Child Hood

Early one summer morning in the Eclipse Family house.

"Arron come on were gonna be late," a feminine voice shouted.

"coming mom," a small little boy replied while he struggled with putting on his jacket.

"come on that old jacket" his mother wined " its barely holding together," she said pointing out the loose strings and holes all over it.

"but mom its dads old jacket and my favorite," Arron replied crossing his arms.

"ugh fine lets get going we will be late if you keep slacking off," his mother scolded.

"ok mom lets go i cant wait," he said eagerly jumping up and down

letting out a small sigh his mother grabbed his hand and opened the front door. The sunrise blinded Arron while his mother put on a pair of sunglasses. They stepped out onto the lawn and walked towards the curb and started to head left down the road. Arron skipping ahead of his mother rambling on about something while his mother smiled and watched her only child talk with himself.

"come in phantom, do you have an eye on the targets?" said a voice to a figure sitting up on a hill. This figure was a tall thin man dressed in an old tan uniform with a long black cloak and a white mask covering its face.

"yes i do," the figure replied into a round object, "you never informed me that one of the targets was a child."

"no matter you were paid to take out both now do so" the object replied.

Sighing the figure pulled out a long rifle with a silencer and laid down in position read to fire with the cross hairs on the woman's head.

"alright taking out target one" the figure replied as he turned off the safety of the gun and pulled the trigger. Fallowing the pull of the trigger Arron's mother's head jerked to the side before she fell to the ground. Arron turned around to show his mother the cool rock he found, but to his horror he saw his mother laying on the ground in a pool of her own blood and brain matter. Arron rushed to his mother and picked up her head and stared into her lifeless eyes.

"mommy, mom," he pleaded " answer me mom wake up,"

With no response from his mother Arron pulled himself into his mothers arms and started to cry while pleading for her to wake up.

"phantom did you take out target number two yet," the voice barked

"oh calm your tits i'm on it," the figure replied as it positioned the cross hairs on the child's head. taking a breath in he ready his finger on the trigger. looking at the kid crying in his own mothers blood wrapped by her arms trigger something in him, if only for a second then he pulled the trigger.

"target two is eliminated," phantom said to the orb. "now if you excuse me in gonna go get a drink"

leaving the child and corpse alone on the side walk.

Hours passed as Arron sat there curled up crying before falling asleep out of exhaustion, not long after two figures came upon the child and took him away from his mothers corpse .
