I know what you're thinking right now.
I'm a monster.
A horrible, evil monster.
But I wasn't always like this.
I never wanted to be creature I've become.
All I ever wanted was to have a peaceful, happy life. But I know that can never happen.
My story is so long.
Where to start?
How about the beginning?
Yes, that's the best place to start.
My name is Edgar. Edgar Conan Parker.
I was born and raised in a small town in England.
I had a fairly normal and happy childhood.
Oh right, I forgot to mention when I was born.
1680, give or take a few years.
My father was a woodcutter.
He had rough, calloused skin that was almost always dirty, a long beard that matched the color of his hair, and unforgettable eyes the color of the sea.
Sometimes when I close my eyes I can still see his, just staring at me.
Sorry, I'm getting off topic.
Where was I again?
Ah yes, my parents.
My mother would make blankets and cloth which she would sell at the market.
She had a tall willowy figure, curly brown hair, and deep, kind, eyes the color of oak.
I had lots of friends too, my closest friend was a girl named Rachelle Gardenia.
She had long, dark,brown hair, sparkling emerald eyes, cheeks that seemed to always blush a pinkish hue, and a warm smile.
The warmest one I'd ever known.
She was so sweet.
That all changed on that fateful day.
I was ten years old.
I had gone out to check the traps we'd set in the woods to see if we had caught anything.
Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined what was about to happen next.
I saw a wolf.
I only got a glimpse at it but that was enough for me to tell that it was not your ordinary wolf.
It was far to huge to be.
It pounced on me in the blink of an eye.
I tried to dodge it but it was much too late by then.
It's teeth were yellowed and razor sharp, I could feel it's claws digging into my flesh, it's eyes we're those of a demons.
I tried to move but I couldn't, I was utterly paralyzed.
I howled with pain as the gruesome creature sunk its teeth into my arm.
The world seemed to be spinning around me at the speed of light.
Then everything went black.
