Prologue

"I wasn't always this way. I was not always the hero you see me to be, a shoulder to cry on or someone who could be counted on. I know I am far from perfect. Where shall I begin? There really was no true beginning; change was gradual, like the winds over the rolling hills. My name is Leon and this is my story.

I have had my share of difficulties. I have stolen, cheated and lied. I know I have displayed my share of misplaced anger. So what changed? How did I become the hero you see me as today? I really cannot answer that but give me some time and I shall try.

It seems like so long ago now ... I was running havoc on my parents and pulling pranks at my school. I was nine the first time I met her. I didn't know it then but I would come to fall in love with this person. She was in every way my opposite (or so I thought). Where my hair was light, her hair was dark, where my eyes were dark, hers were light. It wasn't just looks though, our personalities were opposite also. Where I was a 'mischievous' child, she was a seemingly 'adult' child. She was a star pupil and the teacher's pet. The only thing that made us the similar, in my opinion, was the fact that we both shared High IQs.
