Once upon a time, there was a little girl who lived in Pie ville. Her skin was a deep red, and her hair was even darker. She spoke the same language as everyone else in Pie ville, but she had a funny accent and all the Pie villains made fun of her. Her speech had a syncopated rhythm, and no one cared for such uniqueness in Pie ville from what they called a commoner. The only people that were allowed to show uniqueness were the trend setters.



Trend setters were somewhat like city workers, except that they were rather rude, and wouldn't except any ideas but their own. The commoners in Pie ville copied the trend setter's looks, so it was hard to tell anyone apart.

Unfortunately, the trend setters in Pie ville were not very unique. They copied styles from other cities in the W.E.B. (the country they lived in). The little girl was not very happy living in this town, and her strange name made it even worse (she has asked me not to tell you what her name is 8^).

One day, an even stranger person entered the town of Pie ville, even stranger than the little girl.

The person wore a red hat:



And this person didn't seem to notice the rude stares s/he (no one could tell their gender, the red hat was covering up almost their whole face) was getting from the commoners of Pie ville. The person walked straight towards the place where the trend setters lived. The little girl gasped. Did the new person know the penalties of disturbing the trend setters?

Apparently not -- the little girl shouted out to the stranger to stop, to come back. But the stranger just smiled and said, "You come, too." The girl knew she shouldn't, but she was so curious to see how the trend setters lived, she couldn't help herself. Unsure of herself, she quietly followed the stranger.

They went inside the trend setter's dwelling. It was amazing. The stranger noticed the girl was staring.

"Nice, isn't it?" s/he said, "You should see the place where I come from."

"Oh no," said the girl, "There are the trend setters."

"The who?" the stranger replied.

"Eww, what is it?" one trend setter said.



"I don't know, but it doesn't belong here," spoke another. The little girl hid her face.

"Not you, silly," said one, "The one with the red hat."

"I am here to deliver an important message." said the stranger.

"Well tell us then," said the first trend setter, rudely.

"Your town, Pie ville, has been found to be a creator of mistreatment. Also, you have not paid your fees to live in it. There for, all the residents of this site will be found homes, in a newer, and better city." The stranger announced.

"And what city will we be moving too?"

"We?" said the stranger, "I don't think so. Not unless I see some positive change in you alls attitudes. I don't know where you will be living, I'm only a messenger for this W.E.B." The stranger smiled, and looked at the little girl. "Come on, my friend," s/he said, "We're going to your new home, Whyville."
