Prologue

Obviously, it was a nightmare.

Perhaps there were inky storm clouds. Sheets of rain. Maybe even some blood; a body that lay on a rooftop of a lone building six streets north. Two of the three choices were correct–minus the body; although the probability of seeing a dead body on a rooftop is typically common, in a horror film.

It was obscure, an eerie wonder. A real morbid repulsion to see darkness entwined in one's surroundings in a nightmare. Black and leaden grey, his vision was filled with spidery cracks, sometimes even reaching a light grey in colour. He insisted it didn't hurt, that this was not some horror film, a misfortune. The world is perfect, he said. Ecstasy flows through my veins as we speak.

He was still referred to as a young adolescent. Aloof, sarcastic. An unhealthy obsession with unanswerable questions. He was no child prodigy. Just curious. About the world.

He had three other brothers. Quadruplets, they were. Second oldest. At age sixteen, each had a define personality.

Perhaps his name was Raphael. A nightmare in himself. An enigma, the misunderstood, the perfect test subject for the Foot Clan. The perfect accident.

A nightmare.
