Chapter 1:
There was once a lonely teenage boy, Reese, never seeking any attention or expose himself to the public, he lives a short journey away from school, he arrives to school alone, very early in the morning... Everyday with the same expression, either a big frown of despair, or an empty expression. He also never bothered to look for anything to cheer himself up, it seems like, possibly nothing can make him satisfied or happy at all. He was brought up in a rich family, very serious parents and also, he was the only child. He was separated from society because he was the only one who had no friends but only a computer for research. As most people say, sad people with beliefs are very close to God, but he chose to ignore it and keep all of his problems to himself, with a hope of not making others sad with his story. He did try to approach other students in school, but when his parents found out that he was in a big group, they shifted school almost immediately, a very weird way to treat a child. Bullies dare not approach him as he is also well built, in his memories of his childhood, lies a bad memory, where he fought back with his class idiots who don't want to study. He also made a mistake of sitting at the back row of his class. He still sits at the back row of his class, but this time, he is separated from other students, developed a feeling that no one can be trusted or even worth enough to talk to. Blinded by these assumptions, he never did spoke to anyone besides his teachers. The only brainiac, yet built with his own thinking and a few martial arts all together, he manipulated them to be lethal, it was so lethal, that he killed an aggressive bully which challenged him to a fight after school, with a swift pierce at the bully's neck, he he pressed hard at the bone sections and ripped his throat off, it left him sprawling onto the floor and choking because his respiratory system has been cut off, his parents lectured him for a short while at home and they had to bribe the headmaster of the school to not report it, the dead body was quickly disposed off. The witnesses themselves are too frightened to even talk or ask him anything.But as he moved on to secondary school, its a little different, people are more matured and sociable, they don't really mind if they are "weird" or not, they just need to find friends to fit themselves nicely into the school. Eventually the bullying culture builds up along with that really quickly, most of them were taken to the next level, as a huge gang, threatening the students in the school, but they still had respect to those students who already had a couple (a GF BF thing), they were left alone peacefully, but as for most of them, were disturbed, especially the ones that they don't really like their appearance. This is where we say, don't judge a book by its cover, and just because some people are different, doesn't mean they deserve to be treated that way. Back to the story... he was still one of the top scorers in the school, but the most silent. he even evolved his lethal methods of killing, as that is the only thing he talks to in his mind, very quietly, even his parents are not aware of his thinking, he limits his socializing because of his thoughts of meeting dangerous people or backstabbers, that strong perception has always been his only thought about society, his combination of thinking was almost perfect academically n physically, but he plays as a lone wolf only, teamwork was never part of him because his skills are of the most advanced compared to everyone in the school.
But one day, while recess, he was alone at the school hall, his "recess" has always been some physical activity, and he had access to every single part of the school. A new student came on that day, registered an is also in his class, almost as lonely as him, but doesn't have his excelling skills academically and physically. He didn't know about Reese at all. He approached him and asked for directions to the canteen and the teacher's office, Reese kept quiet while playing basketball. The new student himself has limitless patience, for a week continuously, he asked Reese about the same thing, the weird part is, he did not even ask anyone else in his class. Eventually Reese started talking, that was his 3rd conversation he had in the school. They walked around and the new student finally introduced himself as Dave. They became friends after a few months, usually it takes shorter, but its hard to get Reese to talk because of his loneliness in life until now, it wasn't a test for him at all. They started sharing knowledge with each other in class, Dave tried to convince Reese about the community in school not being as his assumption is, it took him a while to explain it to Reese. But he still commonly mixes with the school teachers. In a few weeks time, Reese started to introduce himself to his class and he found that his particular class itself has many different types of people, almost of all categories. But he still refused if any other student asked for help from him in his studies. And this time, he had his type of crowd again, he never felt any better ever since his parents separated him from his group of friends on an early age. They started out with group activities and assignment collaborations since most of them have the "first time" experience in secondary school assignments, Reese started helping each of them, David eventually caught up with Reese's academic studies and excelled with him. It's hard to say anything about Reese, his facial expressions only changed a little, a small smile to his expression only. Still, his face indicates nothing at all, emotionless. He took up Karate and Taekwando, both at different places, one is at school, and the other one is private training. he got to the highest rank and started to train further and improvise all by himself. Sparring has always been fun for him, victims not too big or too small to defeat, he always gets his way. Finally, when its time for his co-curricular activities, he was the most aggressive and skilled, still very unpredictable at times.
