30 years ago.
A black-haired young man with messy hair and boredom on his attractive face was walking in the streets, towards the unknown.
The streets were bustling with citizens of every age; some were with their families, some with their lovers, and some with their friends.
Only this black-haired young man was alone. With his hands on his pockets, he looked delinquent, which caused everyone who came across him to avoid him like the plague.
It didn't help that he was wearing a black leather jacket and pants, making him look like a biker. That alone didn't make him look delinquent; instead, the skull symbol on the back of his jacket did and ear piercings.
Coming to a crossroads, with a crosswalk in front of him, he stopped as the lights were red.
Looking at the red light, waiting for it to change colors, he waited silently.
On the opposite side of the road was his destination.
It was a fancy dojo with energetic young men and women going in and out of the building. Some were older, but they still talked with younger ones; most of the conversation was concentrated around Martial Arts.
*Ding*
The red light became yellow.
Yellow light became green.
The black-haired young man crossed the road and entered the dojo through the front door. The first thing he saw was a spacious lounge with all kinds of shelves with trophies and pictures of young men and women cheering.
Few noticed the black-haired young man arriving; they looked wary after seeing his delinquent-like look.
But, the black-haired young man wasn't interested in them; instead, he walked towards the receptionist desk, where a young lady around her 15s was sitting with her lengthy black hair reaching her shoulders.
Looking very adorable and gentle.
It was obvious that she was quite popular, because the ones who noticed her, had a hard time looking away.
*Tap* *Tap*
The black-haired young man tapped the desk couple of times with his index finger, which attracted the young woman's attention.
The receptionist's desk was seen through the window, and on the other side of the window was the training area.
It didn't take long for most of the young men who had a crush on the young lady to see the scene of a delinquent-like individual appearing on the receptionist desk.
They stopped their training and warily looked towards the black-haired young man. If he starts to flirt even the slightest, they would throw him out of the dojo.
''Yes?'' She asked with her long eyelashes moving up and down as she blinked.
''I came here to meet...'' The black-haired young man said slowly and grabbed a paper from his pocket, ''Ian and Sean, do their names ring a bell?''
''Yes, why have you come to meet them?'' The young lady asked and knew that they were currently training.
The black-haired young man grinned and leaned closer until his nose was almost touching hers.
The young woman didn't seem fazed as she kept blinking innocently, but the ones who had a crush on her weren't as calm.
Over dozen figures opened the door and rushed out of the training area to surround the black-haired young man.
''What are you doing?!'' They screamed at him, and one of them asked, ''Alena, are you alright?'' Their faces were worried but were surprised to see Alena being calm as ever.
The black-haired young man turned around and leaned on the desk as he asked, ''Ian and Sean, I came to meet you two!''
Two figures in front of the pack were surprised. Ian had short black hair with ordinary brown eyes and an average face.
Sean had brown hair and blue eyes with a tinge of grey on the sides.
Everyone looked confused why the black-haired delinquent came to look at two Outer Disciples.
The black-haired young man cracked his knuckles and grinned as he asked, ''Does a name Elena ring a bell?''
Ian and Sean looked shocked at first before paling considerably.
Everyone saw their weird behavior and wondered who she was.
''You two bullied her because she was uglier than most... And in the end, she tried to take her own life.''
Ian and Sean widened their eyes, even more, making everyone around them certain that the black-haired young man wasn't lying.
The black-haired young man brushed his bangs to the sides and said, ''I found her when she was about to drown, luckily I managed to get her to the hospital before it was too late.'' He stood straight and slowly moved towards Ian and Sean.
''Y-You don't have any proof!'' Ian screeched, which was a wrong decision. Now, everyone was sure that the words were true, and a middle-aged man who heard the commotion looked enraged.
''Ian, Sean...'' The middle-aged man appeared in the doorway and looked murderously towards the two young men.
''M-Master, h-he is lying!'' Sean kneeled and bowed deeply with his face changing colors.
''She told me everything.'' The black-haired young man said, which attracted everyone's attention once again.
''How you guys beat her up... Insulted... Destroyed her property... And lastly... Taking inappropriate pictures of her when she couldn't fight back.'' After finishing words, the amount of disgust filling his face can't be described.
Everyone else also felt incredible disgust towards Ian and Sean.
''Who are you, and why did you come here?'' The Master of the Dojo asked; he had a hunch that the black-haired young man didn't come all the way to here to say those things.
The black-haired young man grinned, and his black eyes had a tinge of lightning flickering.
''My name is Abyss Nightside, and I am here to punish the quilty!'' After his words fell in their ears.
He bursted into motion, and it only took him a split second to arrive next to Ian and Sean.
''Lightning Style, Insanity!'' Abyss moved his hand diagonally and disappeared once again, reappearing on the entrance of the dojo.
Ian and Sean looked dumbfounded until their pupils became white, and they lifelessly fell to the ground.
The Master of Dojo looked shocked as he turned around to see Abyss walking away with his hands in his pockets with a calm smile on his face.
''W-W-What are you?'' He asked, and surprisingly Abyss heard his words.
Abyss turned around and smirked, ''I am the person who will ascend to the Heavens as the Lightning Dragon! Remember my name; this is how the story of Abyss Nightside begins!''
