    Have you ever felt that you didn't belong? Perhaps you felt that you didn't fit in with a group or even your own family. That has essentially been my whole life's situation. 
                                                             

    I was raised with a group of people who didn't belong, freaks if you will, and even while growing with these people, I was still an outcast. Although all of these people were different from most of the world, I was, I am, on a completely different level.                                                                                             


    I have only felt like I've belonged once in my life, it was for a short time and I was only a small child but it was real.                                                    

             
 

  Anyway, the scientists or "white coats" as most of us call them, created all the freaks here at the "School" well, all except me. I'm what you would call a natural born freak. Everyone here at the school basically come out of a test tube, with the exception of me, most have altered DNA and some of the earlier "test subjects" were spliced with different animals, and all of us have powers.        
                                                                     

    What makes me so different? Well, let us start with the fact that I'm not even human, I was not born of Earth, I'm from Tamaran to be exact. I crash landed in the middle of the school when I was about a week old (seven days, ten hours, and three minutes, if you want an exact number). The reason I remember would be due to me having a photographic memory. To give you the primary layout of what happened; My mother (Koriand'r), was trying to protect me so she sent me to Earth in an escape pod, which malfunctioned and changed course, causing me to land in the wonderful place I live in today (notice the sarcasm).                                                                                     

    As soon as the white coats realized I wasn't of Earth, they were ecstatic. They were thrilled to be able to experiment on not only an "alien" but an alien that already had powers and wings (yes, wings) the white coats have somewhat of an obsession with putting wings on their experiments.
                                                                       

    Oh, and just so you know my name is Aiden Halo or as the white coats labeled me; experiment 1129514, which if you put into the numeric-alphabet code, it spells out "Alien", I wonder what genius came up with that one. I am fifteen years old but due to my aging process I look as if I am eighteen. My height is 5'7 and my weight is one hundred pounds.
                                                                      

    Now about my powers, I have many but here are a few; as I mentioned earlier, I have wings which I can change to various sizes (I've never been able to see how big they can become but the farthest they have reached is fifteen feet per wing). I can control fire, create fire, become engulfed in flames, and more fire related powers. I have superhuman strength, language simulation(by lip to lip contact), energy projection, enhanced senses, etc.                                                                                                       

    Most of my life has been a series of experiments, DNA alterations, tests, "training", and torture. Supposedly this is all to prepare me, you see, apparently I am supposed to be a powerful weapon, something that can "destroy the world" (or so I am told). Trust me, I'm not looking for pity or anyone to think I am sad, I know that I never have and never will belong any where and as far as I'm concerned, I'm just another freak.

   








So here's the first chapter! Hopefully it's not to short. Oh, well I'm just proud of myself for putting something up. Anyway, hope you liked it and thanks for reading.
