The Shadow Man
Chapter 1
It was an early Wednesday morning, 6:00. Noah C. Huggins, a scientist, husband, and loving father of 2 kids, is still in bed, dreaming about the day that was ahead. As the sun slowly lifted in the sky, beams of light began to peer through the nearby window, giving the room a warm glow. Suddenly, the doorknob opens, and his two kids came bursting through the door. Their names were Charlotte and Kole, 8 and 9 respectively.
"Dad, Dad, Dad! Wake up, it's almost time for school!" said Kole, as he climbed up and jumped excitedly on the bed.
Charlotte began to pull Noah's hand hanging off the bed, saying, "Today's 'Bring Your Parents to School Day', GET UP!"
He chuckles, slowly getting up, and says, "Okay, okay guys. *eheheh* Let me get dressed, and I'll meet you in the kitchen."
"You better hurry, Dad. Mom's making eggs and bacon, and you know how much I LOOOOOVE bacon," says Kole. He then grabs his sister's hand, and runs back down the hall, both giggling. After standing up to stretch, he proceeds to the bathroom, still smiling about his kids.
After about 20 minutes, Noah emerges from the bathroom. His freshly showered hair smelled of a summer breeze, his golden brown, extremely wavy hair neatly combed, and he was dawned in a black collar shirt, blue jeans, and pristine white lab coat. He walks to the kitchen, greeted by the smell of freshly cooked bacon, to see his wife in a beautiful apron and hair-bun.
"Good morning, Noah," she chimes with a soothing, loving voice. "Good morning, Brook. My, my, what a delicious breakfast you've got cookin' over here. It almost looks half as beautiful as you."
Brook was a short, beautiful woman with short blonde hair, and eyes that glow a bright blue. She was always kind, never shouting in anger, and made it very difficult to be afraid or upset at her, or her to anyone else. She blushes and smiles brightly at the flattery.
"Thank you! So, are you ready to wow the kids' classmates today with that big brain of yours?"
"You bet! I mean, who else's father gets to be a super cool, super smart scientist, leading one of the biggest experiments that could change the world at none other, than Yale university?" he says, clearly proud of his achievements. "Oh, and after speaking today, I'm heading off to the lab to begin our first major test today. We're finally gonna make some progress! If all goes well, we will be the first to discover how to instantly make diamonds out of coal, whenever we want."
He begins to walk away, but stops, and suddenly turns around, remembering something. "Also, I talked to some of the higher-ups, and they said the first diamond we make, I can keep as a special gift to a certain someone." He winks, and Brook's face lights up with excitement.
"Oh my goooood, thank you! *Sigh* I love you so much, Kole." He comes closer, and puts his hands on her shoulder. He says softly, "I love you too, Brook." They lean in for a kiss, then Kole takes a plate. He grabs some food, and heads to the table to enjoy breakfast with his family.
