Shadow finished in the cafeteria and then went to his room. He shut the door and locked it. He took off his shirt and then walked over to his mirror. This was not something he did often so he needed to see what he was doing. He reached down and wrapped his clawed fingers under one of his scales. He gave a tug and a small locket popped out of the gap between his scale and his body. He opened the locket to look at a picture of his parents. He sighed and pulled out the box he kept wrapped from them. It was for his 20th birthday. It was the day they were killed off. He had been away at school and got the present.
