They say "every life is precious" Well I call bullshit on that. The name's Vincent Morgan but my friends call me vince... Just kidding, I don't have any friends.
Ever since I was a little kid I always acted different from the others;I was told that I didn't cry when I was born, i just stared at them.
Also I seem to have the worst luck like I'm the personification of the butterfly effect, everything I did seemed to come back to bite me. Growing up with two brothers really didn't help cuz I was always being compared to those two like I get it I'm weird you don't need to rub it in.
As you can imagine, I'm basically an outcast in school. No one in their right mind would wanna want to be friends with the weird ass kid I mean even the social rejects don't want me.
As if that wasn't enough I managed to get myself a bully;Randy the dumbest dude I've met in my entire life but a major pain in the ass.
"Hey Vincent how many weirdos does it take to change a light bulb" He blurted "what are you twelve? No one talks like this anymore" I retorted and instantly I regretted opening my dumb mouth cuz he proceeded to beat the shit out of me.
Fast forward to high school and things only got worse. My parents who kept a perfect public facade were fighting with each other more.
Classes are no fun anymore and I can barely keep up. I'm more depressed than usual and Randy seems to attend the same school as me.
Im pretty overwhelmed at this point. No one should experience this much stress. I'm only 16 but I look like I'm in my twenties.
I can't take it anymore, life has no meaning for me at this point so I decided to do what any sane teenager my age would do: commit suicide.
It was a chilly wednesday, I decided to skip all my classes and have some fun seeing as today's the day I unalive myself.
After a whole day of goofing off I started looking for the biggest building I could find to jump off from.
After reaching the top of an abandoned school building, I realized that I was scared of heights but I'm already here so I might as well.
Looking back at how I spent the last sixteen years of my life and I almost cringed at how mundane and boring it was.
"Maybe in my next life I'll be more adventurous" as I closed my eyes I slowly took a deep breath and without thinking twice I jumped...
"I'll never understand humanity's obsession with suicide".. This voice rang deep in my head. I must be imagining things cuz as far as I can tell I'm the only one dropping to my death so who the hell said that.
It was at that point I realized: I'm not falling any more. My heart started racing, I started flailing my hands trying to shout for help.
"That's seems pointless don't you think" The voice said again, his voice ringing louder than the first time he spoke. "Who are you, show yourself" I screamed.
"As you wish human". Suddenly a large figure appeared in front of me, it had on a pitch black cloak which looked like it was flowing. It had very large obsidian wings with scarlet tips that glowed majestically. I was so scared and dumbfounded I thought my jaw would drop.
I'm not dreaming, I'm actually face to face with a freaking angel. "Wait are you here to take me to heaven. I can't believe I made the list" I rambled on. "Of all the humans why am I stuck with you" The angel replied and I could have sworn he sighed.
"You don't have to sound so disappointed about it" I retorted, my ego bruised. "I will just have to make due with you" The angel replied and then he stretched out his glowing pale hand to me. "Vincent Morgan, you have been selected as one of earths defenders in the coming BATTLE OF DIVINITY". The angels voice thundered
I don't know what came over me, maybe the overwhelming presence of the angel before me but I shook his hand and I suddenly felt a jolt pass throughout my entire body. "The bond is set and cannot be undone until either your triumph or death at the hands of the enemy".
Wait did he just say death at the hands of the enemy? As in I have to battle someone, " Listen I think you've got the wrong guy,I can't even kill a fly talk less of a human being " I screamed hysterically. "It is too late, the bond has been set"
And just like that, my chaotic life just got more chaotic
