered her hardly covered body, and the war paint that always covered her body seemed to be dripping off. His eyes looked down her arms and he found something that sparked his interest
"What's the scars from" Eve looked down and her body and smirked
"Well most are my trophies from my victories, the others are from the carriage wreck." She said shrugging her shoulders at the last part
"What carriage wreck?"
"Oh, from the time I killed my mother and sister" she said before turning because Mrs. Peregrine was giving her a mask. Leaving Enoch frowning in confusion. what?
Eve watched as time went backward and she had to admit she found it very amusing as the drops of water reversed
It was amazing. She wondered how she had never noticed she was in a loop.
After the show they were to go to bed, so Eve had Emma take her to the attic.
it was perfect, of course she would fix it a bit in the future but she didnt mind the room as it was. Combwebs and rats running through, no light from any angle, of course she had perfect vision. She smiled and she looked around and nodded
"I like it. Emma you can go" Emma sighed. Mrs. Peregrine had already told Emma that she and Olive were to give Eve a manners lesson every day till she learned. And Emma already knew they had a long way to go.
"Goodnight Eve" Eve frowned remembering that last person that said those words to her
"I said leave" Emma left without another word and Eve looked around. She growled at the thoughts in her head and quickly shook them away before shifting into an owl and flying up to the rafters, where she would sleep soundly all night.

"Eve" no reply
"Eve, hello!"
"If you dont come out right this second I will"
"Shut up Enoch, Mrs. Peregrine said to wake her up, not threaten her. Now, I'm going to look outside, you keep looking" Fiona said before going down the steep wooden stairs.
Enoch rolled his eyes when suddenly a large Owl came swooping down and in perfect timing shifted to Eve who landed on her feet without as much as a stubble
"Enoch. What do you want" he glared
"Nothing, Mrs. Peregrine asked me to wake you up, your up, my jobs done" he said turning around. Eve glared
"Theres a thing called knocking you know" she said qouting him from when they meet. he frowned and turned to look at her.
"I'll keep that in mind" he said returning the glare.
"Good" she said and he turned and stomped out making her smirk. Hes funny when hes mad.

Eve walked into the room she had meet Mrs. Peregrine before. She looked around and saw a boy from the dinner table Horrace she believed his name was. He turned and saw her making him smile
"Hi Eve" she eyed him up and down suspiciously
"Hey" she said wearily, she still didnt trust everyone here, actually she hardly trusted anyone other than Emma and Mrs. Peregrine. However Horacce was patient and didn't mind her suspension of him and instead continued his smile
"Would you like some tea?" He asked and she looked at the strange concoction he was pouring into a cup.
"It looks like dirty water" she said glaring at it making him chuckle.
"Try it" he said pouring another cup. She nodded
"Okay" she said and took a seat at the table. He then placed the cup in front of it and she instantly grabbed it and took a long drink before spitting it out do to its heat. Horrace eyes widened as he was drenched with the tea.
Her tough was poking out of her mouth and her face was that of discomfort
"Hot!" She said with a muffled voice since her tongue wasn't in her mouth. Horrace didnt say anything in shock just sitting there. Eve almost became worried for him untill she watched him burst into laughter.
A big Hartley laugh took over the kitchen and Eve took her toung back and tilted her head to the side in confusion and curiosity, what was so funny. After a while of his laughter she shrugged and decided to join in. With a big over exaggerated laugh her laugh could be heard throughout the house.
Enoch walked in confusion in his eyes as he looked at the two bent over in laughter
"What's so funny" Eve looked at him with a smile
"I have no clue" he glared. Then why the heck was she laughing!
Emma walked in and smiled seeing Eve with a smile
"Eve time for your lessons" Eve looked at her and sighed standing up and looking at Emma in her dress and frowned
"You would easily die in the wild" she shrugged and then walked past into the next room leaving a wide eyed Emma. She looked at the other two.
"I dont even want to know what she was thinking" she said and then turned following Eve. Enoch glared at Horrace
