The Beginning

How it all Started
It all started, or I guess you could say it did, on the last week of
summer when most kids would be ending their vacations at the beach or
getting back home from visiting their relatives, and, of course, dreading
the thought of the coming of the new school year. However, some are
not quite as lucky in that area as others are, like those who attended the
same school as the main character of this book. It was on that day that a
thirteen-year-old boy woke up and stared out of the window of his small
bleak room. His skin was a light brown almost caramel complexion, and
his hair was short and black, pressed down against his scalp. His eyes were
a dark brown, with a ring of black edged around the Pupil. If you looked
closely in the center of the darkness there was a small spark of golden
light, barely noticeable, like staring at the heart of the Universe through
an infinite expanse of space.
