Awakening

Act One-Scene One

Hello, my name is Allen Walker Cromwell; & this is my story.

The date is May 6, 2017, it's one month & 2 days till my birthday I'll turn 17; when I was younger I was very intelligent for someone my age. As I grew up it was quickly decided to put me into the larger & advanced classes with all the Freshman, Juniors, & Seniors. Even though I was 11 at the time all the work & assignments were surprisingly easy for me; as a few years past I graduated high school at 14 & went to college right after. I quickly advanced through all my courses in 2 years' time getting the degrees I went for. Many people would constantly talk about me or call me a genius which lead to people trying to take advantage of me. I always had a rough time growing up; I didn't have many friends or anyone I could talk to due to my own insecurity, & slight shy but serious personality. As I grew up I tried to improve on my weaknesses & due to my situation I joined many different Martial Arts, & Kendo clubs to try & make friends. I was naturally gifted at whatever I tried but as time passed people began to fear me & called me a monster. As a few years passed I became the undefeated champion of Mixed Martial Arts, Kendo, Judo, Karata, Muay Thai & many other martial arts; but it only made things worse for me as people became more frightened of me. I've always enjoyed a challenge no matter what it might be, but I can easily lose interest after it no longer seems fun, interesting, or if is just a waste of time. People always avoided me, but I did care much; when I was still competing in competitions, it was always hard to find someone who could match me or last long enough for a warm up, so I later stood down as Champion & left the clubs, dojos, & sports I joined; unfortunately, that didn't stop people from fearing me. After I graduated college with all my degrees I was called the youngest, smartest, & terrifying person recorded in history. As I left the college grounds some men in suits calming are from the military gave me an offer to lead a top-secret research & development compound. Of course, I accepted because struck my interest at the time, they also offered a good pay. When I first arrived they constantly gave me funding for research as I developed new & dangerous advanced weapons, & machinery to increase the strength of the government I worked for. That was 1 & a half years ago, I've worked for them since. As the day ended I called a taxi to go home & laid down in my room…

Mother: "Allen dear, can you come down here please," said a woman's voice.

Allen: "Be right their Mom," I responded standing up as get off my bed to open the door & walked down the hallway to descend down the stairs into the Livingroom.

When I got downstairs I walked into the Livingroom & see both my Mom & Dad sitting on the couch looking unsettled or nervous as if something was wrong.

Allen: "Mom, is there something wrong;" I asked concerned.

Mother: "Can you sit down; me & your father have somethings we need to talk to you about," said Allen's Mother.

Allen: "Okay," I said confused; as I sit down on the couch I ask them, "What's this about."

Father: "We've kept something very complicated from you & we believe it's time we told you."

Mother: "You see you're not exactly or son," said Allen Step Mom.

Allen: "What... What are you saying;" I said in a shocked tone standing up.

Mother: "I know what you're probably thinking, but that's not exactly all there is, you're also not exactly human," said Allen's Step Mom trying to keep a straight face.

Allen: "Really, if I'm not human then what am I," I asked trying my best from reacting at how ridiculous it sounds.

Father: "We don't know for sure... The person who gave you use, claimed she was your birth mother & asked for use to keep you safe from anything that could or would bring you harm even at the cost of our lives if needed. After we agreed to her request she ran off & disappeared. What a strange & bizarre woman," said Allen Step Mom.

I then got up & headed towards hallway.

Mother: "Where are you going," asked Allen's Step Mom.

Allen: "I'm changing my cloths, I've worn these all day. I also need some time to think so I'm going out somewhere to cool off," I responded with slight tone.

After I changed I had a dark gloomy look with a Men's White Shirt, Slim Dark Grey Fit Men's Suit, with a Red Colonel Tie, Black Single-Breasted Long Trench Coat going down to my ankles, with White Gloves, Knee-High Black Steel Tipped Combat Boots, a Black Fedora hat with a wide floppy brim, & a pair of circular, heavily tinted, wire-framed orange sunglasses with goggle sidings to match with my jacket. As I left the house it was raining, my step mom stood up as if about to follow me, but my stepdad stops her.

Father: "Let him go honey he can take care of himself, anyway he needs to come back on his own time; let's just hope he gets home safe," said Allen's Step Dad holding her.

As soon as I got outside I started running as fast as I could to a patch of cliffs where a single Cherry Blossom Tree grew at the highest point. After a couple hours pass it's 5 minutes till midnight, & when I reached the top of the cliff I sat down on a bench 3ft from the edge. As I looked up at the sky I began thinking to myself.
