• It all began on a windy night, the sky was black without a moon and the air was thick and still. A women notices a crate swept from the sea, onto the shore of her land. A steady wail comes from the crate. The woman crept up to the crate wondering what made the scream. When she got to the wood bound crate, she touched the lid and thought before she lifted it, what is in it, and is it dangerous? Then she thought could it be as dangerous as what she imagined or if she was over reacting her thoughts. So over her fears she took a deep breath and lifted the heavy dark brown lid, and there lay a miniscule baby, with engaging blue eyes and dark brown hair, starring at the woman. She looked at the baby with a sparkle of light in her eye, she thought that since she wanted a baby and John, her husband, wanted to also, but had a disease and didn't want to pass it on to his wife now they can have one. She took the baby out from the dark brown box and into her soft, skinny arms. She then sang a lullaby to quiet the baby to sleep. When the baby drifted to sleep she looked at him with love and snuck into the house and explained to John about her idea.

    Sixteen years later the baby grew to a great young adult known as Aaron, he was a strait A student, very athletic, strong and he was very dedicated in everything he did and not only that, but he was popular. He had every girl wanting him except for Rose. Rose wasn't just perfect, she was beyond it, beautiful, smart, athletic, and more, it may sound weird but he dreamt about her. He has never had a girlfriend because she's the only one he wanted. He basically had a normal kids life but all that was about to change. It was October 31 and he was excited about his birthday party, all his friends would be there including his best friend Eric A. Hall. Eric was Aaron’s friend ever since he beat up a kid for making fun of him in junior high. He just got done with learning, playing, and dreaming about Rose so now he was going home for the day thinking about the party. On his two mile jog home he noticed his hands started glowing. He stared at his hands for a while wondering if his eyes were playing tricks on him. When all of a sudden a man with old skin walked out of an alley, “hey kid, put this on” the man ordered tossing him some gloves as black as night. As Aaron slipped on the gloves he couldn’t help but wonder what was going on. But before he could ask, the man was gone. He was alone and confused. He started strolling wondering what was going on he had so many questions. A couple miles later he reached the door of his house, when the same man walked out of the bushes. Startled, Aaron starred at the man in awe "who are you?" he asked still staring in awe. "I am George Ilof" he said grinning at Aaron. "I've been observing you for a while now, watching you grow day by day" he continued. Aaron stared at him now confused, "what do you want" he asked. "I would like to teach you" the man said.

    "Listen sorry mister but i'm not your guy, i'm just a normal kid", "I understand but even if you don't take my teaching your life will never be the same again". "Sorry I have to go" he said as he ran inside and turned the corner. "SUPRISE" friends and family shouted, It was amazing everyone was there including his closest friends, even his uncle came all the way from Iraq to celebrate his nephews birthday. "Wow thanks everyone" he said with great enthusiasm. After he had thanked everyone there was a knock at the door. "Who could that be, we didn't invite anyone else" Aaron's mom said as he opened the door. When he opened the door he was awestruck, the girl he had been dreaming about was standing at the door, Rose. "Hey Aaron, happy birthday" she said gazing into his soul with her saphire eyes. "Thanks, but how did you know my birthday was today" he asked. "I have my sources" she answered with a grin on her face. "Ummm.... can I talk to you" she asked looking as if she remembered something. "Ya, lets go outside to talk" he said as they walked out the door and closed it behind them. "Whats up" he asked, "A old man walked up to you today didn't he" she asked. Aaron looked at her awestruck once again "How did you know that?" he asked amazed knowing he was alone. "Sorry Aaron I can't tell you that, but i can tell you that you are in danger and you must take his teaching" she said with a worried look on her face. "But how do you know......", "sorry Aaron I have got to go"she said as she got up and walked away. As he watched her walk away he wondered what was going on. When he looked at his side there was a box, Aaron stared at it for a while and picked it up.

    The box was small and had a small word written on it, Silver. He opened it and there lay a jacket that said Silver on it on the jacket there was a sign on the front that looked like a upside down triangle with lines coming out all the flat surfaces of the triangle. He picked it up and there lay a miniscule note that read...

