Lilly stepped to the side to allow miss Katie in the room, Katie walked over and sat on the bed beside Jake who was all the way back in the corner with the covers wrapped around her.

After a few minutes Katie begin talking.
“Jake why are you scarred of me all of the sudden”
Jake looked toward the desk and said to look in the top drawer, miss Katie got up and opened it to see an old weather worn note book.

“Where did you get this”
“In the old tower”
“Why were you up there”
“It’s where I go to get away from everybody”.

Katie held the book to her chest and started crying.
“I don’t know why I did what I did to Christy, I was a stupid kid who thought he was better then everyone else. And when we found her that day“, she paused as she was sobbing very hard.

“I…I..wa…was so evil I was a fucking monster”.
After she calmed down a bit Jake and Lilly sat on either side of her while she told her story.

“The school used to be a boys boarding school and reformatory, my dad sent me here cause he thought it would straighten me out and make me a better man”.

“I was the big dog on campus, the one no one messed with”.

“When I first met Christy or Christopher I was the biggest jerk ever” she was small at about five feet three, she even looked like a girl the way she was wearing her long blond hair”.

“She was on the welcoming committee and welcomed me to the school, as she was showing me around I made a few comments about how she looked and then I grabbed the back of her underwear and pulled it almost to her shoulders”.

“And after that I just tortured her throughout the rest of the school year”

“I had been going to the school for my forth year when it happened”

“Me and two of my friends were going to the football field when Garret one of my friends who was also Christy’s roommate needed to get something from his room”

“”When we opened the door we found this cute looking girl with a shocked look on her face standing in the room”.

“At first I thought it was a friend of Christy’s, but then it hit me and..”

Katie started sobbing again.
“What I did was something that only a heartless monster would do”.

“It was two days later when she was found in the same dress at the base of the tower where she had jumped off”.

“I didn’t think nothing about it for quit a few years until’ I had just returned from dessert storm after my time in the army and was hanging out at this bar in my home town”.

“I was drunk as a dog and could barely defend myself when these guys grabbed me”.

“I don’t remember anything after that, I only remember waking up a few months later with the body of a girl”.
“I still had my boy’s but they had shriveled to almost nothing”.

“When I was told why I was there I was furious and wanted to kill everybody involved”

Jake and Lilly were silent as she continued.

“I was trained as a maid and forced to serve the Helens family, after a while they somewhat slacked up and where actually kind of nice to me”.

“It was two years later and I was given a lot of freedom to do as I pleased as long as I did my work”

I couldn’t run away because I had nowhere to go, and I actually liked working for miss Helens by then, before she kidnapped me my life was going down hill, I had just started cocaine when she grabbed me if that tells you anything“.

“So I was some what thankful for what she had done for me, “we became good friends and after a while she started helping me get my collage degree in computer engineering“.

“As time went by I heard more and more stories about Christy and how much of a sweet person she was, “I started feeling really bad about what I had done.

“Miss Helens saw this in her reports from my husband who was at the time my physiatrist”.

Miss Katie smiled “She came to me one day and we talked and she completely for gave me”.

“But I couldn’t forgive myself and I probably never will”.

“When did they turn you into a real girl” Lilly asked.

“One day I was shopping with miss Helens when I started to stare at this beautiful bikini, “I was sad that I could never wear it without people knowing that I was a man”.

“Miss Helens saw me looking at it and asked why I don’t I buy it,” “ I told her why and I thought she let it drop”.

“On our way back home she told me about a new procedure her company was working on and I agreed to be her first human subject”.

Katie laid back on the bed, and a took a deep breath.

“Do you girls believe in karma”.
Jake and Lilly looked at each other.
“I guess they both said”.

Katie had a pain filled look on her face. As she continued.

“I was on my way home from the town farmers market one day when I was grabbed by this group of men, they carried me into and alley beat me up and made me feel what I made Christy feel”.

At this point Miss Katie was sobbing into one of Jake’s pillows as the two girls tried to console her.

After a few minutes she was calm enough to continue.

“I had just had my surgery two weeks before and that made it worse“.

“When miss Helens body guard found me I was taken to the hospital, I wouldn’t eat or drink anything so they kept feeding me through tubes and IV lines”.

“It took about three weeks before I said anything to anyone”.

“After a while It sit in that that was how it must have been for Christy, when I did it to her”

“At that point I decided that I deserved what had happened to me, “Because no matter how much I changed I was still the monster who drove a sweet ,kind and beautiful young girl to take her own life because of my closed mindedness”.

“YOUR WRONG” Jake yelled.

“In the short time I’ve known you I’ve thought you were one of the kindest people I have ever met”

“And when I found out the pain I caused you my heart felt like it had been ripped out”.

“And I know from experience that no one should ever have to go through what we went through”.

Now it was Jake’s turn to cry as Lilly pulled her into a hug.

“What do you mean you know” Miss Katie asked as she wiped her eyes with her shirt sleeve.

that’s when Lilly explained what happened to Jake.
By the end all three girls were in one big group hug with tears falling every where.

After they all calmed down Katie continued her story.

“It took a good long time for me to recover, “if it wasn’t for Eric I probably would have killed myself at some point” “in those months following my attack we fell in love and later we where married with miss Helens insisting she paying for everything of Corse”

“It was almost a year after the wedding before we made love Eric never asked me because he knew I was still recovering. Then one day it just happened, to my surprise I got pregnant on the first go”.

“I was truly happy with life again”

“Miss Katie” Jake asked.
“Yes Jake”

“I am so sorry for what I did and if I could take it back I would”.

Jake was starting to dry sob.

Katie pulled Jake into a hug, “ Jake I for give you, I was very upset at first but then I realized it wouldn’t bring my daughter back if I hate you”.
And if there is one thing I have learned in my life is hatred holds you back and robs you of life, so it is best to forgive and move on“.

