Chapter One
“Leave me alone, man,” screams Victor in the nocturnal blackness. “I don’t have any money or drugs.”
“Shut the fuck up.”
Although a moonless night darkened the unlit street, Victor sees the hooded figure wears a mask.
“You shot my brother, douchebag. Now I’ll kill you.”
It horrifies Victor and confusion reigns. He didn’t shoot anyone; in fact, under no circumstance did he hurt another person. What is this crazed dude talking about? The icy blade punctures the skin of Victor’s abdomen and slices it open. He never felt such excruciating pain as the knife cut a path, lacerating his intestines and spilling them out of their cavity. The mystery person runs into the night as Victor crashes to the cold sidewalk, shrieking in pain.
He curses his mother before passing out. If she possessed the maternal instinct a momma should have, he would not be out at this hour. His presence would be in a loving home, sheltered from evil lurking in the world. Instead, it prowls through the house.
A good Samaritan calls 911 and paramedics arrive not a moment too soon. Victor is near death, his body a lifeless mass on the ground. They airlift him to the trauma center at Northside General Hospital Gwinnert, and he remains for twelve days. Infection sets in and doctors find him hovering near death several times. Drifting in and out of consciousness, he hallucinates of his childhood and the torment he suffers. In all his days there, his mother never once comes to see him. Consumed in treachery on acquiring the almighty buck, she has little use for him or his siblings beyond the child support and government help she received. Except for his stay after the stabbing incident, Victor never had a need for hospitalization.
Victor’s parents divorced when he was 12 years old and his father, Drakkal, is a mixed-race Humcent. This man’s father arrived on earth in 1947. Unbeknownst to the U.S. government, Victor’s granddad was a crewman on the spacecraft that crashed in Roswell, Texas. He survived with minor injuries and disappeared before the military and police responded to the scene. Able to assimilate after meeting other Centaurs and Humcents, he settles down. After three divorces, he marries a fourth time. This lady gives birth to Drakkal.
In 1984, Drakkal Dark weds Alvita Jackson. The most interesting thing attracting Drakkal to Alvita is her
