Your new to Rosewood, you moved from New Jersey, your parents decided to move because your father cheated on your mother with another woman. In the end they forgave each other and decided to move. Your father was abusive and your mother just let it slide. She was more wordy. You and your big brother wanted out until one day, on September the 1st, 2009, he disappeared. Never seen again. Now you were left alone to deal with your parents and the weird ‘A’ texts messages you’ve been rarely receiving since your brother, Ethan, had disappeared. The police didn’t really fall into it, as they were more concerned for another girl, a few towns over. Named Alison Dilaurentis. Who coincidentally disappeared the same night.

Weird thing was, you looked like Alison. You didn’t even know it. Every time there was a missing poster of the smiling face of the blonde girl, the manipulation of Alison, your parents would quickly avert and change direction and subject. You have heard of her, just never heard her voice. Right down to the hair, the nose, and the voice, you were her clone.

It’s September 18th 2010, it’s your first day of your new school, Rosewood High. It’s 9:00am, your school begins at 9:45am. You’re in your room doing your makeup and hair, and your dad yells at you from downstairs. “Scarlet, get your sorry ass down here now!” He was already drunk. Great.
