Every scar tells a story, and every story shapes the man who will save-or end-the world.
Michael's childhood wasn't a tale of innocence-it was a series of battles no child should ever have to fight. From broken glass underfoot in a volatile home to hollow stares in empty rooms, his young life was defined by moments of fear, loss, and defiance. At the heart of it all is Michael: a boy torn between love for the father who fought for him and resentment for a world that kept pulling him down. Each chapter unravels the dark, formative years that hardened his spirit, revealing the boy behind the scars, the anger behind his silence, and the grit behind his survival.
More than just tragedy, Michael's story is a testament to resilience. Readers will feel the heat of his anger, the sting of his betrayals, and the flicker of hope that refuses to die-because sometimes the most broken children grow up to become the most powerful heroes.
Before Michael could save the world, he had to survive his own.
