chapter 1

Cobi peeked around the corner to see if the girl was still there. She was, but she was on the move, something that would not play to his advantage. He decided that it was now or never . He faded down into the shadow of the dark alleyway, watching the world change around him. It changed into one much darker, one where he could see all the shadows of the people in the world. There were some, rare, but some, who didn’t have shadows. Beings of light bothered him, because they were the ones that he could not harm. Disregarding his annoyance, he crept up to the shadow of the girl he was following, taking it by the shoulders and throwing it to the ground.

    Back on the surface, the girl was shocked as hands shot up from her shadow, grasping her shoulders and legs. She writhed and kicked, to no avail. When her energy was wearing thin, and she found herself with no options, she tried to scream for help. Before the shriek had barely left her mouth, another hand shot up and covered her mouth. Her mind was clouded with panic as she realized that it was too late. The hands began to drag her downward, and the world faded to a black limbo.

    Cobi looked her in the eyes, drawing uncomfortably close to her face. He knew that when he brought people down to the shadow world, they saw him as there worst fear. This helped him get away with things easier. No one would guess it was a regular guy when they saw whatever it was they were afraid of. He took her bag from her, rummaging through it. As he was doing so, he lifted a hand and snapped his fingers. The shadow hands restraining the girl, brought her back to the surface, then faded away, leaving the girl unconscious on the street.

    It didn’t take long for Cobi to find what he was looking for. After he did, he froze the bag and shattered it. He returned to the surface himself, looking at the girl passed out on the ground. He considered doing a bit… more. But then he decided against it. He began to walk back to class, counting the money he had taken from the girl as he did. It didn’t take him long to get to class, of course he was late, but that was the normal thing for him. He sat down in the back of class, dozing off in a few moments.

    When the bell rang Cobi woke to find out that someone had drawn a dick on his face. He cursed under his breath, getting up from his seat. The teacher saw the drawing as he got up, telling him to go and wash it off in the bathroom. He did as she said, though it took about fifteen minutes of scrubbing to get it off completely. He didn’t like the look of the red mark on his face now, but it would fade with time. His next period was a free one, he decide to leave school for the day
