ok thank ya and i will check out those rules
Hello Pointe, Pink here, as requested

First of all, I welcome you to YWS. As a gift, I'll give you a penguin!
Anyways, on to the review!
*The first thing I noticed is the length of this post. Posting such long things can scare reviewers away so maybe you should have posted this in segments or something to make it easier to review :3
#FF0000 ">WARNING: This review is a bit long and slightly in depth, be prepared.
_____
->1. You need to study your quotation punctuation as well as comma rules. YWS has a pretty good forum for this and maybe you could browse through it and it'll help you out. Link: forum151.html
But here are my examples:
"Do you think we've lost them?" Sonny asked, turning around and facing her sisters, Jane and Marilyn.
"My guess is no," Marilyn joked. The girls spun slowly in a circle, watching as the scarlet ring members emerged *from the darkness.
See the difference? Good grammar and punctuation is must.
->2. You need periods. I only saw one in this entire paragraph. Make sure you know where to put your periods and where not to. I seriously suggest you brush up on those rules before posting, it makes it easier for us reviewers to read you work, and appreciate it. I know you said this is your first time writing, so I suppose it's okay. But take our suggestions and learn some of the rules. We're here to help you become better
Also, this is super short to be a prologue. I mean, nothing even happens. All you read is that a bunch of people are following some girls and we have no understanding of anything, neither do you take the liberty to explain that to us.
What is a prologue? An introductory scene in which a narrator summarizes the main action of the work.
You have not succeeded that doing that with your introduction. Why not explain who the people are? What they want? What the Ring members do? Such things would make it more prologue-ish.
Part I:
In all honestly, I find this chapter to be more like a prologue than the previous one. Also, you have some pretty weird sentences here and a bit of typos and all. I suggest you reread this and fix those mistakes. For example:
I have bolded the weird part of this. Also, this one long sentence that has absolutely no pauses. It's runny and you need a comma here and there. Ex- "Anyway, the people knew their plant was going to blow up, so they fled to planet Earth, of course. (Please, please add more periods and use commas)
One more note for this chapter. I'm not sure if it's just me, but I find your explanation to the planet an their people very confusing. You say Scarlet ring but I still don't know what's going on. The thing is, you might get the story and understand it but to us, we're clueless. Try to explain everything in detail, this is a new world you're creating and we need more understanding than you do. So, try your best to not interrupt your explanations with random thoughts and get on with the main, basic feature. Build a strong foundation for us so we know what you're talking about and what you're saying. Otherwise, we'll be standing here like confused penguins! >.<
The bolded sentence made no sense. Reread it and see what I mean? Who are you talking about? The scarlet ring members? All your sentences are mixed together and I can't tell where one thought ends and where one begins XP
**So I had planned to do a chapter by chapter review but I'm seeing the same mistakes and I don't want to be repetitive. So instead, I'll just go ahead and give you my overall thoughts on this.**
Plot
I think, if you spent more time on this and gave more descriptions and actually drew the story out instead of telling it to us, this could be a pretty neat plot. You have the idea out but you fail to execute it to it's full potential. You said, this is your first time, so there's still time for you to edit and rewrite. I know it's hard to rewrite and it's hectic but if you really like this plot and idea, I think you should most definitely rewrite this. You need to give us more information on your characters and this new world that you've created. Remember, we don't have any idea what it is. So, you as our superior (lol) must delicately lay out the information in a mannerly fashion in order for us to understand what this story is about. Even as I finished reading this, I was still confused to what the scarlet ring was and what you meant by the Mary-rose society.
Characters
When writing a novel, it's important to have you characters connect to the readers. What makes them realistic? What makes them more human? Give details of their personalities and tell us their strengths and weaknesses. Without that, your characters are merely just puppets in an ongoing play. We don't really care what happens to them and we just read on without thinking about them or caring about them.
Grammar/Punctuation
Out of all the areas, this one needs to be addressed the most. Go back and study up on your comma placements, and correct quotation punctuation. Remember to add periods and bring sentences together. Remember, more practice writing is the key. Keep writing and you'll get better, no worries. At first, sure, it can be hard and maybe you might get frustrated but if you're really serious, you should definitely go back review those rules. It can help bring your work to a whole new level and make it readable and easier for us reviewers to do our job. With all honesty, when I see a piece with too many grammatical errors, I don't even bother to read it. It could be a great story but seeing mistakes like that can have some people running away. So, with that being said, I hope you go back and possibly rewrite this.
Wow, I'm sorry for going on and on, haha. I just felt like helping you out a little. Hopefully I didn't come across as rude or harsh, it wasn't my intention. I'm really trying to help you become a better writer so your work can be read and enjoyed in the near future. With that said, if you still have any questions or just need some help, you're free to PM me. I'll be more than happy to explain anything or just lend a helping hand.
I wish you the best of luck!

Okay maybe i flipped out and I'm sorry thanks for your feedback
OK LISTEN IT WAS THE FIRST TIME I EVER WROTE A BOOK AND TO ME IT LOOKS PRETTY GOOD> BUT WHATEVER YOU WANT TO THINK
#4000BF ">This is the intro to your story, I'm not seeing much, or feeling really anything. Add strong description, add emotion.
#4000BF ">Really?
YOu don't need what the Exact pamphlet says, or what the exact schedule is. Instead, add what your MC is feeling
#4000BF "> I'm not really seeing any character development. Or, a visual of what your character looks like.
OVERALL~
Please, please, please pretty please go back and edit.
YOur grammar was shocking. You had a few run-on sentance, missing commas, all of that.
My thoughts
This wasn't that great. It's lacking in almost everything that can make your writing great (Such as strong, clear description and emotion.)
But keep working
