It was a cloudy night, the darkness covered the city like a thick blanket. The wind blew gusts of air smelling of car fumes through the streets. It sneaked under the cracks of doors & whispered down sooty chimneys.
Cyrus Goodman, the 13 year old 7th grader who had raven hair, & chocolate brown eyes & a tanned skin color, sat on the front of his wooden porch, gazing out into the night sky, laying lost in all the city lights. It was his first day here & he knew nobody, he also didn't want to speak to nobody after the tragic death of his mother back in his hometown Scranton,Pennsylvania. Her & Cyrus shared an unbelievable secret, which if anyone found out about they would be screwed, Cyrus's mother was a remarkable woman, she was born with an unknown piece of DNA which made her have all these super powers which gave her the ability to control fire & water & make it blast out of her hands, have the power of telekinesis & the ability to fly. As a child, she would hide her powers as she knew it wasn't normal, not even her parents knew because she would never show what she could do in front of them. She was born in Park City,Utah & stayed there until she met my father, who was her husband for a certain amount of time before she left. When she was pregnant with Cyrus, her secret was exposed after she was caught setting fire to a tall oak tree in nearby woods after building up so many angry emotions. A woman caught her doing this, & unfortunately she could only do one thing to make her secret remain a secret. She had to kill this woman who knew, almost immediately after, there was a police case on what happened to the mysterious disappearance of the woman named, Scarlett Harris. Police where becoming more & more suspicious of her as time went on, so it was only right that she had to fly to another state far far away from Utah, she believed that Scranton,PA was the best option since it was a lovely city & an amazing place to bring up her child who she named Cyrus. 13 years after Cyrus's birth, people started to become more aware of who she really was though, people got scared after learning the old horrific case in Utah & knowing that Cyrus's mother was from the exact same city in Utah where the tragic loss of Mrs. Harris took place, they grew suspicious, but mostly scared. One man, Peter Longley, eventually lost his mind out of fear eating up his brain, & killed her.
After the loss of Cyrus's mother, he had no option but to go live with his father in Utah, which he didn't want to do, Cyrus's father was trying to find Cyrus for years & years but Cyrus's mother took off so quickly she never said where she was going, she also changed her identity from Tracy Verity to Hannah Goodman, to avoid Cyrus's father from ever finding out where she was through social media. Which she usually kept private. Cyrus knew his father existed, but his mother stopped him from seeing him due to the risk of being blown, Cyrus knew about his powers, all of the DNA was passed onto Cyrus so he had it all.
Cyrus heard a creaking noise from behind him. "Hey bud, it's time to go to sleep, it's been a long day." Cyrus's father said, in a sad voice. Cyrus got up & went to his new bedroom & fell into a long sleep, dreaming away. Thinking what his first day of school will be like tomorrow.
