Chapter 1 - Family Issues

"Many things in this life feels so unreal

How did I end up being in a despicable place and feeling insecure at same time

Never thought or dreamt of becoming such a worthless person in this life"

This was the speech made by Jack before his sudden death,

He always wishes he become a better hero, a good guidance to his little brother upbringing, after all life didn't go the same way as expected, nothing goes as planned.

"Life is always moving in opposite direction,some get to where they are right now because of their families or friends, but I hope along the road you will get to meet someone, maybe even a stranger who will impact great knowledge and purpose to your life",

That statement was inscribed on the stone left for Jack by their grandfather , but now has to be passed down to his little brother since their father failed to fulfill his duty .

The family legacy continued, now that the first heir is gone, all responsibilities must be passed down to the second born , be it a male or female, there are many strange things and secrets the Noble family kept hidden to their young son, but this time around life turns a new leaf as he must learn to keep a secret which he had never known about.

Unfortunately after the death of Jack,his family had to move on , even change locations in order to keep their family secret hidden and younger son safe from the hands of their foes , both known and unknown,' it is said who knows you can kill you faster," so they have to move to a different neighborhood where they become total strangers,

In this unknown city not yet known to Jack younger brother , everyone stays quiet and never alter a word to each other , everyone seem to her great interest in whatever they are doing and don't care about the affair of their neighbors even if they are drowning , he attended a strange school, well this is the part everything become interesting, listen attentively and read carefully..

This school has no name , it was creepy and every beginning of the month it is said that children often go missing , Dead bodies are often found every October after Halloween, it is also said that this school is being haunted by the ghosts of the innocent children who where being massacred during the 10th centuries; well who cares ?

you can hear cry of babies , child torture during the night , yet people attend this school despite all the things happening, I won't lie this place is quite creepy,being the only outsider and not having clue what is happening is something else. Am having a bad feeling something fishy is going on in this strange city not yet known , men sit home and women do go to work, isn't that strange.

With no doubt or much hesitation the young boy, had to quit school , staying at home was a worst case and the worst scenario ever happened. Object moved without even being touched;, imagine you alone in your room the light went off no electric bridge or obstruction and your door just slammed, boom your teddy bear just blinked , well let me don't scare you off; this was the case of this young boy and his new surrounding, you can look at a mirror and your reflection may smile at you , well this is just a normal thing around here , every one gets used to it , as mom always say, "don't worry it's a new environment, you will get used to it , you'll get over it soon". Man no way any one can get over his shadow walking ahead of him , seeing your shadow standing up to you. Don't freak out !!!

Believe it or not , this seems normal to everyone living in this small remote city.

Nothing is strange and no one holds you an explanation,Hell nahh!!! No one holds you an explanation;!not even me ! To be honest this boy went through a lot, if you're good enough, you would have began to feel his pain, but most family secret needs to be kept a secret, what you're not suppose to know might kill you. It's better to keep a secret a secret.

"Hey yo lil man let me tell ya something

Listen never tell them your secret,

Your greatest fear and weakness will definitely be used against you

Trust get you killed when you least expect it,they all will switch against you;You're just a mere toy Jack ". He got up panting heavily covered up in sweats, what could this dream mean , so confused , all he saw was two blur figures, couldn't make out their face clearly , but over heard their speech , is this a vision , a memory, a prophecy or a warning ???

It's been over three years and now the young man is 15, staying with his parents in this sad place is quite a lame and shameful life . One night he looked around , the four corner of the rectangular brown wooden house in disappointment , the ceiling making some crackling noise and some dust falling out from it , he said to himself ,"even the farmers in the Far East doesn't live in this kind of place, well I don't even think Africans do stay in hut ,?" Suddenly He felt so cold and shivered as if crossed by a ghost , saw a white figure , a sad looking figure , he wanted to scream but lost his voice, it looked pale, white , like a human figure with no flesh but only the muscular part of the body with alien shaped head no eyes , the eyes had been scooped out

". Being sad is unfortunate, am left so fucking desperate, feeling pain is not at will , what a fucking miserable life someone find himself living , wishing everything would change so all my struggle will not be in vain" it said with a horrified voice like an echo and same time like two people talking at once

At this point , Jack little brother was terrified , horrified and was scared , It continued

"they won't let me live, they won't let me die,"

as It scratched it fore head and skull with it long finger nails , tearing it head apart, exposing its brain ,

Jack little brother lost it all, become dizzy at once , heart beat raised beyond control and thinking this was it , the end, "is this death ?? "he questioned as he fainted unconsciously.
