Prologue

A giant T stands in the middle of Jump City Lake. I see it everyday, on the deck of my apartment house on the Lake. It looms there, never changing, as if separated from humanity. At night, a light laminates from the top of it, sweeping over the city, like an eye.

I take it as an omen.

For months now I've been hiding here. Ever since that day at the trial, I wanted to restart my life. But I can't. I can never live a normal life. My past is twisted and confusing. I was born into a gang, my father being the leader. When I was born my mother tried to take me away from the life I would have to endure. Before she could do anything, my father killed her, sparing my life.

I was the heir. At the age of 13 I took my test into the gang. All the members lined up, once across from the other. Bracing myself I walked down the two lines. Instantly I felt the kicks, the punches, the grabbing, and scratching spitting. By the time I reached the center, my ribs were cracked, my skin was spangled with bruises, and my vision blurred. But if I stayed there they would kill me. So I struggled to the end. I was nearly dead, but I made it.

And I regret it.

The pain was not worth it. I should have died when I had the chance. And now, because of who I am, because of my mistake, because of the one good choice I made, I'm sitting here looking off at that great big T in the middle of the lake, with the light swooping across.

And I just know it's my dad watching for me.

Ok, super short but it gets longer! its 2am right now. Please read and review!!! Thanxx.
