17 July
8 Year old May POV
'Come lets go!'I say to Max
''Alright!Alright!Im coming!"My nerdy brother responds
'Where's mommy and daddy?"I question in my head
Suddenly, a bang was heard.Max and I rush to the source and see both mommy and daddy lying lifelessly on the ground in their pool of blood.
'M-mommy?D-d-daddy?No...please!Wake up...don't weave me!'I sob
With the last bit of life they had, they spoke.
'May...our dearest daughter...it is no longer safe for you here...we thought we could protect you but...we can no longer do so...take care of Max and run to another city...we wish to be there for you but...we can't...we love you May...And Max..."And then as it was said, they went into their forever slumber...
'NO!'I scream
-------------------------------------------------------
"NO!"I scream, panting for air and breaking out in a cold sweat.
"All just a dream...phew..."I murmur to no one in particular.
Suddenly, a bang was heard.I rushed down the stairs to the source of the sound.I got to the point where I could see my mom and dad lying there lifelessly in their own pool of blood.I could see a man in black with a gun in his hand.He must have shot them!
"Heh...since you won't tell me, then this is your fate!"He snarled and kicked their bodies before exiting.The minute he leaves, I run to them.
"M-mom?D-d-dad?No...please!Wake up...don't weave me!"I sob
With the last bit of strength they had, they said.
"May...our daughter...its is no longer safe for you here...we thought that we could protect you but...we can no longer do so...take care of Max and run to another city...we wish to be there with you but...we are unable to...we love you May...And Max..."And with those words said, they went into an eternal slumber, the gateway to a better place.
"NO!"I scream.
But I stop when I smell something...wait...its...smoke?!
I look out the window to see our house was starting to go on fire!With my instinct, I ran to Max's room and carried him and jumper out the window and into the tree that was not too far from the window.
Max slowly wakes up.
"M-may...wha-"He looks to see our house that was burning to a crisp
"O-our house!No..."He sobbed on my shoulder which left a wet patch but it didn't matter now.
"Where's mom and dad?"He asks.I hesitate but I have to tell him, he would find out sooner or later.
"Mom and Dad are...gone...to a better place..."I said with my head hung low.
Max breaks down in more sobs and I join in.
-------------------------------------------------------
-time skip but here is what happened after the incident-
We ended up getting adopted by a nice couple and of course, every year on 17 July, we would visit our parents grave.
I grew into depression and locked myself from everyone.I just couldn't take in the fact that my parents died before my very eyes!Max always tried to cheer me up but it hardly ever worked.Max got over it sooner then me and he became a genius!He started hacking into all kinds of things and inventing stuff and I always had to test them out.
2 years after our parents death, our adoptive parents went missing and were never found.
Max and I soon got adopted again by a very nice lady named Joyce.
She treated us like her own and we did our best to do the same.
I soon got out of depression at the age of 12 and decided to make a change in the world.
I started learning martial arts, fencing, cooking, gymnastics and so on.
I then started going around helping people with missions and saving people.Max was the guys who provided my gadgets and transport.
How he knows where all the trouble is?Well he hacked into ASTW(agents save the world)
What is that you ask?well it is a group of people who go around helping people.I don't work there for I don't want to abide by their laws and standards.All I need was me, myself and Max!
Ever since my parents died, I only looked out for Max and myself and no one else.
And now here I am today, I'm 17 now and I'm well known around the world for saving people and stuff.
And this is where, my story begins....
