Bow Ties
by... Oh, that's right, me!
Prologue
So... This would be an introduction to a book, right? I'm not quite sure myself, I mean, I'm no Willy Shakespear. Thank god for spell check too or I'd be doomed. At least I have time to be typing, I've been wanting to do this for weeks... No, I'm lying. More like since yesterday...Or maybe a couple hours ago...
Let's just move on.
To start from the beginning, my name is Bandit, but you guys can just refer to me as Bo. It wasn't always like that though. See, I'm not exactly... Normal. I'm actually kind of a freak. I was made in some sterio-typical scary lab, and I'm what you would call a mutant...Yes, a mutant.
...Has it sunken in yet? No? Okay, well try this on for size, you judgemental reader, you. As a mutant, I'm a mix of DNA, but not just human DNA. I'm part animal. Part bird, if you want to be specific. 5% bird, if you want to be even more specific. Plus there's always the side power perks. But that's for later in this book.
I remember clearly, though, that when I was still known as experiment 111695, the van transporting me had somehow crashed, and that was how I made my getaway. I made it all the way to a city, and from there, I stumbled into a convention.
Oh, that convention. I had never seen things like that in my life before. What attracted me the most though, was a section of the convention dedicated to steampunks. Yes. It was my calling to be that, I thought, as my eyes wandered on the inventions made from scrap metal. Especially the brown bow tie that was just sitting on a table. It looked as if someone had just sown pieces of leather together to make it, but I loved it. I had to had it. So, I decided to simply take it.
It didn't go too well... In other words, I was caught. Caught by a steampunk, who then gave me the name-
Wait. Apparently I'm writing this wrong. Apparently, I'm supposed to just gie you all this information throughout the book, not just give everything away. Well I like everything to be given away! I'm no writer, okay Max?
Oh, oops! That's giving out information for later, too! Dang it...
Just keep reading, yes?
