Volume 1: Within the Spotlight

Prologue Hour / [Episode 1: The Phantom's Light]

Centuries ago, there was a legend of a Mysterious Phantom Thief who could elude the police by fleeing into the shadows.

Recorded documents about him, the phantom's enigmatical existence faded, into security and vanished into the shadowy covered corridors, just as he did.

For some generations his existance was unknown; nobody knew anything about him. As time pasted the legacy went on and on that is up until now...

"Until the right time awakens..

I will not interfer with his life.

It's time for you to step forth into the spotlight..

...of this forgotten life..

..this so called..

..Inevitable destiny!"

Noises fill the streets (below) as the lights begin to illuminate the night sky (over head them all on the ground). Trains pass us by as cars and people continue on walking onwards down below the skyscraper rooftops.

Rain began to topple down upon his pure completion (face). He started to look up toward the starry moonlit skies that began to fill up with clouds and a hazy mist which covered the once so clear crystal heavens.

The far-off view was no longer in vision; the distance was as though it had become a translucent type of crystal glass, thick and hard to see through.

A very faint voice from behind him called out saying, "I'll be waiting.. for you..," the sound of the whispering voice made him uneasy, as he looked around he found no trace of anyone being there.

With no avail of seeing anyone or thing, he still had his goals in his sight as he made his way back to the headquarters (HQ) that was inside the abandoned apartment building. It was located on 26th Northern Star Avenue (Ave.)

This was a town he had called home since he was a little boy and now he was a young man of 21-years-old. "An ordinary boy, am I?" He thought to himself, "One who think of me as such, right..? But I am not normal! I have another identity.. a secret identity.. That nobodyknows about.. At least, I didn't think that they knew.. about it," he ended himself remark.
