Everyday is the same. Every obnoxious 'good morning' wake up call by my overly perky for an old age pensioner grandmother. Every bowl full of artificially sweetened breakfast cereal that drips from the spoon like rain drops falling from the grey, gloomy sky.

From the day he could talk, Sebastian Issac Drayton knew he was different, he knew somewhere in the back of his mind that he was abnormal to his peers and it didn't once phase him or make him want to change his abnormal ways. Until one day when Sebastian's world comes crashing down right in front of him, everything he had and everything he once knew is striped from his control and there is nothing he can do to change it.
