A/N: Hello, world. Maybe some of you have read my other story in the making, Daddy's Little Monster, and decided to pick this one up. Or maybe you've only ever seen this story in which case I welcome you to the intricate inner workings of my mind. DLM fans, you should know that this story is rated T for a reason because it has a lot more violence than the other story and a bit of a darker theme, but also is secretly my favorite. I really hope you all love this story as much as I do and without further babbling on my part... enjoy.
Prologue
Gray Minute
3rd Person POV
Laughter echoed through the dank, hollow air of the back alley. This closed off section of the city was not used to company, especially not at this hour, and the abandoned environment as a whole tensed at the unwelcome visitor. The dim, gloomy light of the full moon was the only aid to eyes not conditioned to the engulfing blackness. The laughter continued, louder now as its owner ventured deeper into the depts. It was unnatural, yet it dared to continue.
Finally, the figure revealed itself to the watching alley and it silently took inventory of the sight. A young man in a simple hood strolled unaware of the setting around him, instead focusing on a distant point in space as he continued to laugh. He held a phone up to his ear, carelessly rambling on a conversation in between the chuckles. A sudden crash sounded by a corner draped in shadow, startling the man enough to put his conversation on hold and finally realise how far he had strayed from civilization.
Frowning, he double-checked his phone's GPS to find the same directions as before. The little red dot flashed on the screen, telling him he had arrived at his destination. His frown deepened.
"What?! This ain't no pizza place! Stupid th -," The man's frustrated complaint was cut off by a swift movement knocking the phone out of his hands and latching onto his throat. The shadows came alive! was his first weary thought. But as the shock cleared, he realised it wasn't shadows at all, but a teenage boy half his size and yet somehow twice his strength. The boy continued to choke the struggling man effortlessly, his grip only tightening as the man was resorting to wild animalistic insincts in his frenzy to get away.
"Who... are... you?" The man managed to gasp out breathlessly, his life ebbing before him.
"Everyone has a different theory, but I'm hoping this will make it perfectly clear who I am." The boy replied calmy, unfazed by his feeble attacks.
"A... k-killer?" The man asked weakly, no longer bothering trying to escape his deadly grasp. It was already over.
"Close." The boy answered. The man's head lolled forward lifelessly and he finally let go, letting his body slump awkwardly against the stone wall. "Spike."
A/N: So, what did you think? Please please please tell me in a review! They are what keep me writing! By the way, the reason this chapter was so short is because it's only a prologue, but if you guys think I should continue, the regular chapters will be longer - I promise. You write a review, I write a chapter. Thanks for reading, bye! :)