Even if he was that good, but he didn't represent the school in any activity at all, that was part of his idea of keeping a low profile. He was good at what he does best, but he keeps a very low profile, and lucky for him, his school's code of attire is casual and freestyle. He always came with a hooded jacket, he hadn't any other colour other than black and white, with either jeans or cargo pants. He decides most of his clothes depending on his movement flexibility for self defence when needed. As the school days pass by, he grew more fond of the society and actually found another person very intriguing to him, bullies knew his reputation as a primary school killer in one hit, which makes him the balance between the students, hes the toughest shield in his school, and also the most lethal. The bullying activity only happens outside the schools, which he considers none of his problem. Only difference which separates him from his school community is, he hardly uses social websites such as facebook, myspace or friendster. He still trains and does things mostly by himself. He actually grew fonder of the girl next to his class. He only had one problem, never talked to any person which he had a special feeling towards before, but to him, it only took a day of thinking before he approached her. Her name was Rachel, he didn't say much to her after introducing himself, he just asked about school work and how was it going. He then kept quiet for a short while in his class. When he went home, his parents also questioned him about school studies, it was particularly too easy for him. He went to his room, but he first searched for the girl's profile in the social websites before doing his further researches on his other studies. He forgot to ask her 1 thing, her e-mail. so he couldn't do anything, so he continued on with his daily activities until the next day began again. He did his usual activity early in the morning, walking around the dark corners of the school and passing by the empty classes, science laboratories and the teachers' office, only this time he wore a white hoodie with him.
He also went to the school gym for a short morning exercise since he came quite early and he's the only one with full access to the whole school surroundings because of his parents. Later when the sky turned blue, the teachers started to fill the office, so he went back to the canteen n waited until the assembly starts as usual every morning. He studied in class as usual, but this time he started to walk around the block, but his quick actions and reactions allowed him to escape the discipline and patrol teachers around all of the blocks, but most of the students will get caught while walking at the corridor while their classes are without teachers. But that doesn't stop the students from walking in and out of their classes to see their friends on the next class. It's mostly part of society in school between students. As some say, some rules are meant to be broken. Later when it was recess time, he walked off to her class slowly, they both met and walked together with their group of friends to the canteen, the group eventually split up into a few smaller groups and started to scatter around the school compound, mostly the canteen. Reese the left her to join her other friends, he takes his usual walk around the school, but Dave was tailing him from behind which later they started talking about the activities the school was offering for the students on co-curricular activities. It made a clear sense that his friend hasn't chosen any of it yet, so he told his friend to ask the teacher for help recommend any suitable ones for him. Dave left for the teacher's office in a short while, Reese was left walking alone again but only this time he was walking around the school garden decorated by the students as a charity job for the school. As the recess bell rang again, the sign that all of the students are supposed to be back in class, he walked slowly upstairs.. only this time, his head is shrouded with thoughts of people whom he can and cannot trust, and people whom he loved and avoided. That didn't stop him on walking around the class corridors evading the teachers. He went back into his classroom, chatted with his classmates for a short while and then settled down with a story book from the library, accompanied by his MP3 and his songs, he read quietly until the next teacher comes in, but just that day, almost for the whole day, no teacher has ever came into his class at all, so he managed to go through a quarter of the storybook before going back again. His school ended, at 1.55pm, his butler came and escorted him to his limousine, and he went home. He thought that is how he was supposed to be treated since he is part of the royal family, his Grandfather as an Ex-Pat (Ex Patriot) of his country. He's the only one with his grandfather's fighting spirit, agility and strength. He has much more to learn than his grandfather. But he didn't follow his grandfather's steps to become part of the army, he applied for early college scholarship to monitor his results and success along the way. As he reached home, he went for a swim at the pool behind his house, the size of it was quite alike the public swimming pool, he took 1 hour for swimming before getting out of the pool to have a sip on some fresh orange juice. Later he called up his parents and had a chat about their daily work and ended the call with a family kiss through the phone. Later he called Dave over for a short training at his archery range behind his house, it was Dave's first time over at such a huge residence, so he took his time to admire the whole place, it was also his first time doing archery, so Reese had to teach him the basics, they all went for a 50-arrow round and Reese scored the most bullseye s and later Reese made some juice for Dave by himself, Dave started talking " It must have been lonely to have such a big place but not many people to enjoy it with you, i envy your skills on sports but it feels that one part of you is still missing" Reese replied "There are many parts of me missing, i just need to take my time searching for them since school studied now are getting a little too easy for me and you at the same time, since i was the one who taught you the shortcuts and showed you the steps." Reese said "well, i'll have to thank you for that, but you should really get along with the public society outside, you have a big mansion, but you are lonely most of the time, and i reckon that your parents don't really like you to mix with the many influences there is in school". "Yep, you read what i was gonna say, well, you do know me well, since we've been friends for some time now, up for some martial arts?" "Erm, well, no, im more like the computer freak type, so, got anything interesting here?" "Well, not much of me is into technology and stuff like that, i'd prefer to go out and see it myself rather than play it on a console, where IS the life in playing on screen anyway.. people don't know you and that goes the same with you, if u are interested in shooting, we can go down to my armory in my basement firing range" "yeah, sure, first tine experience with the guns, hope it feels nice"... Reese took Dave down to his shooting range and they tested the sub-machine guns first, since they have the lowest recoil, Reese was very flexible with any gun, but his favourite gun are of the "bullpup" concept, just like the TAR-21 and the AUG-A3, as for hid buddy, Dave, he preferred the MP7A1 and the MP5A3 because of the low recoil, but it was quite painful for Dave's shoulders since it was his first time experience shooting a gun.
