Sun was rising illuminating Marley that day, there were few people already making it to the markets before the food ran out. It was always lively back then, kids running around, food stalls were placed all around, and everyone conversing.

I always loved being out on the streets it was always better than home...

Walking back home was the worst knowing that my old man is probably yelling at my mother again. Every day It'd be the same thing father hurting me and my mother, the urge to want to punch him in the face

Sometimes I would wish him death...

A month passed and the police reported to my mother that her husband was found dead. I was listening from afar and a smirk was plastered on my face

I wonder who did it, huh?

(Play song)

Looking out the window I started laughing lowly with a knife in hand.

"The sun is already setting" I said to myself, I stood up from the chair and put the knife in its knife guard

Walking into the living room I saw my wife placing 4 plates of food on the table. B/n was seated on the floor playing with a wooden titan.

The door creaked after a few moments and Y/n walked in with a pie in hand

"I'm back" He spoke while walking to the table

Y/n Pov-

I saw the tall figure looking right at me with those crimson eyes. Chills ran down my spine, it was always chilling when he would look at me like that.

I sat at the table watching as my mother was bringing the pie I just brought

"Come on have a seat" She called

My brother and father sat down, I was on one side while my father was on the other. It was always like this, a quiet dinner. No one said a word but this time my mom did.

"Y/n, you look just like your father for some reason. Considering you and B/n are twins." She said looking between us

"I do have agree, its like looking at my younger self" My father added

We all finished our dinner and the day came to an end as I walked to the room B/n went in front of me

"Do you really look like father?" He asked "I don't know do I? They did say I do". I looked at the window beside us and saw my reflection.

That thought always stuck with me.

~1 year later~ (Both Y/n and B/n are 8 here)

I was reading an old book that was in the shelves, it talked all about the people in paradise island. It was fascinating how an island full of titans they are just living fine.

It then started talking about many kids running and having fun...there was a sketch of them smiling on the left side of the book.

I slowly realized that I've never felt strong emotions, I only know each one but never felt it

Lost in thought I didn't even hear footsteps coming closer or the door open until I felt someone staring from behind.

I looked up from the book and turned around. Only the tall figure was there as if he was in the shadows, only his red eyes seemed like it glowed. I felt my heart rate increase then an uneasy feeling came upon me.

"Sorry son for giving you a scare" He looked at me and giving me an innocent smile

I didn't even show a sign of being scared.

"It's alright, I was just reading this book I found on the shelf" I said showing him the cover

He squinted his eyes a bit to read the title, he then walked to the side of the bed where I was seated. Then proceeded to sit beside me

"I see it's a book about paradise island...interesting pick"

"Yea...uh father how come I've never felt any emotions like B/n" I looked at the sketch and spoke once more

"Is there something wrong with me?"

"Don't worry Y/n I felt like that back then but look at me now there isn't anything wrong" He replied with the same innocent smile
