Description

Personality

Matthew is and has always been pushed around his whole life. His parents were jackasses, who told them he wasn't special. He was a loner in a way. Always told he is average, nothing special. Truth is, they were all wrong. So very very wrong. Matthew has a gift. A powerful one. But if someone ever took control of him, it could mean oppressive domination. For you see, he is able to control energies. Now, on their own, they would do nothing. However, there is a giant space-time rift that stretches throughout the universe. These energies allow him manipulation of The Rift. These powers alone make him formidable. Definitely not invincible, but it makes him a major pain in the ass.

This gives him the ability to affect time and space. This power, if enhanced, and controlled by someone who didn't know what they are doing, could result in total chaos and destruction. But in the right "vessel", without modification, it can be maintained and under check as long as there is no excess ordeal or stress.

Equipment

Whatever he can carry in his backpack.

History

He doesn't talk about where he came from or anything from his past. But people are after him. His powers have caused him to get their attention. Mob bosses, Government Leaders, Crime Lords, Rich Powerful people. Pretty much anyone you could imagine. His gift is unique. So he is hunted across the universe.

And he is only like, 9-10. Again, he doesn't say. But he knows how to fight. He knows how to use his powers. He just might not always have total control.

Whats worst is that he not only didn't choose this life, he never wanted it. His parents abandoned him because of his power. People hunt him for it. He is pretty much wanted everywhere. The only reason he hasn't been caught yet in his power. He is on his own. No human generosity thus far.

His life sucks. To put it Blatantly.

So begins...

Matthew Reed was sitting in a Cafe on Main Street, not wanting to attract much attention. Although he seemed like just a kid, he was anything but. He was wearing sunglasses, with some reflective mirroring he had bought in some spy store. He could see anyone coming up behind him.

However, he couldnt see every angle. About 78 degrees to his left, 4 men were watching him, each of them armed, but none of them making a move. Just watching. Matthew took a sip of water, and waited for the waiter to give him his food. French Fries and a Hamburger, with none of those pickles or the like. And Ketchup.

Matthew Reed was startled by the man. He noticed the Dark Fedora first, and worked his way down. Scars, Cigarette. Matthew tried to keep a neutral face, but the fact is this man did scare him a little. He himself was wearing a T shirt with a sweatshirt over it. Both of them were light though, and offered very little heat protection. He also had some jeans.

He silently took in a breath, and then replied "That all depends on who you are....and why you are here...". He was careful as he put his hand on his backpack. He wasn't sure if he would need to run or not. Thats when the waiter came and delivered his food, asking the man if he wanted any as well.

Matthew Reed heard his reply. He couldn't see the mans face much when he sat down, the light was only coming from above the Fedora. Noticing his slight accent, he simply nodded at the first question, if only to get it out of the way.

Was eating his food when he put on his own order. The waiter also put down an extra glass of water. Thats when the man re-asked the question. "I am here because I am hungry. Thats what you are supposed to do at a cafe. That and having a drink" he noted, finishing his first water. Thats when the waiter was coming back. "And I don't need anyone for me to order something to eat and eat...."

Matthew Reed looked around, and then looked back at the man. He momentarily clenched his teeth when he mentioned runt. He hated that nickname. That, combined with the question, got him open, if only temporarily. "Wing City is both the most dangerous and the safest city I have found. And my parents are probably off drinking wine. They probably don't even remember my name! Why is that you ask? Because they hate me!".

He was accidentally letting loose some tears, and tried to cover it up. He instantly clammed up, not giving any more details.

Matthew Reed had been climbing up the mountain. If he found anyone, he would say recreational sport. But actually, he was avoiding some people who he really didn't know, but did not need to. He managed to climb up the difficult path when he saw an elf trying to get up. If this was a trap, it was extremely well placed, considering he only started coming this way 3 minuets ago.

He walked over to him, and asked "What happened to you?". For once, the person who found the wounded person did not ask if the victim was okay when he clearly isn't. "You look like you need a Doctor".

Matthew Reed looked at the prince as if he was crazy. "It sure looks like you do, if you cant stay up on your own. YOu know, its not a bad thing to ask for help". Actually, Matthew himself was a bit hypocritical. He rarely let anyone close enough to help him overcome the atrocities he had to face. Hatred from parents, abandonment, the rest of it all.

However, when he mentioned him as a "brat", that ticked him off. He hated being called a "child" or "kid", but he hated being called a brat the most. HATED it. Which is why he pointed out "And its rude insult people offering you help. Especially if they might not if your rude to them".

Matthew Reed looked at him, and offered to help him up after he apoligised. He also then looked at everyone else showing up, and asked "What is this? Some sort of party everyone can see and knows about?"

