Rise of the Supernatural Heroes (Mystical Warriors book 1)

FOURTEEN YEARS LATER

The fourteen years came and went like a running rabbit. The boy was named Matthew just as Nuallán was said to. Nuallán had taken Matthew who he saw had become an excellent, gifted boy. At age of nine months, the boy had begun to walk on his own. By the age of two years old, every time he would see a broken branch, a fire would ignite from thin air. At age six, white wings had appeared to him. As he grew taller and to the age of nine, Matthew had mastered strange, unbelievable abilities such as creating a wind storm, turning wood into fire, healing injures his body by using water, using his bare knuckles to dig holes without getting a scrape or bruise. When he turned ten, a tattoo-like mark appeared on his right lower arm. Then exactly on the day he turned fourteen, Nuallán introduced a dark, red armor to Matthew.

The red armor was one inch taller than him. The elbow and ankle joints had small, curved spikes. The shoulder pads were layered by two arched metal plates. The arms were latched over leather clothing. High boots were plated in eight layers of bendable metal. Lastly, a helmet to conceal his face from the public's eye.

After trying it on, Matthew felt the armor was light as a feather, and it also came with a red, leathered cape around his back and feathered clothing for his white wings, he looked like a red knight ready to fight in the night.

As six months rolled on, Matthew became a knight fighter fighting in the dark of the night. Late at night, he would leave the house when the family, which is Nuallán's family that consists of a wife and three boys, went to sleep. Matthew snuck out of the house and flew into the night sky.

Every time he left the house, he heard cries of agony. And through the night, he would save people from certain fates and he would fly all night, saving people.

And through the six months, he would become a historical night hero and a mysterious person. People he saved and with police, fighter-fighters, and other agents who would see him, they called him many titles such as the Black Fighter, the Lone Knight or the Black Knight, the Unknown Dark Creature, Evil Devil, and the Flying Demon, but there was one title everyone would call him: the Red Dragon.

Matthew was called this because he could fly at great heights, he could make fire without burning his armor, his wings could push away fire and lead the fire into a different direction, and his helmet does look like a dragon's head with carved horns.

Then near dawn, Matthew would return home before his family would be up. His family consists two younger foster brothers named Ben and Eric and a mother who had a strange, indoor attitude. Ben was the eldest of the two brothers, while Eric was the youngest.

For fourteen years of his life, Matthew had lived with this family and hiding the fact none of them, expect for Nuallán, know Matthew is a public figure. And he just didn't know yet he was destined with a future that lies in the great supernatural.

One day, six months after Matthew turned fourteen years; he came home flying towards the house he was raised in. He returned from saving a burning house from a great fire. As quickly as he showed up, he quickly left. All he did was three basic things: showed up, put out the fire, and left. And while he was there, he dove into the house and found a clothed weapon no one was touching or didn't bother of having and took it for his own.

After his rescue operation, he landed at his house. Then he looked around to make sure there wasn't anybody seeing him before he entered his house. He didn't want anybody around knowing his identity. Since he saw no one around, Matthew softly opened, entered the house, and closed the door behind him. As he entered through the doorway, he heard voices coming from the living room.
