Name: Lexington (Lex) Gage<br/>Age: 17<br/>Gender: Male<br/>Race: Human<br/>Occupation: Student<br/>Appearance:<br/><a class="postlink" href="http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m137/doodad64/Ruffy.jpg">[ img ]</a><br/><br/>Normally wears jacket below<br/><br/><a class="postlink" href="http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m137/doodad64/timecannoterase.jpg">[ img ]</a><br/><br/>Personality: Somewhat shy, introverted, absent minded. Lex often daydreams.<br/><br/>-------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>The past day was a blur. All he remembered was he was approached by a rather darker member of his class, one who had a reputation for being creepy and a self proclaimed witch. He never believed in the stuff, but she was the only girl to talk to him this year and he misunderstood her offer to meet after school as an offer for courtship, yet when he met her, she told him something he never really wanted to admit to himself. She told him that even though he had spent his years through school working on being anonymous, trying his best to not stand out and keep his head under the radar, by doing so he would never obtain happiness. She told him that sharing his life with others was the key to being happy.<br/><br/>She was right. Lex had no friends, never been kissed, lived at home with his parents and stuck in his room all the time absorbed in movies, cartoons, and video games. It wasn't because he thought of himself as ugly or overweight. He was far from it. He just considered himself, well, different.<br/><br/>Lex didn't feel like conforming to the idea that you had to socialize to survive in the world. Yet as he contemplated his life, she said something that hit too close to home. She told him that he probably, deep down, thinks that he considers himself too normal and that he didn't have anything special about himself that other people would be interested in. She said he probably secretly wished he had something about himself that was extraordinary, so much that other people would be drawn to him and praise him.<br/><br/>She was right. There was countless times he pictured himself with super powers and becoming a hero to all, or becoming so smart he figured out how to cure cancer. He sometimes wished there was something about himself that would impress others, but the harsh reality was, there was nothing.<br/><br/>But why was it this girl called him out just to tell him his own darkest secrets? What was it she wanted? A crooked smile from the Gothic girl made shivers run down his spine as she approached him, she planted her palm on his chest. Her next words were the last thing he remembered before she pushed him backwards and he fell into dark nothingness...<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">"Be careful what you wish for. Wishing to be different can be a double edged sword. Take it from me, not everyone would think of you the same if you are different. Don't wish to be something you are not. I will grant your wish so that you may learn what it's like. Remember my name, Lex so that you will know who to curse when you suffer the scorn of many eyes upon you when their interest in you turns to fear. I am Lilith."</span><br/><br/>Lex woke slowly, his vision blurred and pain ran through his back. He knew he fell and swore he saw at least two levels of an apartment building fly by as he dropped through the air. Now he lay on his back, he assumed on a pile of newly crushed cardboard boxes. He groaned loudly, but still couldn't move. Pain shot throughout his body and his eyes felt heavy. Now to make matters worse, it started to rain. Even though he had the deep hood of his black jacket over his head, it did little good while he laid flat on his back. His thoughts swam in his head, He tried to focus and put together what happened but it was hard. Did she drug him and throw him in an alley? Where exactly was he? Questions ran rampant in his mind and he coughed, pain shooting through his head ceasing all thought on the matter. He had to get up and get help, but still could not move. The rain picked up and the cold water on his face made him start to shiver...
