My next NEXO Knights fanfiction. A news to all who read this. There will be weekly, WEEKLY, updates on this. So, no asking me about updates. I will upload one chapter a week. This is Clay in the movie Matilda. There will be some similarities but also some differences. Hope Y'all enjoy.

Wanda Moorington, brother to Merlok and Monstrox, was one of the few female wizards left in the world. Monstrox had taken over Knighton about a year ago when her son was born. He was a very special boy. He was destined to defeat Monstrox. She knew that she had two choices, run away with Clay or leave him with another family and hope he never discovers his magic. Wanda loved her son but knew what she had to do. She had to leave her son with someone else. Clay didn't deserve to be moved from place to place without too many questions. Clay deserved a happy childhood with a loving family and as much as she trusted her brother, Merlok, she didn't want Monstrox to find out because if he did, Clay would lose his life and she didn't want to leave him behind but she knew that she had no choice. So, one night she ran.

It's the middle of the night. Wanda is wearing a clock is running with a blue blanket in a bundle in her arms. 'I must protect Clay. The only way I can do that is to let him go.' She ran in a suburban area. She just ran up to a house that she already knew had a son. All she could hope for is that they take good care of him. She set him down on the porch and quickly wrote a note.

To the family that lives here,

Please take care of my son. I had to leave him here because I fear for his safety. Please treat him as if he was your own.

I can't say much but he is a special boy. His name is Clay. He's a very good child. He won't cry in the middle of the night, he is very smart and is a very kind baby. I promise to return one day to pick him up. Please tell him about me. I don't ever want Clay to forget his mother.

Sincerely,

His mother, Wanda

Once she finished her note she folded it, set it down near him, kissed him on the forehead one last time, and left with tears running down her face. The baby didn't move a muscle till the next morning when the family found him and took him in. They registered him with the foster home agency and brought him back home but cared little about him. They just used him to get money every month. But little did they know is that the boy they took in would soon save an entire school, find true love with a princess, and even find his true family. Yes, sir. Clay was destined for greatness. After all, there's a prophecy just about him and he would find it before anyone even knew that it was anything but a myth.

I know it's short but I promise that the next several chapters are longer. I hope Y'all enjoy. Remember, I will only update once a week. This is already finished on my wattpad account if you want to read it there. Username is Starpower638. Don't forget to fav, follow, and review, please. See Y'all next time.
