《TRX's Adventures》Prologue

- Wow, this started something... - Eliah said. - Is it okay to tell this in front of a child?
- I don't know. - I said. - But...
- Oh... And to think my mom and dad see stuff like this every day, wow. - said the girl.
- W-what? - Eliah. - W-well... That aside, why did you start the story like that?
- Ah, well...
- You know, it's just... It's stupid to start like that. It's as if you said, "This right here is going to happen much later in the story, so suck it up for all these hours full of boredom to get to this 'interesting moment.'"
- ...
The little girl was looking at us confused.

Well, let's continue.

- Hey, don't ignore me!

Location: A town in West Virginia. (November 28th, 1970)
It was a very quiet night. At that late hour of the night, no one was to be found on the streets of that large town on the side of a mountain. In the silence of the night, a young couple wearing cloaks that hid their faces were carrying a basket.
- Hey... Are you sure that what we are doing is right? I... I can't...
Said a female voice, which was answered by a male one.
- We have to do this. We've talked about this before... Besides, we're still too young to be parents... And yes, I know you were taking care of our son for two years... But still, it's better to do this.
They were two people, a boy and a girl, who looked to be between fourteen and sixteen years old.
- I know I told you this before, but what you're saying doesn't make sense... Why should we abandon him when we can raise him together? We have the means to do it...

- No... Even it is painful for me to do this! Don't you understand? - exclaimed the boy, despite the silence it seemed that no one had heard him. - I'm sorry.... I got carried away.... But seriously, we should do this, I'll tell you about it when we get back to your place.
- But... I hope what we do is the right thing to do.
After saying that, they both went to the door of a house. Already in front of it, the girl left the basket there, knocked on the door and they both proceeded to run away.
A few seconds later, a woman appeared who looked to be in her fifties. When she saw that there was no one at the door, she decided to leave, but something stopped her.
At her feet was a basket, a baby barely a year old was inside, very sheltered and with a folded paper.
The woman picked up the baby, along with the basket, and went into the house.
The folded paper contained the baby's name, age and birthday... Yes, that was on it, albeit without a birth year (?), but that was easy to deduce...
The baby's name was Mathias Donovan and his birthday was January 15, he was ten months old. That child had a birthmark on his left hand, but the lady didn't think anything of it. That mark had a shape similar to an H. Also, next to it, there was a dot.
The woman called the authorities to see if they could find a relative who had custody of the child (besides, she knew his last name.) But, unbelievably, they could not find any relative. Because of this, the lady decided to raise the child.
Telling you more, Mathias had been raised by that woman, who was the sister of the town priest. She was a widow, she had lost her husband and her son in 1968, due to a traffic accident from which she didn't come out unscathed either... But that's not what's important right now, isn't it? Or is it? She is fine, currently, for your information.

After the above, five years have passed. Mathias was already a six-year-old boy. At that time, Mathias had blond, slightly long hair and was 1.21 meters tall (which is not very relevant). His eyes were black and he had a little black mole on his right cheek.
- Mom, I'll be right back! - Mathias shouted.
- Yes, son, but be back before lunch, okay?
- Yeah!
Mathias quickly left the house to go play with his friends.

The Underbelly
There's something wrong with Port City. In the aftermath of the Hyde Park massacre, the city increased its police force dramatically, and Wyatt Milter found himself in uniform, with a gun, a badge, and dreams of someday making detective, but with no clue how to actually make it happen. These days a new, ugly kind of violence is rising on the streets. As a bizarre group of characters emerges from Port City's underbelly, Wyatt will be forced into making a difficult decision. Will he remain a cop? Or will he serve a different kind of justice? (Author's Note: I started writing this about 10 years ago and only now got around to the idea of uploading it. As a result, much of this predates the rising popularity of the Green Arrow. I'm uploading as is, but future drafts will make minor alterations to the character to differentiate it.)

The Devils Of The Biterrain
Zavier was an unremarkable suburbanite living just outside of Seattle. He was finishing up his final semester of high school and preparing to go to college despite a nagging lack of excitement for his future. In the blink of an eye, his life is thrown into chaos when Zavier meets a young man from an alien world named Yafu. Yafu has accidentally been thrown to Earth via portal while chasing the dangerous Poison Fang cult on his world. These two boys quickly come into contact with Arigo, a mysterious and powerful defender of Earth from various interlopers from Yafu’s world, known as the Biterrain. When Arigo discovers that Zavier was used as an unknowing and seemingly impossible vessel for the Fang to try to invade Earth, Arigo decides to send the two boys, along with his faithful assistant Anenna, to the Biterrain for answers on Zavier’s anomalous condition. In this new and dangerous world, Zavier weighs his own feelings of personal inadequacy against the backdrop of his sudden and mysterious importance. Meanwhile Yafu struggles with the limits to his thirst for vengeance and ultimately his future without it. Finally, Anenna must begin to confront a new identity as the last parts of her old one abandon her. In the background of their journey is the mystery around the Immortal King, the mythic founder of the Biterrain’s dominant religion who allegedly disappeared to Earth many millennia ago. Despite the planet being central to the dogma around their messiah figure, Earth has been relegated to myth and conjecture by the general populace of the Biterrain due to their inability to validate its existence in the present time. How will Zavier navigate in a world where he holds its holy grail within his own identity and who can he really trust in a world of such contrived obliviousness?
