CHAPTER ONE: First Meeting
I woke when I heard, or rather, felt, another person in the warehouse. I was instantly alert. All my senses, especially my hearing and eyesight, were sharpened. The person was humming softly under their breath. Cautiously, I looked out from under the bed where I hid. A man stood there, surveying the warehouse, his back towards me. When he moved, it was with an almost cat-like grace. The walk of a man who has seen horrors beyond imagination, and survived to fight back. He wasn't overly tall; just the 'right' size. He had short, dark, black-brown hair. I had the impression of darkness before I hid again. "Not evil darkness," I thought to myself. "Rather, a man who has seen evil, almost at it's worst, and tried to fix it." I flattened myself as the man sat on the bed. "Who is he? This man who sleeps in a warehouse?"" I mused, as I waited for the man to go to sleep. He did. Slowly, I crept out from my hiding place. Every sense alert, I crept toward the door in absolute blackness, feeling along the wall. "The door! Finally!" I thought as I felt the doorknob. Suddenly, all the lights came on, blinding me momentarily with their brightness.
