THE GREAT MAGE

THE BEGINNING

My name is Alexander Robert, the son of Robert Patrick who is mage but died from not able to train properly. My father was very rich but after he died all his property was taken by other family members except for a house which me, my brother and my mother is living in. My father also left some of his training objects that he uses to become a mage which is still with me up till date. I had the dream of becoming the greatest mage to protect my mother and my brother.

The children of the town were not nice to me, they often bullied me most especially a boy who is just a year older than me called Richard Edward. Richard also has a gang which is called the "black dragon" , they had four other members including Richard as their leader.They loved to bully other children who has some challenges or the other.

**
On an occasion I was walking down the street when Richard started calling me names, I did not mind him and continued going to where I was going when he said,
"Hey Bastard, where do you think you are going, hphm you are just like your father, a useless man who is better he was even dead".

I was at my limit and I replied,
"What did you just say?"

He replied confidently,
"I said your father is a bastard and a useless man and your mother is a bitch who is looking for money to feed you and your brother everywhere, but wait, how dare you make me repeat myself you son of a bi..."

He was about to complete his sentence when I punched him at my full strength which made him fell down and spat out blood. I was about to punch the second time when his gang suddenly showed up and continued to hit me until they were tired, the people of the neighborhood never tried to help me because of the fear that the black dragon gang may do to them.

I walked back home with a bloody lip and bruises, I had just finished school with no job. My mom is still in work and my brother was still at school, I went inside the house and began to cry before a thought came to my mind to become stronger and show those who bullied me who's the real deal. I began to do exercise so that I can become stronger and join the mage academy and become a mage like in my dreams.

I began to do push ups, sit ups, crunches and squats until my body became sore, I did not give up and took my sore body before removing my clothes and hitting all the part of my body which brought pain to every part of my body before then taking a bath and wore new set of clothes and took my phone to register for the mage academy online and the first part of the examination would begin two days later.