    Dear Aaron, I know you don't understand everything right now but believe me when I say you
    are in danger. Everything you know is a lie, so let me clear it up a little. Your parents
    aren't your real parents, Rose is not who you think she is, George Ilof is your tutor, and
    I am your real father. Tommorrow, Ilof will show up agree to be tutored and find out more.

    He looked up from the note and wondered he put it in the box and went inside where he was met by Eric. "Who was that?" he asked curiously. "It was just Rose" he replied. "What did she want!" he demanded, "She just gave me a jacket for my birthday" he said. Eric nodded his head and walked away, what was that about Aaron wondered. Throughout the night he wondered what was going on. When everyone left he went to sleep and had a dream of a man who was tall with dark hair in a suit, his hands were like his earlier. "Hello Aaron, you do not know me but I know you", "who are you?" he asked. "I am your guardian or as you now me your father" he replied as he woke up slowly to his alarm ringing. Inside his head he thought time for school and training.

    After he got ready he walked out the door and locked it. "Can I walk with you?" a light voice asked, right then Aaron turned around and found it was Rose. "Sure you can" he said with a joyful smile on his face.
    "Before we go to school, I was ordered to bring you to George Ilof for training instructions" she said with a serious face. "Before that tell me who you are really?" he asked, she looked at him with a grin "I'll make you a deal, if you go through training everyday I will tell you more". He nodded his head and continued walking taking off his gloves showing his hands the glow was gone. A couple of miles later there was a mysterious rustling in the bushes. Rose took action and put Aaron behind her and pulled out her blade positioned to strike. "Who's there, show yourself"! she demanded. Eric snuck out of the bushes, "hello Rose" he laughed and continued "are you his protector" he chuckled. "That's none of your buisness" she yelled, puttin her blade across his neck. "You wouldn't kill Aaron's best friend right in front of his eyes" he chuckled, "watch me" she said as she sliced his throat. He choked and gargled as black goop released from his throat and lifted his head, as Aaron watched his best friend bleed he noticed his body changed it looked like a dark misty figure with yellow eyes as stunning as the sun. "Did you forget you can't kill me with that blade" he laughed as he grabbed her by the neck a squeezed she choked and struggled. "Leave her alone Eric come get me!" he shouted as his hands started to glow brightly, Eric threw Rose to the ground and grinned at Aaron. "Run Aaron" Rose screamed after she got done catching her breath. Aaron turned and ran as fast as possible he looked back and noticed the being chased by the misty form. After running for a couple of miles he came to a city and ran down a alley but it was no use it had been a dead end. Aaron looked back and saw Eric change back and stroll towards him with a grin on his face. "You have no idea what is going on or who you are do you"? he said slyly just then Rose came out of nowhere and kicked Eric to the ground and screamed "Ilof now". Just then a mist hit Aaron and he couldn't breath, he couldn't move.

    As the mist cleared he noticed he could breathe, he could move. He arrived in a dark room he looked at the room he saw bookshelves full of books, he turned around and noticed a wall of pictures the pictures were of kids he noticed all of them had gloves on and the jacket he recieved but different signs and names. he looked up and saw a plaque saying "team revilis" he turned around and saw weapons swords, bows, arrows, and shields he looked at the swords of steel and grabbed the handle. "Careful Aaron, those can be dangerous" a voice said as a hand grabbed his shoulder. Aaron jumped around startled not knowing who had hold of him. There stood George Ilof with a smile on his face, "do you remember anything" he asked. "Yes, I remember Eric was this thing and he tryed to get me and Rose ........ ROSE! is she okay, where is she", "Rose is fine Aaron she had scars from battle but is being healed as we speak" he chuckled. "Can I see her I have to make sure she's okay", "easy Aaron she is sleep healing, in fact you should get some sleep you have a big day tommorow" he said, then he showed him his room preparing for the day tomorrow it would be a big day his first day of training. The next morning Aaron woke up to see Rose peeking in his room "Rose are you okay is everything alright" he asked with hope "Aaron calm down im fine" she said with a giggle. as she turned her head she had a scar across her cheek and under the chin. "What happened Rose" he asked "oh this scar" asked as Aaron stared in awe. "It's from me helping fight the darkness", "darkness" he asked curiously as she replied "oh sorry as I fought Eric" Aaron was confused as ever. Could his best friend be his enemy and his crush a savior and what about my hands glowing he thought with confusion.
