Prologue

Rain was falling hard and as it fell it hit the roof of the immense gray house with an eerie air around it. The people inside were asleep so they didn't notice the woman in the dark cloak with a baby in her arms, walk up the stone steps to the elaborate wooden door. She hugged the baby tight to her chest and caressed its cheek. As she laid the infant down

she whispered "Someday you will be our hero, but for now to be a hero you must be safe."

She laid the baby down and rang the door bell, as she left tears sprang into her eyes. The woman looked back one more time, just in time to see the door open and see a man bend down and pick up her baby.

"My baby" the woman moaned, the man who picked up the child heard her and looked up, only to see nothing.
