My name is Crossfire, or at least thats what I call myself. Now you may be wondering....Crossfire, what kind of name is that? Well its not my real name, my real name is Garret, Garret Shade. I am an expert at long range weapons, or at least I call myself an expert. I wasn't always like this, I started out as a lone boy in an orphanage, I have never met my parents and its seems that even the people at the orphanage know very little of them as well. The only thing I do know is that I was brought to the orphanage when I was a month old. I have been told that I was left on the doorstep wrapped in a blanket, I had no name and nothing to even remember my parents or where I came from. So what does that make me? Just another orphan boy, alone and unwanted. But this is not how I want my life to be.
I wanted a choice, another way, not to be locked up in this prison for children, this.....orphanage. What use could me, a thin black haired child so weak that I couldn't even defend myself against the common bullies of everyday life in the orphanage, be to anyone? Well my life was about to change, I was going to be important, I dont know how but I do know that I wanted to be and I was going to make sure I became important. I know these things don't just happen alone so I was going to have to find away to get stronger and to make sure someone got me who could make me important.