After they were done testing all of the weapons, they both went for a swim. At that time, Reese's father was back, and Reese was surprised to see that his father actually welcomed him and greeted him without getting angry at him for showing him around the mansion, his father sure does know how to rate and pick friends around him. Reese warned Dave not to tell anything about his mansion of his location, it would attract a lot of unwanted guests like the students who are chasing money constantly. They both enjoyed their time even if there was only one of his friend who came to his house, He drove Dave home for the night, it was 11pm when they were done enjoying themselves. A second thought came into his mind, what about the person he loved, why didn't he call her over? He planned to do that later when the time was right. Later when he went to bed and on the next morning, as the usual, going to school early for some exercise in the gym, he doesn't really favor working out with people around him, he prefers to be alone doing that maybe because he doesn't really like the crowd early in the morning, not the "party" time yet. This time he called Dave early to school for a short discussion on the school projects and drew a new plan on the school design improvements, contemporary and comfortable, probably another charity design of both of theirs for the public schools, good thing is he had approvals from the government to do this. Their designs were mostly appreciated my the teachers and students because of their designing efforts and creativity, both Dave and Reese got the credit for doing that, and at that time, the newer school block was almost complete, a new design specially by Reese and Dave. Later as the usual recess bell rang, he headed for Rachel's class, he went of talking with her until they reached the canteen, but this time Reese was more open, and asked her to accompany him for recess and he wants to have a chat with her about the school work too. They talked a lot and enjoyed themselves, Dave walked past and felt happy that Reese was no longer alone like a broken toy in the corner of a house. He finally found someone he admired, and loved a lot. Dave went back to class first with an intention of not wanting to disturb the love birds talking. After recess was over, Rachel and Reese both thanked each other for their accompanies during recess time, Reese felt loved and really happy for the first time. The only first time in school. They all continued their day with class work, they even had some spare time to talk to each other at their class corridor. As school was over, they both went home to their own houses, this time, Reese changed his schedule a little, taking a short drive around town, get a cup of iced caramel coffee n go home. After he reached home and parked his McLaren MP4-12 Concept model. That car had very limited units which made the price skyrocket, but his parents seem to have the money to pay for it. He took a walk around his mansion, it was very big, bigger than the car convention he went to in the previous year. Later he went to check on his homework... it was all finished because his class bought him some time to finish all of them. He felt bored and dozed off on the whole afternoon after school. He woke up at about 6.00pm, and he went for a long jog around his mansion, he took his time to jog all the way from his front door, to around his whole house in a few hours. Later he took a short time to rest and joined his father at the archery range. They both scored the same, 90% bullseye hits, he then sat down by the swimming pool while sipping a glass of orange juice with his father. He talked about his school activities and the changes that he actually expected, his father replied once about the activities, "The school is filled with students of various attitudes, unknown whether positive or negative, so i think it's better not to improve the school too much as some unexpected students may wreck it and all of it goes to waste", Reese accepted it as it is, he knows whatever his father said was very true, others' intentions are hard to figure out, especially with his history of murdering the head of the school bully, the story was quickly covered up because his parents took careful precautions and ways to prevent it from spreading. His parents took action almost immediately that the neighborhood around the school did not get to know what actually happened.
