I didn't expect much, not warm hugs, passionate kisses, or even a hearty hand shake. What I expected was cold shoulders, ignorance and annoyed glances. Turns out, I was dead wrong, things were much worse than I thought. If only the people I asked knew the cause of this, maybe I would be able to figure out a way to stop it from getting any worse. How is this happening? Who's responsible for this destruction? So many questions spinning around in my head, but no one has the answer. Suddenly, a tall dark stranger wearing a black hat, black coat and brown leather boots emerged from a dark alley. I saw him put his hand under his coat, and saw a shape forming. Oh wait, is that a gun? Is he going to kill me? I only set foot in this town for not more than 5 minutes and already there's some guy trying to kill me. Well, if it isn't just my luck. The stranger walks slowly toward me, never once did we lose eye contact. I was trying to gauge what he was going to do next, hoping his next move wouldn't lead to my fatal death.

After for what seemed like an eternity, he did what I suspected. He raised his gun and pointed it towards me, never breaking eye contact. What surprised me was what happened next. He pulled the trigger, yes he did, but when the shot went off, I didn't feel a thing except for the fact that strands of my hair were flying as result of the force from the bullet. My expression turned from one of worry and caution to one of surprise and confusion. I did hear the shot go off, and I was curious to as what he was aiming at since it was clear that it wasn't me. I broke eye contact and turned around to find that the stranger shot a filthily ragged young man who was holding a knife, who was probably trying to kill me. The first thought that came into my mind was, : "Is there anybody in this town that is NOT trying to kill people?" The second thought was : "Who is this stranger that just saved my life?"

After staring at the body for quite a long period of time, I finally gathered my thoughts and slowly turned around to face the person who presumably just saved my life. Sadly, to my disappointment, the stranger in the black coat was gone. However, his face will remain clearly etched in my mind, as I owe him for saving what was probably the most precious thing to me right now. One thing was for certain, I had to find out who he was. I had to track him down and confront him. I had to find out why he would risk himself to save me. Me, who he did not know, who he never laid eyes on before. I'm just a stranger passing through this monstrous town.

And so, after a very long thinking session, I decided to track this mysterious stranger down. Although I was sent here for a different reason altogether, I'm sure Alan would understand. After all, he is the one who's always encouraging me to follow my heart and do what I think is best. Oh Alan, how I miss you so. Charles Alan Skye is my so-called butler. He's been there since I was an infant, he was there when my parents died in a tragic car accident, and he was there when I was going through my awkward teenage stages. Little did I know then that he was sent to me as I was destined to be the one who could save mankind. I, Alexis Brooke Maxwell, who has just turned 17, was going to be the saviour of mankind.