Matthew Reed watched the elf. He himself was utterly surprised by him, and took a step back. People running out of nowhere always caused him to step back, and he was about ready to run, except it was just him, and he seemed harmless. So did the last one though...

"We need to get him to a hospital, or a healer, or something. From what I noticed, it seems like there could be some broken bones" He actually wasn't a medical expert, but he knew enough to know some limbs might be broken.

Matthew Reed looked at Casia. Something about those words...how long had it been since someone actually called him smart and boy, let alone either one of those. Thats when he recalled: It was never. Thats when he felt a tear going down his face, and suppressed the emotions, saying "You have to be smart to survive. Its what keeps people alive". Those words were unusually cold for someone his age, indicating something about his past. But before anyone could question him, he noted "Yelling won't make you feel better. Shit, we need to get him down from this mountain, without having him bleed to death or dying from pain. Any ideas?"

Matthew Reed looked back at Casia. He did climb up a mountain to avoid anyone who was following him. "Yeah...well, you can get more people to search later. He is critically injured, and needs immediate medical attention".

When they began talking, he noted to Casia "Have to be..." he started, then she wiped the tear away. He was happy for a moment, it was a new feeling. He then looked down the road. "YOu should hurry then, before he bleeds to death".

Matthew Reed had been listening, but the question struck him more then the rest. In the interest of making sure he wouldn't be in danger, Matthew withheld his last name, simply answering Casia "Matthew. Just Matthew. Its a long story...one for later. Or never. Anyways, we need to move. I don't want to be out here when the wolves come out to hunt...and neither do any of you..."

Matthew Reed looked around, and noted "As long as..." he started, but catching himself, continued differently by saying "...we try to avoid any complications or questions...". He cursed himself silently for letting the last part slip out.

That's when he added "It looks like it might start raining soon". Hopefully this would avoid discussion about him.

Matthew Reed walked over to Casia. He went with her, and also looked around, making sure no one was around lurking, and did not see them.

Matthew was wrong about one thing though. It didn't start raining soon. It started raining immediately. And quickly. A quick storm was coming. And it would be a big one.

Matthew Reed looked around, and was completely soaked within the minuet. His clothes certainly made him heavier. However, he also was reminded of an apple in a pocket. He would remember this for later.

"I hate getting wet".

Matthew woke up asleep by some books in a closet. He had recently been sleeping there, as he didn't have any other place to live. His parents had kicked him out, and they were jackasses. He didn't have money for a hotel. He had already broken in twice to his favorite hotel.

He picked up one of the books. It was some book written in 2105, about a hero named Carrus. He put the book in his bag, and took out an apple. All of a sudden, a second apple appeared in his other hand. In truth, it was the same apple from another dimension. Sometimes he could do that, pull small objects through the rift. Other times, he could accelerate or stop time or shift gravity or teleport. His powers were unpredictable, and occasionally disastrous.

As he left the closet, he looked around. He was tired of having to deal with mercs. He needed to find a way off this rock without attracting attention.

Then, to his left, Matthew might notice a strange source of light...a twinkling golden something sparkling in the dusty light of the afternoon. Upon closer inspection, it was a prism that looked like it was entirely made out of black glass, spinning slowly like a top in mid-air.

There was a warm light from inside of it, and it seemed to buzz softly...

Matthew found the strange source of light interesting...but also threatening. At first, he thought his powers were acting up, trying to pull something through the rift. Once or twice a living person fell out of the rift. It was like he himself was a mobile Rift Hotspot.

As he backed up, the wooden table next to him started to rapidly age. It was because this light was making him nervous. This feeling was causing his heart to beat a little faster, and for the rift to begin taking a more active affect around him.

You see, there were people who could manipulate the rift, but only Matthew, as far as he knew, could control it. It made him unique. Or, to most people in the world, a valuable commodity.

The prism spoke as it slowly turned on its upright axis, its inner light fluctuating as it did so. Matthew might start to feel a funny buzz in the back of his head...

"Do not be afraid, Matthew." the prism said, gently floating towards him.

"May name is Nealaphh...I am here to help you."

"The last person to say that tried to kidnap me" Matthew mentioned, as a book three feet away from him turned to dust. He backed away from the weird crystal entity thing. Matthew didn't trust anyone anymore. Most kids have their parents teach them how to ride a bike. He had to teach himself. It was very painful.

He felt this buzz at the back of his head. He didn't know what was causing it, but he had an idea. "What are you doing?!"

"I apologize. I can't see people physically. I can only feel where their minds are. It's just me reaching out." Nealaphh said, his voice a calm, collected buzz. He could feel though that his approach was concerning to the young man. That would not do, so he stopped his slow advance.


"I understand that you have been hunted and pursued. I am here to off to put an end to that."
