Oh where were we? Oh yea lets skip to when I was 10. I had decided to learn parkour to help me survive the streets, I've  gotten better now that I'm 16 but you know what ever. At the age of 11 the police caught me an put me into the orphanage. A place I hated the most, that is until I saw someone I knew from before.
"Hey? Sergio? I that really you?" Called a familiar voice
I turned around and realized it was Roger.
"Oh hey Roger. Yea it's me..." I said in a dull statement
The police then decided to ask Roger to take care of me. Roger agreed to do so and decided that I should be in the orphan but no family should adopt me. The police then talked with him for a few more minutes and left. I then ask Roger.
"You know don't you?"
"Know what?" He says, "just cause I'm your dad's best friend doesn't mean I know what you are...oh wait never mind" he laughs, " yes I do know why?"
"Then why do I have to stay here?" I say angered
," I wanna be alone I wanna die alone I don't want anyone to see me to see what I've become"
"Oh Sergio I wish I could tell you but wait until your 15 you will see"
He then showed me my room and I then went to sleep. Many months went by as I learned my new powers. I learned to shoot lightning bolts to turn my arrows into lightning bolts and to glide. My birthday is now here. Roger bought me a present. Inside was a new black hoodie and a hunting knife. I took both and put them on.
"Thanks Roger I really like it" I said cheerfully
"Your welcome."
I am now 11 I became better at parkour I learn to push things using lightning, my aim improve, but something bad has happened. It was a cold Sunday morning. I just woken up from a harsh nights rest, Roger gave me break feast and then said bye as I left the orphanage to go explore. I've decided that I wanted to learn some new skills and test a little bit more. I came back from a harsh day of training where I see the orphanage on fire. Fire burning as hot as my insides. Glowing a bright red, just like how my arms glow. I rushed inside to help and look for Roger. There I see Roger. On the ground dying.
"Sergio" he says while coughing, "when your 15 please go to the police and ask for code Spector you will then be shown the rest"
He then died In front of me. A few months later I'm now 12 and a half I discover all my powers and I'm better at parkour then I ever was. I've decided to not care for others and care for myself. I then found a note addressed to me, it said
Dear Sergio,
I will give you $5000 for killing a man. I know you need the money but I will give it to you. This man killed your dad and burned down the orphanage. When you decided to take this please meet me at the arcade. And ask for a Diet Coke.

Fire arose from my eyes as I read that note. My arm glow a darken red, darker then the blood of my next victim. I took the job and meet him at the arcade. He gave me a paper and on it had a picture of the guy, his name, and where to kill him at. His name was Coben, Coben Autumn He had a drinking issue and was a dead man to me. My job started tonight and so I slowly awaited to get ready for it. I had to kill him in the alley way he killed my dad. Oh how sweet revenge felt. That is until you had enough.
It was 11:pm and I saw the bar door flew open. Out walked Coben, the men who killed my dad. I was ready to strike but. I wasn't thinking, my powers glow and he spotted me. So I grabbed my knife and jumped on him. The knife then slowly pierced his neck, killing him in almost an instant. I look down to my bloody hands, they where pouring blood Coben's blood . I was scared I ran and didn't look back. I passed out on top of the arcade. I awaken to find $5000 and a note saying thank you. I slowly stare down at myself and decided on what I've become, I'm I'm a murderer now and I can't chance get that. I slowly walked away from the arcade and down onto my bath of evil.
And now I bring you to a year ago. I turned 15 and I decided that I should head to the police. The only thing was, I was a wanted man, an assassin sent to kill people. My lightning that glew from my arms where no longer blue, but a darken red. I followed down my faith and walked into the police office. Guns pointed at me I stopped and said.
"Code Spector please?"
The police then escorted  me into a plane and flew me away from home. To a place where people like me are from. To a place where people have powers too where I can kill others and make bad choices. To a place where I can forget my past and stare abound the future. They gave me a small apartment and a map they told me I to go to highschool but I didn't really pay attention to that. Now that I'm 15 I became better at what I am. My powers are stronger then ever and  Iv'e learn to control them. I felt no emotion... At all.  I had no friends,and  all I felt was hatred and that's all I was shown.
First day of the school year. I exit my apartment to see someone that's looked a bit...alone.
"Hello what's your name?" I ask as I approach him
"Oh hello my name is Frank, and yours?"
"My name is Sergio or Serg or Spector you know what call me what ever I don't care"
He laughs," well hello there Sergio"
He then showed me to the school. The school was flooded with people with powers I watch as people spawn fire and flew around. I stared at the school and read the name out loud.
