To many, I'm just an ordinary boy, but deep down, I'm no ordinary boy, nor am I a child. I've lived my life in the cold, dark, ruthless, and corrupted city known as United City. My father did the best he could to raise me, and throughout my life, I've only ever managed to develop a friendship with my friend Avery and somewhat of a love interest with Ashley, but even the bond between them can't suppress the darkness within my heart after these three men took the life of my father in the most brutal way...right in my eyes.
Now I shall channel the darkness within my heart and kill anybody responsible for the death of my father. I could care less if it's a man, woman, or child. I will make the men who killed my father suffer in the most brutal way and then watch them take their last breath when I take their lives. The darkness within my heart shall morph me into the dark hood, into the Shadow I must become to exact my revenge.
They say when you begin your quest for revenge, dig two graves, one for your enemy and one for yourself. My quest for revenge will end with countless graves being created, but none of them will be for me.
My name is Eli Jones, and this is the story of how I achieved my revenge and how my actions ultimately have consequences.
