(Angel's P.O.V.)
Have you ever seen something out of the corner of your eye? Just to turn around and find out that there was nothing there. Or perhaps you wake up in the middle of the night, feeling the stare of someone burning into you, but turn around to see nothing but darkness. Some people brush it off and think nothing of it, but they are so wrong. The reason for these two things is simple. There are monsters from times long gone and their master, once flesh and bone, was reduced to nothing more than just a bad dream. These monsters were once like you and I, but went through pain no man should endure and were changed. People of times passed had a name for them. The σκιά άνθρωποι (A/N it's pronounced skiá ánthropoi), which, in greek, means shadow people.
Centuries ago they were controlled by a man named John shadowheart, who later (thanks to the people who feared him) took the name boogeyman. Don't ask, they probably thought it was scary back then or something. There was an untold legend that was behind the madness of John, and it was amazing. Or at least I thought so. He was the ordinary town nerd he was fascinated on how the greeks thought about how the earth came to be. he got picked on a lot as a kid, and that led him to be dependent on no-one but himself. I guess that it doesn't help that the poor lad was an orphan. His parents died in an accident involving a pig, a knife, and a thief/murderer. Put 2 and 2 together.
Anyways, he was always looking for the abnormal and the strange,and here's why. John had powers. He could generate and manipulate the shadows to his will. He could also create objects from his shadows. John discovered his powers at the early age of 16. By the time he reached 20 he mastered his powers and felt at home with the darkness.
But then came a small anomaly in his life. A very bright one. Not figuratively but literally. Her name was Anna luz. She was just like john in the sense that she too had powers, but unlike john, she had control of light. John grew fond of the girl and they got together one day and she was pregnant.they had there kid and he grew up with a life of having both parents. Except when john saw something that no one else did. A man came in and stole the kid. HIS kid. He tried to fight him off using his powers but the kidnapper had the same ones and he was stronger. he followed him out to the forest where he thought he killed his kid. he was wrong but we'll get back to that. he killed the man while he was off guard but he thought it was too late.
To get revenge for his kid he went around kidnapping other children. parents warned kids about him but then he got reduced to nothing more than just a bad story. but it's all true I tell you. how do I know? cause I'm his kid. I am Angel Alok Shadowheart. Successor to John Blake Shadowheart.