“But how could you forgive me just like that” Jake asked in-between sobs.

“Because my daughter forgave you”.
“What do you mean” “sniff sniff “.

“In the note she left she made it very clear that she had forgiven you for what you said in the emails”.

“She had a lot of problems that she hid from us very well, and by the time we found out it was to late”.

“She really was just like Christy”.
“How was she just like her”. Lilly asked.

“When miss Helens started the IFBW, she bought this place, the day we arrived I had something I had to do”.

“I went to a store in town and bought a single rose, then I made my way to the old tower where they found Christy”.

Miss Katie looked out the window. “I don’t know why I decided to go in the tower but I did”.

“I pulled away the old faded police line tape that just fell apart as soon as I touched it and went in”.

“When I got to the top floor I found this book”. she said while she flipped through it.

“I was exhausted from crying by the time I got to the last page”.

She flipped to the last page in the book and pointed to the bottom of the page witch was missing.

Jake thought about it and realized he never gave the missing part much thought.

Miss Katie reached for her small purse and looked inside, she pulled out a small piece of paper that was sealed in a piece of plastic and handed it to Jake.

It read.

“PS. I wont allow myself to die with hate in my heart, I forgive Chad and everyone who made my life a living hell at this place I just hope one day they realize there actions and find forgiveness for themselves. Maybe one day I can forgive them face to face in the after life, whether in hell or in heaven I don’t know but one day“.

“I took this piece of the page and left this book with the rose in the tower”

“It actually made me mad that I found it”.
“Why” the girls asked.
“Because the fact that it was still in that tower means the police never even went in the tower”.
But it means that they just called her case just some little fag who couldn’t handle a little teasing so they never investigated it”.

“I don’t know how she forgave me so quick but I do know that its not that easy for me to forgive myself, No matter how hard I try I just can’t do’ it, but who knows what the future holds right”.

The three of them talked and talked until it was dark outside and miss Katie and Lilly left, Jake had learned a lot about miss Katie more then she ever knew before.

Like the fact that she had three more kids a boy Eric Jr. 12. and twin girls Stacy and Samantha 8.

Jake went to bed that night and had the most peaceful dream in a long time, she didn’t dream about Gloria instead she dreamed she was standing in a large grassy field with rolling hills and a mountain in the background, the full moon was so bright she could see everything, she was barefoot and wearing simple white dress that was almost like a night gown.

She looked in front of her to see a very pretty blond headed girl standing there in the same dress smiling, another girl walked pass Jake from behind her.

The brown haired girl walked over to the blond girl and turned around, the girl looked just like Jake.
Jake stood there and watched as a large golden gate appeared out of nowhere, Jake smiled and waved as the two girls walked hand in hand through the gate with very peaceful smiles on there faces as it closed behind them. And with a bright flash of light the gate disappeared and Jake woke up smiling to herself.

Lilly came into Jake’s room later in the morning to find Jake sitting at the desk on her lap top, “Good morning Jake how did you sleep” she asked as she sat down on the bed.

“I slept really good for the first time in a long time”.
“That’s good Jake”.
“Hey Lilly”.

“Yeah Jake”
“Can you start calling me Amy”.
“Sure I can, is that a name you just came up with”.
“No it’s the name my mom told me she would have given me if I had been born a girl”.

“That’s a very pretty name”.
“Thank you”.

A few days later Kevin asked Amy out on a date to the campus movies, as they walked back from the movies Kevin asked her why she had changed her name.

Amy took him to her room and called Lilly over, together they explained everything to him.
They showed him there scars and explained as much they could to him.

To there surprise he believed them, that’s when they learned that his sister was one of miss Helens special students and after she finished the program she kept going to the school until she graduated the year before, the reason he was here was that his parents after they found out what happened to her and forgave miss Helens for what she did, decided he could receive a better education here at the school.

“I don’t care that you used to be a boy I still love you and want to be your boyfriend if you would let me” he stated as he kissed Amy’s hand.

The next few months flew by and Amy stopped thinking about her past, she focused on her studies and her friends and more importantly her boyfriend.

She started kickboxing with Lilly and even resumed playing the piano, the first time she sat behind the large baby grand in the music hall, it was like she never stopped.

Amy was the happiest she had ever been in her whole life.

She absolutely loved the feelings of being a girl, she loved the clothes and the way she didn’t have to hide her emotions, but the thing she loved the most was how safe she felt when Kevin held her in his strong arms.

In the months since she fully accepted her new life as a girl, she had made friends with both miss Melisa and Sandra Helens as well as miss Katie and Dr. Eric.

Every now and then she would think about her family and wonder if they would accept her the way she is now. Every time she talked about it with anyone they would assure her they would do everything in there power to make sure she was accepted by her family.

With only two months before her release, Amy and Lilly were sitting with Ben and Kevin at the mess hall when all students were told over the loud speaker to report to the auditorium.

After they were seated miss Melisa Helens walked out on the stage and began her speech.

“Students I am proud to announce that we have opened a new school to the south in Georgia”. the students clapped.

“In order to assure it’s success in starting, I will personally be overseeing it for it’s first year.

“So in my absence I have found a woman who I believe has what it takes to run this school while I am gone, I would please like you to please welcome your new head mistress.” “Miss. Jordan pierce”.

A tall shapely redheaded woman who didn’t look a day over thirty walked out onto the stage and to the microphone as the students all applauded.

Lilly looked to her left to see Amy standing and staring at the woman, suddenly Amy had a shocked look on her face and her whole body including her hair tensed up.

Amy pushed her way through the crowed and ran out of the auditorium with a worried Lilly in close pursuit.
