Chapter 1 - Chapter 1 The son of who?

my name is Jericho im 17 and I live in an orphanage still I never met my parents so I never learned my last name, i have a best friend named kanan who has tried for a very long time too convinces his parents to adopt me but he was never able to convince them to be honest that's fine I will be out of this place when I turn 18 in a month I'll be able to live my own life and make my own choices. although I do not think I will ever get a girlfriend do to my appearance, I was born with purplish black hair and my eyes are two different colors one it looks like a dark red color the other looks like blue ice I was always made fun of for that they always called me evil to make fun of me, I'm not the most handsome individual but I am pretty average looking and my beard I'm trying to grow is coming in nicely, as for my physical body that's another story I've always had incredible strength speed and physique. I would say I have about as much muscle as a college football player my friend would always jokingly heavily disagree by calling me fat, although due to me being in the orphanage I still went to school and I am now a senior. i was always good at fighting I was always able to stick up to bullies and I joined the Fight Club as well, although when I asked the orphanage if I can take martial arts lessons they would always say no, the orphanage I was staying in was definitely not normal, kind of strange and creepy the nannies and the people who worked there always looks really old like they could croak at any second. the others always have disabilities like wounds that you wouldn't think they'd survive and sometimes when did they think I'm not looking they just stare at me... it's almost like they're already dead but that can't be... right? that wasn't even the weirdest part of my life I've always felt pulled into different parts if that makes sense the first part is me is just me my personality everything about me but then there's two other parts that are trying to reach me but they just can't due to this feeling I wasn't able to make many friends. I've always had so much Social physical and mental anxiety I was always the quiet kid in class but smart and all the girls thought I was scary and most of the guys almost feared me, (r i p to my social life) but Kanan still stayed with me and that was all I needed. a few weeks went by fast and today was my birthday little did I know it would change me forever it all started pretty much a normal day but when I got back to the orphanage from school. it was gone like it had never been there in the first place, unfortunately bully named Derek blew up one of the toilets with a firecracker and framed me for it and I had hours of detention, so I was standing there in the dark no place to go and a sense of panic came up all I thought at that moment was that I was just having an anxiety attack but it was like i wasn't alone, I could hear almost screeching in the distance and when I looked up I saw it it looks like a bat in the sky in front of the Moon but as the screeching became louder and I got closer I noticed the bat was almost the size of the 32 ft orphanage but it was bigger and it was coming this way but the thing scared me most is apparently I was the only one who could see it I was on the street with many people around me and no one else notice that is when I heard a voice behind me saying, get down!! i immediately dropped to the ground as the bat went down for an attack and Miss Me by a hair, next thing I saw was someone someone shooting what looks like a beam of lava from their mouth but I got a closer look at them it was kanan and his skin was grey and red and he had wings when I looked up all I could see of the bat was it's smoldering ashes, then he walked over to me and said sorry for lying to you this whole time I am a gargoyle and I was sent by your father to protect you until you could protect yourself, what do you mean I said, Jericho you are a son of Hades, WTF