Chapter 2:
The school bell goes once again when it struck 2:10pm, Dave and Reese walked down the hallway once the students have cleared out from the whole place. However, as Reese and Dave separated, Dave was suddenly surrounded by a huge group of students of unfamiliar students, probably new students. Dave immediately recognized them as the lower graders who formed a gang in his primary school, finally ending up at his school. They started to disturb Dave and then started a big argument, it got ugly in a few minutes later. Reese turned back to see the small commotion that was happening. His arms and legs itched for some action seeing the students surrounding Dave. He placed his black hood over his head and drew out a silver metallic mask with the old classic opera "happy" emotion imprinted onto it. He also took his time putting on the gloves he bought and toughened with some small pieces of stainless steel plates behind the leather lining. Usually he would only use that appearance while in public open combat, and the silver mask gave him the public reputation he had once he was on the streets with his mask on, also reminds the students who did the murdering in primary school. Only these new students who came into the school as one of the infamous gangs didn't know who he really is. The students started to grab hold of Dave from the back and started to pummel him. Before the students landed the second punch into his stomach, Reese was already running on the side of the hall, did a long jump and threw a midair backhand onto the back of the student's head. The student's face flew into the wall really quickly immediately causing him to bleed badly and fainting because of the quick and hard blow onto the back of his head. Luckily Dave dodged before the student hit the wall really hard. The student's gang members were very shocked to see Reese suddenly popping into the fight knocking one down easily without any effort at all, and most of all, with one of the most happiest expression on his shining mask. Dave quickly ran to the front door of the hallway, turning back to give a short gaze at the stranger who helped him. Reese continued with a roundhouse kick to the face and knocked a few of the students back, flying a few inches away in the air with some blood graffiti work on the floor of the hallway. Reese stared back at the remaining students with his "happy" mask, it tore down into their heads immediately like thunder, fear shrouded almost all of their heads. Most of the students ran away, leaving only 2 students too shaken to move a muscle. Reese was very surprised that Dave stayed to watch the fight. The last two students threw a punch at Reese, one missed the target, Reese gave the other student a medium-force storm kick into the stomach, he flew a few meters away. The second student threw a hook punch towards him, Reese bent a little lover and did a cross punch into the stomach and ended it with a side kick onto the student's face, right onto the side of the wall, only faster than the previous backhand. The student was bleeding even more, the wall was easily smeared with blood, suddenly, the principle's office door opened, the principle came out. The first thing that caught his eyes were the silver smiling mask, looks a little sinister with the bleeding students at the hallway. The principle quickly ran for the back door into the car park. Reese walked to the front door and dragged Dave along into his Carerra GT Spyder. He then removed the mask when he started making his way home. Dave was very surprised at Reese, including the blood that smeared onto his hoodie. Dave also thanked Reese for saving his butt in that fight. But he still demanded to know the answers to his questions. Reese told him that he will only find out the answer when he reaches his house. They both kept quiet until they reached Reese's mansion. Reese led Dave into his room and started talking, "I enjoy doing this job, its fun, but i don't get too carried away with it, and by the way, who were those people and why'd they target you? They're quite weak in the mind though, they actually can't do much", Dave kept quiet for a moment and thought that, it was his friend's secret, to keep, permanently, only time will tell. in a few minutes later, Dave answered " They're just primary school friends, which turned bad, i think, i don't even know much about them actually, i only know them as brainless people who do things which they feel its right, for the fun of it." ... After a few minutes later, Reese led his friend into his dojo, below his room. They both greeted the instructor there,Reese has a higher rank, so he gets most of the respect there. Reese then asked the instructor to teach Dave a few of the basic moves he needs to know. Reese then went his shooting range to train on his aiming. Later, he went to take a book from his shelf to read by his swimming pool. When Dave was done with the basics, he tried to find his way back to Reese, while walking, he accidentally tipped over a vase, luckily it didn't fall to the ground, but it was quite weird that the vase was still stuck solid onto the holder. Then a small passageway opened to the swimming pool, and that is where Dave found Reese. "Getting used to using these small roads aye?" said Reese, Dave replied "yeah, accidentally found it" . "So i think you are able to defend yourself from now aye?" Reese said, Dave nodded his head slowly. Reese then drove him home and continued on with driving around the highway. He went about 200 MPH on the highway and still going higher. He then took a short drive back home.
